| Abstract | The ubiquitin-dependent proteasome system (UPS) is the major pathway responsible for selective nuclear and cytoplasmic protein degradation. Bortezomib, a boronic acid dipeptide, is a reversible 20S proteasome inhibitor used as novel anticancer drug, particularly in the treatment of multiple myeloma and certain lymphomas. Bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN) is a widely recognized dose-limiting neurotoxicity of this proteasome inhibitor, which causes a significant negative impact on the quality of life. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying bortezomib neurotoxicity are little known. In this study a rat was used as our animal model to investigate the bortezomib-induced nuclear changes in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons. Our results indicate that this neuronal population is an important target of bortezomib neurotoxicity. Nuclear changes include accumulation of ubiquitin–protein conjugates, reduction of transcriptional activity, and nuclear retention of poly(A) RNAs in numerous spherical or ring-shaped dense granules. They also contained the RNA-binding proteins PABPN1 (poly(A) binding protein nuclear 1) and Sam68, but lacked the mRNA nuclear export factors REF and Y14. At the cytoplasmic level, most neurons exhibited chromatolysis, supporting the inhibition of mRNA translation. Our results indicate that bortezomib interferes with transcription, nuclear processing and transport, and cytoplasmic translation of mRNAs in DRG neurons. They also support that this neuronal dysfunction is an essential pathogenic mechanism in the BIPN, which is characterized by sensory impairment including sensory ataxia. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
