| Abstract | Microtubule targeting agents (MTAs) often lead to treatment limiting and life threatening side effects, including chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The frequency of severe CIPN varies among different MTAs. Since the microtubule binding interactions and mechanisms of action also vary among MTAs, we hypothesized that these distinct mechanisms may underlie the variability in frequency of severe CIPN. Using a two-week, maximum tolerated dose model, we morphologically and biochemically analyzed sciatic nerves from mice treated with either paclitaxel or eribulin. These drugs differ in their manner of microtubule binding and mechanisms of action and reports indicate paclitaxel also induces a higher frequency of severe CIPN than does eribulin. Morphologically, paclitaxel increased the frequency of observed signs of axon degeneration more significantly than did eribulin. Alternatively, eribulin but not paclitaxel induced occasional myelin “halo” structures. Biochemically, paclitaxel, and eribulin both induced α-tubulin expression (~1.9- and ~2.5-fold, respectively) and tubulin acetylation, a marker for microtubule stability, (~5- and ~11.7-fold, respectively). Eribulin but not paclitaxel-induced EB1 expression ~2.2-fold while paclitaxel but not eribulin mildly suppressed EB3 expression. Both EB proteins are associated with microtubule growth. Eribulin’s combination of relatively mild deleterious morphological effects coupled with more potent biochemical changes promoting microtubule stability and growth in mice correlate with lower frequencies of severe CIPN in humans. We suggest that these eribulin-induced effects create a relatively stable microtubule network that compensates, in part, for the toxic anti-cancer effects of the drug, leading to fewer reported incidences of CIPN than for paclitaxel. |

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.
