Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Inhibitor TPPU Alleviates Nab-Paclitaxel-Induced Peripheral Neuropathic Pain via Suppressing NF-κB Signalling in the Spinal Cord of a Rat

Figure 1

TPPU alleviated nab-paclitaxel-induced mechanical, heat hypersensitivity, and pathological changes. (a) Schematic diagram of the experimental procedure. Nab-P, nab-paclitaxel; TPPU, N-(1-(1-oxopropy)-4-piperidinyl]-N′-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)-urea; i.p., intraperitoneally; PWT, paw withdrawal mechanical threshold; TWL, thermal withdrawal latency. Blue arrows indicated the timepoint when nab-P was treated on rats, while red arrows indicated when TPPU was treated on rats. (b) PWT and TML of each group (n = 6) at d0, d4, d9, and d14. compared to the control group, # compared to the nab-P group, and & compared with the nab-P group. (c) H and E staining (scale bar = 100 μm) and TEM (scale bar = 5 μm and 1 μm) were used to detect the pathological changes in the spinal cord of a rat.
