Abstract
Chemotherapy is used for the treatment of rapidly growing cell diseases in the body. It is most used for the treatment of different kinds of tumors. It can develop neuropathic pain due to damage of peripheral nerve cells and it is called Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN). In this study, we have reported the protective effects of 4-allyl pyrocatechol (4-APC) and its derivatives from biochemical and functional deficits associated with oxaliplatin (OP) induced neuropathy. The animals were submitted to mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia tests, after treatment with OP three times weekly at 0.20 mg/kg and 4-APC and derivatives (10 mg/kg & 30 mg/kg). The pain parameters were evaluated during the treatment period and at the end of treatment. 4-APC significantly prevented the mice from behavioural and biochemical alterations associated with OP-induced neuropathy. Thus, we conclude from this study, the use of 4-APC and its derivatives with OP might reduce the number of patients who develop painful peripheral neuropathy.
