Article Synopsis
- Some existing medications, like statins, may help treat chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, which is often inadequately managed.
- In experiments with mice, statins were found to reduce the pain response to mechanical stimuli without affecting cold sensations.
- The beneficial effects of statins were linked to the modulation of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) pathway, which plays a role in inflammation and could offer new therapeutic options for managing neuropathy.
