Abstract
Neuropathy induced by chemotherapeutic drugs is a significant complication in the treatment of cancer and other diseases. The neuropathy induced by chemotherapeutic drugs is frequently painful and can require discontinuation of therapy. Several in vitro and in vivo models of chemotherapeutic drug-induced neuropathy are available. These models can be used to study potential treatments for drug-induced neuropathy and to study the mechanisms that produce this neuropathy.
