Significance
Oxaliplatin (OXA)-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (OIPN) is a high-incidence and dose-dependent adverse reaction with unclear mechanism. Here we employed a data independent acquisition (DIA)-based quantitative proteomic strategy to explore the proteome changes in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) tissues from mice treated by OXA. The findings provided novel insights regarding the mechanisms of OIPN. For example, our data showed that OXA induced a broad disturbance in metabolism, particularly in glycolysis and amino acid metabolism. Additionally, we observed abundance changes of many ion channels and proteins associated with mitochondrial function and reactive oxygen species production. Furthermore, this study provided the first evidence for the possibility of repositioning diroximel fumarate (DRF) for treating OIPN.
