Expression Data for Cisplatin Treated Dorsal Root Ganglia from A/J and C57BL/6J Mice

Peripheral sensory neuropathy is a common complication to cisplatin treatment in cancer patients. Multiple signaling pathways are likely to be implicated in the pathophysiology, there are no explicit treatments and little is known about predictive factors associated with the onset or progression of cisplatin induced peripheral neuropathy. The transcriptional profiles of differentially senesitive strains of dorsal root ganglion across two inbreed strain of mice will promote better understanding of progression and risk factors assocciated with cisplatin induced peripheral neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy was induced with a bi-weekly treatment of 4mg/kg cisplatin. We used microarrays to detail the transciptional profile underlying cisplatin induced peirperal neuropathy in two differentailly sensitve inbreed strains of mice: A/J and C57BL/6J L4-L5 dorsal root ganglia from untreated, vehicle treated and cisplatin treated mice for one and four weeks from A/J and C57BL/6J mice
