Paclitaxel induces peripheral neuropathy as a side effect of cancer treatment. The underlying causes are unclear, but epidermal, unmyelinated axons have been shown to be the first to degenerate. We previously utilized anzebrafish model to show that the epidermal matrix-metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13) ...
It is now clear that distal symmetrical sensory neuropathy is caused predominantly by the ART's neurotoxic effect but may also be caused by the HIV itself.With a sizeable morbidity, the neuropathic pain caused by distal symmetrical sensory neuropathy is very difficult to manage; it is often ...
Peripheral neuropathy is caused by abnormal nerve functioning (i.e. the failure of nerves to carry information to and from the brain and spinal cord) due to various etiologies. These disorders can originate from causes such as diabetes, alcoholism, HIV, toxin exposure, metabolic abnormalities, ...
Damage to a single peripheral nerve is called mononeuropathy. Physical injury or trauma, such as from an accident, is the most common cause. Pressure on a nerve for a long time, caused by being sedentary for extended periods (such as sitting in a wheelchair or lying in bed), or continuou...

Peripheral neuropathies are among the most common inherited neurologic diseases. Neuropathy may be the key feature of an inherited disease or overshadowed by the other manifestations of a syndrome. Inherited demyelinating neuropathies are usually caused by mutations in genes expressed by myelinating ...

neuropathy. The ulnar nerve is commonly entrapped at the elbow. The peroneal nerve is exposed to the outer part of the knee. The pudendal nerve can cause pain in the perineum and is relieved by sitting on a toilet seat or an inflatable donut. Entrapment of the lateral femoral cutaneous ...
A 20-year-old man developed over three weeks a sensory and painful neuropathy associated with diffuse alopecia. There was motor weakness, and superficial and deep hypoesthesia of the inferior limbs. Deep tendon reflexes were normal. Electrophysiological study mainly showed axonal motor neuropathy. This...
