“…HDAC6 is predominantly a cytosolic deacetylase that deacetylates nonhistone proteins, including tubulin and heat shock proteins, ultimately regulating processes, such as intracellular protein trafficking and degradation ( Hubbert et al, 2002 ; Bali et al, 2005 ). Consequently, HDAC6 inhibitors restore axonal mitochondrial content and function after treatment with cisplatin or vincristine ( Krukowski et al, 2017 ; Van Helleputte et al, 2018 ; Ma et al, 2019 ; J. Zhang et al, 2022 ). In contrast to other agents that suppress CIPN in preclinical models (for review, see Flatters et al, 2017 ), a 2 week course of dosing with an HDAC6 inhibitor persistently reverses peripheral neuropathy induced by cisplatin and paclitaxel ( Krukowski et al, 2017 ; Ma et al, 2019 ; J. Zhang et al, 2022 ).…”
