Figure 6.

(a) PDHK inhibitor, DCA (IP 100 mg/kg), reversed bortezomib-induced allodynia on day 10 (bortezomib vs. vehicle ###P < 0.0001, bortezomib →vehicle vs. bortezomib→DCA ****P < 0.0001, five mice/group). (b) Intrathecal (IT) administration of siRNA that targets PDHK1 reversed bortezomib-induced CIPN (Bor vs. Veh ###P < 0.0001, Bor → IT PDHK1 siRNA and Bor → IT Cont siRNA ****P < 0.0001, five mice/group). (c) Knockdown of PDHK1 in L4-6 DRGs was confirmed (*P = 0.02, ***P = 0.0002, five mice/group). (d) Intrathecal siRNA administration did not alter the expression of PDHK1 in the L4-6 spinal cord. Veh: vehicle; Bor: bortezomib; DCA: dichloroacetate; BL: baseline IT: intrathecal; Cont: control; PDHK1: pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1.
