Abstract

Significance: Axon degeneration is caused by multiple chemotherapeutic agents and is a hallmark of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is associated with the loss of the essential metabolite nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ), a vital metabolite involved in energy homeostasis, but whether NAD + loss or the accumulation of an NAD + precursor, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), is responsible for axon degeneration is controversial. We found that axon degeneration caused by vincristine, a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, could be ameliorated by forcing peripheral neurons to use an NAD + biosynthetic pathway that bypasses NMN formation. This strategy provides an approach for preventing CIPN.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
