“…Axonal degeneration, segmental demyelination, or both may occur in the afflicted nerves. In addition, peripheral neuropathy can result in excessive myelin and axon loss [ 5 ]. Toxic chemotherapeutic agents are one of the forms of PNI [ 6 ].…”

“…Potentiating nerve injury causes a direct change in bone–nerve interaction and loss of bone mineral density (BMD) [ 22 , 23 ]. Direct effects of nerve injury on BMD are difficult to prove since the sciatic nerve constriction causes immobilization, paralysis, and a decrease in mechanical loading, all of which reduce bone mineral density [ 5 , 24 , 25 ].…”

Peripheral nerve injuries significantly impact patients’ quality of life and poor functional recovery. Chitosan–ufasomes (CTS–UFAs) exhibit biomimetic features, making them a viable choice for developing novel transdermal delivery for neural repair. This study aimed to investigate the role of CTS–UFAs loaded with the propranolol HCl (PRO) as a model drug in enhancing sciatica in cisplatin-induced sciatic nerve damage in rats. Hence, PRO–UFAs were primed, embedding either span 20 or 60 together with oleic acid and cholesterol using a thin-film hydration process based on full factorial design (24). The influence of formulation factors on UFAs’ physicochemical characteristics and the optimum formulation selection were investigated using Design-Expert® software. Based on the optimal UFA formulation, PRO–CTS–UFAs were constructed and characterized using transmission electron microscopy, stability studies, and ex vivo permeation. In vivo trials on rats with a sciatic nerve injury tested the efficacy of PRO–CTS–UFA and PRO–UFA transdermal hydrogels, PRO solution, compared to normal rats. Additionally, oxidative stress and specific apoptotic biomarkers were assessed, supported by a sciatic nerve histopathological study. PRO–UFAs and PRO–CTS–UFAs disclosed entrapment efficiency of 82.72 ± 2.33% and 85.32 ± 2.65%, a particle size of 317.22 ± 6.43 and 336.12 ± 4.9 nm, ζ potential of −62.06 ± 0.07 and 65.24 ± 0.10 mV, and accumulatively released 70.95 ± 8.14% and 64.03 ± 1.9% PRO within 6 h, respectively. Moreover, PRO–CTS–UFAs significantly restored sciatic nerve structure, inhibited the cisplatin-dependent increase in peripheral myelin 22 gene expression and MDA levels, and further re-established sciatic nerve GSH and CAT content. Furthermore, they elicited MBP re-expression, BCL-2 mild expression, and inhibited TNF-α expression. Briefly, our findings proposed that CTS–UFAs are promising to enhance PRO transdermal delivery to manage sciatic nerve damage.

This review explores diverse infectious etiologies of peripheral nervous system (PNS) dysfunction, spanning sensory and motor neurons, nerves, and associated structures. Progress in viral and bacterial infections reveals multifaceted mechanisms underlying neuropathies, including viral neurotoxicity and immune-mediated responses. Latest diagnostic advances facilitate early PNS complication detection, with ongoing research offering promising treatment avenues. Emerging pathogens like severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Zika virus, and EV-D68 highlight the evolving infectious neuropathy paradigm. Recognizing characteristic patterns and integrating clinical factors are pivotal for precise diagnosis and tailored intervention. Challenges persist in assessment and management due to varied pathogenic mechanisms. Advancements in understanding pathogenesis have improved targeted therapies, yet gaps remain in effective treatments. Ongoing research is crucial for optimizing approaches and improving patient outcomes.
