The choroid plexus, located in the brain ventricles, spreads peripheral inflammatory reactions into the brain. Our study is the first to analyze the effects of paclitaxel on inflammatory alterations in the choroid plexus. We hypothesized that the choroid plexus could respond <i>directly</i> to paclitaxel and simultaneously be <i>indirectly</i> altered via circulating damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) produced by paclitaxel application. Using immunohistochemical and Western blot analysis, we examined the levels of toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) and formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2), along with the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin 6 (IL6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in choroid plexus epithelial cells of male Wistar rats following paclitaxel treatment. Moreover, we utilized an <i>in vitro</i> model of choroid plexus epithelial cells, the Z310 cells, to investigate the changes in these cells in response to paclitaxel and DAMPs (CpG ODN). Our results demonstrate that paclitaxel increases TLR9 and FPR2 levels in the choroid plexus while inducing IL6 and TNFα upregulation in both acute and chronic manners. <i>In vitro</i> experiments further revealed that paclitaxel <i>directly</i> interacts with epithelial cells of the choroid plexus, leading to increased levels of TLR9, FPR2, IL6, and TNFα. Additionally, treatment of cells with CpG ODN, an agonist of TLR9, elicited upregulation of IL6 and TNFα. Our findings determined that paclitaxel influences the choroid plexus through both <i>direct</i> and <i>indirect</i> mechanisms, resulting in inflammatory profile alterations.

This triangular relationship can be attributed to the dysfunction of the insulin receptor signaling system (IRSS) in both central and peripheral systems. Patients with T2D are essentially more susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection due to the widespread expression of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) in their pancreatic beta cells, which serves as the cellular port for the SARS-CoV-2 to infect and enter the cell. This infection can exacerbate chronic pain and insulin resistance for various reasons. Peripherally, once infected, the virus can cause damage to peripheral nerves and pancreatic β-cells, further exacerbating pain and glucose metabolism conditions. Additionally, in the central nervous system, dysfunctional IRSS is closely linked to chronic pain. Over the past few years of the COVID-19 pandemic, an increasing body of evidence suggests that insulin and other medications currently used in clinical practice for hyperglycemia control may not be safe for treating these patients. Therefore, we need a proper approach for the treatment of chronic pain in long COVID patients, especially patients with T2D.

Through a case study, we illustrate the real-world implications of this vicious cycle perpetuating both conditions. We call for a paradigm shift in pain and stress management, advocating for a holistic management strategy encompassing pharmacological, psychological, and lifestyle interventions that address the underlying biopsychosocial factors.
