Is resistance to ischaemia of motor axons in diabetic subjects due to membrane depolarization? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The reasons for the resistance to ischaemia of peripheral nerves in diabetics are not well understood. We have now explored whether axonal depolarization underlies this phenomenon, as has previously been proposed.

Comparison of complications in diabetic outpatients with or without mental illness

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and psychiatric illness are related in many ways by prevalence, burden, course, and outcome. Co-morbid mental illness may play a role in determining the complication in diabetic patients.

Rate of neuropathic progression in hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy and other peripheral neuropathies: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2021
Background We aimed to compare neuropathic progression rate between hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) and other peripheral neuropathies, including diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT)

Differential binding patterns of anti-sulfatide antibodies to glial membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sulfatide is a major glycosphingolipid in myelin and a target for autoantibodies in autoimmune neuropathies. However neuropathy disease models have not been widely established, in part because currently available monoclonal antibodies to sulfatide may ...

A survey of offloading practices for diabetes‐related plantar neuropathic foot ulcers

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2014
Background Offloading is key to preventing or healing plantar neuropathic foot ulcers in diabetes. Total contact casts or walkers rendered irremovable are recommended in guidelines as first‐line options for offloading, however the use of such devices has

Schwann cell mitochondrial metabolism supports long-term axonal survival and peripheral nerve function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a common cause of peripheral neuropathies. While the role of neuron and axonal mitochondria in peripheral nerve disease is well appreciated, whether Schwann cell (SC) mitochondrial deficits contribute to peripheral ...
