Hyperglycemia‐ and neuropathy‐induced changes in mitochondria within sensory nerves [PDF]
Objective This study focused on altered mitochondrial dynamics as a potential mechanism for diabetic peripheral neuropathy ( DPN ). We employed both an in vitro sensory neuron model and an in situ analysis of human intraepidermal nerve fibers ( IENF s ...

Diabetic polyneuropathy affects 30–50% of patients with diabetes mellitus. It encompasses several neuropathic syndromes, the commonest being distal symmetrical polyneuropathy or ‘diabetic peripheral neuropathy’ (DPN). Risk factors for DPN include poor glycaemic control and drivers of macrovascular disease including hypertension.

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

Murine models of human neuropathic pain [PDF]
Neuropathic pain refers to pain that originates from pathology of the nervous system. Diabetes, infection (herpes zoster), nerve compression, nerve trauma, and autoimmune diseases are examples of diseases that may cause neuropathic pain. Unfortunately no

Vitamin B12 and diabetic neuropathies
Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin, cobalamin) is an essential cofactor in two important biochemical pathways: methylmalonic acid metabolism and methionine synthesis from homocysteine.

A review on the investigation of peripheral neuropathy at Mater Dei Hospital [PDF]
The term peripheral neuropathy encompasses a wide range of disorders. The underlying causes of peripheral neuropathy are diverse. It is very difficult to ascertain the incidence of peripheral neuropathy with any degree of certainty, but it is a ...
