Metabolomic signature of type 1 diabetes-induced sensory loss and nerve damage in diabetic neuropathy [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Diabetic-induced peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a diabetic late complication. The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of nerve damage & sensory loss remain largely unclear. Recently, alterations in metabolic flux have gained attention a basis for organ damage in diabetes; however, peripheral sensory neurons have not been adequately ...
