Effects of imeglimin on experimental diabetic neuropathy in streptozotocin‐induced diabetic rats
Imeglimin exerted neuroprotective effects in a type 1 diabetic neuropathy model, improving sensory nerve conduction, sciatic nerve blood flow, and intraepidermal nerve fiber density. In vitro, imeglimin promoted neurite outgrowth in a DRG‐derived hybridoma cell line, supporting a direct neurotrophic action.

The structural and functional integrity of peripheral nerves depends on the glial-derived signal desert hedgehog [PDF]
We show that desert hedgehog ( dhh), a signaling molecule expressed by Schwann cells, is essential for the structural and functional integrity of the peripheral nerve.
