Evaluation of effect of Nerium oleander against STZ induced diabetic neuropathy rat model by reducing NF-κB pathway

Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a chronic diabetic complication, which is difficult to manage. The current investigation evaluates the effect of Nerium oleander (NO) in the management of diabetic neuropathy (DN). Diabetic neuropathy was induced by streptozotocin (STZ) [60 mg/kg, i.p.] and treated ...

Dexmedetomidine attenuates P2X4 and NLRP3 expression in the spine of rats with diabetic neuropathic pain

Acta cir. bras; 34 (11), 2019
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the effects of Dexmedetomidine (Dex) on spinal pathology and inflammatory factor in a rat model of Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP). Methods: The rats were divided into 3 groups (eight in each group): normal group (N group), diabetic neuropathic pain model group (DNP group)...

A curcumin derivative J147 ameliorates diabetic peripheral neuropathy in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DPN rat models through negative regulation AMPK on TRPA1

Acta cir. bras; 33 (6), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the specific molecular mechanisms and effects of curcumin derivative J147 on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Methods: We constructed streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DPN rat models to detected mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) in vivo using Von Frey filaments. I...

Exogenous neuregulin-1 attenuates STZ-induced diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain in rats

Acta cir. bras; 32 (1), 2017
Abstract Purpose: To investigate whether modulating NRG1 could attenuate diabetic neuropathic pain and analyze the underlying mechanism. Methods: Male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, diabetic group, NRG1 intervention group. After STZ-induced 2 weeks, NRG1 intervention daily for consec...

Papel das citocinas inflamatórias na nefropatia diabética

A nefropatia diabética consiste na principal causa de doença renal terminal e está associada a um risco aumentado de doença cardiovascular. O estudo dos mecanismos responsáveis pelo desenvolvimento da nefropatia diabética possui extrema importância, já que pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento d...
