Improvement of Nerve Conduction Velocity in Mutant Diabetic Mice by Aldose Reductase Inhibitor without Affecting Nerve myo-Inositol Content

The sciatic motor nerve conduction velocity of mutant diabetic C57BL/Ks mice was significantly improved from 30.0±1.4 to 38.0±4.6m/s by treatment with the aldose reductase inhibitor 1-[(β-naphthyl)sulfonyl]hydantoin (30 mg/kg/d) for 2 weeks. The treatment, however, did not cause any significant chan...

Zusammenfassung:The sciatic motor nerve conduction velocity of mutant diabetic C57BL/Ks mice was significantly improved from 30.0±1.4 to 38.0±4.6m/s by treatment with the aldose reductase inhibitor 1-[(β-naphthyl)sulfonyl]hydantoin (30 mg/kg/d) for 2 weeks. The treatment, however, did not cause any significant change in myo-inositol concentration in the sciatic nerve. The results indicate that the ameliorating effect of the aldose reductase inhibitor no nerve conduction velocity in mutant diabetic mice is not due to alteration of myo-inositol content in the nerve.
