pubmed:abstractText
A new prostaglandin E1 analogue (TFC-612) was orally given to streptozocin-diabetic rats for 4 weeks after the induction of diabetes and its effects on motor nerve conduction velocity were studied. The compound significantly prevented a decrease of the velocity but did not reverse abnormal sorbitol and myo-inositol contents of the sciatic nerve. The results suggest that TFC-612 has a potent effect on diabetic nerve dysfunction via other mechanism than the correction of sorbitol and myo-inositol metabolisms and could be a potential compound for therapy of diabetic polyneuropathy.
