Abstract
This study examined the effects of an aldose reductase inhibitor (CP 45634, Sorbinil, Pfizer, New York, New York) on the neuropathy of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Sorbinil treatment for 4 wk reduced sciatic nerve sorbitol concentration and improved motor nerve conduction velocity in diabetes of 2-9 mo duration. It remains to be determined whether Sorbinil can prevent chronic diabetic neuropathy.Entities:
