Dietary capsaicin normalizes CGRP peptidergic DRG neurons in experimental diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Abstract Diabetic sensory neuropathy leads to impairment of peripheral sensory nerves and downregulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in a functionally specific subset of peripheral sensory neurons mediating pain. Whether CGRP plays a neuroprotective role in peripheral sensory nerve is...
