Cyanocobalamin prevents cardiomyopathy in type 1 diabetes by modulating oxidative stress and DNMT-SOCS1/3-IGF-1 signaling

Kakoki et al report a role for cyanocobalamin (B12) in preventing cardiomyopathy in type 1 diabetic mice, by reducing levels of reactive oxygen species and restoring IGF-1 levels via DNMT-SOCS1/3 signalling. The authors therefore propose B12 as a promising option to prevent diabetic cardiomyopathy t...
