Muscone ameliorates diabetic peripheral neuropathy through activating AKT/mTOR signalling pathway

Objectives Emerging evidence showed that muscone could improve chronic inflammation after myocardial infarction and protect alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. However, the function of muscone on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is obscure. Methods The neuronal Schwann cell RSC 96 cells were treated with 125 mmol/l glucose to simulate the cells in DPN. The RSC 96 cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8. The RSC 96...
