Neuritic Sympathetic Dystrophy in the SMG-CG of db/db Type 2 Diabetic Mice

Mouse n Weight (gm) Blood glucose (mg%) SMG-CG dystrophy (no. dystrophic neurites/ no. neuron)
Control 3 30.5 ± 1.0 100 ± 10 0.11 ± 0.1
Diabetic 4 42.5 ± 1.6 453 ± 44 0.14 ± 0.03

The frequency of neuritic dystrophy is shown in male db/db mice diabetic for 5 months before sacrifice and age-matched littermate controls (db/m). Values represent means ± SEM for “n” mice.
