Effects of Gymnema sylvestre (GS) leaf extract on the hematoxylin and eosin histopathological sections (magnification, ×200) of sciatic nerves in diabetic rats. Arrows indicate (A) near normal nerve tissue with no degenerative or inflammatory changes in control non-diabetic rats; (B) axonal and lipid degenerated axons with mild focal peripheral axonal loss in diabetic untreated rats; (C) lipoid degeneration of the axons and mild focal peripheral axonal loss in GS50 group; and (D) minimal axonal degenerative changes without a regenerative feature in the GS100 group.
