Reference | Type of Nerve Lesion and Animal Model | Description and Timing of the Diet |
---|---|---|
Ketogenic Diet | ||
Li et al., 2020 [22] | Sciatic nerve crush (Sprague–Dawley rats) |
65.8% fat, 3.0% carbohydrate, and 18.1% protein for 8 weeks after injury |
Mayr et al., 2020 [23] | Transection of the common peroneal and tibial nerves in mouse (C57/BL6 mice) |
75.1% fat, 3.2% carbohydrates, and 8.6% protein for 7 days before injury and up to 28 day after injury |
Liśkiewicz et al., 2016 [24] | Sciatic nerve crush (Wistar rats) |
79% fat, 0.8% carbohydrates, and 9.5% protein for 6 weeks after injury. Preconditioned group received KD also for 3 weeks before injury |
Caloric restriction | ||
De Angelis et al., 2020 [25] | Chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve in mouse (CD1 male mice 12 months old) |
40% less of daily consumption for 7 days after CCI |
Coccurello et al., 2018 [26] | Chronic constriction injury (CCI) of sciatic nerve (Wild-type CD1 male mice, Ambra1+ transgenic CD1 male mice) |
40% less of daily consumption for 7 days after CCI |
High-fat diet | ||
Song et al., 2018 [27] | Plantar incision (Long-Evans rats) |
40% fat administrated with different timing: a group received a high-fat diet for 6 weeks before injury and 2 weeks after, another group was fed with high-fat diet for 7 weeks and then switched back to standard diet for 2 weeks before to plantar incision, while in the last group, only male rats were switched to high-fat diet 1 week before injury |
Bekar et al., 2014 [28] | Sciatic nerve crush injury (Sprague–Dawley rats) |
40% fat for 3 months (started before injury and ended 4 weeks after injury) |
