Abstract:
The pathogenesis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is not illustrated clearly nowadays, and there are several hypotheses. Oxidative stress response is penetrated in several different hypotheses as the formation of advanced glycosylation end products, polyhydric alcohol metabolic pathway, protein kinase C activation and microvascular lesion, etc. The influence of oxidative stress on DPN and the current status of anti-oxidation therapy by using integrative traditional and Western medicine were reviewed in this paper.
