Characterization of Mice Ubiquitously Overexpressing Human 15-Lipoxygenase-1: Effect of Diabetes on Peripheral Neuropathy and Treatment with Menhaden Oil

Figure 4

Treatment with menhaden oil of type 2 diabetic wild-type and 15-LOX-1 transgenic mice: effect on corneal nerve fiber length and intraepidermal density. Corneal nerve fiber length and intraepidermal nerve fiber density were examined as described in Section 2. The number of mice in each group was the same as described in Table 1. Data are presented as the in mm/mm² and profiles/mm for corneal nerve fiber length and intraepidermal nerve fiber density, respectively. compared to their respective control mice; compared to respective untreated diabetic mice.
