Article Synopsis
- Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) may damage the median nerve in the hands, affecting handwriting, and is linked to genetic factors, specifically ALR polymorphisms and serum PKC-δ levels.
- A study involving 100 DPN patients, 100 individuals with diabetes but no neuropathy, and 100 healthy controls found that specific ALR genetic variants were associated with a higher risk of developing DPN and increased levels of PKC-δ in the bloodstream.
- The identification of these genetic variants and PKC-δ levels could serve as early indicators for diabetic neuropathy in the Egyptian population, potentially allowing for timely interventions before handwriting abilities decline.
