Estimation of Na\K - ATPase Enzyme Activity and Endogenous Digitalis in Patients with Diabetic Neuropathy
Eman Hameed Al-Rikabi , Mazin J. Mousa , Oda M. Yasser
Abstract
Background: Among the most common complications of diabetes is diabetic neuropathy (DN). Diabetic neuropathy is
a heterogeneous group of disorders, which involves a different part of somatic and autonomic nervous systems, with a
gradual loss of neural conductivity. Some studies have shown that they reduce the activity of the Na/K ATPase, however,
elevated levels of endogenous sodium pump inhibitor in diabetic individuals, including those with neuropathy. Changes
in this transfer enzyme are believed to be due to several diabetes complications.
