Subjects with dietary obesity and pre-diabetes have an increased risk for developing both nerve conduction slowing and small sensory fiber neuropathy. Animal models of this type of neuropathy have not been described. This study evaluated neuropathic changes and their amenability to dietary and pharmacological interventions in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), a model of pre-diabetes and alimentary obesity.
