Our results suggest the mechanism for the neuro-protective impact of berbamine, bergapten, and carveol might possibly be arbitrated via COX-2, TNF-α, and NF-κB, and regulated by mitogen-activated protein kinase, ultimately ameliorating STZ-provoked, DM-induced neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration, and associated neuropathic pain. This evidence concerns the gene WNK2 and diabetes mellitus.
