Description

Hui Li, Ruhui Liu, Junyan Liu, and Yi Qu review a diabetes drug for brain and nerve diseases in a 2024 paper. The drug, metformin, comes from a plant source and is used for many ills. Brain and nerve diseases are a vast burden, touching about one sixth of all people.

The review tracks how the drug crosses into the brain and may spur the birth of new nerve cells. It then walks through the drug's effects in disorders of both the central and outer nerve systems. The authors sum up the paths by which the drug may help in each case. Their aim is to guide more study and sound use in nerve care.
