Abstract
These results suggest that although insulin can effectively control glycemic levels, it does not completely alter the pathological changes in erectile tissues. Better efficacy could be expected with tight glycemic control plus ALT-711, an AGEs cross-link breaker. The combination therapy might have the potential to eliminate metabolic memory by down-regulating the AGEs-RAGE oxidative stress axis. Wang L, Tian W, Uwais Z, Li G, Li H, Guan R, Gao Z, and Xin Z. AGE-breaker ALT-711 plus insulin could restore erectile function in streptozocin-induced type 1 diabetic rats. J Sex Med 2014;11:1452-1462.
