A sympathetic view on free radicals in diabetes. Neuropathies are severe complications of diabetes. In this issue of Neuron, Campanucci et al. report that hyperglycemia-induced elevation of reactive oxygen species impairs synaptic transmission of sympathetic neurons leading to diabetes-induced dysautonomias. These observations provide new insights into the etiology of diabetic complications and suggest potential novel therapeutic approaches for neuropathies.
