Repeated hypoglycemia remodels neural inputs and disrupts mitochondrial function to blunt glucose-inhibited GHRH neuron responsiveness

Hypoglycemia is a frequent complication of diabetes, limiting therapy and increasing morbidity and mortality.With recurrent hypoglycemia, the counterregulatory response (CRR) to decreased blood glucose is blunted, resulting in hypoglycemia-associated autonomic failure (HAAF).The mechanisms leading to these blunted effects are only poorly understood
