Periodontal inflammation correlates with systemic inflammation and insulin resistance in patients with recent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes

Background: diabetes and periodontitis are common comorbidities; however, the clinical implications of this association remain only partially known. This study was aimed to characterize the periodontal status of type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients and its correlation with metabolic and inflammatory parameters. Methods: patients (n = 30) with 5 or less years since the diagnosis of T2D (18 – 65 years old) were recruited. Anthropometric (Body Mass Index, BMI), metabolic (fasting glucose, glycated hemoglobin, insulin, HOMA-IR, HDL, LDL and total cholesterol, triglycerides) and inflammatory parameters (ultrasensitive C reactive protein, usCRP) were quantified. Periodontal evaluation included clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), gingival level (GL) and bleeding on probing (BOP) average. Statistical significance was assessed by Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlation tests. Results: mean values of BOP, CAL, PD and GL were 39.3, 2.8, 2.8, and 0.1, respectively. BOP significantly correlated with BMI and HOMA-IR and was higher in patients with elevated usCRP >3 mg/L (p<0.05). Age and duration of T2D directly and inversely correlated with CAL and GL, respectively. BOP correlated with HOMA-IR and usCRP but not with patients´age, duration of T2D or BMI. Conclusions: in patients with recent diagnosis of T2D, BOP is associated with usCRP and HOMA-IR levels, suggesting that periodontal inflammation promotes insulin resistance possibly by increasing systemic inflammation.

Abstract Background To investigate the correlation between the thickness of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL) -6, visfatin, juxtaposed with another zinc finger protein 1 (JAZF1) and type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) macroangiopathy. Methods The study enrolled 82 patients with T2DM with macroangiopathy (the Complication Group), and 85 patients with T2DM (the Diabetes Group) who were admitted to Shandong Provincial Third Hospital from February 2018 to February 2020. In addition, 90 healthy people who underwent physical examination at the same hospital during the same period were enrolled (the Healthy Control Group). Age, gender, height, weight, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), diabetic course and therapeutic drugs, waist hip ratio (WHR), and body mass index (BMI) were recorded and calculated. Results The baseline characteristics of the three groups were comparable, and the diabetic course of the Complication Group and the Diabetes Group was not significantly different (P > 0.05). The WHR of the Complication Group was higher than that of the Diabetes Group and the Healthy Control Group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). The FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, CRP, IL-6, Visfatin, JAZF1, HOMA-IR, EAT thickness, and baPWV of the Complication Group were all higher than those of the Diabetes Group and the Healthy Control Group (P < 0.05, respectively). The JAZF1 and FIns of the Complication Group and Diabetes Group were lower than those of the Healthy Control Group, and JAZF1 of the Complication Group was lower than the Diabetes Group with statistical significance (P<0.05, respectively). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the EAT thickness was positively correlated with CRP, IL-6, visfatin, and JAZF1 (r = 0.387, 0.451, 0.283, 0.301, respectively, all P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis showed that baPWV was positively correlated with EAT thickness, CRP, IL-6, visfatin, and JAZF1 (r = 0.293, 0.382, 0.473, 0.286, respectively, all P < 0.001). Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that FPG, 2hPG, HbA1C, CRP, IL-6, visfatin, JAZF1, and EAT thickness were independent risk factors that affected T2DM macroangiopathy. Conclusions Clinical monitoring and treatment of T2DM macroangiopathy can use CRP, IL-6, Visfatin, JAZF1, and EAT thickness as new targets to delay the progression of the disease. Further research on the relationship between the above factors and the pathogenesis of T2DM macroangiopathy may be helpful provide new treatment strategies.

Homeostatic Model Assessment

Abstract Background and Aims insulin resistance (IR) is a decrease in the biological response of sensitive tissues to insulin. IR is known as an adverse risk factor in cardiovascular disease, which largely determines the prognosis of patients receiving hemodialysis (HD). But this issue is not well understood. For the screening of IR, special indices have been developed that characterize the sensitivity of tissues to insulin. The aim of the study was to compare the methods of screening for IR in patients receiving HD in relation to the markers of systemic inflammation and atherogenic dyslipidemia (AtD). Method 124 patients receiving HD for 75.4 ± 44.5 months were examined including 66 men and 58 women aged 57.6 ± 13.6 years. For IR screening, the Homeostatic Model Assessment-1 and 2 indices (HOMA-1 and HOMA-2), the Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI) and triglycerides / glucose (Tri/G) were used. Patients were examined in accordance with the recommendations of KDIGO. Data analysis was carried out using “STATISTICA 10.0”. Results fasting insulin levels were elevated in 19% of patients. But, the calculated indices were consistent with the idea that IR is much more common. So, the IR index in the HOMA -1 model was increased in 47%, in the HOMA -2 model - in 33%, in the QUICKI model - in 36%, the TriH indicator - in 91%. The sensitivity of peripheral tissues in the HOMA-1 and HOMA-2 models was equally reduced by 35-40%. The results of the correlation analysis between indicators of IR and plasma concentration of C-reactive protein and lipid profile are presented in table 1. Informativeness of IR indicators depending on the presence of obesity is presented in table 2 We were also interested in whether insulin resistance affects the development of clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis, cardiac arrhythmias, and heart failure. An analysis of this relationship did not reveal. Only the IR index in the HOMA-1 model with a value of more than 2.7 units was associated with a 4.5-fold increase in the risk of developing clinical manifestations of atherosclerotic lesions (χ2 = 4.582 p = 0.032). Statistically significant it was only in men. Given our data, perhaps IR is one of the reasons for the higher morbidity and mortality of men at HD. Conclusion a comparison of IR models allows us to distinguish HOMA-2 as the most accurate index. The highest correlation with systemic inflammation and AtD was in the HOMA-1 and HOMA-2 indices.

Inflammatory State

Background : Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus are associated to inflammatory state, which can be set off by the adipose tissue, once it is a metabolically active organ that can cause a chronic mild inflammatory state. Aim : To evaluate the correlation between preoperative C-reactive protein and postoperative complications risk in obese patients (grades II and III) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods : Between 2008 and 2013 were analysed 209 patients (107 with diabetes), presenting body mass index >40 kg/m2or >35 kg/m2with comorbidities. During the postoperative period, two groups were evaluated: with and without complications. Preoperative ultra-sensitive C-reactive protein was measured by immunonephelometry method. Results : Complications occurred in seven patients (pulmonary thromboembolism, fistula, two cases of suture leak, pancreatitis, evisceration and upper digestive hemorrhage). No statistical significance was found regarding lipid profile and C-reactive protein between patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus. When compared to each other, both groups (with and without complications) presented with statistical significance regarding C-reactive protein level (7,2 mg/dl vs 3,7 mg/dl, p=0,016) and had similar weight loss percentage after 3, 6 and 12 months follow-up. Conclusions : Preoperative C-reactive protein serum level was higher in the group which presented complications after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass when compared to the group without postoperative complications.

Intracellular Hsp70

Recent evidence shows divergence between the concentrations of extracellular 70 kDa heat shock protein [eHSP70] and its intracellular concentrations [iHSP70] in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). A vital aspect regarding HSP70 physiology is its versatility to induce antagonistic actions, depending on the location of the protein. For example, iHSP70 exerts a powerful anti-inflammatory effect, while eHSP70 activates proinflammatory pathways. Increased eHSP70 is associated with inflammatory and oxidative stress conditions, whereas decreased iHSP70 levels are related to insulin resistance in skeletal muscle. Serum eHSP70 concentrations are positively correlated with markers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein, monocyte count, and TNF-α, while strategies to enhance iHSP70 (e.g., heat treatment, chemical HSP70 inducers or coinducers, and physical exercise) are capable of reducing the inflammatory profile and the insulin resistance state. Here, we present recent findings suggesting that imbalances in the HSP70 status, described by the [eHSP70]/[iHSP70] ratio, may be determinant to trigger a chronic proinflammatory state that leads to insulin resistance and T2DM development. This led us to hypothesize that changes in this ratio value could be used as a biomarker for the management of the inflammatory response in insulin resistance and diabetes.

Objective Whereas insulin resistance is expressed as reduced glucose uptake in peripheral tissues, the relationship between insulin resistance and brain glucose metabolism remains controversial. Our aim was to examine the association of insulin resistance and brain glucose uptake (BGU) during a euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp in a large sample of subjects across a wide range of age and insulin sensitivity. Research Design and Methods [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) data from 194 subjects scanned under clamp conditions were compiled from a single-center cohort. BGU was quantified by the fractional uptake rate. We examined the association of age, sex, M value from the clamp, steady-state insulin and free fatty acids levels, C-reactive protein, HbA1c, and presence of type 2 diabetes with BGU using Bayesian hierarchical modeling. Results Insulin sensitivity, indexed by the M value, was associated negatively with BGU in all brain regions, confirming that in insulin resistant subjects BGU is enhanced during euglycemic hyperinsulinemia. In addition, the presence of type 2 diabetes was associated with a further increase in BGU. On the contrary, age was negatively related to BGU. Steady-state insulin levels, C-reactive protein, free fatty acids, sex, and HbA1c were not associated with BGU. Conclusions In this large cohort of subjects of either sex across a wide range of age and insulin sensitivity, insulin sensitivity is the best predictor of brain glucose uptake.
