Abstract. The aim of the study was to investigate insulin resistance in patients with pancreatic and colorectal cancer diagnosed in people with type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods. 64 patients were examined. They were divided into the following groups: group I – healthy people (control group) (n = 16); group II – patients with type 2 diabetes without cancer (n = 28); group IIIa – patients with type 2 diabetes with pancreatic cancer (n = 10), group IIIb – patients with type 2 diabetes with colorectal cancer (n = 10). The study involved patients from specialized departments of the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Hospital and the Precarpathian Clinical Oncology Center. Blood insulin levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, using Insulin ELISA diagnostic kits, EIA-2935. Fasting blood glucose was determined by glucose oxidase method. Compensation for diabetes was assessed by the level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and determined by ion exchange chromatography. Data analysis was performed using Statistica 12.0 (StatSoft Inc., USA). Differences between the values in the comparison groups were determined by Student’s t-test and were considered significant at P < 0.05. Results. Patients with type 2 diabetes who were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer or colorectal cancer were older, compared with patients with type 2 diabetes without cancer (P < 0.05). Obesity was diagnosed in patients with colorectal cancer of group IIIb, their BMI was higher in comparison with patients of group IIIa who suffered from pancreatic cancer (P < 0.05). BMI in patients of group IIIa was lower than in control group (P < 0.05), in patients of group II (P < 0.05) and in patients of group IIIb with colorectal cancer (P < 0.05). Compared with patients of group II, patients with pancreatic and colorectal cancer had significantly lower insulin levels (P < 0.05), but significantly higher fasting blood glucose levels (P < 0.05). Insulin resistance according to the HOMA-IR index (> 3.0) was detected in both types of cancer. The HOMA-IR index in patients with pancreatic cancer was significantly lower than in patients of group II (P < 0.05). The level of HbA1c in patients with type 2 diabetes without cancer and in patients with cancer diagnosed on the background of diabetes did not differ significantly (P > 0.05). Prior to cancer detection, the same number of patients (50.0%) received metformin-free therapy in both the pancreatic cancer group and the colorectal cancer group. However, the duration of diabetes in patients with pancreatic cancer was 2.90 ± 2.60 years and was significantly shorter than in patients with colorectal cancer 9.70 ± 5.66 (P < 0.05). 80.0% of patients in group IIIa had a history of diabetes less than 5 years, and 80.0% of patients in group IIIb – more than 5 years. Conclusions: 1.In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with pancreatic cancer, as well as in patients with colorectal cancer, insulin resistance was detected by the HOMA-IR index, which depended on the combined effect of insulin and hyperglycemia in patients with colorectal cancer and on the fasting blood glucose in patients with pancreatic cancer. 2. The absence of hyperinsulinemia, the short duration of type 2 diabetes in patients with pancreatic cancer may be indirect evidence of cancer induced pancreatogenic diabetes (T3cDM) in the majority of patients of this group. For elderly patients with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus without obesity, without hyperinsulinemia, screening for pancreatic cancer is recommended.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), accounts for more than 90% of the total number of diabetes mellitus cases and often occurs in middle-aged and elderly people. Objective: To investigate the effect of exercise intervention on insulin resistance in obese type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Eighty-six obese diabetic patients were screened as experimental subjects in physical examinations and randomly divided into observation and control groups. Visceral fat volume, fasting blood glucose, and fasting insulin of all subjects were measured before and after completion of the 6-month experimental implementation. The insulin resistance was calculated for both groups and the values for each indicator were compared statistically between groups. Results: Control of body weight, body mass index, blood glucose, blood lipids and insulin resistance index were better in the observation group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Basal intervention with quantitative exercise can significantly improve insulin resistance in obese type 2 diabetes patients and the effect is better than treatment with diet and conventional exercise. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.

Type 2 Dm

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder, treated by insulin and oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHA). Despite treatment, to protect diabetic population from its complications is difficult. So, there is a need for an OHA with different mechanism of action and minimal side effects. Bromocriptine Mesylate QR (Quick release) formulation was approved by FDA for treatment of type 2 DM. Hence, this study was planned to highlight the usefulness of Bromocriptine QR in type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: Total 140 patients with type 2 DM were randomized into two groups. The control group was treated with Metformin 500 mg BD (twice daily) and Glipizide 5 mg BD for a period of 3 months. The study group received Bromocriptine quick release 1.6 mg once daily, metformin 500 mg BD and Glipizide 5 mg BD for a period of 3 months. In both control and study groups, fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose was monitored at 0, 1st, 2nd and 3rd month. HbA1C was done at baseline and at the end of 3 months.Results: There was statistically significant decrease in fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose and HbA1C when compared to baseline in both control group (p <0.05) and study group (p <0.05) at the end of 3 months. But the decrease in FBS, PPBS, HbA1C was higher in the study group (p=0.0001) than the control group (p=0.001).Conclusions: In type 2 DM patients, Bromocriptine QR, combined with metformin and Glipizide reduced fasting and postprandial blood glucose and HbA1C significantly compared to metformin and glipizide alone.

Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of coenzyme Q10 for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods. Data from randomized controlled trials were obtained to assess the effects of coenzyme Q10 versus placebo or western medicine on patients with T2DM. The study’s registration number is CRD42018088474. The primary outcomes included glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, and fasting insulin. Result. Thirteen trials involving 765 patients were included. Compared with the control group, coenzyme Q10 may decrease the HbA1c (WMD −0.29; 95% CI −0.54, −0.03; P=0.03) and the fasting blood glucose (WMD −11.21; 95% CI −18.99, −3.43; P=0.005). For fasting insulin, there is also not strong evidence that confirms which one is better because there was no statistical difference (WMD −0.48; 95% CI −2.54, 1.57; P=0.65). Conclusion. Based on current evidence, coenzyme Q10 may assist glycemic control, decrease TG, and improve HDL-C in patients with T2DM.

Orexin A

Background: Orexin-A is an orexigenic hormone that plays an important role in the metabolism of blood glucose, insulin, and insulin resistance (IR). The pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is related to the abnormality in insulin and IR. However, no sufficient studies to date have clearly shown the association of orexin-A with biochemical parameters related to T2DM. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the relation of orexin-A with IR and how they associate with physiological changes in T2DM patients. Understanding this relation will offer some pharmacological tools to reduce some complications in diabetes. Materials and Methods: A total of 41 T2DM and 43 non-DM subjects, aged between 40-60 years with body mass index (BMI) ≤25 kg/m2, participated in the present study. Fasting serum orexin-A, IR, fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), lipid profile, liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST)), nitric oxide (NO), and malondialdehyde (MDA) parameters were evaluated. Orexin-A was evaluated by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). For statistical analysis, GraphPad Prism 7.0 and SPSS version 24.0 programs were used. Results: Orexin-A was positively correlated with blood pressure, FBG, HbA1c, insulin, and IR but inversely related to insulin sensitivity (IS), leptin, and gender. Stepwise multiple regression presented HOMA-IR, diastolic blood pressure, and very-low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol as predictors for orexin-A. The area under control value showed orexin-A, FBG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, IS, ALT, AST, NO and MDA as biomarkers for T2DM disease. Conclusion: Orexin-A has a predictive ability to diagnose T2DM, as it is significantly associated with hyperglycemia, IR, and IS.

Aim: To assess isorhamnetin efficacy for diabetic kidney disease in a Type 2 diabetes mellitus rat model, through investigating its effect at the epigenetic, mRNA and protein levels. Materials & methods: Type 2 diabetes mellitus was induced in rats by streptozotocin and high-fat diet. Rats were treated with isorhamnetin (50 mg/kg/d) for 4 or 8 weeks. Fasting blood glucose, renal and lipid profiles were evaluated. Renal tissues were examined by light and electron microscopy. Autophagy genes ( FYCO1, ULK, TECPR1 and  WIPI2) and miR-15b, miR-34a and miR-633 were assessed by qRT-PCR, and LC3A/B by immunoblotting. Results: Isorhamnetin improved fasting blood glucose, renal and lipid profiles with increased autophagosomes in renal tissues. It suppressed miRNA regulation of autophagy genes Conclusion: We propose a molecular mechanism for the isorhamnetin renoprotective effect by modulation of autophagy epigenetic regulators.

Fenofibrate Treatment

Abstract Background: This study was to research the efficacy of fenofibrate in the treatment of microalbuminuria in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertriglyceridemia. Methods: Type 2 diabetic patients (56) with microalbuminuria and hypertriglyceridemia aged 30 to 75 were randomly divided into the fenofibrate treatment group(n=28) and the control group (n=28) for 180 days. Urinary microalbumin /creatinine ratio (UACR) and other metabolic parameters were compared at baseline, during treatment and after treatment. Results: After 180 days, the reduction of levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in two groups were no differences. In treatment group, uric acid (UA) (296.42 ± 56.41 vs 372.46 ± 72.78), triglyceride (TG) [1.51(1.17, 2.06) vs 3.04(2.21, 3.29)], and UACR [36.45 (15.78,102.41) vs 129.00 (53.00, 226.25)] were significantly decreased compared with the baseline. The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were significantly increased (1.22 ± 0.26 vs 1.09 ± 0.24) compared with the baseline. The decrease in UACR [-44.05(-179.47, -12.16) vs -8.15(-59.69, 41.94)]in treatment group was significantly higher compared with the control group. The decrease in UACR was positively associated with the decreases in TG ( r = 0.447, P = 0.042) and UA ( r = 0.478, P = 0.024) after fenofibrate treatment. Conclusion: In the patients with hypertriglyceridemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus, fenofibrate can improve microalbuminuria and do not increase the deterioration of glomerular filtration rate

BACKGROUND:Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a major non-communicable disease resulting from insulin resistance and is associated with cardiovascular,neurological and renal complications.Recent studies show association of hyperuricemia and Diabetes Mellitus.Uric acid increases oxidative stress that leads to vascular dysfunction and high intra glomerular pressure leading to renal complications.High serum creatinine is an indicator of renal compromise. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to find association between them. METHODOLOGY: The study was conducted in Osmania general hospital. Fifty cases of established Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus formed the study group and 50 normal healthy individuals formed the control group. Serum uric acid, Fasting Blood Glucose (FBS) and serum creatinine were estimated by colorimetric enzymatic methods on Beckman coulter AU5800.Mean values were compared in cases and controls using student t- test.Study group was further studied under 2 subgroups with serum Uric acid < 7 mg/dl and ≥7 mg/dl.In these 2 subgroups the association of Serum uric acid with FBS and creatinine was analysed statistically. RESULTS: Serum uric acid were found high in cases(7.63+/- 3.36)as compared to controls(4.48+/- 1.09) p value < 0.001.Serum creatinine were also high in cases(1.59+/- 1.39 )as compared to controls ( 0.87+/- 0.29) p value <0.005.Study subgroup with serum uric acid ≥7 mg/dl was associated with high creatinine and high fasting blood sugar levels when compared to subgroup with serum uric acid <7 mg/dl. CONCLUSION: Our study showed increased serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in cases when compared to controls.There was significant association between high serum uric acid and high creatinine levels in cases.Therefore,it is important to measure serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in diabetics for early detection of renal pathology.

Objective. The aim of the study was to evaluate blood glucose, insulin resistance indices, and adipokine (leptin and adiponectin) levels in morbidly obese individuals with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus and to compare the changes in these parameters 1 year after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding surgery. Material and Methods. In total, 103 patients (37 subjects with and 66 subjects without type 2 diabetes mellitus) were studied preoperatively and again 1 year after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. Results. One year after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding, the leptin concentrations decreased significantly in both treatment groups, while the adiponectin levels increased significantly in the nondiabetic patients (11.19 μg/mL [SD 7.20] vs. 15.58 μg/mL [SD 7.8], P=0.003) and tended to increase in the group of the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (8.98 μg/mL [SD 6.80] vs. 13.01 μg/mL [SD 12.14], P>0.05). A considerable decrease in the insulin resistance indices was noted in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus 1 year after the intervention, and it was followed by a partial or complete remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus in 23 (85.19%) of the 27 investigated diabetic patients. The postoperative insulin resistance indices in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus became similar to the values in the nondiabetic subjects. Conclusions. Weight loss after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding is associated with a significant increase in adiponectin secretion in nondiabetic morbidly obese patients and with improvement in adiponectin secretion in type 2 diabetes individuals. In subjects with type 2 diabetes, this surgical intervention results in a significant reduction in blood glucose and insulin resistance.
