Objective — to determine the clinical and metabolic features of pre‑ and postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and osteoarthritis (OA) against the background of impaired metabolism of visfatin (VF). Materials and methods. 120 pre‑ and postmenopausal women were selected for the study and divided into 3 groups: group 1 included women with isolated DM2; group 2 — women with isolated OA; group 3 — women with DM2, combined with OA. The control group consisted of 16 healthy women. Investigations included anthropometric measurements, assessment of the indices of lipid and carbohydrate exchange and clinical manifestations of premenopause and postmenopause. Determination of the serum VF levels of patients was performed by enzyme‑linked immunosorbent assay on the analyzer «Labline‑90» (Austria). Results. Investigation of the specific features of the DM2 and OA course in premenopausal women demonstrated violations of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, defined by the significant (р < 0.001) increase in VF levels up to (3.9 ± 1.2 ng/ml) and (4.2 ± 1.1 ng/ml), respectively. The highest VF level was recorded in the group of comorbid DM2 and OA (5.5 ± 1.0 ng/ml) compared with the levels of relatively healthy women of the same age group (1.8 ± 0.5 ng/ml). Moreover, the high indices of body mass index, waist and hip circumference, systolic and diastolic pressure, as well as of the menopausal index were established at DM2 and OA vs control group. Conclusions. Clinical and metabolic disorders have been identified in pre‑ and postmenopausal women against the background of OA and DM2 based on the significant (р < 0.001) increase in visfatin levels, especially in case of comorbid OA and DM2, as compared to the control group of age‑matched practically healthy women.

Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is very common worldwide and genetically heterogeneous. One of the microvascular complications is diabetic nephropathy (DN). In recent years, T2DM has been described as a disease caused by chronic inflammation. The imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines causes inflammation. One of the candidate genes associated with T2DM and DN is the Interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene, one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study was conducted to determine the polymorphism frequencies of the IL-6 gene rs1800796 and investigate the role of this polymorphism in the development of T2DM and DN. Genomic DNA that was obtained from 261 people was used in the study. IL-6 gene rs1800796 polymorphism was determined using the PCR, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and electrophoresis. IL-6 gene PCR products were discontinued by treatment with restriction enzyme BsrBI and were analyzed in 2% agarose gel electrophoresis. IL-6 (Bioassay technology laboratory, Shangai, China) level was examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a commercial kit. The results were statistically analyzed. The frequencies of rs1800796 genotypes were found to be GG 70.7%, GC 28.5%, CC 0.8% in the control group and GG 87.8%, GC 9.9 %, CC 2.3% in T2DM patients. Although there was a statistically significant difference between the control group and the T2DM patient group in genotype and allele frequencies, there was no significant difference in DN. The G allele frequency was also significantly higher in the T2DM group (p=0.000). IL-6 levels were determinated increased in patients with Type-2 diabetes compared to the control group. However; there was no significant statistically. We can say that IL-6 rs1800796 polymorphism is related to T2DM and G allele can be used as a useful genetic marker; this polymorphism is not related to DN, though.

The link between vitamin D and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is intensively studied. This study aims to define the serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) and to investigate the relationship between 25-OH D status, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and body composition in postmenopausal women with T2DM and in non-diabetic controls. In this cross-sectional study, 75 women with T2DM and 32 control subjects were selected. Serum 25-OH D, intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, fasting glucose and HbA1c, were measured. The mean 25-OH D level was 21.4 ± 11.4 ng/ml (range 4.1–50.7 ng/ml) in diabetic women and 30.3 ± 9.4 ng/ml (range 10.8–54.2 ng/ml) in control group (p<0.001). The prevalence of hypovitaminosis D (< 30 ng/ml) was higher in vitamin D3 non-supplemented T2DM women (89% vs. 63% controls); the difference diminished in vitamin D3 (500–1000 IU per day) supplemented subgroups (45% diabetics vs. 42% controls). In T2DM women, 25-OH D levels were not associated to HbA1c, duration of diabetes, fasting glucose and PTH levels, however, 25-OH D levels negatively associated with body mass index (p=0.011), total body fat mass (p=0.005) and total body lean mass (p=0.004). The prevalence of hypovitaminosis D is higher in non-supplemented postmenopausal women with T2DM than in non-diabetic controls (89% vs. 63%). Obesity is a risk factor for vitamin D insufficiency in T2DM postmenopausal women. Further studies evaluating relationships between fat, muscle, bone and vitamin D metabolism in T2DM patients are warranted.

Objective Adropin, a newly identified regulatory protein encoded by Enho gene, is correlated with insulin sensitivity and diabetes. The aim of this study is to determine whether serum and vitreous adropin concentrations are correlated with the presence of diabetic retinopathy. Methods A population of 165 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (52 without diabetic retinopathy, 69 with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 44 patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy) was enrolled in this study. The control group enrolled 68 healthy subjects who had underwent vitrectomy for retinal detachment. Serum and vitreous adropin concentrations were examined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Results Control subjects had significantly higher serum and vitreous adropin concentrations compared with diabetic patients. Serum and vitreous adropin concentrations in proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients were significantly reduced compared with those in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without diabetic retinopathy. In addition, there were lower serum and vitreous adropin concentrations in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients compared with type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without diabetic retinopathy. Logistic regression analysis revealed that serum and vitreous adropin were associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic retinopathy. Conclusion Serum and vitreous adropin concentrations are negatively associated with the presence of diabetic retinopathy.

The relationship of visceral obesity and excess body weight (EBW) with the development of cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and effect on quality and duration of life determine the relevance of studying this problem. The aim: to assess omentin-1 metabolism and pathophysiological relationship between its level and the severity of lesions in the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the carotid arteries in type 2 DM in combination with EBW and obesity. Materials and methods. We examined 98 people with DM, the first group consisted of 64 people with EBW and obesity, second group consisted of 34 people with normal body weight, control group – 28 healthy individuals. The concentration of omentin-1 was investigated by ELISA by solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in vitro. Ultrasound of the carotid arteries was performed in the lying position of the patient on the device MyLab50X with a linear sensor of 7 MHz with a slight deviation of the patient's head in the opposite direction. Results. Evaluation of the correlation matrix showed the presence of a positive rather strong negative connection between IMT, especially the right carotid artery and the level of omentin-1 in the blood (Rs = –0.55; p = 0.002). The largest number of individuals with omentin-1 levels from 5–10 ng / ml had significant disorders of the vascular wall (IMT from 1.0 to 1.2 mm). Conclusion. Obtained data indicate a statistically significant associative relationship between the dynamics of the predictor of cardiovascular risk – IMT with the degree of impaired expression of omentin-1.

Aim. To study effect of concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus on the number of circulating progenitor cells (CPC) in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) and postinfarction heart failure (ischemic cardiomyopathy).Methods. The number of CPC (CD34+ cells) was determined by flow cytophotometry in 47 patients with CHD including 14 with CHD + DM2; 12patients without CHD and DM2 made up the control grouP. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure N-terminal precursor of brainnatriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), immunoreactive insulin (IRI) and C-peptide levels. Results. The number of CPC in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy without DM2 was 33.4% greater than in controls. In patients with cardiomyopathyand DM2 the number of CPC depended on the quality of diabetes compensation. It was lowest in case of decompensated DM2 (HbA1c=9.5?1.8%).In patients with compensated/subcompensated DM2 (HbA1c=6.8?0.3%) it was significantly higher than in controls and patients with ischemiccardiomyopathy without DM2 (mean 46.5 (p=0.006) and 40.0% (p=0.02) respectively). Conclusion. The number of CPC in peripheral blood of patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and DM2 correlated with the level of DM compensation.It was lowest in patients with decompensated DM2 and exceeded the normal number in patients with CHD without DM2. The number of CPC inverselycorrelated with blood glucose level. Positive correlation of CPC number with IRI and C-peptide levels was documented in control subjects and patientswith CHD without DM2.

The latest studies prove an increased risk of colorectal cancer in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The pathogenetic factors of type 2 diabetes have been recognized as mechanisms of association between these diseases. The objective: to investigate the effects of obesity, hyperinsulinemia, IGF-1 and hyperglycemia on the development of colorectal cancer in patients with type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods. 36 patients were divided into groups: I – healthy (control group), II – patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, III – patients with colorectal cancer without diabetes, IV – patients with a combination of two diseases. Using the method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were determined levels of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). DM compensation was assessed by the level of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) that was determined by immuno-exchange chromatography. The data obtained were analyzed using Statistica 12.0 (StatSoft Inc.,USA). Differences between the values in the control and experimental groups were determined by the Student’s t-test. The differences were considered significant at р<0.05. Results. According to the data obtained, colorectal cancer was diagnosed in patients with the age of over 60 years old with obesity. The body mass index (BMI) in patients of all study groups was higher than 30 kg/m2. Patients of group IV with a combination of type 2 diabetes and a circle of rectal cancer had significantly higher BMI compared to the control group (р<0.05). Significant hyperinsulinemia and increased IGF-1 levels were detected in patients in all study groups (р<0.05). Most patients with diabetes in both groups had HbA1c levels higher than 7.5%. Conclusions. Obesity, hyperinsulinemia, increased bioavailability of IGF-1, and hyperglycemia are pathogenetic factors in the risk of colorectal cancer in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients over the age of 55 with diabetes, obesity, and hyperinsulinemia are advised to be screened for colorectal cancer.

Background: Several studies suggested that skeletal system is adversely affected by diabetes and is associated with increased risk of osteoporosis and fragility fractures   Objectives: The study was a case-control study that designed to assess the level of bone turnover markers (BTMs) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to investigate the effect of body weight and diabetic control on the level of bone turnover Type of the study: Cross- sectional study. Methods: The present study included 100 postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sixty-six non-diabetic postmenopausal women were enrolled as a control. Fasting blood samples were collected to measure Alkaline phosphatase (ALP),stoeocalcin(OC), fasting blood sugar (FBS)and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Urine samples were collected to measure deoxypyridinolin(DPD). The results were expressed as a ratio to urine creatinine Results: The mean level of serum osteocalcin was significantly lower in the diabetic group than in the control group,while the level of urinary deoxypyridinolin was significantly higher in the diabetic group than in the control group . There was no significant difference in the level of Alkaline phosphatase between diabetic patients and control. An inverse association was found between osteocalcin with body mass index(BMI), glycated hemoglobin and fasting blood sugar. On the other hand appositive association was found between the level of deoxypyridinolin with body mass index Conclusions: Altered bone metabolic markers in patients with T2DM with more significant alterations in those who hsd poor glycemic control . Decrease in formation marker osteocalcin and increased resorption markers such as (DPD) has been found.

Iron disorder and abnormal expression of hepcidin play important roles in many diseases, but it is still unclear in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).  We aimed to assess iron, ferritin and hepcidin levels in plasma of with or without T2DM and evaluated increased body iron stores as risk factor for developing T2DM. Plasma samples were collected from 88 participants, who were categorized into 2 groups based on the presence or absence of T2DM. Demographics and general health parameters were recorded. Chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to detect iron, ferritin and hepcidin concentrations. The geometric mean±SD of the plasma level of hepcidin, ferritin, iron and insulin among T2DM comparing with that of healthy controls were evaluated. Plasma ferritin and hepcidin levels in T2DM group were higher than in the control group (P < 0.05). The geometric mean ± SD of hepcidin and ferritin for T2DM were 41.1±23.3 μg/L and 227.2±156.1 ŋg/L respectively;   higher than the 15.2±2.3 μg/L and 114.4±60.4 ŋg/L of controls respectively. There was a significant associated between high level of plasma hepcidin (OR=2.75) and ferritin (OR=2.24); with T2 DM. In conclusion: the regulation of body iron, an essential but also toxic element is strictly controlled by a small peptide hormone hepcidin. The present data demonstrated that the higher hepcidin level in diabetic patients may be due to that higher ferritin, the elevated hepcidin might have adaptive value through down-regulated iron absorb and play an important role in pathogenesis of T2 DM.

Background: Serum ferritin is known as an index for body iron stores also as an inflammatory marker and it is influenced by several disease. We were looking for a correlation between HbA1c and S. Ferritin in type 2 DM. Methodology: The present study a total of 150 participants were enrolled of which 100 were confirmed cases of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and rest 50 age and sex matched healthy subjects constituted the control group. All were screened for HbA1c, Fasting blood sugar, Post prandial blood sugar and S.Ferritin. Results: A highly significant variation and positive correlation was observed with respect to S.Ferritin and HbA1c levels. Mean S.Ferritin was high in the subgroup with poor glycemic control. Conclusion: The fasting, post prandial sugar levels, HbA1c and S.Ferritin were significantly higher in the diabetic subjects. This study shows a positive correlation between HbA1c and S. Ferritin levels. So we can conclude that in diabetic patients S. Ferritin may serve as an independent marker of poor glycemic and metabolic control. Keywords: Serum ferritin, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, HbA1c.
