Insight Into

The presence of hypertension (HTN) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common phenomenon in more than half of the diabetic patients. Since HTN constitutes a predictor of vascular complications and cardiovascular disease in type 2 DM patients, it is of significance to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms of type 2 DM binding to HTN. This review attempts to understand the mechanism via the perspective of the metabolites. It reviewed the metabolic perturbations, the biological function of perturbated metabolites in two diseases, and the mechanism underlying metabolic perturbation that contributed to the connection of type 2 DM and HTN. DM-associated metabolic perturbations may be involved in the pathogenesis of HTN potentially in insulin, angiotensin II, sympathetic nervous system, and the energy reprogramming to address how perturbated metabolites in type 2 DM affect the pathogenesis of HTN. The recent integration of the metabolism field with microbiology and immunology may provide a wider perspective. Metabolism affects immune function and supports immune cell differentiation by the switch of energy. The diverse metabolites produced by bacteria modified the biological process in the inflammatory response of chronic metabolic diseases either. The rapidly evolving metabolomics has enabled to have a better understanding of the process of diseases, which is an important tool for providing some insight into the investigation of diseases mechanism. Metabolites served as direct modulators of biological processes were believed to assess the pathological mechanisms involved in diseases.

OBJECTIVE: The rate of reduction of nocturnal blood pressure (NBP) is lesser than normal in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM). Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHC) disrupts vascular structure and function, no matter the underlying causes. The risk of development of vascular disease is greater in diabetic patients with hyperhomocysteinemia than in patients with normal homocystein levels. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there are differences of homocystein levels in dipper and non-dippers patients with type 2 DM. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We compared 50 patients (33 females, 17 males) with type 2 DM and 35 healthy individuals (18 females, 17 males ) in a control group. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed and homocysteine levels were measured in all patients. RESULTS: We found that the percentage of non-dipper pattern was 72% in patients with type 2 DM and 57% in control group. In diabetic and control individuals, homocystein levels were higher in non-dipper (respectively 13.4 ± 8.1 µmol/L and 11.8 ± 5 µmol/L) than in dipper subjects (respectively, 11.8 ± 5.8 µmol/L and 10.1 ± 4.2 µmol/L), but there was no significant difference between the two groups (respectively, p = 0.545, p = 0.294). CONCLUSION: In both groups, homocystein levels were higher in non-dipper than in dipper participants, but there was no significant difference between the groups. High homocystein levels and the non-dipper pattern increases cardiovascular risk. Therefore, the relationship between nocturnal blood pressure changes and homocystein levels should be investigated in a larger study.

AbstractBackground:Presence of macro- and microvascular complications in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is not only related to chronic hyperglycemia represented by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) but also to acute glycemic fluctuations (glycemic variability, GV). The association between GV and DM complications is not completely clear. Aim of our study was to evaluate GV by MAGE index in patients with type 2 DM and to verify association of MAGE index with presence of macro- and microvascular DM complications.Methods:99 patients with type 2 DM were included in the study. Every patient had done big glycemic profile, from which MAGE index was calculated. Anthropometric measurements, evaluation of HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and assessment for macrovascular (coronary artery disease – CAD; peripheral artery disease – PAD; cerebral stroke – CS) and microvascular (diabetic retinopathy – DR; nephropathy – DN; peripheral neuropathy – DPPN) DM complications were done.Results:Average MAGE index value was 5.15 ± 2.88 mmol/l. We found no significant differences in MAGE index values in subgroups according to presence of neither CAD, CS, PAD nor DR, DN, DPPN. MAGE index value significantly positively correlated with FPG (p < 0.01) and HbA1c (p < 0.001) and negatively with weight (p < 0.05).Conclusion:In our study we failed to show association of MAGE index with presence of macrovascular and microvascular complications in patients with type 2 DM. However, this negative result does not necessarily disprove importance of glycemic variability in pathogenesis of diabetic complications.

Abstract Background: Platelet volume indices (PVI) such as mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW) and platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR), are the indicators of increased platelet activity which may play a role in development of vascular complications in diabetic patients. This study was performed to evaluate and compare the platelet volume indices such as MPV, PDW, P-LCR in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) with and without manifested coronary artery disease in order to identify their usefulness in determining the risk for development of coronary complications.Methods: Analytical cross - sectional study included 150 patients of which 100 patients were diagnosed as type 2 DM and 50 apparently healthy controls. The study cases were divided into two groups based on presence or absence of coronary artery disease. Group A included 50 cases of type 2 DM without manifested coronary artery disease and group B included 50 cases of type 2 DM with manifested coronary artery disease. PVI was obtained using automated cell counter.Results: MPV, PDW, P-LCR were significantly higher in diabetics as compared to controls subjects (P < 0.001 for all). However, no statistically significant difference was found between diabetics with and without manifested coronary artery disease.Conclusions: The study showed higher PVI in diabetic subjects when compared to control subjects, but no difference between patients with and without manifested coronary artery disease suggesting that various other factors might be associated with the pathogenesis of CAD in patients of DM.

Objective: There are probably 100 million people in the world with diabetes mellitus (DM), and incidences of diabetes are on the rise. Dyslipidemia is one of the common disorders which are seen in most of the diabetes patients, which causes cardiovascular disorders. The aim of this study is to investigate the total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerols (TGs), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in Type 2 DM, and healthy controls.Methods: The study was conducted on 50 controls and 50 Type 2 diabetic subjects between age group of 30 and 60 years. Serum TC was determined by an enzymatic (cholesterol oxidase/phenol-aminophenazone [PAP]) colorimetric method and TGs were determined by an enzymatic (glycerol phosphate oxidase-PAP) method, and HDL-C was estimated by a precipitant method. Statistical analysis was done using unpaired t-test.Results: The mean value of TC, TGs, and HDL-C in normal subjects is 165.5±24.24, 118.7±41.58, 28.38±7.85 mg/dl, respectively, and the value of TC, TGs, and HDL-C in diabetic patients is 179±31.69, 164.35±27.93, 25.4±6.86 mg/dl, respectively. The observed difference in the means of TC, TGs, and HDL-C in normal and diabetic are statistically significant (p<0.05).Conclusion: From the present study, it is concluded that TC, TGs, and HDL-C levels for all persons with Type 2 DM should be done as a routine test. Furthermore, early diagnosis and treatment of dyslipidemia can be used as a preventive measure for the development of cardiovascular disease in Type 2 diabetes.Keywords: Diabetes mellitus, Dyslipidemia, Lipid profile, Total cholesterol, Triglycerides, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

AbstractReceptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) plays the essential role in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular complications. The aim of the study was to compare concentration of soluble RAGE and its ligands (EN-RAGE and HMGB1) with different biochemical parameters in Type 1 (T1DM) and Type 2 (T2DM) diabetes mellitus.Total number of 154 persons (45 T1DM, 68 T2DM, 41 controls) was examined and concentrations of sRAGE, EN-RAGE and HMGB1 were measured and compared to diabetes control, albuminuria, cell adhesion molecules and metalloproteinases (MMPs).Mean serum sRAGE concentration was higher in T1DM as compared to controls (1137±532 ng/l vs. 824±309 ng/l, p<0.01). Similarly, EN-RAGE was significantly higher in both diabetic groups (p<0.001) and HMGB1 concentrations were elevated in T2DM patients (p<0.01). Significant relationship was found between MMP9 and HMGB1 and EN-RAGE in diabetic patients. Inverse relationship was observed between MMP2 and MMP9 in both types of diabetic patients (r= − 0.602, p<0.002 and r= − 0.771, p<0.001). Significant positive correlation was found between sRAGE and ICAM-1, VCAM-1 or vWF (p<0.01 to p<0.001).We conclude that serum sRAGE and RAGE ligands concentrations reflect endothelial dysfunction developing in diabetes.

Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) can lead to microvascular and macrovascular damages through hyperglycemia that is the main cause of diabetic complications. Other factors such as hypertension, obesity, and hyperlipidemia may worsen or accelerate the others. Several studies have revealed definitive genetic predispositions to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and development of vascular complications. This study aimed to address the association between plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene polymorphism and T2DM, and if this gene polymorphism may have a possible role in the development of vascular complications in T2DM. This study is a case control; it included 200 patients with T2DM, 117 patients had no vascular complications, and 83 had previous vascular complications (VCs). One hundred eighty volunteer blood donors were selected as a healthy control group. All patients and controls were subjected to clinical examination, and laboratory investigations included lipid profile, fasting and 2 h blood glucose, complete blood cell count, d-dimer, PAI-1, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), and detection of PAI-1 gene polymorphism by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results The most prevalent genotype of PAI-1 gene polymorphism in all studied groups, including controls, was 4G/5G with the highest allele frequency as 4G. The 4G/5G and 4G/4G genotypes were associated with increased risk of DM development as compared to 5G/5G genotype. The 4G/5G and 4G/4G genotypes also had a highly significant increased risk of VCs among diabetic patients, as compared to 5G/5G. The 4G allele also was highly associated with DM with VCs. The d-dimer TAFI, PAI-1 showed the highest levels in 4G/5G genotype followed by 4G/4G genotype. The lowest level was expressed in 5G/5G genotype in diabetic patients with and without VCs. The univariable analysis showed that genotypes 4G/5G and 4G/4G were potentially risk factors for development of VCs with T2DM patients. Conclusion This study concludes that the PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism may be associated with T2DM and may be considered as a risk factor for development of thrombotic events. It may also help in selection and dosing of patients being treated with anticoagulant and fibrinolytic agents. Further large-scale studies are recommended to assess the possible role of environmental factors and gene interactions in the development of T2DM vascular risks.

Objective: Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) is a myocardial disease characterized by myocyte hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, protein glycosylation and intra-myocardial micro-angiopathy due to prolonged exposure of myocardial tissues to hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. Alteration in cardiac function can be non-invasively assessed via echocardiography. The early recognition of cardiac dysfunction can prevent the symptomatic heart failure in DM patients. The study aimed at evaluating cardiac function in uncomplicated type 2 diabetes mellitus. Materials And Methods: Sixty Type 2 DM patients without any feature of the coronary arterial disease (CAD), hypertension, nephropathy and respiratory illness were enrolled in the study and compared with the sixty age matched healthy controls. Echocardiographic assessment was done in all subjects to evaluate the cardiac function. Results: Diastolic dysfunction was more common in diabetic patients when compared with normal healthy population. Systolic dysfunction progresses with age of the diabetic patient. Conclusion: Echocardiography is a simple noninvasive cost effective test for detecting cardiac dysfunction in Type 2 DM patients and should be applied to detect early Left ventricular(LV) dysfunction so that corrective measures may be initiated early and cardiac functions may be preserved for long.

Contradictory Data

SummaryIncreased levels of soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) have been shown in a number of different disorders, e.g. diabetes mellitus (DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Several studies have attempted to demonstrate the association of the most intensively examined variant of P-selectin gene polymorphism (Thr715Pro) with sP-selectin levels in healthy subjects and in CVD, but contradictory data have been reported.To clarify the effect of Pro715 allele on the sP-selectin levels in type 2 DM, we analysed this polymorphism in diabetic patients and compared these data with sP-selectin levels. Type 2 DM patients (n=119), 48 BMImatched non diabetic individuals – consisting mostly of overweight subjects – and 57 healthy volunteers were included in the study.TheThr715Pro polymorphism was analysed by PCR-RFLP, while sP-selectin levels were measured by ELISA. Significantly elevated sP-selectin levels were found in both DM and in overweight subjects compared to healthy controls. We confirmed previous reports that in healthy Pro715 allele carriers lower sP-selectin levels could be measured; however, this difference was only significant in case of lean subjects. No significant difference was detected in sP-selectin level among DM and overweight individuals according to this genotype. However, significant difference was observed in sP-selectin levels in older DM patients compared to younger ones,but these levels were not accounted for by the Thr715Pro polymorphism.We suggest that in type 2 DM individuals, the significantly elevated sP-selectin levels are not due to the Thr715Pro P-selectin gene polymorphism.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is common metabolic disorder leading to various complications including micro-vascular complication. Diabetes and thyroid dysfunction can result in abnormalities of one another, as both are strongly implicated in cellular metabolism.  Aim of study was to establish any association between hypothyroidism and micro-vascular complications in patients of type 2 DM. Material and Methods: This Hospital based Cross sectional analytical Study was included 80 Euthyroid and 80 hypothyroid patients of type 2 DM. These patients were subjected to fundus examination (for retinopathy), urine for spot albumin and creatinine ratio and routine microscopy (for nephropathy), clinical examination and NCV (for neuropathy). Results: Age of patients ranged from 30 – 80 years. Most patients had duration of Diabetes > 5 years. Diabetic retinopathy was found in 15% Euthyroid and 37.5% Hypothyroid diabetics (p=0.002). Neuropathy was more in Hypothyroid (35%) as compared to Euthyroid (12.5%) patients (p=0.003). Prevalence of Nephropathy was also significantly more (p=0.011) in Hypothyroids (60%) as compared to Euthyroid (38.75%). Conclusion: Significant association was found between hypothyroidism and micro vascular complications in type 2 Diabetes mellitus. Screening of diabetics for thyroid functions is essential to reduce morbidity. Keywords: Diabetes, thyroid, retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and genotype distribution of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Subjects and Methods: We included 556 consecutive patients with confirmed type 2 DM attending the Diabetic Clinic of the Bushehr University of Medical Sciences and 733 nondiabetic subjects as controls. Serum levels of fasting blood sugar (FBS), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total cholesterol (TCH), and triglycerides (TG) were measured by enzymatic colorimetric methods, and the presence of anti-HCV antibodies was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Semi-nested reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) followed by sequencing was performed on all anti-HCV-seropositive samples. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 17, and descriptive statistics, χ2 test, Fisher exact test, and the Student t test were used for analysis. Results: The seroprevalence of HCV in the diabetic patients was 1.98% (11/556), which was higher than HCV prevalence among the nondiabetic controls (4/733, 0.54%) (p = 0.032). No significant differences in ALT, AST, FBS, TG, and TCH levels were found between the HCV-seropositive and HCV-seronegative diabetic patients, although HCV-seropositive diabetic patients tended to have higher ALT, AST, and TCH levels, but lower TG and FBS levels than HCV-seronegative patients. In logistic regression analysis, only AST levels were significantly associated with HCV seropositivity among diabetic patients. The AST level of 41–80 IU/L was the only significant predictive variable for HCV seropositivity in the diabetic patients (odds ratio, 4.89; 95% CI: 1.06–22.49; p = 0.041). Of the 11 HCV-seropositive diabetic patients, 10 (91%) had HCV viremia with genotype 3a. Conclusion: Patients with type 2 DM had a higher prevalence of HCV infection than controls, and HCV seropositivity was independent of biochemical parameters.
