Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is one of the T-cell mediated autoimmune diseases and vitamin D suppresses activation of T-cell
and has immunomodulatory effects. In this study the association between four vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms,
at positions FokI, BsmI, ApaI and TaqI, and susceptibility to T1DM was investigated. We assessed 87 Iranian patients with
T1DM and one hundred healthy controls with no history of diabetes or other autoimmune diseases. Our results demonstrated that
genotypes frequency of the TaqI VDR polymorphism differed significantly between T1DM patients and controls, TT genotype and
T allele was more frequent in healthy controls compared with TIDM patients (P = 0.003; OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.31–0.84). Therefore, allele t is the risk-allele for developing TIDM in this study. No significant association was observed
between others VDR SNPs and disease susceptibility. In conclusion, our case-control study indicated that the VDR TaqI polymorphism
is associated with TIDM in Iranian population. 相似文献

Background: In a range of chronic conditions including diabetes, it has been observed that depressive symptoms may be associated with nonadherence to medications.Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the main effects, and interactive effect, of depression and gender on patients adherence to oral diabetes medications.Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed, in which persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus completed a questionnaire regarding medication use behaviors, depressive symptoms (measured by the 8-item Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-8]), health beliefs, and demographics. A 2 x 2 factorial analysis of variance was used to determine the effects of gender and depression on medication adherence after adjusting for age, education, self efficacy, social support, and number of doses of diabetes medications.Results: Of the 391 respondents who completed the questionnaire, 73 (18.7%) were categorized as having depression (ie, PHQ-8 score >10). Overall, women (n = 196) had a mean (SD) score of 6.10 (6.19) on the PHQ-8, and men (n = 195) had a lower score of 4.62 (5.28) (t = 2.75; P < 0.01). There was a significant main effect of depression, but not gender, on patients' adherence to diabetes medications in that those who were categorized as depressed had significantly worse adherence to diabetes medications (F = 4.82; P = 0.03).Additionally, there was a significant “gender x depression” interaction effect on adherence (F = 5.93; P = 0.01). Men with depression had mean adherence scores that indicated more nonadherence than did men without depression (9.44 [3.45] vs 7.47 [2.50], respectively), but adherence varied little between women with depression and women without depression (7.83 [2.69] vs 7.55 [2.58], respectively).Conclusions: The association between depression and medication adherence appears to be stronger in men than in women. Clinicians should be cognizant of the potential effect of depression on self-care for diabetes, particularly in men with depressive symptoms. 相似文献

The rising epidemic of diabetes imposes a substantial economic burden on the Middle East. Using baseline data from a population based cohort study, we aimed to identify the correlates of diabetes mellitus (DM) in a mainly rural population from Iran. Between 2004 and 2007, 50044 adults between 30 and 87 years old from Golestan Province located in Northeast Iran were enrolled in the Golestan Cohort Study. Demographic and health-related information was collected using questionnaires. Individuals' body sizes at ages 15 and 30 were assessed by validated pictograms ranging from 1 (very lean) to 7 in men and 9 in women. DM diagnosis was based on the self-report of a physician's diagnosis. The accuracy of self-reported DM was evaluated in a subcohort of 3811 individuals using fasting plasma glucose level and medical records. Poisson regression with robust variance estimator was used to estimate prevalence ratios (PR's). The prevalence of self-reported DM standardized to the national and world population was 5.7% and 6.2%, respectively. Self-reported DM had 61.5% sensitivity and 97.6% specificity. Socioeconomic status was inversely associated with DM prevalence. Green tea and opium consumption increased the prevalence of DM. Obesity at all ages and extreme leanness in childhood increased diabetes prevalence. Being obese throughout life doubled DM prevalence in women (PR: 2.1; 95% CI: 1.8, 2.4). These findings emphasize the importance of improving DM awareness, improving general living conditions, and early lifestyle modifications in diabetes prevention. 相似文献

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a multifactorial metabolic disorder which is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. T2DM is due to the interplay of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Zinc is an important element for insulin storage and secretion. Zinc transporters ensure zinc transportation across the biological membranes and enable the cellular flow of zinc into the extracellular matrix or the intracellular vesicles. Solute carrier family 30 member 8 (SLC30A8) gene encodes zinc transporter protein member 8. The rs13266634 C/T polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene has been reported with higher risk of T2DM in literature. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the association between rs13266634 polymorphism and T2DM in Fars province, Southern Iran and compare the results with other populations. A total of 306 subjects were collected from the outpatients of Shahid Motahhari clinic affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. These subjects were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and validated by direct sequencing. The frequency of CC genotype in diabetic and control groups was 90 (59.6 %) and 89 (57.4 %). The number of CT genotype was 51 (33.8 %) in the case and 49 (31.6 %) in the control group. The TT genotype was 10 (6.6 %) and 17 (11 %) in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects, respectively. No significant difference was found between the normal and T2DM subjects regarding the allelic and genotypic distribution (p = 0.35, OR = 1.19, 95 % CI 0.82–1.7) and (p = 0.94, OR = 1.7, 95 % CI 0.7–3.9). No significant difference was found between the normal and diabetic subjects regarding the rs13266634 C/T polymorphism in SLC30A8 gene. In comparison with other ethnic groups, the C allele frequency in our population was very similar to that of the European but higher than that of the Eastern Asian and lower than the African populations. 相似文献

Serum sialic acid levels and selected mineral status in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether altered serum total sialic acid (TSA), lipid-associated sialic acid
(LSA), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), and magnesium (Mg) levels had an interactive connection
with diabetes and also whether they were correlated with each other in diabetic patients. Two study groups (control and type
2 diabetic subjects) were included. Two hundred patients (108 female and 92 male), diagnosed and treated for type 2 diabetes
in the Yuzuncu Yil University Hospital (Van, Turkey), were selected consecutively to represent type 2 diabetic patients. Fifty
healthy individuals (29 female and 21 male) served as the control group matched for age, sex, body mass index, and smoking
status were selected from hospital staff and other outpatient clinics. All participants had not taken vitamin or mineral supplements
for at least 2 wk before sampling. Blood samples were drawn after an overnight fasting in both groups for the determination
of serum glucose, TSA, LSA, Cu, Zn, Mn, Cr, Fe, and Mg. It was found that diabetics had higher TSA, LSA, Fe, Mn, Fe/Zn, and
Cu/Zn levels, and lower Zn and Mg levels than those of controls. Although, Cu levels were higher, and Cr levels were lower
in total and male diabetic patients, they were not different in female diabetic patients than in controls. The Cu/Fe ratio
was lower in total and female diabetic patients, but not different in male diabetic patients than controls. The Zn/Cr ratio,
on the other hand, was not different in diabetics than in controls. There was only a positive correlation between Fe-Mn levels
in male diabetic patients. There was a negative correlation in LSA-Mn, Fe-Cu, Cu-Fe/Zn, and Mn-Cu/Zn levels in total diabetic
patients. There was a positive correlation in TSA-Cr, TSA-Mg, LSA-Cu/Fe, LSA-Zn/Cr levels, and a negative correlation in TSA-Cu/Zn,
LSA-Mn, Fe-Cu, Mn-Cu, Cu-Fe/Zn, Fe-cholesterol, and Cr-cholesterol in female diabetic patients. Our results showed that TSA,
LSA, and selected minerals have interactive connections with diabetes mellitus (DM). There are also many sex-related positive
or negative correlations between the altered parameters in diabetic patients. These parameters might be used as diagnostic
index in patients with DM. 相似文献

Zinc status was assessed in 53 diabetic patients: 18 insulin-dependent diabetic patients (IDDM), 22 noninsulin-dependent diabetic
patients (NIDDM) treated with oral antidiabetic agents, and 13 insulin-treated, noninsulin-dependent diabetic patients (IRDM).
Plasma zinc concentrations were in the usual range for healthy subjects in these three groups (15.3±0.9 μmol/L). Urinary zinc
excretions were elevated in the IDDM group (18.3±4.1 μmol/24 h;p<0.01 vs normal) and in the NIDDM group (17.5±3.5 μmol/24 h;p<0.01 vs normal), but normal in the IRDM group (11.3±2.4 μmol/24 h). In 14 NIDDM patients treated with transient continuous
sc insulin injections, urinary zinc decreased from 16.5±2.2 μmol/24 h before insulin treatment to 11.5±0.3 μmol/24 h after
insulin treatment without any modification in plasma zinc concentrations. 相似文献

Thyroid autoimmunity in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Effect of age, gender and HLA type 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Type 1 diabetes is often associated with additional autoimmune phenomena. However, data reported on the frequency of thyroid autoimmunity differ vastly. Therefore, the prevalence of thyroid autoantibodies was evaluated at a large pediatric diabetes center in Southern Germany. 2,305 determinations (TPO and TG, ELISA) were performed in 495 patients with type 1 diabetes (234 boys, 261 girls; age at last measurement: 15.4 +/- 0.3 years, duration of diabetes 7. 5 +/- 0.2 years). The prevalence of elevated thyroid antibodies increased dramatically with age: from 3.7% in patients less than 5 years of age up to 25.3% in the age group 15-20 years (p < 0.0001). For children older than 10 years, girls were significantly more affected than boys (p < 0.0001). Thyroid autoimmunity tended to be more prevalent in the subgroup of patients with the HLA type DR3/DR4 compared to patients with other HLA types (p = 0.08). In children older than 10 years, basal TSH concentrations were significantly elevated in antibody-positive patients (p < 0.05). In conclusion, thyroid autoimmunity is prevalent in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Adolescent girls and young women are especially affected. Yearly routine determinations of thyroid antibodies are therefore recommended. 相似文献

The K121Q polymorphism of the ectoenzyme nucleotide pyrophosphate phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) gene has been variably associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in several populations. However, this association has not been studied in Iranian subjects and we hypothesized that the K121Q variant might be associated with T2D and related metabolic traits in this population. The K121Q genotypes were determined by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 377 normoglycemic controls and 155 T2D patients. T2D patients had significantly higher values for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, BMI, glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, apoB, insulin, and HOMA-IR, and lower levels of HDL than the normoglycemic subjects. The frequency of the Q allele did not differ between T2D and normoglycemic subjects (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.90-2.00, P?=?0.70). The Q allele frequency was 16.5% in T2D and 15.2% in normoglycemic subjects. The ENPP1 genotype (KQ?+?QQ) was not associated with the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol, LDL-C and HDL-C, apo B, BMI, HOMA-IR, and insulin levels in both normoglycemic and T2D groups. Our results suggest that the ENPP1 121Q allele might not be associated with T2D and related metabolic traits among Iranian subjects. 相似文献

Background
Ghrelin, a novel endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor, is considered to implicate the development of the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The Leu72Met (+ 408 C > A) polymorphism of the preproghrelin, has been linked to obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes.Objective
To investigate the distribution of ghrelin gene Leu72Met polymorphism and its association with the type 2 diabetes mellitus in Chinese population.Methods
We conducted a case–control study on 877 patients with T2DM and 864 controls, which were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and DNA sequence analysis. Laboratory analyses were carried out in the hospital laboratory.Results
No significant difference in the Leu72Met genotype distributions and allele frequency was observed between type 2 diabetes mellitus and controls (both P > 0.05). The polymorphism was not associated with T2DM. However, among the T2DM group, the patients carrying Leu72Leu genotype had significantly increased levels of FPG and serum creatinine compared with variant genotypes (Leu72Met and Met72Met) (P < 0.05). In the control group, the subjects with variant genotypes had significantly increased levels of FINS, HOMA-IR compared with Leu72Leu genotype (P < 0.05).Conclusion
The Leu72Met polymorphism of the preproghrelin gene was not associated with T2DM in Chinese population. However, it may have some roles in the etiology of insulin resistance. 相似文献12.
Background
We previously found that the empowerment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can be strongly affected by gender and age in addition to self-managed diet and exercise behaviors and treatment. This study was to examine the effects of gender, age, family support, and treatment on the perceived stress and coping of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus living with family.Methods
A survey was conducted of 140 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were living with family. There was no significant difference in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) between male and female. Perceived stress and coping were measured with the Japanese version of the Appraisal of Diabetes Scale and the Lazarus Type Stress Coping Inventory. Stepwise regression analysis and path analysis were performed to identify factors that affect the perceived stress and coping of patients.Results
(1) Perceived stress and coping were strongly affected by gender. (2) Perceived stress and coping were affected by age for males, but perceived stress was not affected by age for females. However, females showed a greater “psychological impact of diabetes” than did males. Females aged between 50 and 69 years engaged in active problem solving, but awareness of diabetes was low. (3) Treatment regimens had an effect on HbA1c for both sexes, and diet therapy affected the awareness of diabetes of males and coping of females. (4) For females, “sense of self-control” was strongly associated with coping, and those who were living with non-spouse family members had a greater psychological impact of diabetes than those living with only their spouse. (5) For males, coping was strongly affected by living with their spouse.Conclusions
The results suggest that perceived stress, coping, and diet regimen are deeply associated with gender and age and that a male with type 2 diabetes mellitus living with his spouse is strongly dependent on support from the spouse. It is important to take into account gender, age, and family environment to provide patients with an individualized approach to addressing perceived stress and to provide education program for coping that can maximize treatment and maintain better, continuous glycemic control.13.

Introduction
The development of common forms of diabetes comes from the interaction between environmental and genetic factors, and the consequences of poor glycemic control in these patients could result in several complications. Metabolomic studies for type 2 diabetes mellitus in serum/plasma have reported changes in numerous metabolites, which might be considered possible targets for future mechanistic research. However, the specific role of a particular metabolite as cause or consequence of diabetes derangements is difficult to establish.Objectives
As type 2 diabetes is a disease that changes the metabolic profile in several levels, this work aimed to compare the metabolomic profiles of type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic participants. In addition, we exploited our family-based study design to bring a better understanding of the causal relationship of identified metabolites and diabetes.Methods
In the current study, population based metabolomics was applied in 939 subjects from the Baependi Heart Study. Participants were separated into two groups: diabetic (77 individuals) and non-diabetic (862 individuals), and the metabolic profile was performed by GC/MS technique.Results
We have identified differentially concentrated metabolites in serum of diabetic and non-diabetic individuals. We identified 72 metabolites up-regulated in type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to non-diabetics. It was possible to recapitulate the main pathways that the literature shows as changed in diabetes. Also, based on metabolomic profile, we separated pre-diabetic individuals (with glucose concentration between 100–125 mg/dL) from non-diabetics and diabetics. Finally, using heritability analysis, we were able to suggest metabolites in which altered levels may precede diabetic development.Conclusion
Our data can be used to derive a better understanding of the causal relationship of the observed associations and help to prioritize diabetes-associated metabolites for further work.14.

The "thrifty genotype" hypothesis proposes that the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Native Americans and admixed Latin Americans has a genetic basis and reflects an evolutionary adaptation to a past low calorie/high exercise lifestyle. However, identification of the gene variants underpinning this hypothesis remains elusive. Here we assessed the role of Native American ancestry, socioeconomic status (SES) and 21 candidate gene loci in susceptibility to T2D in a sample of 876 T2D cases and 399 controls from Antioquia (Colombia). Although mean Native American ancestry is significantly higher in T2D cases than in controls (32% v 29%), this difference is confounded by the correlation of ancestry with SES, which is a stronger predictor of disease status. Nominally significant association (P<0.05) was observed for markers in: TCF7L2, RBMS1, CDKAL1, ZNF239, KCNQ1 and TCF1 and a significant bias (P<0.05) towards OR>1 was observed for markers selected from previous T2D genome-wide association studies, consistent with a role for Old World variants in susceptibility to T2D in Latin Americans. No association was found to the only known Native American-specific gene variant previously associated with T2D in a Mexican sample (rs9282541 in ABCA1). An admixture mapping scan with 1,536 ancestry informative markers (AIMs) did not identify genome regions with significant deviation of ancestry in Antioquia. Exclusion analysis indicates that this scan rules out ~95% of the genome as harboring loci with ancestry risk ratios >1.22 (at P < 0.05). 相似文献

Diabetes Mellitus (DM), a state of chronic hyperglycaemia, is a common disease affecting over 124 million individuals worldwide. In this study, erythrocyte glutathione levels, lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase and some extracellular antioxidant protein levels of patients with type II diabetes mellitus and healthy controls were investigated. Thirty-eight patients (21 males; with age of mean +/- SD, 53.1+/-9.7 years) and 18 clinically healthy subjects (10 males; with age of mean +/- SD, 49.3+/-15.2 years) were included in the study. Levels of erythrocyte lipid peroxidation, serum ceruloplasmin and glucose levels, HbA1C levels, and erythrocyte catalase activity were significantly increased, whereas serum albumin and transferrin levels, erythrocyte glutathione levels, and glutathione peroxidase activity were significantly decreased compared to those of controls. There was no significant difference in superoxide dismutase activity compared to controls. The results suggest that the antioxidant deficiency and excessive peroxide-mediated damage may appear in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between the novel single nucleotide polymorphism, 698C>T that causes an amino acid change from proline to leucine at codon 233 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the Saudi population. From the general population in the Saudi Arabia a total of 551 samples were collected and categorized them as T2DM (n = 376) and healthy controls (n = 175). Five ml of the blood sample was collected and used for the Biochemical and Molecular analysis. With the help of serum sample lipid profile: Fasting blood sugar (FBS), Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglycerides (TG), High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C), Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) and VLDL were performed. PCR–RFLP was performed after separating the genomic DNA from the EDTA blood. The genotype distribution of C698T polymorphism was performed by the Chi square test with SPSS version 16.0 software for comparing T2DM subjects and healthy controls. In our study, genotypic distributions of C5L2 C698T polymorphism and allele frequency of patients and controls were found to be significant difference in the allele and the genotypic distribution. [For T Vs C; p = 0.01; Odds ratio = 3.594 (95 % CI; 1.256–10.28); and CT+TT Vs CC; p = 0.009; Odds ratio = 3.707 (95 % CI; 1.285–10.69)]. TT genotype was completely absent in both the cases and the controls. In conclusion, our study indicates that 698C>T polymorphism of C5L2 gene is associated with the T2DM in individuals of Saudi population which was found to be similar with other studies. 相似文献

Association of 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of insulinase (IDE) gene with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) in the Moscow population has been examined. Three polymorphic markers (rs7078413, rs7899603, and rs551266) associated with the risk of T2D development have been revealed. Allele and genotype frequency distribution for these three markers differed significantly only in the sample of females between T2D patients and control individuals, while only in case of rs7078413 SNP genotype frequencies varied significantly in the total population. 相似文献

Over the last decades, substantial progress has been made in defining the molecular events and relevant tissues controlling insulin action and the potential defects that lead to insulin resistance and later on Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Mitochondrial dysfunction has been postulated as a common mechanism implicated in the development of insulin resistance and T2DM aetiology. Since then there has been growing interest in this area of research and many studies have addressed whether mitochondrial function/dysfunction is implicated in the progression of T2DM or if it is just a consequence. Mitochondria are adjusted to the specific needs of the tissue and to the environmental interactions or pathophysiological state that it encounters. This review offers a current state of the subject in a tissue specific approach. We will focus our attention on skeletal muscle, liver, and white adipose tissue as the main insulin sensitive organs. Hypothalamic mitochondrial function will be also discussed. 相似文献

Insulin resistance plays an important role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the association between four insulin resistance genes (ADIPOQ, LEPR, RETN, and TRIB3) and both T2DM and hypertension. A total of 768 Han Chinese subjects were recruited into this study, including 188 cases who had T2DM alone, 223 cases who had hypertension alone, 181 cases with both T2DM and hypertension, and 176 control subjects with neither T2DM nor hypertension. Twenty-three tag SNPs in four insulin resistance genes were genotyped and analyzed for association with T2DM and hypertension. One intron SNP (rs13306519) in LEPR and one 3′UTR SNP (rs1063537) in ADIPOQ demonstrated a significant association with T2DM (P = 0.024 and 0.014 respectively). Another intron SNP (rs12037879) in LEPR and a promoter region SNP (rs266729) in ADIPOQ were significantly associated with hypertension (P = 0.041 and 0.042, respectively). These associations survived the permutation test (P = 0.023, 0.018, 0.026, and 0.035, respectively). These associations were still found to be significant in the additive model after adjusting for potential confounding factors including age, sex, BMI, HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels (P = 0.024, 0.016, 0.04, and 0.043, respectively). No other gene variants were found to be significantly associated with T2DM or hypertension (P > 0.05). None of the studied gene variants were found to be significantly associated with T2DM+ hypertension (P > 0.05). A significant interaction was observed between two SNPs rs13306519 in LEPR and rs266729 in ADIPOQ for T2DM (P_int = 0.012, OR_int = 2.67) and hypertension (P_int = 0.0041, OR_int = 2.23). These findings suggest that variants in ADIPOQ and LEPR are risk factors for T2DM and hypertension in the Chinese population and that variants in RETN and TRIB3 are not major risk factors for these diseases. 相似文献
