代谢综合征患者血液流变学及多因素相关分析

目的:探讨代谢综合征(MS)患者血液流变学及多因素的相关性。方法:检测49例2型糖尿病(T2DM)和40例MS患者的肥胖指标、血脂、血黏度,并进行比较和相关性分析。结果:(1)MS组的BMI(体重指数),FAT%(体脂百分率),W(腰围),LP(脂蛋白),TG(甘油三酯),TC(总胆固醇),血浆黏度均显著高于T2DM组(p＜0．05);(2)T2DM组的血浆黏度与TC及MS组的W与BMI,FAT%正相关(p＜0．05)。结论:(1)MS较T2DM存在更高的血浆黏度,可能是多因素综合作用的结果。(2)FAT%的测定对中心性肥胖的评估具有一定意义。     

微量白蛋白尿与2型糖尿病合并代谢综合征的相关性

目的:探讨2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者微量白蛋白尿与代谢综合征(MS)的相关性。方法:282例T2DM患者根据是否合并MS分为MS组(163例)和非MS组(119例),测定24h尿白蛋白(UAlb)及相关生化指标,比较两组UAlb水平及糖尿病肾病(DN)患病率,采用多元Logistic回归方法分析T2DM患者微量白蛋白尿的危险因素。结果:MS组的UAlb及DN患病率明显高于非MS组,且随着MS组分增加,UAlb水平显著升高。多元Logistic回归分析表明甘油三酯、糖化血红蛋白、收缩压为影响UAlb的独立危险因素。结论:T2DM患者微量白蛋白尿与MS密切相关,需采取综合干预措施避免或延缓DN的发生发展。     

Loss of TRB3 Alters Dynamics of MLK3-JNK Signaling and Inhibits Cytokine-activated Pancreatic Beta Cell Death

Disabling cellular defense mechanisms is essential for induction of apoptosis. We have previously shown that cytokine-mediated activation of the MAP3K MLK3 stabilizes TRB3 protein levels to inhibit AKT and compromise beta cell survival. Here, we show that genetic deletion of TRB3 results in basal activation of AKT, preserves mitochondrial integrity, and confers resistance against cytokine-induced pancreatic beta cell death. Mechanistically, we find that TRB3 stabilizes MLK3, most likely by suppressing AKT-directed phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and proteasomal degradation of MLK3. Accordingly, TRB3^−/− islets show a decrease in both the amplitude and duration of cytokine-stimulated MLK3 induction and JNK activation. It is well known that JNK signaling is facilitated by a feed forward loop of sequential kinase phosphorylation and is reinforced by a mutual stabilization of the module components. The failure of TRB3^−/− islets to mount an optimal JNK activation response, coupled with the ability of TRB3 to engage and maintain steady state levels of MLK3, recasts TRB3 as an integral functional component of the JNK module in pancreatic beta cells.

Metabolic Changes in Rat Brain After Prolonged Ethanol Consumption Measured by 1H and 31P MRS Experiments

SUMMARY 1. In vivo ¹H and ³¹P magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques were applied to reveal biochemical changes in the rat brain caused by prolonged ethanol consumption.2. Three models of ethanol intoxication were used.3. ¹H MRS showed a significant decrease in the concentration of myo-inositol in the brain of rats fed with 20% ethanol for 8 weeks. This change is consistent with perturbances in astrocytes. On the other hand, N-acetyl aspartate and choline content did not differ from controls.4. ³¹P MRS did not reveal any significant changes in the high-energy phosphates or intracellular free Mg²⁺ content in the brain of rats after 14 weeks of 20% ethanol drinking. The intracellular pH was diminished.5. By means of a ³¹P saturation transfer technique, a significant decrease was observed for the pseudo first-order rate constant k _for of the creatine kinase reaction in the brain of rats administered 30% ethanol for 3 weeks using a gastric tube.6. The ¹H MRS results may indicate that myo-inositol loss, reflecting a disorder in astrocytes, might be one of the first changes associated with alcoholism, which could be detected in the brain by means of in vivo ¹H MRS.7. The results from ³¹P MRS experiments suggest that alcoholism is associated with decreased brain energy metabolism.8. ³¹P saturation transfer, which provides insight into the turnover of high-energy phosphates, could be a more suitable technique for studying the brain energetics in chronic pathological states than conventional ³¹P MRS.     

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor {alpha} is responsible for the up-regulation of hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase gene expression in fasting and db/db Mice

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) is a key enzyme that is responsible for the production of glucose in the liver during fasting or in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). During fasting or in T2DM, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is activated, which may contribute to increased hepatic glucose output. However, the mechanism by which PPARα up-regulates hepatic G6Pase gene expression in these states is not well understood. We evaluated the mechanism by which PPARα up-regulates hepatic G6Pase gene expression in fasting and T2DM states. In PPARα-null mice, both hepatic G6Pase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase levels were not increased in the fasting state. Moreover, treatment of primary cultured hepatocytes with Wy14,643 or fenofibrate increased the G6Pase mRNA level. In addition, we have localized and characterized a PPAR-responsive element in the promoter region of the G6Pase gene. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay revealed that PPARα binding to the putative PPAR-responsive element of the G6Pase promoter was increased in fasted wild-type mice and db/db mice. These results indicate that PPARα is responsible for glucose production through the up-regulation of hepatic G6Pase gene expression during fasting or T2DM animal models.     

趋化因子CX3CL1与冠心病合并2型糖尿病发病的相关关系

目的:探讨趋化因子CX3CL1与冠心病合并2型糖尿病发病的相关关系。方法:采用病例-对照的研究方法,收集冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者400例,收集对照组400例,利用免疫组化检测冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者颈外动脉旋切术后斑块组织中CX3CL1表达水平,分别检测上述2组不同人群血清中的CX3CL1表达水平,同时采用直接测序方法检测CX3CL1基因rs170364位点基因型及等位基因的分布频率在对照组和冠心病合并2型糖尿病人群的分布差异。结果:冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者颈外动脉斑块组织中CX3CL1表达明显增高,冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者血清中CX3CL1的表达水平明显高于对照人群中CX3CL1的表达。CX3CL1基因rs170364单核苷酸多态位点的三种基因型分布频率(GG型,GT型和TT型)在冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者的分布频率为42.7%,40.0%和17.2%,在对照组分布频率为50.2%,39.6%和10.2%,CX3CL1基因rs170364位点T等位基因是冠心病合并2型糖尿病发病的一个独立危险因素(P0.05)。Logistic回归校正性别、年龄、体重指数、吸烟、高血压、高脂血症等冠心病合并2型糖尿病的易患因素后,CX3CL1基因rs170364 T等位基因仍是冠心病合并2型糖尿病发病的一个独立的危险因素。结论:CX3CL1在冠心病合并2型糖尿病的患者血清和颈外动脉动脉血管组织中表达明显增高,CX3CL1基因rs170364T等位基因可能是冠心病合并2型糖尿病患者发病的独立危险因素。     

Metabolic control and chronic complications during a 3-year follow-up period in a cohort of type 2 diabetic patients attended in primary care in the Community of Madrid (Spain)

BackgroundOur aim was to analyze both metabolic control and chronic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) patients regularly attended in primary care during a 3 years of follow-up in the Community of Madrid (Spain).MethodsFrom 2007 to 2010 we prospectively included 3268 patients with T2D attended by 153 primary care physicians from 51 family health centers. An prospective cohort study with annual evaluation over 3 years to the same population was performed. We measured the goals of control in diabetic patients and the incidence of chronic complications of diabetes during the study period.ResultsA significant decrease in serum glucose levels (143 ± 42 mg/dl vs 137 ± 43 mg/dl, p < 0.00), HbA1c (7.09 ± 1.2% vs 7.02 ± 1.2%, p < 0.00), total cholesterol (191.4 ± 38 mg/dl vs 181.5 ± 36 mg/dl, p < 0.00), LDL cholesterol (114.7 ± 31 mg/dl vs 105.5 ± 30 mg/dl, p < 0.00) and triglyceride levels (144.5 ± 93 mg/dl vs 138 ± 84 mg/dl, p < 0.00) during study period was documented. On the contrary, a significant elevation in HDL cholesterol levels was observed (49.2 ± 14 mg/dl vs 49.9 ± 16 mg/dl, p < 0.00). The incidence of diabetic complications throughout the study period was low, with a incidence of coronary heart disease of 6.2%, peripheral arterial disease 3%, ischemic stroke 2.8%, diabetic foot 11.2%, nephropathy 5.9%, retinopathy 4.5%, and neuropathy 3%.ConclusionMetabolic control in T2D patients attended in primary care in the Community of Madrid throughout 3 years is adequate and is accompanied by low percent of chronic diabetic complications during this period of follow-up.
