effect of omega-3 supplementation on lipocalin 2 and retinol-binding protein 4 in type 2 diabetic patients
background: serum levels of lipocalin 2 (lcn 2) and retinol-binding protein-4 (rbp 4), increase in type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm). we sought to determine whether serum lcn 2 and rbp 4 change after an intervention with omega-3 fatty acids supplementation in diabetic patients. methods: forty-five type 2 diabetic patients from iranian diabetic association in tehran, iran in 2013 were randomly rec...
متن کاملElevated urinary level of vitamin D-binding protein as a novel biomarker for diabetic nephropathy
Improving the early prediction and detection of diabetic nephropathy (DN) remains a great challenge in disease management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the early detection power of urinary vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP) for the diagnosis of DN. Urine samples were obtained from 45 healthy volunteers and 105 diabetic patients with normoalbuminuria (DM group), microalbuminuria (DN1 grou...
متن کاملLoss of retinol-binding properties for plasma retinol-binding protein in normal human epidermis.
Terminal differentiation of the keratinocytes (cornification) has been linked to a restricted supply of retinol. Retinol is distributed to target cells by the retinol-binding protein (RBP), which circulates in the plasma in complex with transthyretin (TTR). In this study we have addressed the question of retinol delivery to the epidermis via RBP. Retinol radiobinding assays, affinity chromatogr...
متن کاملImbalance of the Nerve Growth Factor and Its Precursor as a Potential Biomarker for Diabetic Retinopathy
Our previous studies have demonstrated that diabetes-induced oxidative stress alters homeostasis of retinal nerve growth factor (NGF) resulting in accumulation of its precursor, proNGF, at the expense of NGF which plays a critical role in preserving neuronal and retinal function. This imbalance coincided with retinal damage in experimental diabetes. Here we test the hypothesis that alteration o...
متن کاملRetinol and retinol-binding protein: gut integrity and circulating immunoglobulins.
Vitamin A (retinol) is required to maintain immunity and epithelial turnover and is a key micronutrient needed for combating infection. Vitamin A actions on the immune system are diverse and cannot be accounted for by a single effect or mechanism. The actions of retinol in maintaining gut integrity in humans and immunoglobulin levels in mice was investigated. For 30 children, performance on the...
