Pro-Atherogenic Oxidized Ldl/β2-Glycoprotein I Complexes in Diabetes Mellitus: Antioxidant Effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the fifth deadliest disease in the United States with an annual economic cost estimated over $100 billion. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents the most life threatening consequence of DM accounting for the death of up to 65% of DM patients. Aggressive efforts aimed at treating and controlling the classic CVD risk factors over the last few decades have brought along a marked reduction in CVD morbidity and mortality in the US, though the morbidity and mortality attributable to CVD from DM and obesity continues to show an upward trend [1,2].

Are Oxidized LDL/β2-glycoprotein I Complexes Pathogenic Antigens in Autoimmune-mediated Atherosclerosis?
The oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in the intima of arteries contributes to the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic lesions. We have previously reported that oxidized LDL (oxLDL) interacts with an endogenous plasma protein, beta2-glycoprotein I (beta2GPI), to form complexes and that the interaction is mediated by oxLDL specific ligands. We have also demonstrat...
متن کاملEndoplasmic Reticulum Stress Links Oxidative Stress to Impaired Pancreatic Beta-Cell Function Caused by Human Oxidized LDL
Elevated plasma concentration of the pro-atherogenic oxidized low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) triggers adverse effects in pancreatic beta-cells and is associated with type 2 diabetes. Here, we investigated whether the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a key player coupling oxidative stress to beta-cell dysfunction and death elicited by human oxidized LDL. We found that human oxidiz...

BACKGROUND To determine whether the levels of b2-glycoprotein I (b2-GPI)/oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) complexes are correlated with cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIAL AND METHODS The levels of β2-GPI/oxLDL complexes, oxLDL, routine lipid/lipoprotein parameters, oxidative stress molecules, and inflammatory factors were measured in 78 health...

Background: Diabetes is the most common metabolic diseases and its vascular complications are main cause of death in diabetic patients. Patients with hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and oxidative stress are prone to diabetes complications. The goal of this study was investigation of the effect of cysteine (Cys) on hyperglycemia, lipid profile, atherogenic index, glyoxal, methylglyoxal, oxidative st...

Both metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and coronary heart events. Lipid abnormalities in MetS and T2DM patients are the major role in atherogenesis development. These lipid disorders include both quantitative and qualitative abnormalities of lipoproteins the potentially atherogenic. Hypertriglyceridemia is the main q...
