T-cell cytokine production and endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetic patients with nephropathy.

چکیده
This study assessed changes in serum levels of cytokines IFNgamma and IL-10 (biomarkers of inflammatory changes) and soluble biomarkers sICAM-1 and sE-selectin (biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction) in diabetic patients with and without nephropathy. IFNgamma and IL-10 were significantly elevated in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) compared with controls and diabetic patients without DN. IFNgamma and IL-10 levels were significantly increased after haemodialysis. sICAM-1 and sE-selectin were significantly higher in diabetic, DN and ESRD groups compared with controls, and sICAM-1 but not sE-selectin was increased after haemodialysis.

Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene G894T polymorphism with type two diabetes and diabetic nephropathy
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) produced by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) mediates a large range of processes, and abnormality in the production of NO has been implicated in diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy (DN). G894T polymorphism in the eNOS gene has been shown to decreased activity the NO levels of plasma. The association between eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and DN ri...
متن کاملComparison of Diagnostic Value of Intrarenal Doppler Indices and Microalbuminuria for Detection of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type II Diabetic Patients
Background & Aims: Diabetes is the most common cause of renal insufficiency throughout the world. The main cause of renal failure in diabetic patients is microvascular endothelial injuries that is secondary to atherosclerosis and ischemia. The efficacy of renal Doppler indices such as resistive index (RI) and pulsetile index (PI) for the evaluation of intrarenal arteries has been shown. This st...

OBJECTIVE We evaluated the association of biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and inflammation with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality and morbidity and decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in type 1 diabetic patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We prospectively followed 199 type 1 diabetic patients with diabetic nephropathy and 192 patients with persistent normoalbumi...
متن کاملDiabetic nephropathy and cardiovascular diseases.
Diabetic nephropathy is diagnosed either when persistent increase of urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) above 30 mg/24h in a patient with diabetes was discovered (early or incipient nephropathy) or when UAER values are persistently elevated above 300 mg/24h (overt or clinical nephropathy). In both situations the additional criteria of presence of diabetic retinopathy and the absence of the e...

BACKGROUND Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a chronic microangiopathic complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).Vascular endothelial dysfunction resulting from impaired nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity in the vascular endothelial cells has been suggested as playing an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (E-NOS) gene G894T polym...
