چکیده

AIMS/INTRODUCTION A soluble form of the leptin receptor (soluble Ob-R) in the circulation regulates leptin's bioactivity, and is inversely associated with body adiposity and circulating leptin levels. However, no study has examined the clinical impact of soluble Ob-R on glucose metabolism in diabetes. The present study aimed to investigate the association of plasma soluble Ob-R levels with insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell function in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 289 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes were included in the present study. Fasting plasma soluble Ob-R levels and plasma leptin levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell function were estimated by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function and fasting C-peptide index. RESULTS The median plasma soluble Ob-R level and plasma leptin level were 3.4 ng/mL and 23.6 ng/mL, respectively. Plasma soluble Ob-R levels were negatively correlated with homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function and the C-peptide index, whereas plasma leptin levels were positively correlated with each index in univariate analyses. Multivariate analyses including plasma soluble Ob-R levels, plasma leptin levels and use of sulfonylureas, along with age, sex, body mass index and other covariates, showed that soluble Ob-R levels were independently and negatively associated with homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function and the C-peptide index, but not significantly associated with homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance. CONCLUSIONS Plasma soluble Ob-R levels are independently associated with pancreatic β-cell function, but not with insulin resistance, in patients with type 2 diabetes. The present study implicates the role of soluble Ob-R in pancreatic β-cell dysfunction in type 2 diabetes.

Impact of Magnesium Deficiency on Pancreatic β-Cell Function in Type 2 Diabetic Nigerians

Objective: Pancreatic b-cell dysfunction is described to be present at the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and progressively deteriorated with disease duration. However, its progression is variable and potentially influenced by several factors. The Magnesium (Mg) deficiency mediates insulin resistance but reports regarding its role in pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are scarce and co...

Plasma leptin level is associated with cardiac autonomic dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes: HSCAA study

BACKGROUND It has been shown that visceral fat accumulation is associated with autonomic dysfunction, though the precise mechanism remains unclear. A recent basic study found that leptin can directly modulate autonomic function through the dorsomedial hypothalamus in relation to obesity. Here, we investigated the mutual relationships among plasma leptin, visceral fat accumulation, and cardiac a...

بررسی ارتباط بین پلی‌مورفیسم A ۲۵۴8-G در پروموتر ژن لپتین با سطح لپتین پلاسما و استعداد ابتلا به دیابت نوع 2

Introduction: Leptin, the obese (ob) gene product, is a cytokine-like hormone secreted mainly from adipose tissue acting on a receptor site in the hypothalamus to inhibit food intake and stimulate energy expenditure. A G-2548G polymorphism in the leptin gene promoter has a strong influence on leptin gene expression and adipose tissue secretion. The aim of this study was to examine the associati...
