High glucose disrupts oligosaccharide recognition function via competitive inhibition: A potential mechanism for immune dysregulation in diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Diabetic complications include infection and cardiovascular disease. Within the immune system, host-pathogen and regulatory host-host interactions operate through binding of oligosaccharides by C-type lectin. A number of C-type lectins recognise oligosaccharides rich in mannose and fucose -sugars with similar structures to glucose. This raises the possibility that high glucose conditions in diabetes affect protein-oligosaccharide interactions via competitive inhibition. Mannose binding lectin, soluble DC-SIGN … Show more

“…These structural changes likely contribute to the altered interaction of C3 with bacteria in hyperglycemic environments. A recent study showed that high glucose inhibited the lectin pathway by inhibiting oligosaccharide recognition, but classical and alternative complement pathway activation were not inhibited in Weislab ELISA-style complement activation assays [56]. We confirmed in CH50 and AP50 assays that serum complement-mediated hemolysis was not altered by elevated glucose (data not shown).…”

“…This is an observation that has not been previously demonstrated in other studies presumably because of lack of power (16;19;21). Patients with poorly-controlled diabetes mellitus are presumed to be immunocompromised because of multiple hyperglycemia-related immune system impairments (3539), and most relevantly may have decreased production of interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by T-cells (40), which may result in increased risk of CMV disease.…”

“…Hyperglykämie hemmt die Produktion von IL-10 von myeloischen Zellen und von TNF-α und Interferon-γ von T Zellen [48]. Die Bindung von Oligosacchariden durch C-Lektin wird durch hohe Glukosekonzentrationen kompetitiv gehemmt, was sich auf viele Funktionen des Immunsystems auswirkt [49]. Für Impfungen von Bedeutung ist die Verwendung von CD20-Antikörpern wie Rituximab oder Ofatumumab, die über zumindest drei verschiedene Mechanismen gleichzeitig wirken und zu einer B-Zell-Depletion führen [56].…”
