Increased Oxidative DNA Damage in Lean Normoglycemic Offspring of Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Abstract: Main finding of our study was the presence of increased oxidative DNA damage in lean normoglycemic offspring of Type 2 diabetic patients. There is a need for further clinical studies in order to explain whether oxidative stress is present in genetically predisposed subjects and induces the insulin resistance.

“…Oxidative stress is the pathogenic constituent in diabetic endothelial dysfunction. Moreover, overweight and obesity may induce oxidative stress too [22]. In our study, all subjects had overweight, but only MPO and SOD enzymes in subjects with IR and without IR were different.…”

“…Larger cohort studies are required to determine the influence of duration of IFG that can lead to oxidative DNA damage by determining the activity of additional oxidative stress and inflammatory markers including catalase enzyme activity and protein oxidation as well as NADPH. 34,35 Conclusion We propose that preclinical atherosclerosis is associated with raised BGL (below 6.1 mmol/l), normal cholesterol with no significant lipid peroxidation but an increased TG level, which results in increased 8-OHdG but normal GSH. Medications such as antihypertensive medication or statins do not protect endothelial cells from free-radical damage in our model.…”

“…ROS if not controlled by antioxidant systems can affect mitochondrial function, DNA integrity, and protein folding that result in cell death [121,123,129,134138]. Studies have associated oxygen free radical production with DNA damage in diabetic patients [139,140], mitochondrial injury and aging mechanisms [137,141,142], and nutritional impairment [143]. …”
