Type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome – adipokine levels and effect of drugs

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a consequence of complex interactions among multiple genetic variants and environmental risk factors. This complex disorder is also characterized by changes in various adipokines. In this study, our objective was to estimate the levels of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin (ALR) in T2DM patients, besides studying the effect of various drugs on their levels. Study participants included 400 diabetic and 300 normal patients from the Department of Endocrinology and Department of B… Show more

“…In addition, surgical stress has a greater impact on serum adiponectin and resistin levels than stress from fasting. In type 2 DM patients, plasma adiponectin levels were lower and plasma resistin levels were higher than normal patients [15,16]. This means that changes in plasma adipocytokine levels influence plasma glucose levels, and that the regulation of plasma glucose in DM patients differs from normal patients.…”

“…25 In this study, patients with DM2 were treated with antidiabetic drugs including sulfonylureas and DPP-4 inhibitors until 1 day before surgery. Because these antidiabetic drugs are reported to elevate plasma adiponectin concentration, [26][27][28] metabolic variables such as adiponectin, leptin, blood glucose and HbA1c were not measured in the present study. Therefore, an influence of reduced H3K9 acetylation at the promoter regions of Dbp in visceral adipose tissue on glucose metabolism could not be evaluated.…”

“…It shows that the adipokine levels are not affected by diabetes only, suggesting that their alterations in T2DM may be due to obesity. Therefore, there might be important links between adiposity and insulin resistance [29].…”
