摘要
Diabetes mellitus entails significant health problems worldwide.The pathogenesis of diabetes is multifactorial,resulting from interactions of both genetic and environmental factors that trigger a complex network of pathophysiological events,with metabolic and hemodynamic alterations.In this context,inflammation has emerged as a key pathophysiology mechanism.New pathogenic pathways will provide targets for prevention or future treatments.This review will focus on the implications of inflammation in diabetes mellitus,with special attention to inflammatory cytokines.
