The expression of CD36 protein and mRNA were evaluated by flow cytometry and reversal transcription polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. Plasma levels of accumulution of oxidized LDL （oxLDL） were immunosorbent assay （ELISA） method. directly measured by sandwich enzyme-linkedResults Flow cytometry and RT-PCR showed that the mean fluorescence intensity （MFI） of CD36 in monocyte and CD36 mRNA were significantly higher in the PCP and WCP in comparison with healthy controls （P 〈 O. O1 ）. CD36 MFI and mRNA in the PCP were increased by 78% and 36% compared to the WCP. In both groups, CD36 MFI and mRNA were significantly higher in patients with diabetic atherosclerosis in comoparison with those without diabetic atherosclerosis （P 〈0. 05）. No significant difference was found in CDt4 expression between the groups （P〉0. 05 ）. The concentrations of plasma oxLDL were higher in the PCP group compared to WCP and control group （P 〈0. 05 ）, whereas oxLDL average values did not differ significantly between WCP and control groups （P〉0.05 ） . In the WCP and PCP groups, oxLDL levels were higher in patients with diabetic atherosclerosis than those without diabetic atherosclerosis （ P 〈0.05 ）.Conclusions The increased expression of scavenger receptor CD36 may be one of the mechanism of accelerated atherosclerosis in diabetic. The poorly controlled diabetes patients are at higher risk for the vascular complications than the well controlled diabetic patients.展开更多
