Study of the Pathogenesis of Hypertension Associated with Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus

In order to study the pathogenesis of hypertension associated with noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), Plasma glucose, insulin levels at fasting and following an oral glucose load were measured. Na +K +pump and Ca 2+ pump activities of red blood cell membrane were also assessed. Hypertensive patients with normal or impaired glucose tolerance (NGT, or IGT) had hyperinsulinemia. Obese hypertensive patients also had hyperinsulinemia, while nonobese hypertensive patients had no hyperinsulinemia, but exhibited a delay in insulin response to oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). In multivariate analysis, considering the factors of age, BMI and plasma glucose level, DBP were still positively related to both 30 min insulin level and IAUC, but negatively correlated to activities of Na +K +pump and Ca 2+ pump. These results demonstrated that a link between obesity, hpertension and NIDDM is the insulin resistance and/or hyperinsulinemia.

A Study of Factors Related to the Incidence of Cataract in Patients with Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus

Purpose: To investigate the factors related to the development of cataract in patientswith non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus(NIDDM).Methods: 792 NIDDM patients received ophthalmologic examinations including visualacuity, external status of the eyes, slit lamp microscopy and ophthalmoscopy. Glucose,urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), urine acid (UA), N-acetyl-β2-D-glucosaminidase(NAG), β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) and serum albumin in blood were quantitativelytested. Glucose, pH value, protein, cells, cast and ketobodies in urine were assayed.Diagnosis of cataract was based on lens opacities classification system Ⅱ. Any patientmeeting "NⅡ", "CⅡ" or "PⅡ" level was diagnosed as cataract.Results: The incidence of cataract in this group of NIDDM was 62.37 % (494/792),which significantly related to the duration of the disease course, but not to the sex of thepatient. The occurrence rate of cataract in patients suffering from NIDDM of less thanfive years duration, from five to ten years, and more than ten years was 49.67 % (228/459), 71.84 % (125/174), and 88.68 % (141/159), respectively. The occurrence ofcataract in patients diagnosed of the disease from five to ten years and more than tenyears was much higher than that of those with the course of the disease less than fiveyears( P ＜ 0.05 and P ＜ 0. 001, respectively) . Rising concentrations of blood ureanitrogen, creatinine, glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c(G-HbA1c), N-acetyl-β2-D-glucosaminidase(NAG) and β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) indicated malfunction of thekidneys, and the rate of cataract occurrence in these patients was higher.Conclusion: This study indicates that prolongation of the duration of non-insulindependent diabetes mellitus, renal dysfunction, as well as poor blood glucose control,may accelerate the development of cataract.

The relationship between obese protein and noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus

To explore the role of obese protein (OP), the product of the obese gene, in the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Metbods: Plasma obese protein level was measured by radioimmunoassay in 21 normal subjects, 24 adult obese patients and 20 patients with NIDDM. Results: The levels of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients (81. 0±17. 5 pg/ml) were very significantly lower than those in normal subjects (194. 3±17. 7 pg/ml) and obese patients (109.1±16. 4 pg/ml ) (P<0.01). The levels of the plasma obese protein in non-obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in non-obese normal subjects (P<0.01), and the levels of the plasma obese protein in obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in obese patients (P<0. 01). The leve1s of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients were significantly correlated with polyphagia (P<0.05), but not correlated with the body weight indexes after strict dieting, and the plasma levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting glucose, hemoglobiti A, and the insulin levels during glucose tolerance test (P>0.05). Couclusion: Low plasma level of obese protein is one of the important factors contributing to obesity,and plasma obese protein may be closely related to the generation of NIDDM.

Simultaneous liver, pancreas-duodenum and kidney transplantation in a patient with hepatitis B cirrhosis, uremia and insulin dependent diabetes mellitus

Simultaneous liver,pancreas-duodenum,and kidney transplantation has been rarely reported in the literature. Here we present a new and more efficient en bloc technique that combines classic orthotopic liver and pancreas-duodenum transplantation and heterotopic kidney transplantation for a male patient aged 44 years who had hepatitis B related cirrhosis,renal failure,and insulin dependent diabetes mellitus(IDDM). A quadruple immunosuppressive regimen including induction with basiliximab and maintenance therapy with tacrolimus,mycophenolate mofetil,and steroids was used in the early stage post-transplant. Postoperative recovery was uneventful and the patient was discharged on the 15 th postoperative day with normal liver and kidney function. The insulin treatment was completely withdrawn 3 wk after operation,and the blood glucose level remained normal. The case findings support that abdominal organ cluster and kidney transplantation is an effective method for the treatment of end-stage liver disease combined with uremia and IDDM.

Modified upper abdominal cluster transplantation in patients with end-stage liver diseases associated with insulin dependent type 2 diabetes mellitus

Objective Modified upper abdominal cluster transplantation ( MCT) ,which was inspired by classical cluster transplant technique,has been proven more effective and feasible in the treatment of patients with end stage liver diseases associated with insulin - dependent

Elevated alanine aminotransferase activity is not associated with dyslipidemias,but related to insulin resistance and higher disease grades in non-diabetic non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Objective:To explore demographic and metabolic factors associated with increased alanine aminotransferase(ALT)activity in non-diabetic non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)patients.Methods:Overall 372 patients who consecutively attended to Gastroenterology Clinic of Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences,Tehran,Iran awere diagnosed as NAFLD entered into analysis.Exclusion criteria were having diabetes mellitus and fasting blood glucose over126 mg/dL,active hepatitis B virus infection,having hepatitis C virus positive serology,and to be under corticosteroid therapy.ALT levels were considered pathologically high when it was over30 IU/L for men and over 19 IU/L for women.Results:Bivariate analyses using t test and chisquare test showed that patients with pathologically augmented ALT levels had significantly higher NAFLD grades in their ultrasonographic evaluations(P=0.003).Moreover,these patients represented significantly higher homeostatic model assessment levels(P=0.003),levels of serum insulin(P=0.002),fasting blood glucose(P<0.001),and uric acid(P=0.02).The prevalence of insulin resistance was also higher in patients with increased serum ALT concentrations.Multifactorial logistic regression models showed that ultrasonographic grading of NAFLD(P=0.027)and insulin resistance(P=0.013)were the only variables significantly associated with abnormal ALT levels.Conclusions:This study shows that the associations of increased ALT serum levels in NAFLD patients are different from what are supposed before.By excluding diabetic patients from our population,we find that increased ALT levels are not associated with dyslipidemias but are independently associated with insulin resistance and NAFLD grading on ultrasonographic evaluations.Further studies are needed to confirm our results.

Insulin producing cells established using non-integrated lentiviral vector harboring PDX1 gene

AIM: To investigate reprogramming of human adipose tissue derived stem cells into insulin producing cells using non-integrated lentivirus harboring PDX1 gene.METHODS: In this study, human adipose tissue derived stem cells(hADSCs) were obtained from abdominal adipose tissues by liposuction, selected by plastic adhesion, and characterized by flow cytometric analysis.Human ADSCs were differentiated into adipocytes and osteocytes using differentiating medium to confirm their multipotency. Non-integrated lentiviruses harboring PDX1(Non-integrated LV-PDX1) were constructed using specific plasmids(pLV-HELP, pMD2G, LV-105-PDX1-1).Then, hADSCs were transduced with non-integrated LVPDX1. After transduction, ADSCsPDX1+were cultured in high glucose DMEM medium supplement by B27, nicotinamide and βFGF for 21 d. Expressions of PDX1 andinsulin were detected at protein level by immunofluorescence analysis. Expressions of PDX1, neurogenin3(Ngn3), glucagon, glucose transporter2(Glut2) and somatostatin as specific marker genes were investigated at mRNA level by quantitative RT-PCR. Insulin secretion of hADSCsPDX1+in the high-glucose medium was detected by electrochemiluminescence test. Human ADSCsPDX1+were implanted into hyperglycemic rats.RESULTS: Human ADSCs exhibited their fibroblast-like morphology and made colonies after 7-10 d of culture.Determination of hADSCs identified by FACS analysis showed that hADSCs were positive for mesenchymal cell markers and negative for hematopoietic cell markers that guaranteed the lack of hematopoietic contamination. In vitro differentiation of hADSCs into osteocytes and adipocytes were detected by Alizarin red and Oil red O staining and confirmed their multilineage differentiation ability. Transduced hADSCs+PDX1became round and clusters in the differentiation medium. The appropriate expression of PDX1 and insulin proteins was confirmed using immunocytochemistry analysis.Significant expressions of PDX1, Ngn3, glucagon, Glut2and somatostatin were detected by quantitative RTPCR. hADSCsPDX1+revealed the glucose sensing ability by expressing Glut2 when they were cultured in the medium containing high glucose concentration. The insulin secretion of hADSCsPDX1+in the high glucose medium was 2.32 μU/mL. hADSCsPDX1+implantation into hyperglycemic rats cured it two days after injection by reducing blood glucose levels from 485 mg/dL to the normal level.CONCLUSION: Human ADSCs can differentiate into IPCs by non-integrated LV-PDX1 transduction and have the potential to be used as a resource in type 1 diabetes cell therapy.

AIM:To investigate into the changes in bone mineral density(BMD)in patients with Type 2diabetes mellitus.METHODS:BMD of lumbar ver-tebrae 2-4and femur in 63cases of patients with type 2diabetes mel-litus were measured with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA)and were compared with age,sex and BMI-m atched normal control group.RESULTS:No significant differences were fou nd in BMD of lumbar vertebrae 2-4in female of menopause with Type 2diabetes mellitus(P>0.05),but BMD of total were lower than that of the controls(P<0.05),BMD of neck were significantly lowe r than that of the controls(P<0.01);No significant differences were fo und in BMD of L 2-4 and femur in male of 50years old above with Type2diabetes mellitus(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:BMD of Type 2diabetes mellitus is dif ferent according to different sex,BMD of female of menop ause with type 2diabetes mellitus were descended easily,especially i n areas of neck BMD,it should cause to pay attention to in order to prevent p athologic bone fracture;BMD of male of 50years old above with Type 2diabetes mellitus have no the obvious changes than that of the controls.

CHANGES OF NAILFOLD MICROCIRCULATION IN PATIENTS OF TYPE II DIABETES MELLITUS WITH DIABETIC RETINOPATHY

Objective. To study the changes of microcirculation in patients with diabetic retinopathy(DR). Methods. Examination were performed in 153 cases of type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus, among them, 72 cases were male, 81 cases were female, mean age 57.0±10.0 years, mean disease course 8.2±7.5 years. All cases were examined fundi by ophthalmologist, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAE) in 24 hours was measured by radioimmunoassay. Moreover, we examined the blood glucose, blood pressure, blood viscosity and observed the changes of naifold microcirculation. Results.It was found that there were more evident disturbance of microcirculation, markedly slowed velocity of blood flow(P<0.05), significantly increased aggregation of blood cells(P<0.05) and exudation around the loop(P<0.05) in the group with DR, compared with the group without DR. Conclusion. It was more evident disturbance of nailfold microcirculation in patients with diabetic retinopathy.

CLINICAL ANALYSIS OF 52 CASES OF JUVENILE DIABETES MELLITUS

The clinical significance of 52 cases of juvenile diabetes mellitus is reported in the article.The ratio of male to female was 1:2.5. 21.2% had the episode of infection prior to the onset of the disease;6.5% had positive family history.It is suggested from the article that more attention should be paid to nontypical cases which would incur misdiagnosis and improper treatment;and it might be necessary to differentiate the ketoacidosis from just positive ketonuria reaction. As for the latter,insulin hypodermic injection probably is more feasible than intravenous effusion.

Association Studies of 3 Candidate Genes with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Chinese Population

Objectives To explore the relationship between the polymorphisms of the selected short tandem repeats (STRs) of the candidate genes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) in a Chinese population,the role of genetic and environmental factors in the development of type 2 diabetes. Methods STRs including D11S916 of uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) gene,binucleotide repeat (CA)n within intron 6 [HSLi6(CA)] of hormone-sensitive lipase(HSL)gene and D20S501 of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B)gene polymorphisms were detected, by poiymerase chain reaction(PCR) ,poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining in 106 patients with type 2 DM and 102 control subjects. Results The allele distribution of UCP3 and HSL gene differed significantly between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects (X2 = 26. 12,P<0. 005; X2 = 10. 33,P<0. 005,respectively). For UCP3 and HSL gene,the frequencies of alleles A6,A7,A8 and allele B9 were much higher in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 020,P<0. 005; 0. 109 vs 0. 015,P <0. 005; 0. 033 vs 0. 000,P<0. 05; 0. 033 vs 0. 005,P<0. 05,respectively),while the frequencies of allele A1 and allele B5 were lower in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 206,P<0. 005; 0. 057 vs 0. 118,P<0. 05,respectively). At D20S501 locus,The allele distribution of PTP-1B gene had no significant difference in two groups (X2 = 3. 77, P>0. 05). Multi-variate logistic regression analysis showed positive correlation between alleles A6,A7 of UCP3 gene,systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B, lipoprotein (a) and type 2 diabetes. Conclusion Our data show that D11S916 of UCP3 gene and HSLi6(CA) of HSL gene polymorphisms are associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese suggesting that UCP3 and HSL might represent susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes. D20S501 of PTP-IB gem polymorphism is not associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese. Alleles A6, A7 of UCP3 gene, systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B,Upoprotein (a) may play some role in the development of type 2 diabetes.

Case-control analysis of the <i>ERAP1</i>polymorphism rs30187 in Italian type 1 diabetes mellitus patients

Autoimmune diseases are a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting different organs and tissues whose incidence are increasing worldwide. New tools, such as genome-wide association studies, have provided evidence for new susceptibility loci and candidate genes in the disease process including common susceptibility genes involved in the immunological synapse and T cell activation. Close linkages have been found in a number of diseases, including ankylosing spondylitis, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (Type 1 diabetes mellitus). The evidence for some associations with Type 1 diabetes was previously found in the region containing 5q15/ERAP1 (endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1) (rs30187, ARTS1). Our aim was to conduct the first casecontrol study to test the association between the rs30187 polymorphism of ERAP1 and the development of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in patients selected from continental Italy. All control subjects were matched for the sex, age, ethnic origin and geographical area. Genotyping of the rs30187 polymorphism of ERAP1 was carried out by the allelic discrimination assay on DNA extracted from whole blood. We did not observe a statistically significant prevalence of the rs30187 polymorphism of ERAP1 in our cohort of patients than in controls suggesting a minor contribution of this gene to the pathogenesis of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in Italian patients.

Novel nervous and multi-system regenerative therapeutic strategies for diabetes mellitus with mTOR

Throughout the globe,diabetes mellitus（DM） is increasing in incidence with limited therapies presently available to prevent or resolve the significant complications of this disorder.DM impacts multiple organs and affects all components of the central and peripheral nervous systems that can range from dementia to diabetic neuropathy.The mechanistic target of rapamycin（m TOR） is a promising agent for the development of novel regenerative strategies for the treatment of DM.m TOR and its related signaling pathways impact multiple metabolic parameters that include cellular metabolic homeostasis,insulin resistance,insulin secretion,stem cell proliferation and differentiation,pancreatic β-cell function,and programmed cell death with apoptosis and autophagy.m TOR is central element for the protein complexes m TOR Complex 1（m TORC1） and m TOR Complex 2（m TORC2） and is a critical component for a number of signaling pathways that involve phosphoinositide 3-kinase（PI 3-K）,protein kinase B（Akt）,AMP activated protein kinase（AMPK）,silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1（Saccharomyces cerevisiae）（SIRT1）,Wnt1 inducible signaling pathway protein 1（WISP1）,and growth factors.As a result,m TOR represents an exciting target to offer new clinical avenues for the treatment of DM and the complications of this disease.Future studies directed to elucidate the delicate balance m TOR holds over cellular metabolism and the impact of its broad signaling pathways should foster the translation of these targets into effective clinical regimens for DM.

实验性NIDDM大鼠模型及其胰岛素抵抗的初步研究

采用中剂量链脲佐菌素（３０ｍｇ／ｋｇ，ｑｄ×３）腹腔内注射及肥甘饮食持续喂养１０周的方法，模拟实验性ＮＩＤＤＭ大鼠模型，观察到该模型不仅有多饮、多食、多尿、超重、高血糖、高血脂的特点，而且还有高胰岛素血症和胰岛素抵抗的特征，其胰岛素抵抗表现为相对胰岛素敏感性、基础的和胰岛素刺激的脂肪细胞葡萄糖氧化能力显著降低。研究结果提示，该模型具有Ⅱ型糖尿病的临床特点和病理特征，尤其是存在受体和受体后缺陷所致胰岛素抵抗的特征，是实验研究中医药对胰岛素抵抗的影响的较好载体。

实验性NIDDM大鼠的胰岛素抗性

采用放射免疫分析及放射配基受体分析,观察实验性NIDDM大鼠血清胰岛素、红细胞中cAMP以及红细胞胰岛素受体最大结合力。结果表明链脲霉素与高热量饲料诱发的NIDDM大鼠有明显的胰岛素抗性,即在高胰岛素水平(25.29±8.34μU/ml,P<0.001)的同时伴有明显的糖耐量减低(P<0.001)及高脂血症(血清甘油三脂2.15±0.66mmol/L,P<0.001;血清胆固醇2.82±0.44mmol/L,P<0.001)。实验还进一步表明这种胰岛素抗性与红细胞胰岛素受体最大结合力的降低(693.51±149.55cpm/10~5红细胞,P<0.001)一致。据此推测胰岛素受体结合力的降低可能是NIDDM胰岛素抗性的主要原因。

Effects of Supplemented Taohe Chengqi Decoction (桃核承气汤) in Treating Insulin Resistance in Rats with Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus

Objective: To investigate the effect of supplemented Taohe Chengqi Decoction (桃核承气汤,STHCQD) in treating non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Methods: The model of rats withNIDDM was formed with injection of streptozotocin and fed on high calorie diet to study the effects of STHCQDon the release of insulin sensitivity. Results: (l ) Fasting serum glucose, serum insulin, intake of food and waterwere significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 -- 0. 01 ) in STHCQD-treated diabetic rats as compared with untreated diabetic rats, while the insulin sensitivity was significantly increased (P < 0. 05 ). (2) The liver cell membranesfrom STHCQD-treated diabetic rats released the quantity of insulin receptor which inhibited adenylate cyclaseactivity, but this effect was blunted in untreated diabetic rats (P < 0. 05). (3) A significantly increased glucoseoxidation in adipocyte of STHCQD-treated diabetic rats was found as compared with those of untreated diabeticrats (P< 0. 05). Conclusions: STHCQD therapy Increased sensitivity and responsiveness of target cells to insulin, i. e. it might decrease insulin resistance at receptor sites and POst--receptor sites in rats with NIDDM, butcould not.reverse the insulin resistance.

84例NIDDM辨证分型与IR Glucagon的关系

非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病（ＮＩＤＤＭ）的病因目前尚不十分清楚，近年的研究表明，胰岛素抵抗（Ｉｎｓｕｌｉｎｒｅｓｉｓｔａｎｃｅ，ＩＲ）、胰升糖素（Ｇｌｕｃａｇｏｎ）分泌异常与ＮＩＤＤＭ的发生、发展密切相关。笔者观察了８４例ＮＩＤＤＭ患者临床辨证分型的情况及其与胰岛素抵抗、胰升糖素分泌异常的关系，并与正常组作了对比。结果表明：①气阴两虚型是ＮＩＤＤＭ的常见证型。阴虚热盛型、气阴两虚型与阴阳两虚型均存在胰岛素抵抗和胰升糖素分泌异常，但各证型在程度上存在不同，提示各证型有着不同的病理生理特点。②对气阴两虚型的进一步观察证实，即使是同一证型，由于兼挟证的不同，其病理生理改变亦存在不同。气阴两虚兼燥热偏盛型其胰岛素抵抗、胰岛素分泌缺陷和胰升糖素分泌异常均较气阴两虚非燥热偏盛型更为明显。提示燥热偏盛与上述三者的改变有一定的联系。

线粒体基因突变与NIDDM发生的关系

采用ＰＣＲ－ＳＳＣＰ、ＰＣＲ－ＲＦＬＰ及ＰＣＲ产物直接测序等技术对９０例ＮＩＤＤＭ（即非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病）及８０例正常对照个体的血细胞线粒体ＤＮＡ进行了突变分析。结果在２例患者中发现线粒体ＤＮＡ（ｍｉｔｏｃｈｏｎｄｒｉａｌＤＮＡ，ｍｔＤＮＡ）ＮＤ１（ＮａＤＨＤｅｈｙｄｒｏｇｅｎａｓｅｓｕｂｕｎｉｔＩ）基因上３３１６位点存在Ｇ→Ａ的点突变，导致丙氨酸错义突变成苏氨酸，而在８０例正常对照个体中均不存在此位点突变。国内外已证实的和１５％ＮＩＤＤＭ发生有关的ｍｔＤＮＡｔＲＮＡＬｅｕ［（ＵＵＲ）］基因上３２４３位点Ａ→Ｇ的突变在本实验中并未发现。由此推断，３３１６位点Ｇ→Ａ的突变可能与ＮＩＤＤＭ的发生有关，３２４３位点Ａ→Ｇ的突变率确实很低，可见糖尿病的发生在线粒体遗传上具有广泛的异质性。
