BACKGROUND
Microangiopathy is a chronic diabetic complication resulting from metabolic derangements, oxidative stress, and increased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Nigella sativa Linn. is used as an herbal medicine that exerts hypoglycemic, antilipidemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant
Thickening of basement membrane in capillaries and small vessels is a well-known finding and important in the progression of diabetic microangiopathy. To monitor the metabolism of the basement membrane protein collagen type IV (CIV) in diabetes mellitus, serum levels of IgG, IgM and IgA to CIV were
In order to elucidate the factors influencing the development of diabetic vascular complications, a retrospective clinical study was carried out in 255 patients, who had been treated in our diabetes clinic for more than 10 years. The patients were divided into three groups according to their retinal
The differentiation of macrophages into cytokine-secreting foam cells plays a critical role in the development of diabetic angiopathy. J774.1, a murine macrophage cell line, reportedly differentiates into foam cells when incubated with oxidized LDL, ApoE-rich VLDL or WHHLMI (myocardial
OBJECTIVE
To examine the expression of the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54) on the surface of leukocytes and a soluble E-selectin (CD62) level in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) at various stages of diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy.
METHODS
42 patients with newly
Syndrome X is used to describe a constellation of factors that lead to coronary heart disease (CHD): hypertension, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose tolerance, and an abnormality in lipid metabolism. We investigated the relationship between serum levels of C-peptide immunoreactivity (CPR) and
OBJECTIVE
To assess the influence of several variables on serum laminin-P1 (Lam-P1) and to evaluate its usefulness as a serum marker of diabetic microangiopathy.
METHODS
We determined Lam-P1 by serum radioimmunoassay in 121 controls and 176 diabetic patients, 58 type 1 (insulin dependent) and 118
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the markers of endogenous coagulation/fibrinolysis and vascular endothelial cell function, and to assess the relationships between hemostatic parameters and diabetic vascular complications in type 2 diabetic patients.
METHODS
Coagulation and fibrinolysis parameters were
Glucose or other reducing sugars in plasma or tissue fluids react with proteins by a nonenzymatic, post-translational process called glycation or Maillard reaction which leads to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). AGEs are implicated in the multiorgan complications of diabetes
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between diabetes mellitus (DM), mainly type II, with metabolic syndrome (MS) and diabetic nephropathy (DN)/diabetic retinopathy (DR). Based on the analysis of the prevalence of MS, patients with DM were divided into MS and non-MS groups
Vascular complications are the main cause of morbidity in diabetes mellitus. To evaluate lipoprotein and hemostatic parameters and their relationship with clinically detectable microangiopathy, we studied 58 insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients and 60 controls matched for age, sex, and body
OBJECTIVE
Progranulin (PGRN) was recently introduced as a novel marker of chronic inflammatory response in obesity and type 2 diabetes capable of directly affecting the insulin signaling pathway. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between PGRN and type 2 diabetics with microvascular
The oxidative modification of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) plays a central role in the initiation and acceleration of atherosclerosis. Iron plays a part in the formation of highly toxic free radicals such as hydroxide and superoxide anions, which can induce lipid peroxidation. We investigated
The levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, lipoproteins (LP), lipid peroxidation products (LPP), and tissue antioxidants were determined in 49 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), types I and II, at the stage of subcompensation. The study groups were composed of patients with stages II and III
BACKGROUND
Diabetic cardiovascular complication is a major cause of mortality in type 2 diabetic patients. Hyperglycemia markedly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction is common in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and is an early indicator of diabetic vascular disease.
