A polymorphism in the promoter of UCP2 gene modulates lipid levels in patients with type 2 diabetes

A G/A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the position -866 of the UCP2 promoter modulates UCP2 expression in adipose tissue and pancreatic beta-cell, and is associated with variations of body mass index (BMI) and insulin secretion in nondiabetic subjects. We investigated associations of this SNP with traits related to obesity, dyslipidemia, and hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. The -866 G/A SNP in the UCP2 promoter was genotyped by PCR/RFLP in 681 type 2 diabetic patients. Increased triglyceride (> or = 1.70 mM), total cholesterol (> or = 6.0 mM) and LDL-cholesterol (> or = 3.35 mM) levels were significantly less frequent in homozygous carriers of the G-allele than in homozygous carriers of the A-allele. Odds ratios for the risk of dyslipidemia in GG vs AA carriers were 0.45, 0.57, and 0.50, for triglyceride, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, respectively (all p<0.007). No genetic effects of this polymorphism on the BMI or on traits related to the severity of hyperglycemia were observed. In conclusion, a common polymorphism in the promoter region of the UCP2 gene modulates triglycerides and cholesterol levels in French Caucasian subjects with type 2 diabetes. The implications of this effect in the evolution of type 2 diabetes and its macrovascular complications deserve to be investigated.     

Effect of exercise therapy on lipid profile and oxidative stress indicators in patients with type 2 diabetes

Background  

Yoga has been shown to be a simple and economical therapeutic modality that may be considered as a beneficial adjuvant for type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study investigated the impact of Hatha yoga and conventional physical training (PT) exercise regimens on biochemical, oxidative stress indicators and oxidant status in patients with type 2 diabetes.     

Comparative analysis of lipid profiles among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,hypertension and concurrent type 2 diabetes,and hypertension: a view of metabolic syndrome

Type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension are independent risk factors for atherosclerotic lesions that are partly linked with dyslipidaemia. This risk is additive when diabetes and hypertension occur concurrently. In order to determine if concurrent type 2 diabetes and hypertension results in putative increases in dyslipidaemia in a Nigerian population, we compared the plasma lipid levels, atherogenic index and prevalence of dyslipidaemia among age and sex-matched indigenous Nigerians with type 2 diabetes, hypertension and concurrent diabetes and hypertension. Age and sex-matched healthy Nigerians that are free of diabetes and hypertension served as controls. The patients as a whole were more likely to have dyslipidaemia than controls (p < 0.05). High-density lipoprotein cholesterol was similar among patients and controls. Mean total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels, atherogenic index and prevalence of dyslipidaemia did not differ significantly among patients with hypertension, diabetes, and concurrent hypertension and diabetes (p = 0.99 for each parameter). It is concluded that concurrent hypertension and type 2 diabetes does not result in a more severe dyslipidaemia than when either of the two conditions occurs in isolation. We attribute this to the common pathogenic link between hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidaemia in metabolic syndrome. Evidence, albeit indirect, of this syndrome among native Africans is, therefore, provided.     

TNF-alpha polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes mellitus in Taiwanese patients

Type 2 diabetic mellitus (type 2 DM) comprises more than 95% of all Taiwanese patients with DM. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) expression is linked with insulin resistance, and is under strong genetic control. The correlation between TNF promoter genotypes and type 2 DM is still controversial, because discrepancies among different studies exist. Ethnic differences play certain roles in these conflicting results, because the distribution of TNF promoter polymorphisms is different among study subjects with different racial origins. Therefore, we examined the relationship between the incidence of type 2 diabetes in Taiwanese and two polymorphisms of the TNF-alpha promoter region (positions -238 and -308) as well as the correlation between these polymorphisms and the patients' biochemical manifestations. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood cells of 261 Taiwanese patients with type 2 DM and 189 non-diabetic control study subjects, and their TNF promoter G-238A and G-308A polymorphisms were analyzed by PCR-RFLP analysis. No significant association between TNF-alpha G-238A and G-308A polymorphisms with type 2 diabetic incidence was observed. However, associations between TNF-alpha G-238A and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and between G-308A promoter polymorphism and high-fasting plasma glucose levels, using multiple linear regression analysis with adjustment for the subjects' age, sex, body mass index and diabetic status, were found. Our results suggested that though TNF-alpha G-238A and G-308A polymorphisms were not involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 DM, type 2 diabetic patients carrying TNFA-A or TNF-308*2 genotype might be more susceptible to diabetic complications such as atherosclerosis.     

Effect of CYP2C9 gene polymorphisms on response to treatment with sulfonylureas in a cohort of Egyptian type 2 diabetes mellitus patients

Oral hypoglycemics are a widely prescribed group of drugs for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sulfonylureas (SUs) are the cornerstone of type 2 diabetes pharmacotherapy. The enzyme cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is the main enzyme that catalyzes the biotransformation of SUs. It is encoded by the polymorphic gene CYP2C9 with two allelic variants namely CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 coding for variant allozymes with reportedly decreased metabolic capacity resulting in decreased SUs clearance and consequently prolonged and exacerbated action. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 on the response to glibenclamide, a second-generation sulfonylurea. Hundred type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled in the study. Genotyping was done on the LightCycler 2 by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) hybridization probe assay. The results are the following: 53 patients were carriers of the wild genotype (CYP2C9*1/*1), 20 were heterozygous for the variant CYP2C9*2 allele (CYP2C9*1/*2), 18 were heterozygous for the variant CYP2C9*3 allele (CYP2C9*1/*3), and 9 were double heterozygous for both mutant alleles (CYP2C9*2/*3); of those double mutant genotype patients, two were also homozygous for the mutant CYP2C9*2 allele (CYP2C9*2/*2) and one patient was homozygous for the mutant CYP2C9*3 allele (CYP2C9*3/*3). Although there was no significant difference in drug dosage between the four groups, there was however a significant association of the CYP2C9*2/*3 genotype with better glycemic control. As conclusion, the better glycemic control observed can probably be attributed to slower metabolism of SUs by the carriers of the CYP2C9*2/*3 genotype and consequently longer half-life or exacerbated effect of the SUs administered.     

2型糖尿病患者的肺弥散功能检测分析(英)

目的：检测2型糖尿病患者的肺通气和弥散功能，探讨肺脏是否为糖尿病慢性病变的靶器官。方法： 对107名2型糖尿病患者行肺通气及弥散功能检测，并与61名年龄、性别匹配的健康者比较。糖尿病患者需行糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）、尿白蛋白排泄率（AER）检测、眼底检查以及神经传导速度检查，以评价血糖控制水平以及糖尿病微血管病变状况。结果： 2型糖尿病组肺通气功能与正常对照组相比，无显著差异。2型糖尿病组一氧化碳弥散量（DLCO）及单位肺泡容积的一氧化碳弥散量（DLCO/VA）较对照组明显降低（P<0.05）。DLCO、DLCO/VA与微血管病变积分呈负相关（r分别为-0.291、 -0.324，P<0.01）。此外，DLCO/VA还与年龄、病程呈负相关（r分别为-0.269、-0.236，P<0.05）。结论： 2型糖尿病患者虽然肺通气功能基本正常，但有弥散功能受损，提示肺脏可能也是糖尿病慢性病变的靶器官之一。     

HLA in Czech adult patients with autoimmune diabetes mellitus: comparison with Czech children with type 1 diabetes and patients with type 2 diabetes

Type 1 diabetes results from an autoimmune insulitis, associated with HLA class II alleles. The evidence about HLA allele association is not clear in patients diagnosed after 35 years of age. In this study we have analyzed HLA alleles of DQB1 and DRB1 genes by sequence specific primer (SSP)‐PCR technique in adult patients with disease onset after 35 years of age. Two hundred and eighty‐one patients were divided into three groups according to the insulin therapy, the level of C peptide (CP), and GAD antibodies (anti‐GAD). Group 1 (type 1 diabetes in adults) was characterized by CP less than 200 pmol/L and anti‐GAD more or less than 50 ng/mL (n = 80). All of them had insulin therapy within 6 months after diagnosis. Group 2 latent autoimmune diabetes mellitus in adults (LADA) was defined by a minimum 6‐month‐long phase after diagnosis without insulin therapy, and was characterized by CP more than 200 pmol/L and anti‐GAD more than 50 ng/mL (n = 70). Group 3 (type 2 diabetes) was characterized by CP more than 200 pmol/L and anti‐GAD less than 50 ng/mL (n = 131). None ever had insulin therapy. In group 1, there was increased frequency of DRB1*04 (45.0% vs. controls 14.1%, OR = 5.0, P < 0.0005) and DQB1*0302 alleles (43.3% vs. controls 11.1%, OR = 6.1, P < 0.00005). There was increased frequency of DRB1*03 and DQB1*0201, and decreased frequency of DQB1*0602 (3.3% vs. controls 20.2%), but it was not significant. In group 2, there was a significantly increased frequency of DRB1*03 only (50.0% vs. controls 21.2%, OR = 3.7, P < 0.05). Compared with children with type 1 diabetes and adults with type 2 diabetes (group 3), we conclude that the presence of predisposing DQB1 alleles in adults with type 1 diabetes decreases with the age, probably due to environmental factors. Only the DRB1*03, but not the DQB1 gene, becomes the main predisposing allele in LADA patients. These findings suggest that the presence of HLA‐DQB1*0302 identifies patients at high risk of requiring insulin treatment. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) in children or adults may have partly different immunogenetic etiopathogenesis than LADA.     

Association between dietary patterns and blood lipid profiles in Korean adults with type 2 diabetes

We aimed to explore the associations of dietary patterns with blood lipid profiles and obesity in adults with type 2 diabetes. The data were obtained from the Forth Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2007-2008. Adults 30 yr or older, from which had both biochemical and dietary data were obtained. Among them, 680 subjects were defined as having diabetes based on criteria of fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL, anti-diabetic treatment, or previously diagnosed diabetes. Dietary data from a 24-hr recall were used to derive dietary patterns by factor analysis. Four dietary patterns by factor analysis were identified: 'Bread & Meat & Alcohol', 'Noodles & Seafood', 'Rice & Vegetables', and 'Korean Healthy' patterns. Serum cholesterol levels in the highest quartile of the 'Bread & Meat & Alcohol' pattern were significantly higher compared with those in the lowest quartile. In addition, total cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the highest quartile of the 'Korean Healthy' pattern were significantly lower after adjusting for potential confounders. Dietary patterns of adults with diabetes were found to be associated with blood lipid profiles. 'Korean Healthy' pattern including whole grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits could thus improve lipid profiles among those with type 2 diabetes.

Laughter regulates gene expression in patients with type 2 diabetes

BACKGROUND: Positive emotions influence endocrinological and immunological response. This study examined the effect of laughter,as an expression of positive emotion, in terms of gene expression changes. METHODS: Using a microarray technique, we analyzed the changes in expression of 18,716 genes from peripheral blood leukocytes in patients with type 2 diabetes, which were induced by laughter. RESULTS: Of the 18,716 genes, 23 genes showed significantly different expression changes after listening to the comic story compared to the lecture. Eight were relatively upregulated and 15 were downregulated 1.5 h after the laughing episode. However, these genes did not include genes that are directly involved in blood glucose metabolism. Among the 23 genes discriminated, all 4 genes encoding proteins involved in the immune response and all 4 signal transduction genes were downregulated. Moreover, it is noteworthy that 5 of the 8 relatively upregulated genes were related to the cell cycle, apoptosis, and cell adhesion. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated that laughter, which is an expression of positive emotion, is linked to gene expression. However, the finding of this study does not allow reasonable interpretation for the regulation of gene expression by laughter. A more focused study is needed that may identify the candidate genes for the association between physical condition and positive emotion.
