Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Combined metformin and sitagliptin effect on expression levels of proteins involved in insulin resistance IRS-1/PI3K/Akt/mTOR/GLUT4. Timepoint: Measuring the proteins involved in insulin resistance at the beginning of the study (before metformin and citagliptin therapy) and in 90 days (3 months) of drug use (after treatment with metformin and sitagliptin). Method of measurement: How to measure these proteins using SDS-PAGE and Western blotting.
