Completed
Conditions
Type2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Blood sample
Registration Number
NCT04107259
Lead Sponsor
Damanhour University
Brief Summary

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the role of extracellular part of insulin regulated aminopeptidase (IRAPe), IL-34, Irisin, and Visfatin in the development of insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Methods: parallel study enrolled 60 non-diabetic control subjects and 60 newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetics, matched for age, body mass index and sex ratio.

Detailed Description

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the role of extracellular part of insulin regulated aminopeptidase (IRAPe), IL-34, Irisin, and Visfatin in the development of insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Methods: parallel study enrolled 60 non-diabetic control subjects and 60 newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetics, matched for age, body mass index and sex ratio. Anthropometric parameters, blood glucose, fasting plasma insulin, insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), IL34, Irisin, IRAPe, Visfatin and glycated hemoglobin were assessed.

Conclusion: IL-34 and Visfatin levels were significantly increased, while both Irisin and IRAPe levels were significantly decreased in patients with type 2 diabetes. Theses aforementioned parameters were significantly correlated with insulin resistance. These findings indicate that, IL-34, Irisin and IRAPe may play a vital role in T2DM and in diabetes associated insulin resistance. Additionally, the investigator's findings proposed that, IRAPe may be a useful and direct marker for detection of insulin resistance state.
