To investigate the association between complement and inflammatory biomarkers with diabetic nephropathy (DN) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Plasma and urinary complement and inflammatory biomarkers were measured in 115 T2DM patients assigned to one of two groups: with DN (n=48) and without DN (n=67).
The plasma and urinary levels of C3a, C4d, C5a, sC5b-9 and MBL (mannan-binding lectin) were significantly higher in T2DM patients with DN compared to T2DM patients without DN. The plasma levels of IL-10 and INF-γ, as well as the urinary levels of INF-γ and TNF-α in T2DM patients with DN, were significantly higher than T2DM patients without DN. Both urinary MBL and INF-γ were independent risk factors for DN within T2DM patients (OR, 2.35 (95% CI 2.28-2.64) and 1.17 (95% CI 1.15-1.18); =0.000 and 0.016, respectively). The area under the receiver-operating-characteristic-curve for urinary MBL was 0.89, with sensitivity 91% and specificity 83% for DN. The area under the receiver-operating-characteristic-curve for INF-γ was 0.84, with sensitivity 86% and specificity 79% based on cutoff values of 1.42 ng/mg and 5.15 pg/mg, respectively.
This study suggests that urinary INF-γ and MBL levels are independent risk factors with a high predictive power for DN in T2DM patients.
探讨2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者中补体和炎症生物标志物与糖尿病肾病(DN)之间的关联。
对115例T2DM患者进行分组检测血浆和尿液中的补体及炎症生物标志物,分为两组:患有DN的患者(n = 48)和未患DN的患者(n = 67)。
与未患DN的T2DM患者相比,患有DN的T2DM患者血浆和尿液中的C3a、C4d、C5a、sC5b - 9和MBL(甘露聚糖结合凝集素)水平显著更高。患有DN的T2DM患者的血浆IL - 10和INF - γ水平,以及尿液中的INF - γ和TNF - α水平,均显著高于未患DN的T2DM患者。尿液中的MBL和INF - γ均为T2DM患者发生DN的独立危险因素(OR分别为2.35(95%CI 2.28 - 2.64)和1.17(95%CI 1.15 - 1.18);P值分别为0.000和0.016)。尿液MBL的受试者工作特征曲线下面积为0.89,对DN的敏感性为91%,特异性为83%。INF - γ的受试者工作特征曲线下面积为0.84,基于截断值分别为1.42 ng/mg和5.15 pg/mg时,对DN的敏感性为86%,特异性为79%。
本研究表明,尿液INF - γ和MBL水平是T2DM患者发生DN的具有高预测能力的独立危险因素。
