Netrin-1 is presumed to have regenerative, angiogenic and anti-inflammatory properties, thus it could play a substantial role in the development of insulin resistance and T2DM.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between serum netrin-1 levels and carbohydrate disturbances in patients with obesity.
Sample size consisted of 163 patients, divided into four groups: obesity without carbohydrate disturbances prediabetes and diabetes and healthy controls Netrin-1 level was determined using ELISA method.
Circulating serum Netrin-1 was significantly lower in patients only with obesity, as well as with those with prediabetes and diabetes in comparison to the control group. Correlation analysis revealed that netrin-1 correlates negatively with BMI, waist, WSR, LDL and positive with sudomotor function. Netrin-1 ≤ 0.17 ng/ml has about 3 fold higher risk for carbohydrate disturbances (OR 3.06, 95% CI 1.48-6.34, = .003).
Netrin-1 is associated with an increased risk for glycaemic disorders in patients with obesity.
轴突导向因子 1（Netrin-1）被认为具有再生、血管生成和抗炎特性，因此它可能在胰岛素抵抗和 T2DM 的发展中起重要作用。
本研究旨在评估肥胖患者血清 Netrin-1 水平与碳水化合物紊乱之间的关系。
样本量由 163 例患者组成，分为四组：肥胖无碳水化合物紊乱、前驱糖尿病和糖尿病以及健康对照组。采用 ELISA 法测定 Netrin-1 水平。
与对照组相比，仅肥胖患者以及前驱糖尿病和糖尿病患者的循环血清 Netrin-1 水平显著降低。相关性分析显示，Netrin-1 与 BMI、腰围、WSR、LDL 呈负相关，与出汗功能呈正相关。Netrin-1≤0.17ng/ml 发生碳水化合物紊乱的风险增加约 3 倍（OR 3.06，95%CI 1.48-6.34，P=0.003）。
Netrin-1 与肥胖患者的血糖紊乱风险增加相关。
