Serum concentrations of soluble adhesion molecules are related to degree of hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice 2002 Februrary
To investigate the relationships between serum concentrations of soluble adhesion molecules and hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, or other conventional risk factors in type 2 diabetes, we measured soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), E-selectin (sE-selectin), insulin sensitivity, and conventional risk factors in 150 Japanese type 2 diabetic patients without apparent diabetic macroangiopathy. High serum concentrations of sVCAM-1 and sE-selectin were observed in patients with type 2 diabetes. Serum concentrations of soluble adhesion molecules were not significantly influenced by sex, hypertension, dyslipidemia, or microangiopathy. Spearman correlation showed that sVCAM-1 concentrations correlated significantly with fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting C-peptide, and insulin sensitivity [K index of the insulin tolerance test (K(ITT))] (rho=0.19,0.23, and -0.23, respectively). Soluble E-selectin concentrations correlated significantly with body mass index (BMI), FPG, fasting C-peptide, insulin sensitivity, and triglyceride (rho=0.33,0.42,0.26,-0.48, and 0.29, respectively). Multiple regression analysis showed that FPG, fasting C-peptide, and total cholesterol were independent factors that correlated with sVCAM-1 levels. BMI, FPG, and insulin sensitivity were independent factors that correlated with sE-selectin levels. Serum concentrations of sE-selectin significantly increased associated with clustering of conventional risk factors those obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and current smoking (P<0.01). Thus, sVCAM-1 and sE-selectin levels are related to both hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. Soluble E-selectin levels may be related to obesity, hyperglycemia, and insulin resistance and may reflect the presence of a multiple risk factor clustering syndrome.
