Differential expressions of SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with type 2 diabetic retinopathy.
Archives of Physiology and Biochemistry 2018 December 21
This study investigated the mRNA and protein levels of SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from type 2 diabetes patients with retinopathy (diabetic retinopathy (DR) patients) (n = 86) and those without retinopathy (n = 103). The mRNA expression of SIRT1 and SIRT3 was found to be significantly higher in diabetic patients with retinopathy compared to those without retinopathy. Notably, protein levels of SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT4 were higher in patients with DR compared with controls after adjusting for diabetes duration and taking metformin (p = .001 for SIRT1; p = .001 for SIRT3; p = .005 for SIRT4). In the logistic model, there was a significant association between SIRT3 and DR (p = .0001) independent of age and sex and hyperglycaemia markers including FBS, HbA1c, and diabetic duration. These findings suggest an emerging role of sirtuins in the pathogenesis of retinopathy, but further studies are necessary to establish this concept.
