Abstract
Inadequate management and control of hyperglycemia predisposes diabetic patients to a wide range of complications. Thus, this opens new windows for exploring and scrutinizing novel candidate biomarkers. This study was designed to scrutinize the relationship between HbA1c, osteocalcin, calcium, phosphorus, and expression levels of miR-143 and miR-145 in individuals with T1DM and explore their correlations and diagnostic potential for T1DM. 120 unrelated participants were included (i.e., 90 participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus and 30 healthy controls) and were allocated into two groups. Participants with T1DM were allocated into three subgroups (i.e., below 1 year, 1-8 years, and over 8 years) based on diabetic duration. Participants with T1DM experienced noticeable HbA1c elevation. However, osteocalcin, phosphorus, and calcium profiles notably declined in participants with diabetes compared with those in healthy controls. Moreover, the expression levels of miR-143 and miR-145 decreased in participants with diabetes with a significant difference between participants with diabetes and healthy controls. Additionally, significant alterations in HbA1c, osteocalcin, phosphorus, and calcium profiles and expression levels of miR-143 and miR-145 were observed with increasing diabetic duration (T1DM > 8 years compared with those with a diabetes duration of less than 1 year). This study suggests that miR-143 and miR-145 are prospective biomarkers of diabetes mellitus, which may help predict the progression of complications.

Unusual effects of PCSK9 E670G (rs505151) variation in patients with in-stent restenosis: Variable effects on restenosis risk according to concomitant chronic conditions. NUCLEOSIDES, NUCLEOTIDES & NUCLEIC ACIDS 2024:1-21.

Abstract
Recent reports showing that neo-atherosclerosis formation in stented coronary artery is characterized by the accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages within the neointima has strengthened the possibility that elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol may be a risk factor for in-stent restenosis (ISR). Protein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin-9 (PCSK9) protein plays an important role in cholesterol metabolism by degrading of LDL receptors. The gain-of-function E670G (rs505151) mutation of the PCSK9 gene is a well-known genetic risk factor for hypercholesterolemia. This study evaluated for the first time the association of the E670G variation with the serum lipids, PCSK9 levels and concomitant diseases on the ISR risk. The study included 109 ISR, and 82 Non-ISR patients, based on the results of coronary angiography. Genotypes were determined using the real-time PCR and serum PCSK9 levels were measured by ELISA technique. The rare G allele of PCSK9 E670G (p < 0.05), hyperlipidemia (HL) (p < 0.001), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) (p < 0.01) were associated with increased risk for ISR. In hyperlipidemic conditions, the E670G-G allele was associated with hypercholesterolemia and a higher risk of ISR (p < 0.001), while the E670G-AA genotype has been associated with a high prevalence of T2DM and hypertension. In addition, diabetic ISRs had higher serum PCSK9 levels (p < 0.05) and the E670G-AA genotype was associated with increased levels of diabetes markers. Our results indicated that the unusual effects of both G allele and AA genotype of the PCSK9 E670G variation may be involved in the risk of ISR in association with concomitant metabolic diseases.

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms as important risk factors of diabetes among Middle East population. Hum Genomics 2022; 16:11.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that leads to the dysfunction of various tissues and organs, including eyes, kidneys, and cardiovascular system. According to the World Health Organization, diabetes prevalence is 8.8% globally among whom about 90% of cases are type 2 diabetes. There are not any significant clinical manifestations in the primary stages of diabetes. Therefore, screening can be an efficient way to reduce the diabetic complications. Over the recent decades, the prevalence of diabetes has increased alarmingly among the Middle East population, which has imposed exorbitant costs on the health care system in this region. Given that the genetic changes are among the important risk factors associated with predisposing people to diabetes, we examined the role of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the pathogenesis of diabetes among Middle East population. In the present review, we assessed the molecular pathology of diabetes in the Middle East population that paves the way for introducing an efficient SNP-based diagnostic panel for diabetes screening among the Middle East population. Since, the Middle East has a population of 370 million people; the current review can be a reliable model for the introduction of SNP-based diagnostic panels in other populations and countries around the world.

Abstract
Pro-protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is secreted mostly by hepatocytes and to a lesser extent by the intestine, pancreas, kidney, adipose tissue, and vascular cells. PCSK9 has been known to interact with the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and chaperones the receptor to its degradation. In this manner, targeting PCSK9 is a novel attractive approach to reduce hyperlipidaemia and the risk for cardiovascular diseases. Recently, it has been recognised that the effects of PCSK9 in relation to cardiovascular complications are not only LDLR related, but that various LDLR-independent pathways and processes are also influenced. In this review, the various LDLR dependent and especially independent effects of PCSK9 on the cardiovascular system are discussed, followed by an overview of related PCSK9-polymorphisms and currently available and future therapeutic approaches to manipulate PCSK9 expression.
