Abstract
Opisthorchis viverrini infection and the subsequent bile duct cancer it induces remains a significant public health problem in Southeast Asia. Opisthorchiasis has been reported to cause reduced plasma glucose levels among infected patients. The underlying mechanism for this phenomenon is unclear. In the present study, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that O. viverrini exploits host cholangiocyte glucose transporters (GLUTs) in a similar manner to that of rodent intestinal nematodes, to feed on unabsorbed glucose in the bile for survival. GLUT levels in a cholangiocyte H69 cell line co-cultured with excretory-secretory products of O. viverrini were examined using qPCR and immunoblotting. GLUT 8 mRNA and expressed proteins were found to be downregulated in H69 cells in the presence of O. viverrini. This suggests that O. viverrini alters glucose metabolism in cells within its vicinity by limiting transporter expression resulting in increased bile glucose that it can utilize and potentially explains the previously reported anti-insulin effect of opisthorchiasis.

BMC Endocr Disord 2021; 21:124. [PMID: 34134670 PMCID: PMC8207623 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-021-00788-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although there is abundant evidence indicating the relative contribution of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and β-cell dysfunction (HOMA-β) among first-degree relatives (FDRs) of Type 2 DM patients, few studies reported the association between HOMA-IR and HOMA-β with metabolic syndrome. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of metabolic syndrome factors on HOMA-IR, HOMA-β and glycoproteins in non-diabetic FDRs. METHODS In this study, 103 Yemeni male subjects aged 25-42 years, with BMI < 25 kg/m2 were examined, 39 of whom were normal subjects with no family history of diabetes served as control and 64 subjects were non-diabetic FDRs of Type 2 DM patients. RESULTS Both glycoproteins, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and fructosamine as well as insulin, HOMA-IR and HOMA-β were significantly (p = 4.9 × 10-9; 6.0 × 10-8; 6.6 × 10-12; 1.3 × 10-7; 5.5 × 10-12, respectively) higher in non-diabetic FDRs as compared to control group. Fasting plasma glucose, though within normal range, were significantly (p = 0.026) higher in non-diabetic FDRs. Linear regression analysis showed that both TG and WC are the main metabolic syndrome factors that significantly increased HOMA-IR (B = 0.334, p = 1.97 × 10-6; B = 0.024, p = 1.05 × 10-5), HOMA-β (B = 16.8, p = 6.8 × 10-5; B = 0.95, p = 0.004), insulin (B = 16.5, p = 1.2 × 10-6; B = 1.19, p = 8.3 × 10-6) and HbA1c (B = 0.001, p = 0.034; B = 0.007, p = 0.037). CONCLUSION Triglyceride and WC are the important metabolic syndrome factors associated with insulin resistance, basal β-cell function and insulin levels in non-diabetic FDR men of Type 2 DM patients. Moreover, FDRs showed insulin resistance with compensatory β-cell function (hyperinsulinaemia) suggesting that insulin resistance precede the development of pancreatic β-cell dysfunction in individuals at risk of Type 2 DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several studies reported high number of metabolic disorder among First Degree Relatives (FDR) of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), only a few studies analyzed the impact of gender on the occurence of metabolic abnormalities. AIMS This study aimed to investigate the first manifestation of metabolic abnormalities in normoglycemic FDR of T2DM. METHODS AND MATERIALS This cross-sectional study recruited 60 FDR of T2DM age of 19-39 years old in Jakarta, Indonesia. We matched 60 non-FDR as controls. All participants had neither glucose intolerance nor hypertension. Anthropometry, body composition and laboratory measurements (blood glucose, HbA1c, lipid profile, liver and kidney function test) were assessed. RESULTS In males, FDR aged 30-39 years old had higher Total Cholesterol (TC) level ([233 ± 51.43 mg/dL vs. 177.83 ± 22.08 mg/dL, p = 0.036] and Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) level [173.83 ± 39.83 mg/dL vs. 125.67 ± 21.50 mg/dL, p = 0.026] than those of non-FDR significantly. FDR also had higher risk of hypercholesterolemia than non-FDR [OR 5.25 (1.09-25.21)]. There were no differences of metabolic abnormalities between female FDR and non-FDR group. CONCLUSION Male FDR of T2DM showed higher level of TC and LDL-C level than those of non FDR. Male FDR also showed higher risk of dyslipidemia.

Abstract
AIM We aimed at assessing cardiovascular risk of first degree relatives of diabetes (FDRD). METHODS A cross sectional study involving 90 apparently healthy normoglycemic volunteers aged between 15 and 50 years (45 FDRD and 45 FDRs of non-diabetics). We measured anthropometric parameters, baroreflex sensitivity, heart rate variability, cardiac autonomic function tests, and aerobic capacity, fasting blood glucose and insulin, lipid profile, inflammatory markers, nitric oxide and oxidative stress markers. RESULTS FDRD had significantly higher hip circumference and BF%. Blood pressure, total peripheral resistance and cardiac output were comparable. FDRD had higher HR and rate pressure product. There were no significant differences in cardio-respiratory fitness (VO2max) and physical activity level. Time and Frequency domain parameters were comparable except for reduced NN50 and total power. Baroreflex sensitivity, 30:15 ratio and E: I ratio were significantly less in FDRD. Fasting glucose was comparable. Fasting Insulin, HOMA IR, HOMA %B and HOMA AD were higher while HOMA %S and QUICKI index were lower in FDRD. Lipid profile or lipid derived parameters were comparable except for higher non-HDLc in FDRD. Adiponectin was lower while Leptin and Leptin/apidonectin ratio was higher in FDRD. IL-6, hsCRP, TNF- alpha and MDA were significantly higher in FDRD, while TAS and nitric oxide were significantly lower in FDRD. CONCLUSION Higher body fat percentage, with insulin resistance, deranged cardiac autonomic function, higher oxidative stress and inflammation, lower adiponectin and nitric oxide levels places FDRD at higher cardiovascular risk and necessitates early lifestyle modification/intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the serious non communicable diseases worldwide. Presence of DM patient in a family may be considered as risk factor for other family members to acquire the disease, due to DM inheritance nature and/or similar life style pattern among family members. This paper assessed awareness of DM patients' family members (DMPFMs) about DM occurrence and prevention. A cross sectional study was conducted in 2014 in two suburban cities of Ethiopia, namely Kemisse, and Kombolcha using an interviewer administered questionnaire among primary or secondary degree DMPFMs and controls. Based on eligibility criteria study participants were selected by health extension workers on house to house visit. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20, and P value less than 0.05 considered as statistically significant. RESULTS Of the total 347 study participants, 45.5% (n = 158) had DMPFMs. Majority, 60.8% of DMPFMs and 73.0% of controls were males. Mean age of DMPFMs (30.06 years) was less than that of the controls (37.38 years). On living style, 51.9% DMPFMs, and 42.8% of controls were single. In both study groups, the majority of study participants attended grade 7-12. The likelihood of having good level of knowledge among DMPFMs were 2.94 times (AOR = 2.94 95% CI 1.87-4.86) higher compared to those who did not. Those attaining higher educational levels were 3.41 times (AOR = 3.41, 95% CI 1.31-8.91) more likely to have good level of knowledge, as compared to those who were unable to read and write. The likelihood of having good level of positive practice among DMPFMs were 3.38 times (AOR = 3.38% CI 2.05-5.58) higher as compared to controls. Participants who were living in Kombolcha were 2.33 times (AOR = 2.33 95% CI 1.31-4.12) more likely to have good level of practice, as compared to individuals from Kemisse. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes mellitus family members in the Ethiopian suburban cities Kemisse, and Kombolcha had better knowledge and practice about DM compared to controls. But, the overall awareness about DM occurrence and prevention was relatively low. Thus, DM awareness campaigns should be strongly pursued regardless of family history and educational background to prevent further increase of DM in Ethiopia.
