Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a multifactorialchronic disease, in which patients need to be treated withinsulin in some conditions. Capillary growth is regulatedby growth factors like vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and endogenous inhibitors such as the splicevariant of VEGF receptor-1 (sVEGFR-1). We aimed to showthe levels and the clinical significance of VEGF, sVEGFR-1in patients with DM on insulin treatment.Materials and methods: A total of 83 subjects consistingof patients with the diagnosis of DM (n = 47) and healthycontrol (n = 36) were included the study. Plasma levels ofVEGF and sVEGFR-1, were measured using the enzymelinked immunosorbent assay method.Results: The average sVEGFR-1 levels of DM group was significantly higher than the control group (0.106 ± 0.052 and0.073 ± 0.049, respectively; p = 0.005). Significantly lowersVEGFR-1 levels were determined in patients receivingmetformin vs. without metformin using (0.065 ± 0.016 and0.118 ± 0.053, respectively; p = 0.001).Conclusion: This is the first study evaluating and demonstrating the importance of plasma VEGF and sVEGFR-1 levels together in DM patients receiving insulin. Using metformin may have positive effect on angiogenesis in DM. Further studies are required to understand these effects.

Özet

Amaç: Diabetes mellitus (DM), bazı durumlarda insülin ile tedavi edilmesi gereken multifaktöryel kronik bir hastalıktır. Kapiler büyüme, vasküler endotelyal büyüme faktörü (VEGF) gibi büyüme faktörleri ve çözünebilir VEGF reseptörü-1 (sVEGFR-1) gibi endojen inhibitörler tarafından düzenlenir. Bu çalışmamızda insulin tedavisi alan DM hastalarında VEGF, sVEGFR-1’in klinik önemini ve düzeylerini göstermeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya DM tanısı alan (n = 47) ve sağlıklı kontrol (n = 36) olan toplam 83 olgu dahil edildi. VEGF ve sVEGFR-1’in plazma seviyeleri, enzyme bağlı immünosorbent analiz yöntemi kullanılarak ölçüldü. Bulgular: DM grubunun ortalama sVEGFR-1 düzeyleri control grubundan anlamlı derecede yüksekti (sırasıyla 0.106 ± 0.052 ve 0.073 ± 0.049; p = 0.005). Metformin kullanan hastaların ortalama sVEGFR-1 düzeyleri metformin kullanmayan hastalardan anlamlı derecede düşük saptandı (0.065 ± 0.016 ve 0.118 ± 0.053, p = 0.001). Sonuç: Çalışmamız, insulin tedavisi alan DM hastalarında plazma VEGF ve sVEGFR-1 düzeylerinin önemini gösteren ilk çalışmadır. Metformin kullanılması DM’de anjiyogenez üzerinde olumlu bir etkiye sahip olabilir. Bu etkileri anlamak için ileri çalışmalar gereklidir.
