Association between Serum Malondialdehyde and Insulin in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Eastern India
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Objectives: Oxidative stress and insulin plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of our study was to study the altered levels of serum insulin and malondialdehyde and putatively establish their association in T2DM individuals. Methods: The preliminary case-control study included age, sex and body mass index (BMI) matched 56 T2DM cases and 42 healthy control subjects. Serum MDA was measured using a spectrophotometer while fasting serum levels of insulin was measured by commercially available immunoassay kits as well as routine biochemical parameters were analyzed in all study and control subjects. Results: Serum MDA level was observed significantly higher among T2DM subjects with respect to controls (p < 0.0001). An increase in serum insulin levels were also found in T2DM cases as compared to controls and were statistically significant (p < 0.0001). Further, serum MDA level showed a significant weak positive correlation with fasting plasma insulin (r = 0.265; P = 0.047) level among T2DM subjects, but no significant correlation was observed in controls (r = 0.114; P = 0.471). Conclusion: The association between serum MDA and insulin suggests that it may be used as a prognostic marker for the pathogenesis of T2DM
