Changes in prostaglandin levels in the blood serum of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease on the background of type 2 diabetes mellitus
Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2018, Vol 52, Issue 3
Abstract
Background. Digestive organ damage in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is based on several mechanisms: autonomic nervous system dysfunction, angiopathy, dysregulation of secretion and inactivation of hormones and increments. The purpose was to study the features of changes in prostaglandin (Pg) levels (I2 and F2α) in the blood serum of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) on the background of type 2 DM depending on the body mass index violation. Materials and methods. The study involved 54 patients with type 2 DM and GERD (group I). The comparison group included 22 patients with GERD (group II). The patients had their blood serum examined and indicators of Pg F2α and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (blood prostacyclin — Pg I2) determined. Results. Increased levels of prostaglandins in both groups of patients were detected, but more significant changes were observed in group I. Attention is called to a more significant increase in Pg I2 concentration compared with Pg F2α, especially in patients with GERD on the background of type 2 DM (3.4 times compared with 2.1 times in group I). Patients with GERD revealed the increased levels of Pg I2 by 2.2 times, while Pg F2α is only 1.6 times higher. In the combination of several pathological states (type 2 DM, GERD, increased body mass index), there is a more significant increase in the concentration of prostacyclin, which also depends on the duration of the disease. Conclusions. In patients with GERD, an increase in the levels of prostaglandins F2α and I2 in the blood serum has been detected. The combination of GERD and type 2 DM is accompanied by a more significant increase in the concentration of prostaglandins, especially Pg I2, in the blood serum. The correlation was established between the duration of type 2 DM mellitus, excessive body weight and the dynamics of Pg I2 level in the blood serum of patients with GERD on the background of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
