Özet

Objective: Several studies have shown increased oxidative stress in patients with pre-diabetes and newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It has been proposed that oxidative stress initiates insulin resistance in genetically predisposed individuals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the markers of oxidative stress in the off spring of patients with T2DM. Material and Methods: We examined 60 lean normoglycemic off spring of Type 2 diabetics, and 52 age, sex and body mass index matched subjects without family history of T2DM as controls. Anthropometric, biochemical and carotid intima media thickness (IMT) measurements and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were performed. Erythrocyte superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities, serum nitric oxide, plasma total sulfhydryl (tSH) groups, plasma total antioxidant status, plasma malondialdehyde and serum 8-hydroxydeoxy-guanosine (8-OHdG) levels were compared between 2 groups. Results: 2 groups were similar for the measurements of anthropometric, blood pressure, lipids, fasting glucose, HOMA-IR and carotid IMT. Glucose levels during OGTT were significantly higher in the off spring of Type 2 diabetics than controls (p = 0.035). The off spring of Type 2 diabetics showed a significant increase in serum 8-OHdG level (p = 0.005) and plasma tSH groups (p = 0.032) when compared to the controls. Significant differences were not obtained in other oxidative stress marker levels between 2 groups. Conclusion: Main finding of our study was the presence of increased oxidative DNA damage in lean normoglycemic off spring of Type 2 diabetic patients. There is a need for further clinical studies in order to explain whether oxidative stress is present in genetically predisposed subjects and induces the insulin resistance.
