Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE21321: Blood microRNA profiles and upregulation of hsa-miR-144 in males with type 2 diabetes mellitus. GSE26167: MicroRNA 144 impairs insulin signaling by inhibiting the expression of insulin receptor substrate 1 in Type 2 Diabetes mellitus Refer to individual Series
Project description:Results Platelets in non-diabetic patients demonstrated miRNA expression profiles comparable to previously published data. The miRNA expression profiles of platelets in diabetics were similar. Statistical analysis unveiled only three miRNAs (miR-377-5p, miR-628-3p, miR-3137) with high reselection probabilities in resampling techniques, corresponding to signatures with only modest discriminatory performance. Functional annotation of predicted targets for these miRNAs pointed towards an influence of diabetes mellitus on mRNA processing. Conclusions/interpretation We did not find any major differences in platelet miRNA profiles between diabetics and non-diabetics. Minor differences pertained to miRNAs associated with mRNA processing. Thus, previously described differences in plasma miRNAs between diabetic and nondiabetic patients cannot be explained by plain changes in the platelet miRNA profile. Platelet miRNA profiles were assessed in clinically stable diabetic and nondiabetic patients (each n=30). Platelet miRNA was isolated from leucocyte-depleted platelet-rich plasma, and miRNA profiling was performed using LNA micro-array technology (miRBase 18.0, containing 1,917 human miRNAs). Effects of diabetes mellitus were explored by univariate statistical tests for each miRNA, adjusted for potential confounders, and by developing a multivariable signature, which was evaluated by resampling techniques. Platelet phenotype was assessed by light transmission aggregometry and impedance aggregometry.

Project description:To evaluate whether serum micoRNAs can be biomarkers for diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus, we analyzed the serum microRNA expression profiles in 6 patients with new-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus and 6 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. A difference was observed in 31 miRNAs between the patients and controls (fold change ≥ 2, P < 0.05)
Project description:We have reported differntial abundance of miRNAs present in the secretory Extracellular vesicles during Gestetional Diabetes Mellitus or Ischemic placental disease
Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a major health problem with increasing prevalence worldwide. Limited efficacy of current therapies have prompted a search for novel therapeutic options. Here we show that treatment of pre-diabetic mice with mitochondrially targeted tamoxifen, a potential anti-cancer agent with senolytic activity, improves glucose tolerance and reduces body weight with most pronounced reduction of visceral adipose tissue due to reduced food intake, suppressed adipogenesis and elimination of senescent cells. Glucose-lowering effect of mitochondrially targeted tamoxifen is linked to improvement of type 2 diabetes mellitus-related hormones profile and is accompanied by reduced lipid accumulation in liver. Lower senescent cell burden in various tissues, as well as its inhibitory effect on pre-adipocyte differentiation, results in lower level of circulating inflammatory mediators that typically enhance metabolic dysfunction. Targeting senescence with mitochodrially targeted tamoxifen thus represents an approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its related comorbidities, promising a complex impact on senescence-related pathologies in aging population of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with potential translation into the clinic.
Project description:Pancreatic tumors with small size can cause type3C Diabetes Mellitus (PCA-DM) but the mechanism is unknown. In this study we aimed at revealing the mRNA and long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) expression patterns of pancreatic tumors that triggered PCA-DM. Four pancreatic tumors from patients with PCA-DM (A1-A4), four pancreatic tumors from patients without PCA-DM (B1-B4), and four pancreatic tissues from patients with pancreatitis were individually profiled with Agilent microarrays(Arraystar Human LncRNA Array v3.0). Pancreatic tumors with PCA-DM or without PCA-DM, and pancreatic tissues of pancreatitis were individually profiled.

Project description:Dysfunction of salivary glands is one of the common symptoms of diabetes. Although the long non-coding RNA has recently been identified to play a role in the pathogenesis of diabetes, it is still unclear about the role of lncRNA in diabetes salivary glands. This work was aimed to explore the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA expression profiles and functional network in diabetes submandibular gland
