Abstract

Endothelial dysfunction is implicated in the pathogenesis of macrovascular complications of diabetes and atherosclerosis. Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide-II (EMAPII) is a multifunctional polypeptide with proinflammatory and antiangiogenic activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the serum level of EMAP-II in obese and nonobese patients with type 2 diabetes. We found an increase of serum level of EMAP-II in obese diabetic patients compared to obese subjects without diabetes. Similar alterations were observed also in non-obese diabetic patients compared to control subjects. Moreover, it was significant elevation of serum EMAP-II in obese patients without diabetes compared to control subjects. In obese and non-obese patients with diabetes it was a significant correlation between HbAc1, blood glucose, body mass index and levels of EMAP-II, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides and EMAP-II. In obese non-diabetic patients it was significant correlation between BMI, triglycerides, total cholesterol and EMAP-II. The revealed change of EMAP-II serum level reflects an endothelial dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes. Hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and obesity appear to be significant factors contributing to elevation of EMAP-II level

Keywords: EMAP-II, diabetes, endothelial dysfunction.
