Abstract

This prospective study was designed to examine the combined influence of insulin resistance (IR) and inflammatory biomarker levels on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among 1,903 Inner Mongolians. During follow-up, 205 (10.77%) participants developed T2DM, and the incidence of T2DM was higher among subjects with IR, elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), elevated sICAM-1, elevated sE-selectin, or the coexistences of IR with elevated CRP, elevated sICAM-1, elevated sE-selectin, and elevated angiotensin II (all P < 0.05) compared with patients without IR or any elevated biomarkers. In multivariate analysis, the odd ratios [OR, (95% confidence intervals)] for these conditions were 1.944 (1.405-2.691), 2.003 (1.449-2.767), 1.706 (1.232-2.362), 1.560 (1.123-2.165), 2.708 (1.809-4.054), 1.885 (1.155-3.078), 2.101 (1.340-3.295), and 2.260 (1.426-3.582), respectively. Our findings demonstrated that IR and elevated inflammatory biomarkers were associated with T2DM, and that the coexistence of IR and elevated inflammatory biomarkers increased the risk of T2DM.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.

Biomarkers for Type 2 Diabetes

Biomarkers can help understand chronic diseases and assist in risk prediction for prevention and early detection of diseases. Here is the latest research on biomarkers in type 2 diabetes, a disease in which the body is unable to produce or properly use insulin.
