Abstract
Defective intracellular antioxidant enzyme production (IAP) has been demonstrated in adults with diabetic nephropathy. To evaluate the effects on IAP of vitamin E administration in adolescents with type 1 diabetes and early signs of microangiopathy, 12 adolescents (aged 11-21 y; diabetes duration 10-18) were studied. Eight had retinopathy [background (four), preproliferative (three), or proliferative (one)], four had persistent microalbuminuria, and seven had both. Skin fibroblasts were obtained by biopsies and cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium. CuZn superoxide dismutase (SOD), MnSOD, catalase (CAT), and glutathione-peroxidase (GPX) activity and mRNA expression were measured before and after 3 mo of synthetic vitamin E supplementation (600 mg twice daily); on both occasions, IAP was evaluated at different ex vivo glucose concentrations (5 and 22 mM). Ten adolescents with type 1 diabetes (aged 12-20 y) without angiopathy and eight healthy volunteers (aged 15-22 y) participated as control subjects. Vitamin E serum levels were measured throughout the study. In normal glucose concentrations, CuZnSOD, MnSOD, CAT, and GPX activity and mRNA expression were not different among the groups. In high glucose, CuZnSOD activity ...Continue Reading
