Background and Aims: to study the clinical significance of the s E- selectin (CD 62) in the serum of patients with Type 1 Diabetes and Microangiopathy (diabetic nephropathy (DN) and retinopathy (DR).Materials and Methods: 32 patients (14 men & 18 women, age mediana 26,4 years) were under supervision in the period from 1999 to 2001 years. The cohort examined was subdivided into 3 groups:1. with newly diagnosed diabetes (n = 11) ...

Objective : to estimate the activative and adhesive ability of leucocytes and endothelial cells in active PDR ( with neovascularisation ).Materials and methods : 17 young patients, age mediana 26,4 years, with Diabetes Type 1 and active PDR were compared with 17 healthy controls. ICAM-1 (CD 54) on the surface of lymphocytes and granulocytes was measured by flow cytometry ' Becton Dickinson '.Serum soluble E - selectin ( CD 62 ) was identified by ELISA ( 'R and D', UK ).Mean Di...
