As known, the number of obese people in the world exceeds 50% of the total population. Тo search the causes of obesity development many researchers pay attention to metabolites of intestinal microflora among which the main ones are short–chain fatty acids (SCFA): acetate (C2), propionate(C3), butyrate(C4). Hormones of food behavior produced by visceral adipose tissue (leptin) and cells of the gastrointestinal tract (ghrelin) also play an important role in the devel...

The key factor in the pathogenesis of both T2D and NAFLD is insulin resistance, which causes the lipids accumulation in hepatocytes and an increase of the lipid peroxidation, the production of reactive oxygen species and the development of inflammation. It has been shown that the main metabolic products of the saccharolytic microflora-short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), such as acetic (Ac), propionic (Pr) and butyric (Bu), can have an anti-inflammatory effect through their suppres...

Retinol binding protein (RBP) is an adipokine, related to insulin resistance (IR). Excess free fat acid reduces the binding of insulin by hepatocyte receptors and leads to hyperinsulinemia. RBP transport protein synthesized in hepatocytes and adipocytes. The level of RBP increases in patients with obesity, diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is positively correlated with the degree of severity of the inflammatory process and fibrosis. The RBP regulates t...

Purpose: To study the state of the microvasculature and tissue metabolism (according to the dynamics of the FAD and NADH coenzymes) using laser Doppler fluometry (LDF) and laser fluorescence spectroscopy (LFS) in patients with diabetes mellitus.Materials and methods: To implement the combined use of LDF and LFS methods, the Laser Diagnostic Device LAZMA ST was used (registration certificate of Roszdravnadzor No. RZN 2017/5844 of June 08, 2017).<p cla...

Methylglyoxal (MG) damages arginine protein residues, inhibits enzymes, disrupts insulin signal transmission, and plays a key role in the development of insulin resistance and hyperglycemia. High glucose levels cause an increase in glycation and methylglyoxal formation. Glycation is the main cause of protein damage, leading to the production of free radicals and causing inflammation.The purpose of the study: To Identify the relationship of methylglyoxal ...

Objective: To study the dynamics of cytolysis and carbonyl stress (methylglyoxal (MG)) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and non-alcoholic fat disease liver (NAFLD) on the background of various hypoglycemic therapy.Materials and methods: The study included 48 patients, 53.8 ± 11.14 years, with SD2 and NAFLD and 20 people in the control group. Viral hepatitis was excluded, toxic and drug-induced liver injury. Anthropometric researc incl...

Glycation is due to the ability of glucose to form irreversible chemical compounds with amino groups of lysine and arginine – methylglyoxal (MG).Material and Methods: 98 patients with NAFLD and 52 patients with NAFLD were examined. Diabetes 2-type, and 22 healthy volunteers. Age 57.3 ± 5.2 years. BMI 34.85 ± 1.79. The diagnosis was established on the basis of laboratory data and examination results. The level of LPO was determinedby the c...

Bile acids (BA) regulate glucose and lipid metabolism, provide bile flow, increase lipase activity by 10–15 times. With the development of inflammation, violations occur in the membrane proteins of glucose transporters.AimDetermine the total pool of bile acids in NAFLD with diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Determine the content of inflammation markers lipoprotein-associated phospholipase (Lp-PLA2), ...

AimTo assess the effect of Zakofalk in complex therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity.Materials and methodsWe examined 68 patients with type 2 diabetes and 28 with obesity (body mass index over 30 kg/m2). The control group consisted of 20 people. The groups were comparable in terms of age, sex, and antihyperglycemic therapy. In addition to a thorough clinical examination of all study ...
