The impct of dietic nephropthy on serum RBP4 levels, however, is not well known. This study imed to investigte the reltionships etween serum levels of RBP4 nd vrious metolic prmeters in Egyptin ptients with TDM. Additionlly, the present study tested the hypothesis tht microluminuri is ssocited with elevted serum concentrtions of RBP4 in type dietic sujects. In cse control study, totl numer of 60 type dietic ptients nd 0 helthy sujects were enrolled in the present study. The prticipnts were mtched y ge nd sex. Dietic ptients were clssified into normoluminuri nd microluminuri sugroups ccording to the microlumin level in urine. Serum RBP4 nd micolumin were mesured y n enzyme-linked immunosorent ssy (ELISA).The results demonstrted sttisticlly significnt elevtion in serum RBP4 concentrtions in TDM sujects compred to control sujects, lso serum RBP-4 levels in mles were significntly higher in TDM ptients compred with mle control group, s well s in femles TDM ptients compred with femle control group. In TDM ptients, serum concentrtion of RBP4 ws positively correlted with ge, fsting lood sugr, post prndil lood sugr nd HA1c nd inversely correlted with femle gender. There were no significnt correltions etween RBP4 nd BMI, GFR, cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL, LDL, ure, cretinine, cretinine clernce nd uric cid. The serum RBP4 levels in micromcroluminuric ptients were significntly higher thn in normoluminuric ptients nd the control sujects. It could e concluded tht serum RBP4 levels were found to e elevted in sujects with TDM nd to e relted to vrious clinicl prmeters known to e ssocited with TDM, so levels of serum RBP4 might ply importnt role in the pthogenesis of TDM. Also, the present study suggests tht serum RBP4 levels in type dietic ptients re ffected y incipient nephropthy.

In TDM ptients, serum concentrtion of RBP4 ws positively correlted with ge, fsting lood sugr, h post prndil lood sugr nd HA1c nd inversely correlted with femle gender. There were no significnt correltions etween RBP4 nd BMI, DISCUSSION The numer nd diversity of identified dipokines re growing rpidly [17]; nd understnding of the diverse effects of distinct dipokines s well s the interply etween these ioctive meditors is still incomplete [18] nd, if fully elucidted, would provide much etter understnding for the moleculr sis of TDM. Type DM is metolic disorder resulting from the comintion of resistnce to insulin ction, deficiency of insulin secretion nd excessive or inpproprite glucgon secretion [19]. TDM is ssocited with some disese such s hypertension nd crdiovsculr disese nd is chrcterized y trget-tissue resistnce to insulin [0]. The present study showed tht serum RBP4 levels were significntly elevted in dietic ptients in comprison with control sujects. Our results greed with different studies [1-8] tht demonstrted elevted serum RBP4 levels in type dietic sujects. Severl mechnisms linking RBP4 to insulin resistnce nd type dietes hve een investigted. To our knowledge, the RBP-4 gene is locted on chromosome 10 (10q3-q4) in humns in region tht contins t lest 1 interesting gene, hexokinse 1, the gene encoding key enzyme in the initil step of glucose metolism [9]. Furthermore, incresed serum RBP-4 levels re known to stimulte heptic gluconeogenesis through stimultion of phosphoenolpyruvte croxykinse nd the ttenuted insulin signling in skeletl muscle [30]. Insulin signling in primry humn dipocytes ws ffected y RBP4 through locking the insulin-stimulted phosphoryltion of insulin receptor sustrte-1 t serine in position 307 [31]. The link etween RBP4 nd type TDM could lso e medited through impired insulin secretion, insulin levels were not mesured in the present study. However, Nehl et l. [] found circulting RBP4 concentrtion ws negtively ssocited with insulin secretion in Egyptin TDM. In fct, it is well known tht retinolis 4

These findings re in consistent with the findings with chnges in the concentrtions of serum RBP4. Our of Cho et l. [6], Chi et l. [34], Ji et l.

Recently, Kos et l. [37] found higher RBP4 mrna consistent with the findings of Ril et l. [41] nd expression in dipose tissue in femles when compred Li et l. [4]. These results imply tht excretion or with mles; however, RBP4 mrna expression ws not degrdtion of RBP4, together with other dipocytokines, reflected in the circulting levels.

However, chnges in the GFR re responsile for the elevted RBP4 Cho et l. [6] reported no ssocition etween circulting levels. Ril et l.

This might e due to nd BMI. This might due to the study popultion which dmging effect of filtered protein on the proximl tuules comprised ptients with type dietes mellitus, with which decresed renl uptke nd ctolism of po-rbp4 nrrow BMI rnge nd poor islet function nd received [44], ecuse po-rbp4 hs een considered s glucose lowering tretments.

In conclusion, our results showed tht concentrtions of serum RBP4 were incresed in type dietic ptients nd were relted to the presence of incipient nephropthy mesured y microluminuri. Dietic nephropthy is n dditionl fctor tht might e responsile for elevted serum RBP4 in type dietes mellitus nd should e considered when discussed RBP-4 in TDM. REFERENCES 1. Friee, D., M. Neef, S.
