The incidence of metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)and diabetes mellitus(DM)is gradually increasing in China.Both are metabolic diseases and influence each other.MAFLD increases the likelihood of chronic complications in patients with DM.This article reviews the research progress of MAFLD and chronic complications of DM.
Objective To investigate the effect of C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 13 protein(CTRP13)on the autophagy function of primary rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells(rLSECs)induced by high glucose through AMP-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin complex(AMPK/mTOR)pathway.Methods After isolation,identification and culture,original rat liver sinusoid endothelial cells(rrLSECs)were divided into normal control(NC)group,high glucose(HG)group,HG +LV-CTRP13 group,HG+ lentiviral empty vector(LV-Con)group(HG+LV-Con).CTRP13 lentivirus over expression vector(LV-CTRP13)and lentivirus empty vector(LV-Con)were constructed and transfected into rrLSECs.According to the intervention methods of AMPK inhibitor Compound C,mTOR inhibitor Torin1 and autophagy inhibitor 3MA,the transfected cell were divided into normal control(NC)group,high glucose(HG)group,HG+LV-CTRP13 group,HG+lentiviral empty vector(LV-Con)group(HG+ LV-Con).qRT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of CTRP13,autophagy related protein Beclin1,human microtubule-associated protein light chain 3II(LC3II),human plasma membrane membrane vesicle association proteins(PLVAP)and p-AMPK and p-MTOR in rat rLSECs of each group.Results Compared with NC group,the number of autophagosome was decreased in HG and HG+LV-CTRP13 group(P<0.05).Compared with HG group,the number of autophagosome bodies was increased in HG +LV-CTRP13 group(P<0.05).The CTRP13 mRNA and protein expression was higher in NC and HG + LV-CTRP13 groups than in HG and HG + LV-Con groups(P<0.05).In HG+LC-CTRP13 group,Beclin1,LC3II,p-AMPK,and AMPK mRNA,Beclin1,LC3II/LC3I protein expression were higher than HG and HG + LV-Con group(P<0.05),PLVAP,p-mTOR,mTOR mRNA,and PLVAP protein expression were lower than HG and HG+LV-Con group(P<0.05).Comparison with HG + LV-CTRP13,p-mTOR protein expression in HG+LV-CTRP13+Compound C group increased(P<0.05),while expressions of CTRP13,Beclin1 and LC3II/LC3I protein decreased(P<0.05);the protein expressions of p-AMPK,Beclin1 and LC3II/LC3I were increased in HG+LV+ CTRP13+Torin1 group(P<0.05),while CTRP13 and p-mTOR protein expression was decreased(P<0.05);protein expressions of p-AMPK,p-mTOR and LC3II/LC3I were higher in HG+LV-CTRP13 + 3MA group(P<0.05),while LC3II/LC3I protein expression was lower(P<0.05).Conclusion CTRP13 overexpression activates AMPK/mTOR-autophagy signaling pathway,which may play a protective role in the function of rLSECs anddelay liver sinusoid capillarization.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum renal injury molecule-1(KIM-1)and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL)in the remission of diabetic kidney disease(DKD)after gastric bypass surgery in obese DKD patients.Methods Seventy-nine obese patients with DKD who received gastric bypass surgery in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected and divided into DKD remission group(n= 47)and DKD non-remission group(n=32)according to whether UACR decreased to normal level after surgery.Preoperative and postoperative general data were collected and biochemical indices,serum KIM-1 and NGAL levels were detected.Results None of the 79 obese DKD patients had intraoperative complications or switched to laparotomy.BMI,FPG,HbA1c,SBP,DBP,TC,TG,LDL-C,SUA,UACR,KIM-1 and NGAL were decreased after surgery,while HDL-C was increased after surgery(P<0.05).SBP,DBP,Scr,BUN,UACR,KIM-1 and NGAL in remission group were lower than those in non-remission group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the levels of KIM-1 and NGAL were positively correlated with Scr,BUN and UACR(P<0.05),but negatively correlated with eGFR(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that SBP,UACR,KIM-1 and NGAL were influencing factors for DKD remission after gastric bypass surgery.The areas under ROC curve of serum KIM-1,NGAL and combined prediction of DKD remission were 0.801,0.757 and 0.863,respectively.Conclusion Serum KIM-1 and NGAL can predict DKD remission in obese DKD patients after gastric bypass surgery.
Objective To investigate the association of uric acid excretion(UUAE)with obesity and abdominal obesity in newly diagnosed patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 1175 newly diagnosed T2DM patients hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were enrolled in this study from January 2006 to December 2012.According to the quartile of UUAE,they were divided into Q1 group(UUAE<2383 μmol/24 h,n=295),Q2 group(2383≤UUAE<2953 μmol/24 h,n=292),Q3 group(2954≤UUAE<3680 μmol/24 h,n=292)and Q4 group(UUAE>3680 μmol/24 h,n=293).Clinical data and laboratory examination results were collected,and the prevalence of obesity and abdominal obesity was compared among the four groups.The associations of UUAE with obesity and abdominal obesity were analyzed.Results The prevalence of obesity was 47.9%,while the prevalence of abdominal obesity was 61.9%in the whole study population.After adjusting for age,the prevalence of abdominal obesity was higher in women than in men(P<0.05).After adjusting for age and gender,the prevalence of obesity and MS was higher in Q4 group than in Q1,Q2,and Q3 groups(P<0.05),and the prevalence of abdominal obesity was higher in Q4 group than in Q1 and Q2 groups(P<0.05).Compared with Q1 group,the proportion of men,BMI,WC,DBP,FIns,2 hIns,HOMA-IR,TG,ALT,γ-GT,SUA,UAlb in Q4 group increased(P<0.05),age,HbA1c,HDL-C decreased(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,UUAE was a factor affecting obesity and abdominal obesity.Conclusion UUAE increases the risk of obesity,abdominal obesity and MS in newly diagnosed T2DM patients.UUAE may be used as a simple indicator to assess the risk of metabolic disorders such as obesity and MS in T2DM patients.
Objective To explore the influence of family history of diabetes and central obesity on prediabetes(Pre-DM)and their interaction.Methods Based on the REACTION studyduring August December 2011 in Dalian,2587 individuals aged≥40 with normal blood glucose(BG)were divided into newly diagnosed Pre-DM(n=522)and BG normal group(NC,n=2065)during follow-up.The influence of family history of DM and central obesity on prediabetes and their interaction were analyzed.Results The age,SBP,DBP,BMI,WC,HDL-C,LDL-C,TG,ALT,GGT,FPG,2 hPG,HbA1c,FIns,HOMA-IR,SUA and the incidence of hypertension,fatty liver disease,dyslipidemia,overweight/obesity and central obesity in Pre-DM group were all higher than those in NC group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that family history of diabetes and central obesity were risk factors for Pre-DM.After adjustment,no significant multiplicative interaction was shown between diabetes family history and central obesity on the risk of Pre-DM(P=0.764).Quantitative analysis of interaction showed that RERI=0.110,S=1.112 and AP=0.053,suggesting that DM family history and central obesity have no significant additive interaction on the risk of Pre-DM.Conclusion The family history of DM and central obesity are both associated with the occurrence of Pre-DM,but there is no significant interaction.
