Assessing MicroRNA-375 Levels in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) Patients and Their First-Degree Relatives with T2DM

Abstract: The pancreatic islet specific microRNA-375 (miR-375) is overexpressed in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients suppressing the glucose-induced insulin secretion. Thus, miR-375 may serve as a biomarker for the early prediction of T2DM among high-risk individuals. We conducted this clinical study to assess the significance of miR-375 among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and their first-degree relatives. Patients and Methods: We included 56 Han Chinese individuals (N: NGT = 21, T2DM = 10, FD-NGT =13 … Show more

“…Several studies have also linked miR-375 to diabetic retinopathy (47)(48)(49). MiR-375 was also researched as a possible biomarker of T2D development (50)(51). However, the relative quantity of miR-375 was not statistically signifi cantly changed in our study.…”

“…Interestingly, another finding has highlighted the pivotal role of miR-375 in predicting T2DM even before onset, thus making it valuable as a prognostic marker [ 27 ]. Consistent with this finding, a recent study to assess miR-375 in diabetes patients and their first-degree relatives by quantitative real-time PCR noted that it may serve as a stable biomarker for an early finding of T2DM among high-risk individuals [ 28 ]. It is already mentioned that miR-375 is predominantly expressed in β cells of the pancreas, overexpression of the aforementioned micro RNA leads to reduced β cell mass via PI3-Akt pathway (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, protein kinase B) and subsequently, insulin secretion is curtailed [ 29 ].…”

“…In mice, for example, miR-375 is highly expressed in healthy β-cells regulating the expression of several genes that are implicated in normal insulin secretion, such as Glut2, which is involved in glucose uptake, and Pdx-1, which plays a key role in β-cell function [271]. At the same time though, miR-375 has been found to be dysregulated both in experimental [273,274] and real-life conditions related to T2D [275]. In addition, other malfunctioning miRNAs have been found to play a role in β-cell failure and T2D pathogenesis, such as miR-7, miR-9, miR-29, and miR-30d, among several others [272,276].…”
