Abstract:
In recent years,the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)keeps increasing in China,and seriously affects people's health.The M1/M2 polarization of macrophages is unbalanced in patients with T2DM,which is manifested by the increase of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages and the decrease of anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages.Macrophage polarization imbalance can cause insulin resistance or damage pancreatic islets β cells through various ways.Adjusting the polarization of macrophages plays a therapeutic role in T2DM.This article reviews the research progress on the relationship between macrophage polarization and T2DM.
