Abstract:
Objective To investigate the differences of leptin (LEP) between Mongol and Han population with metabolic syndrome (MS) and its related factors.Methods According to the diagnostic criterion of MS,291 people with MS were selected as subjects,of which,146 were Han nationality(A group) and 145 were Mongol(B group).Radioimmunoassay kit was used to measure the serum leptin level.At the same time,the indices including weight,height,blood pressure,blood glucose,blood lipid,Serum uric acid (sUA),insulin (Fins),body mass index (BMI) and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) were measured.Results The following indices in B group including fasting plasma glucose (FPG),Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),leptin,blood insulin,insulin resistance index were (6.2 ± 1.5) mmol/L,(3.1 ± 0.8) mmol/L,(4.3 ± 2.0) μg/L,(22.4-± 16.0) mU/L and (6.5 ± 0.5) respectively,significantly differed from that of A group ((6.7 ±1.7) mmol/L,(2.7 ±0.7) mmol/L,(3.4 ± 1.5) μg/L,(18.8 ±14.0) mU/L,(4.7 ±3.6)respectively;t =2.04,2.84,3.47,2.18,4.82 ;P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in terms of age((46.9 ±9.8) vs.(46.3 ± 8.4)),systolic blood pressure (SBP) ((146.8 ± 17.0) mm Hg vs.(149.1 ±19.2) mm Hg),diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ((90.5 ± 11.6) mm Hg vs.(92.5 ± 13.1) mm Hg),BMI ((27.4 ± 2.9) kg/m2 vs.(27.9 ± 3.2) kg/m2),total cholesterol (TC) ((5.5 ± 1.0) mmol/L vs.(5.5 ±0.9) mmol/L),triacylglycerol (TG) ((2.3 ± 1.4) mmol/L vs.(2.3 ± 1.4) mmol/L),high density lipid cholesterol (HDL-C) ((1.3 ±0.3) mmol/L vs.(1.2 ±0.4) mmol/L),and sUA (((320.7 ±93.6)μmol/L) vs.(308.7 ±86.9) μmol/L) between the patients with metabolic syndrome in Mongol population and in Han population(t =0.47,0.90,1.15,1.15,0,0,1.00,0.94 respectively,P ＞ 0.05).The increase of leptin level in the patients with metabolic syndrome in B group was associated with blood glucose,blood insulin and insulin resistance index (r =0.108,0.146,0.183 ; P ＜ 0.05).BMI,blood insulin and insulin resistance index may be the factors due to the higher of serum leptin levels.Conclusion The serum leptin of patients with metabolic syndrome in Mongol population are correlated with blood glucose,blood insulin and insulin resistance index,which plays an important role in the development of metabolic syndrome.
