Abstract:
Objective:To screen for the differentially expressed genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) from type 2 diabetes patients with distal symmetric polyneuropathy(DSPN) by gene microarray.Methods: A 5 075 gene cDNA microarray was used to examine gene expression in PBMCs of 2 type 2 diabetes patients with DSPN(group 1),2 type 2 diabetes patients without DSPN(group 2),and 2 age-and sex-matched controls(control group).The differentially expressed genes were identified and subjected to real-time RT-PCR analysis.Results: Twenty-two genes were found to be differentially expressed,including cell metabolism and signal transduction genes,oncogenes and anti-oncogenes,DNA synthesis and repair genes,ion channel and transport protein genes,DNA-binding,transcription and transcription factor genes,and cytoskeleton genes.There were 4 genes up-regulated and 18 down-regulated.Real-time RT-PCR results of AK1 and FBXO7 were consistent with that of microarray analysis.Conclusion: Microarray expression profile of PBMC in type 2 diabetes patients with DSPN is differential.DSPN may be involved in cell metabolism,signal transduction,DNA synthesis,etc.
