Résumé
Objective:To investigate the changes of serum miR-33 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and analyze the relationship between miR-33 and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:From July 2019 to January 2020, 25 healthy subjects (control group), 25 NAFLD patients (NAFLD group), 25 T2DM patients hospitalized in the department of endocrinology (T2DM group) and 25 T2DM patients with NAFLD (NAFLD combined with T2DM group) were selected. The basic data of the subjects were collected, and the levels of miR-33 and other biochemical indexes in the serum of the four groups were detected. The risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease were analyzed.Results:There was no significant difference between T2DM group and T2DM group with NAFLD in course of disease, medication history and incidence of complications ( P<0.05). The levels of serum miR-33 in T2DM group, NAFLD group and T2DM combined with NAFLD group were higher than those in healthy people, and the level of serum miR-33 in the combined group was the highest ( P<0.05). The differences in systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol (TC), fasting blood glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin, triglycerides (HbA1c), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), uric acid (UA), serum creatinine (Scr), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the four groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The level of miR-33 was positively correlated with systolic blood pressure, FPG, HbA1c, TG, UA and GGT ( P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the level of HDL-C ( P<0.05). MiR-33, systolic blood pressure and FPG increased the risk of NAFLD in T2DM patients ( OR=8.999, 1.083, 2.071, P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum miR-33 is the influencing factor of T2DM and NAFLD diseases and the risk factor of T2DM patients with NAFLD. It may affect the occurrence and development of metabolic diseases by participating in the regulation of glycolipid metabolism.
