ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the variation and influential factors of high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level in type 2 diabetic family members. Methods A total of 427 type 2 diabetic patients, 377 non-diabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics and 135 normal control subjects without diabetic family history were recruited. Serum hs-CRP, clinical and biochemical parameters were measured. The relations among indicators were analyzed. Results Compared with normal control subjects, serum hs-CRP levels in type 2 diabetics and first-degree relatives were significantly increased (both P<0.05), and the increment was even marked in type 2 diabetics than that in first-degree relatives (P<0.01). The serum hs-CRP levels in type 2 diabetics and first-degree relatives were positively associated with body mass index, waist-hip ratio, abdominal circumference, postgrandial 2 h plasma glucose, fasting and postgrandial 2 h serum insulin, HOMA-IR, triglyceride, creatinine and negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. In first-degree relatives, serum hs-CRP level was positively associated with systolic blood pressure and HOMA-β. Conclusion As in type 2 diabetic patients, there exists inflammatory reaction in the non-diabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
