Abstract: (21 Views)
Introduction: Recently, it has been reported that dysregulated levels of circRNAs may be associated with the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Accordingly, the present study aimed to determine the expression level of hsa_circ_104515 and its association with biochemical parameters in patients with T2DM, prediabetes, and control subjects.
Materials and Methods: In the present study, the expression of circRNAs in peripheral blood was determined using QRT-PCR in 20 patients with T2DM, 20 prediabetics, and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals. Biochemical parameters including FBS and HbA1c were measured using routine laboratory methods.
Results: Our analysis showed that the expression level of hsa_circ_104515 has been increased in T2DM patients and prediabetics (P=0.018) compared to healthy subjects (P<0.001); however, this difference was not statistically significant. Furthermore, in Spearman correlation analysis, there was not any correlation between the expression level of hsa_circ_104515 and laboratory and anthropometric parameters including BMI (P<0.005).
Conclusion: The data of this study provided evidence that the expression level of hsa_ circ_104515 was increased in T2DM and prediabetic subjects compared to the control group.
