The frequent combination of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an important socially significant and far from being studied problem. However, only a few works are devoted to it. To solve this problem, we analyzed the possible pathogenetic mechanisms from the standpoint of the impact on glucose homeostasis of the main hormones - insular and contrainsular.The analysis was carried out using various literature databases, including Index Medicus, Scopus, Pub Med, Embase, Cochrane and others for the period, with rare exceptions, for 2000-2020, of which the works devoted directly to the aspect considered in this work were published in the last 5 years.The analysis revealed a mutual aggravating effect of COPD and T2DM, in which COPD plays an initiating role. It also revealed a significant role of counterinsular hormones, which largely determines the nature of the pathogenesis of T2DM in COPD.In addition, the article draws attention to the possible role of genetic factors that can be common for COPD and T2DM and have a significant role in the comorbidity of COPD and T2DM. The data obtained can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in the correction of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism in COPD, which is the lot of further research. |
