Popis: | Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) were studied in 18 smokers and 18 closely matched non-smokers, all of whom had Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM). None of the patients had advanced complications of diabetes. The t-PA and PAI-1 antigen levels were measured in plasma before and after venous occlusion, and were normal in Type 1 diabetes regardless of smoking status. Platelet PAI-1 levels were also measured and were found to be normal both in smokers and non-smokers. In smokers with Type 1 DM, plasma PAI-1 was significantly correlated with triglycerides. The normal fibrinolytic potential found in smokers with diabetes contrasts starkly with the significantly elevated plasma PAI-1 reported in smokers without diabetes. In smokers, triglycerides may effect low levels of PAI-1 release into plasma; this process may be significantly augmented in the presence of smoking-induced insulin resistance. The lack of endogenous insulin release in Type 1 diabetes may obviate the characteristic rise in plasma PAI-1 found in smokers who do not have diabetes. |
