Popis: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Adipose tissue, as an endocrine organ, is involved in the synthesis of hormones that are involved in several processes, including the regulation of food intake, the control of insulin sensitivity or as mediators of inflammatory processes. The aim of this study was to determine the importance of leptin, adiponectin, interleukin 6 and interleukin 10 levels for the development of post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) 1 year after kidney transplantation (KT). METHOD In the prospective analysis, the studied sample (n = 104) was divided into three groups: (1) control group, (2) patients who developed a pre-diabetic condition after KT (impaired glucose tolerance, fasting hyperglycemia) and (3) patients who developed de novo PTDM. Pre-transplantation and subsequently at 3, 6 and 12 months after KT, we recorded the basic characteristics of the donor and recipient, including parameters reflecting graft function, metabolic (lipid profile, glucose metabolism parameters) and anthropometric parameters. At the same time, we monitored the levels of adipocytokines (adiponectin, leptin) and interleukins (IL-6, IL-10) during the monitored period (Table 1). RESULTS The level of leptin in the post-transplant period had a continuously decreasing tendency in the control group with a significantly lower level 12 months after KT (P = 0.0078). On the other hand, after transient decrease, leptin level remained high in 12 months after KT in the group with prediabetes (P = 0.0343) and PTDM (insignificant). In contrast, adiponectin levels showed a significant decrease after 12 months in the group with prediabetes (P = 0.0009) and PTDM (P CONCLUSION We confirmed that elevated leptin level 12 months after KT is associated with the development of PTDM. Levels of inflammatory process mediators (IL-6 and IL-10) did not correlate with an increased incidence of metabolic complications. Their importance seems to apply in the event of acute rejection, which requires further investigation.
