Current researcn in type 2 diabetes mellitus focuses on the role of Peroxisome- Proliferator Activated Receptors (PPARs) in the pathogenesis of the Insulin Resistance Syndrome (IRS), which are pre-diabetic lesion and the hallmark of fully developed type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aims at identifying the abnormal status of the PPAR-γ in adipose tissues of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, when compared with matched normal controls.This cross-sectional study was conducted in Ayub Medical College, Abbottabad, from 2012 to 2014. Sample included three equal groups of patients. Group-1 with diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus, aged 40-65 years, acting as the test group, Group-2 included non-diabetic obese, and Group-3 with normal subjects. Transcription Factor Assay for Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor Gamma (gamma PPAR) was done on ELISA Technique from Nuclear Extract procured from Adipose Tissue of the subjects.Mean age of enrolled participants was 48.93 SD ± 6.52 years. Patients ranged between ages of 40 years to 67 years. The mean values of PPAR in normal, obese and diabetic group were 1.72 SD ± 0.28, 1.282 SE ± 0.18 and 1.283 SE ± 0.18 respectively. The difference in mean values of PPAR was significant p0.05:The levels of PPAR-γ in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Obese cases are significantly lower than normal controls. |
