Popis: | Serum ferritin is a widely-used marker of inflammation in prediabetes, diabetes and atherosclerosis. In these cases, progressive endothelial damage may involve the participation of toll-like receptors (TLR). The aim of this study was to determine the expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived CD14+ cells from subjects with prediabetes and with a high level of serum ferritin both at baseline and after in vitro cell stimulation with glycated ferritin. Blood samples were drawn from 22 subjects (13 with prediabetes and 9 with normoglycemia). Serum ferritin levels were measured by ELISA, while the expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in PBMC-derived CD14+ cells was determined by flow cytometry. IL-6 and IL-8 cytokines in PBMC-derived CD14+ supernatants were measured by ELISA. Subjects with prediabetes had a higher baseline expression of TLR4 in PBMC-derived CD14+ cells than was observed in cells from normoglycemic subjects (p |
