Popis: Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the differences in transcriptome expression profiles between healthy subjects and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with thirst and fatigue (D-T2DM) and, in addition, to investigate the possible role of noncoding ribonucleic acids (RNAs) in the pathogenesis of D-T2DM.Methods: We constructed the expression profiles of RNAs by RNA sequencing in the peripheral blood of D-T2DM patients and healthy subjects and analyzed differentially expressed RNAs.Results: Compared with healthy subjects, a total of 469 mRNAs, 776 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and 21 circular RNAs (circRNAs) were differentially expressed in D-T2DM patients. Furthermore, several genes associated with insulin resistance, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction were identified within the differentially expressed mRNAs. Differentially expressed lncRNAs were primarily involved in biological processes associated with immune responses. In addition, differentially expressed circRNAs may target miRNAs associated with glucose metabolism and mitochondrial function.Conclusions: Our results may bring a new perspective on differential RNA expression involved in the pathogenesis of D-T2DM and promote the development of novel treatments for this disease.
