  7. Diabetes Mellitus • Diabetes Mellitus -occurs in 6% of all population -is a disease that affects people chronically

  8. Diabetes • Diabetes is a condition in which an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood plasma. • All forms of diabetes are characterized by hyperglycemia • Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes

  9. Diabetes Type 1 Diabetes: -Child-onset diabetes -also termed Juvenile diabetes -immune-induced -defects in beta cells -an inability to produce insulin (or decreased production)

  10. Diabetes • Diabetes Type 2 -Non-insulin dependent Diabetes - “Adult-onset diabetes” -genetic + environmental factor - a major player -caused by a defect in target-response to take up insulin when present

  11. Diabetes – Complications • In diabetic patient, endothelial dysfunction result from: hyperglycemia –our focus today • Hyperglycemia increases oxidative stress and carbonyl stress – result: diabetes complications

  12. FOUR MAIN HYPOTHESES Four main hypotheses for mechanisms of hyperglycemia induced damage: 1) increased polyol pathway flux 2) increased advanced glycation end product (AGE) 3) activation of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms 4) increased hexosamine pathway flux

  13. AGE hypothesis • AGE is produced from reactive carbonyls such as glyoxal and methylglyoxal. • AGE precursors damage cells: 1) modified proteins - show altered functions 2) modified extracellular matrix component - show abnormal interactions 3) modified plasma proteins ->producing ROS (reactive oxygen species) -> undesirable changes in gene expression

  14. Link between Four Hypotheses • Overproduction of superoxide by the mitochondrial electron-transport chain

  15. Oxidative Stress in Diabetes Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) -O2* superoxide -OH* hydroxyl -RO2 peroxyl -HRO2 hydroperoxyl -H2O2 hydrogen peroxide -HOCl hypochlorite Reactive Nitrogen Species (RNS) -NO* nitric oxide -ONOO- peroxynitrite -NO2* nitrogen dioxide -HNO2 nitrous oxide -RONOO alkyl peroxynitrates

  16. Free radical formation by the body

  17. Increase in superoxide radical

  18. How does carbonyl stress fit into the picture?

  19. Increase in superoxide radical

  20. Endogenous Toxins • Elevated glucose/carbohydrates result in increased production of glyoxal and methylglyoxal • Glyoxal and methylglyoxal produce advanced glycation end-products (AGE) • Increased levels of AGE correlate with pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus

  21. Reactive Carbonyl - Glyoxal • Formed by the autoxidation of ene-diol tautomer of glycoaldehyde by ROS (reaction is catalyzed by transition metals) • The most reactive carbonyls even at low concentration because they cross-link proteins,glycate proteins, form AGE, and inactivate enzymes

  22. Reactive Carbonyl - Methylglyoxal • Formed from xylitol, ribose, and deoxyribose by the pentose phosphate pathway • Fragmentation of triose phosphates result in methylglyoxal-derived AGE • Triose phosphate levels increase because of the inhibition of GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) by mitochondrial over production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

  23. Increased reactive carbonyl from oxidative stress and carbonyl stress eventually lead to tissue damage

  24. Reactive carbonyls

  25. Summary • Hyperglycemia leads to increased oxidative and carbonyl stress (endogenous toxins). • Increased oxidative stress is due to increased production of ROS. • Increased carbonyl stress is due to increased glyoxyl and methylglyoxyl. • Increased endogenous toxins lead to pathogenesis of diabetes.
