Abstract

Co-stimulatory molecules together with leukocyte adhesion molecules are important for T lymphocyte and leukocyte-mediated inflammatory responses. We investigated the soluble costimulatory molecules CD80, CD86, CD28, and CTLA-4 and soluble adhesion molecules in plasma of 94 type 2 diabetic patients with or without nephropathy (DN and NDN) and 20 healthy controls. Plasma concentration of sCTLA-4 was significantly lower, whereas sCD28 was significantly higher in DN patients than that in control subjects (all P < 0.05). sCD28 and sCD80 were found to be positively correlated with fasting urine albumin: creatinine ratio in DN patients but not in NDN patients. Elevated soluble adhesion molecule vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 and P-selectin could be related with the disease severity of DN (all P < 0.05). Therefore, the aberrant expression of soluble co-stimulatory molecules and adhesion molecules can be related to the activation of T cells and leukocytes in the progression of inflammation in diabetic nephropathy.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
