CONTEXT: Low-grade inflammation links obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression profile of genes involved in inflammatory pathways in adipose tissue and peripheral monocytes (PM) of obese patients with and without T2DM at baseline and after dietary intervention. DESIGN: Two-week intervention study with very-low-calorie diet (VLCD). SETTING: University hospital. Patients: Twelve obese females with T2DM, 8 obese nondiabetic females (OB) and 15 healthy age-matched females. INTERVENTION: Two weeks of VLCD (2500 kJ/d). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Metabolic parameters, circulating cytokines, hormones, and mRNA expression of 39 genes in sc adipose tissue (SCAT) and PM. RESULTS: Both T2DM and OB group had significantly increased serum concentrations of circulating proinflammatory factors (C-reactive protein, TNFα, IL-6, IL-8), mRNA expression of macrophage antigen CD68 and proinflammatory chemokines (CCL-2, -3, -7, -8, -17, -22) in SCAT and complementary chemokine receptors (CCR-1, -2, -3, -5) and other proinflammatory receptors (toll-like receptor 2 and 4, TNF receptor superfamily 1A and 1B, IL-6R) in PM, with OB group showing less pronounced chemoattracting and proinflammatory profile compared to T2DM group. In T2DM patients VLCD decreased body weight, improved metabolic profile, and decreased mRNA expression of up-regulated CCRs in PM and chemokines [CCL 8, chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10] in SCAT. VLCD markedly increased mRNA expression of T-lymphocyte attracting chemokine CCL-17 in SCAT. CONCLUSION: Obese patients with and without T2DM have increased mRNA expression of chemotactic and proinflammatory factors in SCAT and expression of corresponding receptors in PM. Two weeks of VLCD significantly improved this profile in T2DM patients.

Ghrelin was originally isolated from the rat stomach and significant amounts were found also in the kidney. Present study was designed to examine changes in ghrelin levels in renal failure and their relationship to the GH/IGF-I axis. Fourty patients with mild-to-severe CRF (19 men, 21 women, aged 62.5 +/- 2.2 years, BMI 27.57 +/- 0.73 kg/m(2)) and 34 healthy control subjects (17 men, 17 women, aged 60 +/- 2.6 years, BMI 27.55 +/- 0.79 kg/m(2)) were included in the study. Total ghrelin levels were significantly increased in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) (p < 0.0001). Total ghrelin in CRF correlated positively with active ghrelin (p < 0.001), GH (p < 0.05), IGF-I (p < 0.05), free IGF-I (p = 0.0001), IGFBP-3 (p < 0.01), IGFBP-2 and -6 (p < 0.05). Active ghrelin in CRF correlated positively with IGF-I (p < 0.001), free-IGF-I (p < 0.005), IGFBP-2 (p < 0.05) and IGFBP-3 (p < 0.05). However, most of the correlation were markedly reduced and the significance disappeared after adjustment for different creatinine levels. Hemodialysis in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) resulted in a significant reduction of plasma total and active ghrelin (p < 0.01 and p < 0.001 respectively). In conclusion we demonstrated elevated plasma levels of total ghrelin in CRF, and a reduction of total and active ghrelin after a single course of hemodialysis in ESRD. The elevation of ghrelin levels could be caused by impaired clearance and/or metabolism of ghrelin in the kidney. We did not prove clearly significant relationship between ghrelin serum levels and parameters of GH/IGF-I axis in study subjects.
