Abstract

The aim of the study was investigation of cytokines activity, parameters of vasoactive nitric oxide (NO) pool in patients (pts) with essential hypertension (EH) and disglicemia.

Methods: the study involved 92 pts with EH, aged 30–80. Clinical, biochemical, immune sorbent, statistic methods were used.

Results: the pts were divided into 3 age- and sex- matched groups according to carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Group 1 included 26 patients with EH and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Thirty- two pts with EH and prediabetes were included in group 2. Group 3 consisted of 34 pts with EH without carbohydrate disorders. Pts of groups 1 and 2 had higher systolic and diastolic arterial pressure, longer history of EH (р<0.05) comparing to group 3. Significant changes of carbohydrate profile were detected (р<0.05). Endothelial dysfunction was found in 97.83 %, it was characterized by decreased endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), increased inducible NO synthase (iNOS), s-nitrosothiol (sNO). Negative correlation of eNOS with age was significant (R=-0.33, р<0.05). iNOS correlated with fasting insulin and glycated hemoglobin in group 1. (R=0.81, R=0.38 respectively, р<0.05). In group 2 iNOS – postprandial glucose (R=0.35, р<0.05). In group 3 sNO correlated with postprandial glucose and insulin (R=0.26, R=0.28 respectively, р<0.05). Oncostatin M (OsM) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were 3-15 folds greater than control and the highest were in group 3. OsM – fasting insulin (R=0.21), postprandial insulin (R=0.37), postprandial glucose (R=0.28), IL-6 (R=0.76), (р<0.05).

Conclusion: we speculate that metabolic determinants of type 2 diabetes can activate pathophysiologic cascade, leading to endothelial dysfunction and immune inflammation
