Studying the level of TNF-α cytokine in patients with diabetic neuropathy

The aim of the study. To investigate the relationship between the content of TNF-α in the blood of patients with diabetes and the development of diabetic neuropathy. Materials and Methods. Type 2 DM2 patients without complications and patients with diabetic neuropathy (DN) under inpatient treatment in RSSPMC of endocrinology of HM RUz participated in the study. Biochemical analysis and TNF-α cytokine were determined in blood. Results and discussion. The results of determining the content of TNF-α in the blood serum of the studied groups using ELISA showed that in patients with diabetes there is a significant increase in the content of TNF-α (3.05±0.44 pg/ml) relative to the values in the control group. In the group of patients with DN, an increase in the concentration of TNF-α in the blood serum was observed, which amounted to 5.2±0.44 pg/ml. A study of the concentration of TNF-α in patients without complications of diabetes and in patients with DN mild degree did not reveal statistically significant differences. In patients with DN mild degree, the average concentration of TNF-α was 3.62±0.89 pg/ml, and in DN severe degree -7.13±1.14 pg/ml, i.e. increased almost 2 times. Conclusion. It was found that the content of TNF-α in the serum of patients with diabetic neuropathy is in direct correlation with the degree of severity of the disease.
