Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes is a complex and multifactorial metabolic disorder. The frequency of type 2 diabetes has dramatically increased worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs play a regulatory role in pathological processes of type 2 diabetes. The aim of the study was to analyze TP53TG1, LINC00342, MALAT1, H19, and MEG3 lncRNAs in patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic parameters, as well as the risk of diabetic retinopathy. Participants included 51 patients with diabetes and 70 healthy individuals. The expression of the TP53TG1 and LINC00342 genes was significantly decreased in the patients with diabetes compared to healthy individuals. MALAT1 gene expression was higher in diabetes patients. H19 gene expression was increased in the patients with diabetic retinopathy compared patients without retinopathy. TP53TG1, LINC00342, and MEG3 expression was decreased in patients with diabetic retinopathy and MALAT1 expression was increased. H19 is positively correlated with triglyceride levels; TP53TG1 and LINC00342 are positively correlated with HbA1c levels and fasting glucose levels. MALAT1 is negatively correlated with HDL levels and positively correlated with LDL levels. A decrease in the expression level of TP53TG1 and LINC00342 and an increase in the level of MALAT1 in diabetes, as well as an association with glycemic control, indicate the role of the studied noncoding RNAs in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus and retinopathy and can be considered as candidates for early diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.

Starch accounts for approximately 60% of the carbohydrates consumed by humans. Since amylase enzymes cannot function in the stomach's acidic environment, starch can only be digested in the mouth and small intestine. Simple sugars are found naturally in milk and fruits in...
