Summary: | Diabetes mellitus (DM) is now regard as a worldwide health issue affecting hundreds millions of people. It is a metabolic disease targeting glucose metabolism and insulin homeostasis, Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most prevent type of this disease accounting about 90-95% of the disease as whole. microRNAs (miRNAs) which are a small non-coding RNAs, they revolutionized as potential new biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of a wide range of disorders. Recent studies prove the relationship between miR-21 and inflammatory process and insulin resistance, our emphasis suggest there is a role of miR-21 in insulin resistance in T2DM. Studies have explored the potential of miR-21 as diagnostic biomarkers for T2DM. The purpose of this study is to compare the sera levels of miRNA-21 among newly diagnosed patients e with T2DM patients with their levels in apparently healthy subjects using blood samples. The time frame for this case-control research is August 2022 through March 2023, and it took place at Al-Sadr Teaching Hospital/ Masin / Iraq. There were 100 patients home recent diagnosed with T2DM (50 females and 50 males) with age ranged between (20 -70 years) and 100 apparently healthy subject who dealt with as control group. 2 ml of blood drown from each patient and healthy person, putted it in EDTA tube with 1 ml of Trizole as a preservative, and put the tubes in the freezer at -70 degrees Celsius until analyze the samples. |
