PG - 7065-7075 LID - 10.2147/IJGM.S375282 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: Oxidative and inflammatory pathways play a significant role in the pathophysiology of a wide variety of non-communicable diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension. However, the effect of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D ‎‎(25[OH]D) on these pathways is still controversial. To evaluate the association of 25[OH]D on ‎antioxidant and pro-inflammatory biomarkers, reduced glutathione (GSH) and tumor ‎necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, in T2DM and hypertensive patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study of a consecutive sample of patients attending the the Family Medicine clinic at King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz University Hospital (KAAUH). Participants were screened for eligibility according to the following ‎criteria: aged above 18 years and diagnosed with T2DM and/or hypertension for at least one ‎year. Patients receiving any kind of vitamin D or calcium supplements within the last three ‎months were excluded, as were those with a history of ‎renal failure, cancer, liver, thyroid, or any other chronic inflammatory diseases. RESULTS: In total 424 T2DM and/or ‎hypertensive patients (mean age 55+/-12 years) were recruited. In addition to routine ‎physical and laboratory examinations, levels of serum 25[OH]D, GSH and TNF-alpha were ‎measured. The prevalence of 25[OH]D deficiency (<50 nmol/L) was 35.1%, which was ‎independent from GSH and TNF-alpha levels. In T2DM, hypertensive and patients having ‎both diseases, GSH levels were 349.3+/-19, 355.4+/-19 and 428.8+/-20 mumol/L, ‎respectively. Uncontrolled T2DM and hypertension patients showed significantly higher ‎GSH compared with the controlled group. ‎Males showed slightly higher level ‎of TNF-alpha compared with females and uncontrolled hypertensive patients had relatively ‎higher TNF-alpha level when evaluated against controlled hypertensive patients. ‎. CONCLUSION: 25[OH]D level is independent of oxidative stress and inflammation, ‎assessed by levels of GSH and TNF-alpha, respectively, in T2DM and hypertensive Saudi ‎patients. ‎.
