Iron Homstatin as a Marker on the Oxidative Stress in Patients for Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

Abstract

The study included measurement of the level of glucose, iron, ferritin, transferrin‚ Total iron binding capacity, Ceruloplasmin Ferroxidase activity, peroxidase activity and lipid peroxidation in the serum of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The study included (90) blood samples and divided into three groups (I‚ II‚ III) each of them (30) samples‚ (I) control group, (II, III) Type 2 diabetes patients with complications and without of complications, respectively. The results showed a significant increase in the level of glucose, iron, ferritin and lipid peroxidation in patients with type 2 diabetes with and without complications respectively compare with control group. While a decrease was observed efficacy of peroxidase and ferroxidase in patients Compare with control group as well as decreased transferrin and total iron binding capacity.
