Abstract:
Several recent clinical studies have suggested that the levels of circulating 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid (CMPF) are significantly higher in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study recruited a total of 516 participants. The following patient populations were enrolled: 99 newly diagnosed cases with T2DM, 219 cases with prediabetes [82 with isolated impaired glucose tolerance (I − IGT), 66 with isolated impaired fasting glucose (I − IFG) and 71 with impaired glucose tolerance and impaired fasting glucose (IGT + IFG)], and 198 cases with normal glucose tolerance [NGT, including 99 first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetes patients (FDRs) and 99 non-FDRs] . We investigated the circulating CMPF levels in subjects with different glucose metabolism statuses and examined the potential link between CMPF and β cell function. Our results indicate that the serum CMPF levels were elevated in the prediabetes, T2DM, and FDRs groups compared to the NGT group. Additionally, the serum CMPF concentrations were independently and negatively associated with the triglyceride levels and Stumvoll first-phase insulin secretion index. Cumulatively, our findings suggest that the circulating CMPF levels can predict glycolipid metabolism disorders. Furthermore, elevated serum CMPF concentrations may determine hyperglycemia and β cell dysfunction.
