Abstract Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(T2DM) is an endocrine disease that caused mainly by insulin resistance (IR) and β cell dysfunction. The incidence of T2DM is quite high in the worldwide. To explore the molecular mechanism of Jinqi Jiangtang Tablet(JJT) in treating of T2DM based on Network Pharmacology. Methods: The active compounds, targets of three Traditional Chinese medicines in JJT were obtained by the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP) database and Uniprot database; The targets of T2DM were screened through the Drugbank database; The compound-target network was constructed via the Cytoscape 3.7.2 software and used the built-in Network analyzer to analyze and select the key active compounds; The overlapping targets of drug and disease targets were gained by the VENNY online tool and the targets were built by STRING website to select the key genes; Gene Ontology(GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway were performed on the potential targets using DAVID6.8 online tool to study the mechanism of overlapping targets. Via Systems Dock platform to validate the interaction between compound and targets Results: Twenty-five active compounds of JJT were screened, 101 drug targets, 142 disease targets and twenty-one overlapping targets. GO enrichment analysis showed that the biological processes (BP)mainly included the blood circulation ,etc. Cell composition(CC) mainly affected the integral component of plasma membrane, etc. Molecular functions(MF) mainly involved alpha-adrenergic receptor activity, etc. KEGG pathway analysis showed that there were twelve pathways related to T2DM, among which PPAR signaling pathway was related to T2DM mostly. RXRA is one of key targets of JJT and berberine performed well. Conclusions: This study revealed the mechanism of JJT in treatment of T2DM preliminarily and supplied a further foundation for studying its mechanism.

Abstract Background: Gonadotropin Releasing Hormones agonists (GnRH), which are first line treatment for metastatic prostate cancer (PCa), increase risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aims to quantify the association of use of GnRH with diabetes control in PCa men with T2DM.Methods: Nationwide population-based cohort study in the Swedish National Diabetes Register and Prostate Cancer data Base Sweden 4.1, on the association between GnRH and diabetes control in T2DM men with PCa by comparing T2DM men with PCa vs. without PCa, as well as comparing T2DM men with PCa on or not on GnRH. The primary exposure was use of GnRH. Worsening diabetes control was the primary outcome, defined as: 1) increase of HbA1c to 58 mmol/mol or higher; 2) HbA1c increase by 10 mmol/mol or more; 3) Start of antidiabetic drugs or switch to insulin; 4) combine all definitions above. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to analyze the association. Results: There were 5,714 T2DM men with PCa of whom 692 were on GnRH and 28,445 PCa-free men with T2DM with similar baseline characteristics. Diabetes control was worse in men with GnRH vs. PCa-free men (HR: 1.24, 95% CI: 1.13-1.34) as well as compared with PCa men without GnRH (HR:1.58, 95% CI: 1.39-1.80). Conclusion: Use of GnRH in T2DM men with PCa was associated with worse glycemic control. The findings highlight the need to closely monitor diabetes control in men with T2DM and PCa starting GnRH agonists and to limit the duration of their use when possible.

Background: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) have an increased incidence in modern society. Although increasing evidence has supported the close linkage between these two disorders, the inter-relational mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. Objective: The primary purpose of this study is to explore the shared pathophysiological mechanisms of AD and T2DM. Methods: We downloaded the microarray data of AD and T2DM from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and constructed co-expression networks by Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify gene network modules related to AD and T2DM. Then, Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the common genes existing in the AD and T2DM related modules by clusterProfiler and DOSE package. Finally, we utilized the STRING database to construct the protein-protein interaction network and found out the hub genes in the network. Results: Our findings indicated that seven and four modules were the most significant with AD and T2DM, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis showed that AD and T2DM common genes were mainly enriched in signaling pathways such as circadian entrainment, phagosome, glutathione metabolism and synaptic vesicle cycle. Protein-protein interaction network construction identified 10 hub genes (CALM1, LRRK2, RBX1, SLC6A1, TXN, SNRPF, GJA1, VWF, LPL, AGT) in AD and T2DM shared genes. Conclusions: Our work identified common pathogenesis of AD and T2DM. These shared pathways might provide a novel idea for further mechanistic studies and hub genes that may serve as novel therapeutic targets for diagnosis and treatment of AD and T2DM.

Abstract Background Obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder ; however, the etiology of obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus remains largely unknown. There is an urgent need to further broaden the understanding of the molecular mechanism associated in obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods To screen the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that might play essential roles in obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus, the publicly available expression profiling by high throughput sequencing data (GSE143319) was downloaded and screened for DEGs. Then, Gene Ontology (GO) and REACTOME pathway enrichment analysis were performed. The protein - protein interaction network, miRNA - target genes regulatory network and TF-target gene regulatory network were constructed and analyzed for identification of hub and target genes. The hub genes were validated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and RT- PCR analysis. Finally, a molecular docking study was performed on over expressed proteins to predict the target small drug molecules. Results A total of 820 DEGs were identified between healthy obese and metabolically unhealthy obese, among 409 up regulated and 411 down regulated genes. The GO enrichment analysis results showed that these DEGs were significantly enriched in ion transmembrane transport, intrinsic component of plasma membrane, transferase activity, transferring phosphorus-containing groups, cell adhesion, integral component of plasma membrane and signaling receptor binding, whereas, the REACTOME pathway enrichment analysis results showed that these DEGs were significantly enriched in integration of energy metabolism and extracellular matrix organization. The hub genes CEBPD, TP73, ESR2, TAB1, MAP 3K5, FN1, UBD, RUNX1, PIK3R2 and TNF, which might play an essential role in obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus was further screened. Conclusions The present study could deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanism of obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus, which could be useful in developing therapeutic targets for obesity associated type 2 diabetes mellitus.

AbstractQuercetin has demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, and hypolipidemic activities, suggesting therapeutic potential against type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, potential molecular targets of quercetin were first identified using the Swiss Target Prediction platform and pathogenic targets of T2DM and AD were identified using online Mendelian inheritance in man (OMIM), DisGeNET, TTD, DrugBank, and GeneCards databases. The 95 targets shared among quercetin, T2DM, and AD were used to establish a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network, top 25 core genes, and protein functional modules using MCODE. Metascape was then used for gene ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. A protein functional module with best score was obtained from the PPI network using CytoHubba, and 6 high-probability quercetin targets (AKT1, JUN, MAPK, TNF, VEGFA, and EGFR) were confirmed by docking simulations. Molecular dynamics simulation was carried out according to the molecular docking results. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that the major shared mechanisms for T2DM and AD include “AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications,” “pathways in cancer,” and “MAPK signaling pathway” (the key pathway). We speculate that quercetin may have therapeutic applications in T2DM and AD by targeting MAPK signaling, providing a theoretical foundation for future clinical research.
