1 The aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status of CpG sites in the MCP-1 promoter in Type 2 diabetic patients and its correlation to serum MCP- 1 level, and blood glucose level. Glucose C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
2 MCP-1 promoter methylation was significantly correlated to serum MCP-1, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, and triglyceride. Glucose C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: These data suggest that hypomethylation of CpG sites in the MCP-1 promoter region may be affected by blood glucose and TG, which then increase the serum MCP-1 level and may play a role in the vascular complications of Type 2 diabetes. Glucose C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
