1 An association between glycine and insulin levels is observed in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and type 2 diabetes. Glycine insulin Homo sapiens
2 In particular, glycine has immunomodulatory properties and is a secretagogue of insulin. Glycine insulin Homo sapiens
3 The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between glycine and insulin plasma levels in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Glycine insulin Homo sapiens
4 A correlation between glycine and insulin levels in the PTB (r = 0.326) and PTB-DM2 (r = 0.318) groups was found. Glycine insulin Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: Our results showed a significant association between glycine and insulin plasma levels in patients with PTB and PTB-DM2, which suggests that the determination of glycine levels could be used as a reference test to evaluate both pathologic conditions. Glycine insulin Homo sapiens
