Abstract
Background: Usually excess feeding in stored in the body as fat and leads to overweight. One of the causes of catching type 2 diabetes is obesity. Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF- α and IFNγ can damageTnf- Α And Ifnγ By Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Of Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Type Ii Admitted To Ganjavian Dezful Hospit insulin signaling in insulin-sensitive tissues. In this study, the effect of garlic extract on the expression of TNF-α and IFNγ secreted by the mononuclear cells was measured.
Methods: After taking peripheral blood from patient with type 2 diabetes, mononuclear cells were extracted by Ficoll Method. Cells were a culture with two different concentration of garlic extract (10% and 30%) for 48 and 24 hours. Then for measuring TNF-α and IFNγ release level, ELISA method was used.
Results: Garlic extract can reduce the amount of TNF-α secretion from cells mononuclear, although the timing and concentration of the extract had no effect on the results. Moreover, garlic extract had no effect on the secretion of IFNγ.
Conclusion: Using garlic extract can be adopted therapeutic strategies aimed at adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance that is useful for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes.
