Changes in endotoxin levels in T2DM subjects on anti-diabetic therapies

Chronic low-grade inflammation is a significant factor in the development of obesity associated diabetes. This is supported by recent studies suggesting endotoxin, derived from gut flora, may be key to the development of inflammation by stimulating the secretion of an adverse cytokine profile from adipose tissue.The study investigated the relationship between endotoxin and various metabolic parameters of diabetic patients to determine if...
