Mrs. Jones is a 69 y/o female who went to the emergency
room because she was having chest pressure along
with numbness and tingling in her hands and feet. She
states that her initial symptoms began 2 weeks ago
when she was just “tired”. Her pain is mid sternum and
she states it is “pressure like”. She tells you that the
pain radiates to both of her elbows but then went
away
She denies SOB, nausea, or vomiting. She had no further
episodes until 2 days ago, after eating in a restaurant
she experienced the same exact symptoms, with
pressure like sensation radiating to both of her arms.

What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a group of
diseases known for
increased blood glucose.
This is a result from
defects in insulin
production, action, or
both. This disease can
lead to serious
complications and
premature death.
Types of Diabetes Includes:
Type 1 – when the body’s immune system
mistakenly destroys pancreatic beta cells. People
with this require insulin.
Type 2 – insulin secretion is impaired and the body
cannot adequately control blood glucose levels from
one moment to the next eventually causing the long
term complications associated with diabetes.
Gestational – a form of glucose intolerance
associated with pregnancy
This tutorial focuses primarily on
Type
2 Diabetes.
Other – can be associated
with
genetics, infections,
failure of pancreas to work.

Significance of the Disease
Fact 1
“According to WHO, diabetes is a growing
public health threat, affecting an
estimated 177 million people worldwide
in 2000, up from an estimated 30 million
in 1985”.
Fact 2
Type 2 diabetes; also known as “adult
onset diabetes” initially disease of older
adults was thought to be highly due to
obesity and sedentary lifestyles, it has
since grown at epidemic rates in recent
years and is rapidly increasingly among
young adults and even children.
Fact 3
“Diabetes is a leading cause of end-stage
kidney disease, heart attacks, strokes,
eye disease and blindness, diabetic foot
disease and other costly complications”.
Fact 4
“Research has demonstrated that clearly
expert diabetes care that keeps blood
glucose near normal can reduce the risks
of developing complications, and can
markedly slow the rate at which
complications progress”.

Pathophysiology of Diabetes
The Pancreas is the major
organ involved with Type II
diabetes. Having a dual role;
the Pancreas is responsible
for:
• Exocrine Fx: is to produce
the enzymes needed to
digest food.
• Endocrine Fx: is to
produce hormones such as
insulin, which facilitates the
uptake and storage of
glucose and proteins.
http://www.nlm.nih.gov
Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Normal Pancreatic Function
After you eat, nutrients such as
carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are
broken down by the digestive system
Of these nutrients is Glucose rises in the
blood stream, allowing the pancreas
receives a signal to release insulin.
The insulin, attaches to a place on
the cell much the same way a key would
fit into a lock creating the energy needed
for the muscle to contract bringing down
glucose level
www.stemcells.nih.gov
Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Pancreatic Dysfunction also known as:
Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance is when the cells stop
responding to insulin, meaning the door
which allows glucose to enter won't open.
The amount of glucose in the blood becomes
elevated. As long as there is too much glucose in
the blood, and too little glucose in the cell, the
pancreas will continue to produce insulin until
the glucose level goes down.
However, if the cells in the body have become
insulin resistant, the amount of glucose in blood
will never go down. As the pancreas continues
to try to lower glucose levels by producing more
insulin, it will eventually wear itself out.
www.stemcells.nih.gov
The Effects of Diabetes on the Body
With the inability of glucose to enter the cells, resulting in a
high amount of glucose build up in the bloodstream, the cells are
not able to produce energy for the body. When diabetes is not
tightly managed by keeping the amount of sugar at “just” the right
levels, the resulting high glucose amounts damage and weaken the
walls of nearly every organ; leading to scar tissue damage and
decreased healing processes.
Complications of Diabetes Include:
– Heart Disease and Stroke
– Vision Loss and Blindness ( Diabetic Retinopathy)
– Kidney Failure (Diabetic Nephropathy)
– Amputation (Diabetic Neuropathy)
True Or False
Case Study Question
• Does Mrs. Jones elevated blood glucose play a
role in the symptoms she presents with?
True
False
Why the body needs Glucose
What the
Body Needs
Why we
need glucose
The Key
• The body's cells are designed so that they function best when there is a certain
amount of glucose, or sugar, in the fluid that surrounds them. Too much glucose in
the body will turn the fluid that surrounds the body's cells into a bath of sugar that
hinders many normal functions of these cells.
• Glucose is the body's main source of energy, but glucose must get inside cells to
create the energy that the cells need to function. The problem is that cells have a
membrane or covering around the outside that won't let glucose in. This is where
insulin becomes important, because it is insulin that opens up cells to glucose.
• Maintaining a constant level of glucose is a delicate process that is controlled by the
pancreas and the insulin it produces. Glucose levels in the blood lead the pancreas
to release just the right amount of insulin to keep the amount of glucose in the
blood stream and surrounding the cells at an even level.
The Pancreatic Function in
Diabetes
•The pancreas, actually pulls double duty as a digestive organ., placed behind the
stomach, the spongy pancreas secretes both digestive enzymes and endocrine
hormones. The exocrine tissues of pancreas secrete digestive enzymes that are key
in processing carbohydrates, proteins and other nutrients.
•The liver is another key organ, that is responsible for glucose storage and
converting glucose to glycogen, then stored in the liver to be reconverted to energy.
•Together, the liver and pancreas preserve a delicate balance of blood glucose and
insulin, produced in sufficient amounts to both fuel cells and maintain glycogen
storage.
After you eat, nutrients such as
carbohydrates, fats, and
proteins are broken down by
the digestive system.
Too much glucose inside
blood, not enough inside
cell, pancreas continues to
make insulin eventually
wears out.
Of these nutrients is
Glucose rises in the blood
stream, allowing the
pancreas receives a signal to
release insulin.

Diabetes and Stress
Stress is not a direct cause of
diabetes. However; stress can increase your
risk of developing the disease ,and it is
responsible for exacerbating your symptoms if
you already suffer from the disease.
The link between stress and diabetes is the
direct effect that stress has on the body’s
blood sugar level causing it to become
elevated
The rise in blood sugar levels, is part of the
body’s natural response to stress known as
“Fight or Flight” Response

hyperinsulinemia in persons with type
2 DM, but plays a major role in
• Metabolic Abnormalities , such as:
– Obesity
– Increased levels of triglycerides
– Low levels of (HDL)
– Hypertension
– Systemic Inflammation
• Detected by (CRP) C-reactive Protein
– It has been found that people with central
trunkal obesity are at greater risk for
developing Type 2 DM and Metabolic
syndromes.
90% of Type 2 Diabetics are overweight and
are more prone to insulin resistance and
impaired suppression of glucose
production by the liver.

Diabetes and Genetics
• There are “diabetic genes” which play a
role in diabetes.
– Variations known as single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) may play a factor in diabetes.
– It is thought that two genes, calpain 10 (CAPN10) and
hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4A), have
been identified as playing a factor in diabetes.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1665
• Patients who have a family history of
diabetes are more likely to develop the
disease.
N. Americans 15.1%, A. Americans 13.3%, H. Americans 9.5%

Facts about Coronary Heart
Disease
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the single leading killer
of American men and women, causing approximately 500,000
deaths per year 1 of every 5 deaths.
– About 85% of people who die from CAD are 65 or older. Over half the
people who die suddenly of this disease had no previous symptoms.
– Coronary artery disease affects almost 11 million American people,
divided almost equally between men and women.
– This disease is the leading cause of premature, permanent disability in
the US labor force, accounting for 19% of disability allowance by the
Social Security Administration.
Coronary Artery Disease
• A condition in which plaque builds up inside
the coronary arteries.
Coronary
• These arteries supply your heart muscle with
Heart Disease oxygen-rich blood and become narrow.
The Plaque
• Plaque is composed of fat, cholesterol,
calcium, and other substances found in the
blood. As it builds up in arteries the vessels
become hardened.
• Narrowing of the arteries reduces blood flow
to your heart muscle.
• There is a potential for blood clots to form in
your arteries as well.
Complications
• A crack or damage in the plaque can lead to
of Plaque
heart attacks.

The Pathway
of
Diabetes Atherosclerosis
Hyperglycemia from uncontrolled
diabetes can accelerate cholesterol
plaque formation and advance
vascular disease at a rate greater
than patient's without diabetes.
"Inflammation in blood vessels is one
of the main drivers of atherosclerosis,
and diabetes makes it much worse,"
(AGEs), produced in greater levels
by patients with diabetes, interfere
with ERK5 cardio protection.
Glycation reactions cause the
release of oxidizing side products
like hydrogen peroxide (H202) that
drive free radical production,
inflammation and cell damage in
many diseases.
AGEs=

tarting with the
atherosclerotic plaques that get
deposited inside the arteries
decreasing blood flow to organs
and vital structures.
“Researchers found that AGEs and
H202 sabotage ERK5 by encouraging
the attachment to it of a small
ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO), a
protein tag used by cells to fine-tune
their control over proteins.”
In normal function, a cell may
extend a protein's life span or send
it from one part of the cell to
another, by attaching a SUMO tag
In summary, research found that
taking away the "SUMO tag" from
ERK protects blood vessels against
diabetes," It’s believed that the
SUMOylation of ERK turns off 'good'
genes that are important in
countering atherosclerosis.”
