- Objectives: Hyperglycaemia-induced inflammation plays a vital role in the development of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Recent evidences had reported the involvement of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cell (NF-κB) in diabetic experimental models. So, this pilot study aimed to evaluate serum NF-κB levels in DPN patients. Methods: We recruited 50 T2DM patients, of which 25 were T2DM with neuropathy and 25 were T2DM without neuropathy. In all the participants peripheral neuropathy was diagnosed based on Total neuropathy score (TNS). Serum NF-κB levels were measured by ELISA. Results: We observed that the serum NF-κB levels were higher in DPN patients in comparison to T2DM patients without neuropathy. On spearman correlation, a positive correlation was found between serum NF-κB levels and TNS in the DPN group (r=0.741, p<0.001). The regression model shows the TNS to be an independent determinant of serum NF-κB levels after adjustment for potential confounders like age, duration of diabetes, and HbA1C (B=81.34; p<0.001). Conclusions: NF-κB activation plays a key role in promoting inflammation which is associated with the progression of DPN. In this respect, the study of NF-κB levels in serum may be an additional diagnostic marker for DPN.
