Objective: Associations between albuminuria and renal outcomes are inconsistent in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1 (sTNFR1) is involved in declined kidney function and poor renal outcomes but this has not been confirmed among Chinese T2D patients. This study aimed to examine the association of sTNFR1 and renal outcomes in a cohort of these patients. Methods: Two hundred and eighty-three Chinese T2D patients were enrolled in a prospective observational study which excluded individuals with estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) <30 mL/min/1.73m2. Composite renal outcomes included either or both a >30% decline in eGFR and worsening albuminuria from consecutive tests of blood/urine during a 3.5-year follow-up. Results: Higher sTNFR1 levels were associated with impaired renal outcomes. sTNFR1 levels of ≥979 pg/mL yielded the most sensitivity and specific predictions of renal outcomes according to the receiver operating curve (area under the curve 0.68, P<.001; sensitivity 78.3%, specificity 48.9%). Renal events occurred more frequently in subjects with sTNFR1 ≥979 pg/mL than in others (sTNFR1 <979 pg/mL; 29% versus 10%; P<.001 by log-rank test). The association between sTNFR1 ≥979 pg/mL and renal outcomes remained significant after adjustment for relevant covariates (adjusted hazard ratio 2.43, 95% confidence interval 1.18 to 5.02; P = .01) and consistent across subgroups stratified by age, sex, blood pressure, eGFR, albuminuria, and the use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors. Conclusion: Increased sTNFR1 levels were associated with renal outcomes in Chinese T2D subjects, making sTNFR1 a potential biomarker in diabetic kidney disease.

Introduction. The role of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF?) is well documented in pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis (CP) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Considering short half-life of TNF?, tumor necrosis factor receptor-2 (TNFR2) is used as prosperous surrogate marker of TNF? activity. Objective. The aim was to detect TNFR2 serum concentration and correlate it with periodontal destruction in patients with diagnosed T2D and nondiabetics. Methods. The study included 85 patients divided into three groups: T2D + CP (group T2D, n = 34); nondiabetics + CP (Group PD, n = 27); and healthy controls (group HC, n = 24). T2D was diagnosed according to WHO criteria (2013) and periodontitis was diagnosed using International Workshop for a Classification of Periodontal Diseases and Conditions criteria (1999). TNFR2 level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results. There was no difference in TNFR2 level among the groups (Kruskal-Wallis, p = 0.482). Significant correlation (Pearson?s correlation coefficient) was observed between clinical attachment loss (CAL) and TNFR2 concentration in PD group (rp = -0.460, p = 0.016). In T2D group, correlations were observed between TNFR2 concentration and CAL (rp = 0.363, p = 0.005) and periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) (rp = 0.345, p = 0.046) and periodontal epithelial surface area (PESA) (rp = 0.578, p = 0.000). Conclusion. Higher concentration of TNFR2 was associated with higher CAL, PESA, and PISA scores in T2D group. Contrary to that, nondiabetics with higher values of CAL exhibited lower concentration of TNFR2, presenting potential protective effect on periodontal destruction. These results imply that diabetes may alter TNFR2 secretion originated from periodontium.

Orthodontic tooth movement is dependent on osteoclast activity. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α plays an important role, directly or via chemokine release, in osteoclast recruitment and activation. This study aimed to investigate whether the TNF receptor type 1 (p55) influences these events and, consequently, orthodontic tooth movement. An orthodontic appliance was placed in wild-type mice (WT) and p55-deficient mice (p55−/−). Levels of TNF-α and 2 chemokines (MCP-1/CCL2, RANTES/CCL5) were evaluated in periodontal tissues. A significant increase in CCL2 and TNF-α was observed in both groups after 12 hrs of mechanical loading. However, CCL5 levels remained unchanged in p55−/− mice at this time-point. The number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts in p55−/− mice was significantly lower than that in WT mice. Also, there was a significantly smaller rate of tooth movement in p55−/− mice. Analysis of our data suggests that the TNFR-1 plays a significant role in orthodontic tooth movement that might be associated with changes in CCL5 levels.
