Abstract

The task of this research was to study exogenous insulin effect on blood serum atherogenic potential in patients with type I diabetes mellitus. Under study were relationship between blood serum atherogenic potential in diabetics and daily insulin dose and duration of therapy, as well as exogenous insulin effect on the major atherosclerotic manifestations in tissue cultures, such as intracellular cholesterol content in cultured cells and labeled thymidine incorporation in cellular nuclei DNA. Blood serum atherogenicity did not correlate with insulin dose and duration of insulin therapy both in adult patients and children. Insulin prescription to newly detected patients with type I condition did not influence blood serum atherogenic potential. Exogenic insulin did not influence the major atherosclerotic manifestations at the cellular level, namely, on intracellular cholesterol content in cultured cells and these cells proliferative activity; it had no influence on blood serum atherogenic potential of the patients with type I condition.
