INTRODUCTION: Diabetes mellitus (DM) arises from insufficiencies in insulin secretion and action. The pancreatic α-amylase enzyme is involved in starch metabolism and influences glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level. The current study examines relationships between blood glucose level, α-amylase activity, HbA1c, and several trace elements (Cu, Zn, and Mg).
CASE DESCRIPTION: Eighteen healthy control subjects and 31 patients with type 2 diabetes from both genders were recruited for this study. The enzymatic colorimetric method was used to assess serum glucose levels and α-amylase activity. The boronate affinity method and atomic absorption spectroscopy were used to measure HbA1c and trace elements, respectively.
DISCUSSION: In comparison to the control group, the diabetes groups' mean levels of α-amylase were slightly higher. The Cu level was significantly increased (P < 0.05) in the patient group, whereas Zn and Mg levels did not change significantly. HbA1c demonstrated a significant negative correlation (r = -0.394, P < 0.05) with α-amylase in patients with diabetes. The α-amylase also exhibited a negative correlation with glucose level in these patients. Cu level increased in hyperglycemia, and α-amylase negatively correlated with Cu. The diabetes group's HbA1c and Zn levels were inversely correlated, which suggests that uncontrolled DM causes a reduction in Zn levels. Cu and Mg correlated positively with HbA1c in healthy people but not in people with diabetes.
CONCLUSION: As the enzyme α-amylase correlated with HbA1c and glucose levels, it may serve as a supplementary marker of pancreatic exocrine involvement in patients with diabetes, but its predictive or diagnostic utility remains unproven. The pathophysiology of DM is complicated by altered trace element levels.
