AIM: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a frequent and debilitating complication of diabetes mellitus. The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1) is a multifunctional cell surface receptor playing critical roles in lipoprotein metabolism and several cell signaling processes. C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) is a main conduit to endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis. We aimed to investigate LRP1 and CHOP gene expression in peripheral blood cells of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) subjects to clarify its possible relation to DPN pathogenesis. METHOD: The study included 20 non-complicated T2DM subjects, 20 subjects with DPN and 20 healthy controls. Quantitative real time PCR was used to study gene expression. RESULTS: There was a significant reduction in LRP1 mRNA expression and a significant increase in CHOP mRNA expression in subjects with DPN compared to non-complicated group and healthy controls. Both LRP1 and CHOP expression levels were inversely correlated, and both showed significant correlation with HbA1c, hyperlipidemia, hs-CRP, and different electrophysiological parameters. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis suggested that both LRP1 and CHOP mRNA expression and hs-CRP levels had great potential advantages to predict the progression of DPN. CONCLUSION: LRP1 and CHOP might be involved in DPN pathogenesis and progression, thus providing opportunities for early detection and treatment.
