The total protein (TP) concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the protein fractions analyzed by disc electrophoresis were evaluated in 54 diabetic patients (27 males and 27 females; average age 47) and 12 normal controls (6 males and 6 females; average age 42). The diabetic complications were classified into neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, and microangiopathy (retinopathy and/or nephropathy).<BR>The mean TP concentration in normals was 26±2mg/dl (mean±SEM). In 23 diabetics without any type of complications, it was 33±2mg/dl, which was significantly higher than the value for the normals (p<0.05) but still within the normal range (mean±2 SD of normals). The concentration in 31 diabetics with complication (s) was 54±7mg/dl, which was significantly higher than the value for the diabetics without complications (p<0.01).<BR>A significant correlation was observed between the TP concentrations and the severity of diabetic retinopathy based on Scott's classification (p<0.01). The levels of TP in diabetics with only neuropathy (n=12) were within the normal range, and those in diabetics with microangiopathy alone (n=3) were significantly elevated. No definite correlation was observed between the levels of average fasting blood glucose over 2 weeks prior to CSF collection and the TP concentrations in the CSF of diabetics.<BR>The densitometric tracing patterns of disc electrophoretograms of CSF proteins revealed 8 fractions: prealbumin (PrA), albumin (A), α-lipoprotein (α-LP), α'-globulin (α'-G), transferrin (Tr), β'-globulin (β'-G), γ'-globulin (γ'-G), and slow α2-globulin (sα2-G). The concentrations of the A, α-LP, α'-G, Tr, γ'-G, and sα2-G fractions were significantly increased in diabetics with complication (s) and were significantly correlated with the severity of diabetic retinopathy. In diabetics with microangiopathy, elevated concentrations of A, α'-G, Tr, γ'-G, and sα2-G were observed and markedly high levels of Tr and sα2-G were noticed in diabetics with microangiopathy alone. It was apparent therefore that the elevation of concentrations of the above protein fractions might contribute to the increased TP concentrations in the CSF of diabetics.<BR>The above results suggest that elevated TP concentrations of the CSF in diabetics might occur under the strong influence of diabetic microangiopathy rather than neuropathy, and that the most common pattern in the disc electrophoretograms of CSF total proteins in diabetics with mi croangiopathy is elevated sα2-G fraction protein.
