Abstract

Cardiovascular complications of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) threaten the health and life of numerous individuals. Recently, growth factor receptor-binding protein 10 (GRB10) was found to play a pivotal role in vascular complications of T2DM, which participates in the regulation of lipid metabolism of T2DM patients. The genetic variation of GRB10 rs1800504 is closely related to the risk of coronary heart disease in patients with T2DM. The development of GRB10 as a key mediator in the association of lipid metabolism with cardiovascular complications in T2DM is detailed in and may provide new potential concerns for the study of cardiovascular complications in T2DM patients.

Keywords: Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Growth factor receptor-binding protein 10; Vascular complications; Lipid metabolism

Core Tip: Growth factor receptor-binding protein 10 (GRB10) performs a vital role in vascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). GRB10 variant may be associated with the blood lipids and then may also related to the risk of coronary heart disease in patients with T2DM. GRB10 is expected to be a potential target for the prevention and treatment of vascular complications in patients with T2DM.
