Brief Summary
This study aims to investigate whether new glucose-lowering medications, such as SGLT2 inhibitors (e.g., Forxiga/Jardiance) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., Ozempic), can reduce NETosis in diabetic patients, thereby mitigating secondary complications such as cardiovascular disease and kidney damage. By targeting dysregulated NET formation, the study seeks to establish a link between reduced NETosis and improved clinical outcomes in diabetes. Additionally, the study will evaluate the effects of immunosuppressive therapies on NETosis in patients with immune-mediated kidney diseases, such as ANCA-associated vasculitis. By correlating NETosis activity with disease progression and treatment response, this research will assess whether reducing NETosis contributes to better management of inflammation and secondary morbidity in these conditions. Through these evaluations, the study aims to identify potential therapeutic strategies to improve outcomes in both diabetic and chronic kidney disease populations.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: DM therapy study: - Diabetic patients aged 18 years or older (men and women). * Patients who have not previously received SGLT2 inhibitors or GLP-1 receptor agonists. -Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients :50 CKD patients with various etiologies. • Focus: * This part of the study will specifically evaluate immune-mediated kidney disease, such as ANCA-associated vasculitis, and the effects of immunosuppressive therapy on NETosis. • Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with acute infections, hematologic or oncologic diseases, or positive for HIV or Hepatitis B/C
