Protocol summary

Study aim
Determine the oral zinc supplementation effect on superoxide dismutase gene expression and enzyme activity, stress-oxidative index, in type 2 diabetic patients.
Design
double blind clinical trial, phase III, on 70 type 2 diabetic patients. Participants will be randomly divided to two groups, intervention(35) and control(35).
Settings and conduct
patient with type 2 diabetes, who referred to Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases Clinic of Endocrinology and Metabolism Research Institute. 7 mL blood samples will be taken from each participant after 12 hour fasting condition. In other words, we will allocate 2ml blood in EDTA tube for gene analysis and HbA1c assay, and 5ml in plain tube for biochemistry assays.Biochemical data will be evaluated and reported before and after the 8 weeks of supplementation for all patients at the end of study. In this study, all the participants, the primary researcher, health care providers, sample collectors, and those who prepare manuscript draft were blinded.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: male/female with age 40-65, type 2 diabetes, Exclusion criteria: cigarette smoking, cancer, thyroid or gastrointestinal or renal disorders, antibiotics and vitamin.
Intervention groups
The case groups will take 25 mg the gluconate Zinc capsule (twice daily), and the control group will take Avicel capsule twice daily.
Main outcome variables
Superoxide dismutase gene expression, superoxide dismutase activity, Zinc, Fasting Blood Sugar, Hemoglobin A1c, Nitrotyrosine, Total antioxidant capacity ,Total oxidant capacity, Malondialdehyde, Insulin, Body mass index
