title: [Changes in functional state of the low-molecular G-proteins of platelets in type 1 diabetes mellitus].
abstract: Platelets from healthy donors and insuline dependent patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus were examined for proteins specifically interacting in vitro with GST-fused constitutively active (Val12) forms of small GTPases of Rac, Rho and Cdc42. Differential changes in pattern of proteins which bind to these G-proteins in diabetic platelets have been revealed. Obtained results suggest that signalling pathways mediated by Rho GTPases are altered under type I diabetes mellitus. Such changes of actin cytoskeleton regulation may contribute to the higher level of platelet aggregation, which prove to be the etiological background of the late diabetes complications.
