ITGB2 and metabolic syndrome: Validated DEGs verified from T2DMpoorly-DL-P versus H were: TGFB1I1, VNN1, HLADRB4 and CXCL8; T2DMwell-DL-P versus H: FN1, BPTF and PDE3B; DL-P versus H: DAB2, CD47 and HLADRB4; P versus H: IGHDL-P, ITGB2 and HLADRB4. In conclusion, we identified that circulating lymphocytes and monocytes of individuals simultaneously affected by T2DM, dyslipidemia and periodontitis, showed an altered molecular profile mainly associated to inflammatory response, immune cell trafficking, and infectious disease pathways.
