The loss of cardioprotection observed in premenopausal, diabetic women may result from the interplay between epigenetic, metabolic, and immunological factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentration of sirtuin 1, visfatin, and IL-27 in relation to cardiovascular parameters and Hashimoto's disease (HD) in young, asymptomatic women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Thyroid ultrasound, carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) measurement, electrocardiography, and echocardiography were performed in 50 euthyroid females with T1DM (28 with HD and 22 without concomitant diseases) and 30 controls. The concentrations of serum sirtuin 1, visfatin and IL-27 were assessed using ELISA. The T1DM and HD group had higher cIMT ( p = 0.018) and lower left ventricular global longitudinal strain ( p = 0.025) compared to females with T1DM exclusively. In women with a double diagnosis, the sirtuin 1 and IL-27 concentrations were non-significantly higher than in other groups and significantly positively correlated with each other ( r = 0.445, p = 0.018) and thyroid volume ( r = 0.511, p = 0.005; r = 0.482, p = 0.009, respectively) and negatively correlated with relative wall thickness ( r = -0.451, p = 0.016; r = -0.387, p = 0.041, respectively). These relationships were not observed in the control group nor for the visfatin concentration. These results suggest that sirtuin 1 and IL-27 contribute to the pathogenesis of early cardiac dysfunction in women with T1DM and HD.
