Given that diabetes-associated complications are closely associated with neuroinflammation, it is imperative to study potential changes in neuroinflammatory modulators in the central nervous system of diabetic primates. The mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, toll-like receptors (TLR), growth factors, and cannabinoid receptors were compared in the spinal dorsal horn (SDH) and thalamus of naturally occurring type 2 diabetic monkeys and an age-matched control group using reverse transcription and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. In the SDH of diabetic monkeys, we observed increases in the mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (i.e., interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα)), TLR1, and TLR2, and decreases in the mRNA levels of interleukin-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine. No changes were observed in the mRNA levels of growth factors and cannabinoid receptors. In line with the mRNA data, TNFα-immunoreactivity was also significantly increased in diabetic monkeys. Moreover, the mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1β, TNFα, TLR1, and TLR2 in the SDH were positively correlated with plasma glucose levels in all monkeys. Several ligands and receptors involved in neuroinflammation are simultaneously dysregulated in the spinal cord of diabetic monkeys. This primate disease model will facilitate the design of novel treatment approaches to ameliorate neuroinflammation-driven adverse effects in diabetic patients.
