Association of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus related SNP genotypes with altered serum adipokine levels and metabolic syndrome phenotypes.

ABSTRACT: The pathogenesis of T2DM involves secretion of several pro-inflammatory molecules by the dramatically increased adipocytes, both by number and size, and associated macrophages of adipose tissue. Since T2DM is usually preceded by obesity and chronic systemic inflammation, the objective of this study was to explore for any association between genetic variants of previously established 36 T2DM-associated SNPs and altered serum adipocytokine levels and metabolic syndrome phenotypes. Study consisted of 566 subjects (284 males and 282 females) of whom 147 were T2DM patients and 419 healthy controls. Study subjects were genotyped for 36 T2DM-linked single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using the KASPar SNP Genotyping System and grouped into different genotypes for each SNP. Various anthropometric and biochemical parameters were measured following standard procedures. The mean values of serum levels of individual adipocytokines and the presence/absence of metabolic syndrome phenotypes corresponding to various genotypes were compared by determining the odds ratios. Genotypic variants of five and seven of the 36 T2DM-related SNPs were significantly associated with altered serum levels of adiponectin and aPAI, respectively. Six variants of the 36 SNPs were associated with metabolic syndrome manifestations. This study identified positive associations between genotypic variants of five and seven of the 36 T2DM related SNPs and altered serum levels of adiponectin and aPAI, respectively. Six of 36 SNPs were also associated with metabolic syndrome in the studied population. The relation between specific SNPs and individual phenotypic traits may be useful in explaining the causal mechanisms of hereditary component of T2DM.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Apelin is an adipokine that plays a role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and in obesity. The relationship between apelin serum concentration and dysmetabolic conditions such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) is still controversial. Aims of our study are: 1) determine the circulating levels of apelin in a large cohort of Italian subjects with T2D, T1D and in non-diabetic controls; 2) identify putative metabolic determinants of modified apelin concentrations, in order to search possible mechanism of apelin control; 3) investigate changes in apelin levels in response to sharp modifications of glucose/insulin metabolism in T2D obese subjects before and 3 days after bariatric surgery. METHODS: We recruited 369 subjects, 119 with T2D, 113 with T1D and 137 non-diabetic controls. All subjects underwent a complete clinical examination, including anthropometric and laboratory measurements. Serum apelin levels were determined by EIA (immunoenzyme assay). RESULTS: Patients with T2D had significantly higher serum apelin levels compared to controls (1.23 ± 1.1 ng/mL vs 0.91 ± 0.7 ng/mL, P<0.001) and to T1D subjects (0.73 ± 0.39 ng/mL, P<0.001). Controls and T1D subjects did not differ significantly in apelin levels. Apelin concentrations were directly associated with fasting blood glucose (FBG), body mass index (BMI), basal Disposition Index (DI-0), age, and diagnosis of T2D at bivariate correlation analysis. Multiple regression analysis confirmed that diagnosis of T2D, basal DI-0 and FBG were all determinants of serum apelin levels independently from age and BMI. Bariatric surgery performed in a subgroup of obese diabetic subjects (n = 12) resulted in a significant reduction of apelin concentrations compared to baseline levels (P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates that T2D, but not T1D, is associated with increased serum apelin levels compared to non-diabetic subjects. This association is dependent on impaired glucose homeostasis, and disappears after bariatric surgery, providing further evidence regarding the relationship between apelin and the regulation of glucose metabolism.

Project description:Background Cytochrome P450 system is implicated in vascular pathologies, including stroke. Besides its role as a drug metabolizer, it also plays an important role in the metabolism of several endogenous substances like fatty acids, arachidonic acid, etc., which have pro-inflammatory effects. On the other hand, leptin and adiponectin are two of the most common adipose tissue-derived cytokines (adipokines), which are pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory in nature, respectively. Both of them are implicated in the pathogenesis of stroke. Methods We prospectively recruited ischemic stroke patients (within three months of occurrence of an attack of stroke). The occurrence of composite outcome (recurrence of transient ischemic attack/ischemic stroke or death) was evaluated for association with genetic variants of CYP2C19 (allele *2, *17, *3, and *4, i.e., single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 1/2/3/4, identified using TaqMan assays and DNA sequencing). Adiponectin and leptin levels were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Comparisons were made between stroke vs. control patients and between CYP2C19 intermediate metabolizer (IM)/poor metabolizer (PM) vs. extensive metabolizer (EM)/ultra metabolizer (UM) (PM: *2/*2; IM: *1/*2 vs. EM: *1/*1; UM: *1/*17). P < 0.05 was taken as the threshold for statistical significance. Results A total of 204 patients and 101 controls were recruited. With regard to the occurrence of stroke, SNP2 showed a significant positive association. Haplotypes (SNP1/SNP2) AC (OR = 1.75 (1.08-2.83), p = 0.024) and GT (OR = 3.33 (1.53-7.22), p = 0.0026) were strongly associated with the occurrence of ischemic stroke even after adjustment for age and sex (global haplotype association p-value: 0.0062). Haplotype phenotype gender interaction was evident. Among stroke patients, with regard to composite outcome, only SNP1 showed a positive association. The AC haplotype was significantly associated with the occurrence of composite outcome (OR = 2.27 (1.17-4.41), p = 0.016). Among stroke patients, a significant positive association was seen between death and SNP1 (OR = 2.35 (1.13-4.90), p = 0.021) and AC haplotype (OR = 2.73 (1.20-6.22), p = 0.018). However, none of the SNPs or haplotypes showed any association with recurrence. Significant higher leptin and lower adiponectin levels were observed among stroke patients compared to controls. Leptin levels were higher in IM/PM group. IM/PM phenotypes showed a higher incidence of occurrence of composite outcome (hazard ratio = 2.07 (0.96-4.47), p = 0.056). Conclusion CYP2C19 polymorphisms may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of stroke. Leptin could serve as a prominent biomarker of atherosclerosis and inflammation in the early post-stroke period; however, further study is warranted with a larger sample size.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate whether soluble frizzled-related protein 4 (sFRP4) concentration in the first trimester of pregnancy is individually, or in combination with Leptin, Chemerin and/or Adiponectin, associated with the development of gestational diabetes (GDM).MethodsIn a nested case-control study, 50 women with GDM who spontaneously conceived and delivered a live-born infant were matched with a total of 100 uncomplicated singleton control pregnancies based on body mass index (± 2 kg/m2), gestational age at sampling (exact day) and maternal age (± 2 years). In serum samples, obtained between 70-90 days gestational age, sFRP4, Chemerin, Leptin and Adiponectin concentrations were determined by ELISA. Statistical comparisons were performed using univariate and multi-variate logistic regression analysis after logarithmic transformation of the concentrations. Discrimination of the models was assessed by the area under the curve (AUC).ResultsFirst trimester sFRP4 concentrations were significantly increased in GDM cases (2.04 vs 1.93 ng/ml; p<0.05), just as Chemerin (3.19 vs 3.15 ng/ml; p<0.05) and Leptin (1.44 vs 1.32 ng/ml; p<0.01). Adiponectin concentrations were significantly decreased (2.83 vs 2.94 ng/ml; p<0.01) in GDM cases. Further analysis only showed a weak, though significant, correlation of sFRP4 with Chemerin (R2 = 0.124; p<0.001) and Leptin (R2 = 0.145; p<0.001), and Chemerin with Leptin (R2 = 0.282; p<0.001) in the control group. In a multivariate logistic regression model of these four markers, only Adiponectin showed to be significantly associated with GDM (odds ratio 0.12, 95%CI 0.02-0.68). The AUC of this model was 0.699 (95%CI 0.605-0.793).ConclusionIn the first trimester of pregnancy, a multi-marker model with sFRP4, Leptin, Chemerin and Adiponectin is associated with the development of GDM. Therefore, this panel seems to be an interesting candidate to further evaluate for prediction of GDM in a prospective study.

Project description:BackgroundBariatric surgery is considered to be the most effective treatment option for weight reduction in obese patients. Abdominal obesity is frequently accompanied by metabolic syndrome (MS). Adipokines are cell signaling proteins that have direct impact upon the metabolic homeostasis. The purpose of this analysis was to evaluate the effect of bariatric surgery, including laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic gastric bypass (LRYGB) on the adipokine levels and metabolic profile as well as MS and status of type 2 diabetes (T2D).MethodsWe analyzed anthropometric parameters, blood levels of adipokines, vitamins, lipids and inflammatory markers in 30 bariatric surgery patients with obesity of class II or III 1 month before and 1 year after surgery as well as in 60 obese patients from general practice (GP) and 15 patients with normal body mass (control).ResultsThe BMI was significantly higher among patients before surgery and GP patients in comparison to control and post-surgery patients. The levels of glucose, cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride and hs-CRP were the highest in patients before surgery but decreased significantly after surgery, while the level of HDL-cholesterol increased after surgery. The levels of adiponectin increased and that of leptin decreased after surgery. The significant difference in the concentration of resistin was revealed between LSG and LRYGB methods. The relationship between resistin and vitamin D was also found. The patients with MS and T2D displayed significantly greater reduction in lipid markers and adipokine levels than the rest of patients.ConclusionRemarkable changes in levels of adipokines after bariatric surgery appear like increase in adiponectin and decrease in leptin levels. Significant improvement in anthropometric parameters, metabolic and inflammatory markers occurs, suggesting high potential for reduction of metabolic syndrome and risk for type 2 diabetes. We have shown for the first time ever that level of vitamin D may be involved in resistin regulation.
