Effect of vitamin E supplementation on HDL function by haptoglobin genotype in type 1 diabetes: results from the HapE randomized crossover pilot trial.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Haptoglobin (Hp) genotype 2-2 increases cardiovascular diabetes complications. In type 2 diabetes, ?-tocopherol was shown to lower cardiovascular risk in Hp 2-2, potentially through HDL function improvements. Similar type 1 diabetes data are lacking. We conducted a randomized crossover pilot of ?-tocopherol supplementation on HDL function [i.e., cholesterol efflux (CE) and HDL-associated lipid peroxides (LP)] and lipoprotein subfractions in type 1 diabetes.Hp genotype was assessed in members of two Allegheny County, PA, type 1 diabetes registries and the CACTI cohort; 30 were randomly selected within Hp genotype, and 28 Hp 1-1, 31 Hp 2-1 and 30 Hp 2-2 were allocated to daily ?-tocopherol or placebo for 8 weeks with a 4-week washout.Baseline CE decreased with the number of Hp 2 alleles (p-trend = 0.003). There were no differences in LP or lipoprotein subfractions. In intention-to-treat analysis stratified by Hp, ?-tocopherol increased CE in Hp 2-2 (? = 0.79, p = 0.03) and LP in Hp 1 allele carriers (? Hp 1-1 = 0.18, p = 0.05; ? Hp 2-1 = 0.21, p = 0.07); reduced HDL particle size (? = -0.07, p = 0.03) in Hp 1-1 carriers; increased LDL particle concentration in Hp 1-1; and decreased it in Hp 2-2 carriers. However, no significant interactions were observed by Hp.In this type 1 diabetes study, HDL function worsened with the number of Hp 2 alleles. ?-Tocopherol improved HDL function in Hp 2-2 carriers and appeared to adversely affect lipid peroxides and lipoprotein subfractions among Hp 1 allele carriers. As no significant interactions were observed, findings require replication in larger studies.
