Analysis of the Serum Lipid Profile in Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy.

ABSTRACT: Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), the predominant subtype of neovascular age-related macular degeneration in the Asian population, is associated with genetic polymorphism of lipid metabolism. In this study, we performed the untargeted lipidomics approach of ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) to reveal the potential discriminating lipid profile of PCV patients in serum (21 PCV patients and 19 age-matched controls). Unsupervised principal component, supervised orthogonal partial least squares analysis, correlation analysis, and heatmap analysis were performed with the data obtained by UPLC-MS. Forty-one discriminating metabolites were identified. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, pathway analysis and functional analysis were performed subsequently, and platelet-activating factor (PAF) was further selected as the key indicator of the distinct lipid metabolism in PCV patients. Finally, the serum level of PAF was validated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, which is significantly higher in PCV patients compared to controls (65 PCV patients and 63 age-matched controls, p?

Project description:BackgroundTo investigate the association of systemic, serum lipids and genetic variants in the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolic pathway with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in China.MethodsThe case-control study was included 150 controls and 66 cases with PCV. Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), HDL, triglycerides (TG), apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1), apolipoprotein B (APOB) together with systemic risk factors including gender, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, coronary artery disease (CAD) and asthma were identified. All subjects were genotyped for four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from three genes in the HDL metabolic pathway: rs10468017 of hepatic lipase (LIPC), rs12678919 of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), rs3764261 and rs173539 of cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Student's t-tests, chi-square tests, anova and logistic regression were used to evaluate associations.ResultsHyperlipidemia was a risk factor (odds ratio (OR) = 1.19, P = 0.001) for PCV. HDL, LDL and APOB levels were associated with PCV (OR = 0.001, P = 0.004; OR = 0.099, P = 0.010; OR = 0.839, P = 0.018). Higher level of TC was potently associated with increased risk of PCV (OR = 109.8, P = 0.000). LIPC rs10468017 was a risk factor for PCV (OR = 11.68, P = 0.000). CETP rs3764261 conferred a decreased risk for PCV (OR = 0.08, P = 0.000). No associations of LPL rs12678919 or CETP rs173539 with PCV were found. Mean level of HDL increased with T allele of the CETP gene (p = 0.026): 1.24 mmol/L (±0.31) for the GG genotype and 1.66 mmol/L (±0.54) for the TT genotype. Additionally, T allele was associated with the following increase in APOA1: 136.78 mg/dl (±20.53) for the CC genotype and 149.57 mg/dl (±22.67) for the TT genotype of LIPC and 137.91 mg/dl (±20.36) for the GG genotype and 162.67 mg/dl (±22.50) for the TT genotype of CETP gene.ConclusionOur study suggested that the significant association was found between hyperlipidemia, the serum levels of TC, HDL, LDL and APOB and PCV. The result of present study also showed that the association of LIPC rs10468017 and CETP rs3764261 with PCV.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the status and evolution of polypoidal lesions during the course of treatment of patients with symptomatic macular polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).DesignComparative cohort study of randomly selected patients from a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial.ParticipantsThirty randomly selected patients from the EVEREST II study who were treated with combination ranibizumab and verteporfin photodynamic therapy (n = 15) or ranibizumab monotherapy (n = 15).MethodsAll patients were randomized at baseline and treated with a standardized treatment protocol. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) images were graded at the central reading center at baseline and months 3, 6, 12, and 24. Polypoidal lesions present at baseline were overlaid on ICGA images at subsequent visits to determine if these remained perfused or had regressed completely. New polypoidal lesions occurring at subsequent visits were similarly tracked to detail the evolution of each polypoidal lesion.Main outcome measuresComplete polypoidal lesion regression over time.ResultsComplete polypoidal lesion regression was higher in the combination therapy group compared with the monotherapy group at all visits (month 12, 12 of 15 patients [80%] vs. 5 of 14 patients [35.7%]; P = 0.016). Persistence of baseline polypoidal lesions was lower in the combination therapy group: 1 of 15 patients (6.7%) versus 7 of 14 patients (50%) in the monotherapy group at month 12. Recurrences of polypoidal lesions that had regressed completely at an earlier time point were uncommon: 0% in the combination therapy group and 1 patient each at months 6 and 12 in the monotherapy group. Fewer new polypoidal lesions (arising after the baseline visit) were found in the combination therapy group at all visits (combination therapy: 2 of 15 [13.3%] vs. monotherapy: 4 of 14 eyes [28.6%] at month 12). Total polypoidal lesion area was significantly smaller in the combination therapy group compared with the monotherapy group throughout the study (0.013 mm2 vs. 0.110 mm2; P < 0.01 at month 12).ConclusionsCombination therapy was associated with higher rates of complete polypoidal lesion regression and fewer persistent polypoidal lesions compared with monotherapy. Closed polypoidal lesions rarely reopened, regardless of the treatment.
