Reproducibility of NIRS assessment of muscle oxidative capacity in smokers with and without COPD.

ABSTRACT: Low muscle oxidative capacity contributes to exercise intolerance in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) allows non-invasive determination of the muscle oxygen consumption (mV?O2) recovery rate constant (k), which is proportional to oxidative capacity assuming two conditions are met: 1) exercise intensity is sufficient to fully-activate mitochondrial oxidative enzymes; 2) sufficient O2 availability. We aimed to determine reproducibility (coefficient of variation, CV; intraclass correlation coefficient, ICC) of NIRS k assessment in the gastrocnemius of 64 participants with (FEV1 64±23%predicted) or without COPD (FEV1 98±14%predicted). 10-15s dynamic contractions preceded 6min of intermittent arterial occlusions (5-10s each, ?250mmHg) for k measurement. k was lower (P<0.05) in COPD (1.43±0.4min-1; CV=9.8±5.9%, ICC=0.88) than controls (1.74±0.69min-1; CV=9.9±8.4%; ICC=0.93). Poor k reproducibility was more common when post-contraction mV?O2 and deoxygenation were low, suggesting insufficient exercise intensity for mitochondrial activation and/or the NIRS signal contained little light reflected from active muscle. The NIRS assessment was well tolerated and reproducible for muscle dysfunction evaluation in COPD.

Project description:PurposeChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with altered metabolism and body composition that accompany poor outcomes. We aimed to determine whether metabolic derangements in COPD are associated with skeletal muscle deconditioning and/or physical inactivity, independent of pulmonary obstruction.MethodsWe characterized serum metabolites associated with muscle oxidative capacity or physical activity in 44 COPD patients (forced expiratory volume in 1 s [FEV1] = 61% ± 4% predicted) and 63 current and former smokers with normal spirometry (CON) (FEV1 = 93% ± 2% predicted). Medial gastrocnemius oxidative capacity was assessed at rest from the recovery rate constant (k) of muscle oxygen consumption using near-infrared spectroscopy. Step counts and physical activity (average vector magnitude units [VMU] per minute) were measured over 5-7 d using triaxial accelerometry. Untargeted prime and lipid metabolites were measured using liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.ResultsMuscle k (1.12 ± 0.05 vs 1.68 ± 0.06 min, P < 0.0001, d = 1.58) and VMU per minute (170 ± 26 vs 450 ± 50 VMU per minute, P = 0.004, d = 1.04) were lower in severe COPD (FEV1 < 50% predicted, n = 14-16) compared with CON (n = 56-60). A total of 129 prime metabolites and 470 lipids with known identity were quantified. Using sex as a covariate, lipidomics revealed 24 differentially expressed lipids (19 sphingomyelins) in COPD, consequent to a diminished sex difference of sphingomyelins in COPD (false discovery rate [FDR] < 0.05, n = 44). Total, and some individual, fatty acid concentrations were greater in severe COPD than CON (FDR < 0.05, n = 16, d = 0.56-1.02). After adjusting for FEV1% predicted, we observed that grouped diacylglycerides (? = -0.745, FDR = 0.03) and triacylglycerides (? = -0.811, FDR = 0.01) were negatively associated with muscle oxidative capacity, but not physical activity, in severe COPD (n = 14).ConclusionStrong negative associations relate impaired mitochondrial function to the accumulation of serum aclyglycerides in severe COPD.

Project description:Upregulation of Expression of the Ubiquitin Carboxyl Terminal Hydrolase L1 Gene in Human Airway Epithelium of Cigarette Smokers The microarray data deposited here is from 39 HG-U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChips, from 12 normal non-smokers, 12 phenotypic normal smokers, 9 Early COPD and 6 COPD individuals, all small airways, all small airway. A subset of these samples have been already submitted under GEO Accession Number GSE 4498. These are: 12 non-smokers samples (GSM101095-GSM101106) and 10 smoker samples (GSM101107-GSM101116). These 22 samples that are also in GSE4498 were described in Harvey, B-G; Heguy, A.; Leopold, P.L.; Carolan, B.; Ferris, B. and Crystal R.G. Modification of Gene Expression of the Small Airway Epithelium in Response to Cigarette Smoking. J. Mol. Med (in press). These data are part of a study aimed at understanding how cigarette smoking modifies neuroendocrine cells, in which microarray analysis with TaqMan confirmation was used to assess airway epithelial samples obtained by fiberoptic bronchoscopy from 81 individuals (normal nonsmokers, normal smokers, smokers with early COPD and smokers with established COPD). Of 11 genes considered to be neuroendocrine cell-specific, only ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1(UCHL1), a member of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway, was consistently upregulated in smokers compared to nonsmokers. Up-regulation of UCHL1 at the protein level was observed with immunohistochemistry of bronchial biopsies of smokers compared to nonsmokers. Interestingly, however, while UCHL1 expression was present only in neuroendocrine cells of the airway epithelium in nonsmokers, UCHL1 expression was also expressed in ciliated epithelial cells in smokers, an intriguing observation in light of recent observations that ciliated cells can are capable of transdifferentiating to other airway epithelium. In the context that UCHL1 is involved in the degradation of unwanted, misfolded or damaged proteins within the cell and is overexpressed in >50% of lung cancers, its overexpression in chronic smokers may represent an early event in the complex transformation from normal epithelium to overt malignancy.
