Region-specific susceptibility change in cognitively impaired patients with diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Emerging evidence suggests that diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with iron and calcium metabolism. However, few studies have investigated the presence of DM in cognitively impaired patients and its effect on brain iron and calcium accumulation. Therefore, we assessed the effects of DM on cognitively impaired patients using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM). From June 2012 to Feb 2014, 92 eligible cognitively impaired patients underwent 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). There were 46 patients with DM (DM+) and 46 aged matched patients without DM (DM-). QSM was obtained from gradient echo data and analyzed by drawing regions of interest around relevant anatomical structures. Clinical factors and vascular pathology were also evaluated. Measurement differences between DM+ and DM- patients were assessed by t tests. A multiple regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of magnetic susceptibility. DM+ patients showed lower susceptibility values, indicative of lower brain iron content, than DM- patients, which was significant in the hippocampus (4.80 ± 8.31 ppb versus 0.22 ± 10.60 ppb, p = 0.024) and pulvinar of the thalamus (36.30 ± 19.88 ppb versus 45.90 ± 20.02 ppb, p = 0.023). On multiple regression analysis, microbleed number was a predictor of susceptibility change in the hippocampus (F = 4.291, beta = 0.236, p = 0.042) and DM was a predictor of susceptibility change in the pulvinar of the thalamus (F = 4.900, beta = - 0.251, p = 0.030). In cognitively impaired patients, presence of DM was associated with lower susceptibility change in the pulvinar of the thalamus and hippocampus. This suggests that there may be region-specific alterations of calcium deposition in cognitively impaired subjects with DM.

Project description:Preclinical models of type 1 diabetes mellitus exhibit marked declines in skeletal muscle health including significant impairments in muscle repair. The present study investigated, for the first time, whether muscle repair was altered in young adults with uncomplicated type 1 diabetes (T1D) following damaging exercise.In this cohort study, eighteen physically-active young adults (M=22.1, SEM=0.9 years) with T1D (n, male/female=4/5; MHbA1c= 58, SEMHbA1c=5.9 mmol/mol) and without T1D (n, male/female=4/5) performed 300 unilateral eccentric contractions (90°s-1) of the knee extensors. Prior to exercise, at 48-hours and at 96-hours after exercise, participants gave a venous blood sample and vastus lateralis biopsy and performed a maximal voluntary isometric knee extension. Skeletal muscle extracellular matrix content, and satellite cell content/proliferation were assessed by immunofluorescence. Transmission electron microscopy was used to quantify ultrastructural damage.Maximal isometric strength was comparable between T1D and their sex-matched control group prior to exercise for both sexes. Immediately following damaging exercise, strength was decreased in both groups but there was a moderate effect size for lower strength during recovery in the T1D group at both 48-hours and 96-hours. Serum creatine kinase, an indicator of muscle damage, was moderately higher in T1D participants compared to controls at rest, and exhibited a small elevation 96-hours after exercise. Immunofluorescence analyses showed satellite cell content was lower at all timepoints in those with type 1 diabetes. T1D participants demonstrated a moderate delay in satellite cell proliferation (as assessed by Pax7+/Ki67+ nuclei counts) after exercise, reaching peak levels of proliferation 48-hours after control participants. Despite these differences, those with T1D did not exhibit greater ultrastructural muscle damage than controls as assessed by electron microscopy. Finally, a transcriptomic investigation of T1D muscle revealed several networks of dysregulated genes involving RNA translation as well as mitochondrial respiration function, providing potential explanations for previous observations of mitochondrial dysfunction in similar T1D cohorts. Our novel findings indicate that skeletal muscle from physically active, young adults with moderately controlled T1D may have a reduced ability to handle, and repair from, damaging exercise. While larger cohort studies are clearly needed, these results suggest that those with T1D may require longer recovery times following damaging exercise.
