Serum Amino Acids in Association with Prevalent and Incident Type 2 Diabetes in A Chinese Population.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to simultaneously examine the associations of both essential and non-essential amino acids with both prevalent and incident type 2 diabetes in a Chinese population. A case-control study was nested within the Singapore Chinese Health Study. Participants included 144 cases with prevalent and 160 cases with incident type 2 diabetes and 304 controls. Cases and controls were individually matched on age, sex, and date of blood collection. Baseline serum levels of 9 essential and 10 non-essential amino acids were measured using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. We identified that five essential (isoleucine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, and valine) and five non-essential (alanine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, and tyrosine) amino acids were associated with the prevalence of type 2 diabetes; four essential (isoleucine, leucine, tryptophan, and valine) and two non-essential (glutamine and tyrosine) amino acids were associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes. Of these, valine and tyrosine independently led to a significant improvement in risk prediction of incident type 2 diabetes. This study demonstrates that both essential and non-essential amino acids were associated with the risk for prevalent and incident type 2 diabetes, and the findings could aid in diabetes risk assessment in this Chinese population.

Project description:BackgroundObesity is a well-known risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Studies have shown that the Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), a novel visceral adiposity indicator, is positive associated with the risk of T2DM in the Chinese population. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between CVAI and incident T2DM in a Japanese population.MethodsWe performed a secondary analysis of open-access data from a retrospective cohort study. This study included 15,464 participants who received regular medical examinations at Murakami Memorial Hospital. All participants underwent a questionnaire survey, physical examination, and blood biochemical testing at baseline. The main outcome was new-onset T2DM during follow-up. Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to analyze the risk of CVAI on T2DM, and we conducted smooth curve fitting. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to assess the predictive value of CVAI, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) for incident T2DM.ResultsDuring a median follow-up time of 5.39 years, 373 new-onset T2DM events were observed. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the incidence of T2DM increased as the CVAI increased (log-rank χ 2 = 187.1076 and 129.6067 in males and females, respectively, both P <0.001). After adjustment for covariates, per 1 increase of CVAI was associated with a 1.0133-fold and 1.0246-fold higher risk of incident T2DM in males and females, respectively (both P <0.001). Those individuals in the top CVAI quartile group had the highest risk of new-onset T2DM (HR = 3.1568 and 5.8415 in males and females, respectively, both P <0.05). A nonlinear relationship was identified by the smooth fitting curve between CVAI and T2DM events in both genders. ROC analysis indicated that CVAI had better predictive power than BMI and WC in both genders.ConclusionOur results demonstrate that CVAI was significantly associated with an increased risk of new-onset T2DM in Japanese adults.
