Oxidised Met147 of human serum albumin is a biomarker of oxidative stress, reflecting glycaemic fluctuations and hypoglycaemia in diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress has been linked to a number of chronic diseases, and this has aroused interest in the identification of clinical biomarkers that can accurately assess its severity. We used liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to show that oxidised and non-oxidised Met residues at position 147 of human serum albumin (Met147) can be accurately and reproducibly quantified with stable isotope-labelled peptides. Met147 oxidation was significantly higher in patients with diabetes than in controls. Least square multivariate analysis revealed that glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and glycated albumin (GA) did not significantly influence Met147 oxidation, but the GA/HbA1c ratio, which reflects glycaemic excursions, independently affected Met147 oxidation status. Continuous glucose monitoring revealed that Met147 oxidation strongly correlates with the standard deviation of sensor glucose concentrations and the time spent with hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia each day. Thus, glycaemic variability and hypoglycaemia in diabetes may be associated with greater oxidation of Met147. Renal function, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and serum bilirubin were also associated with the oxidation status of Met147. In conclusion, the quantification of oxidised and non-oxidised Met147 in serum albumin using our LC-MS methodology could be used to assess the degree of intravascular oxidative stress induced by hypoglycaemia and glycaemic fluctuations in diabetes.

Project description:AimsTo examine maternal fear of hypoglycaemia, glycaemia and pregnancy outcomes in women with impaired and normal awareness of hypoglycaemia.MethodsA pre-planned sub-study of 214 pregnant women with type 1 diabetes who participated in the CONCEPTT trial. Participants completed hypoglycaemia fear surveys (HFS-II) at baseline. Logistic regression and Poisson regression analyses were used to obtain an adjusted estimate for the rate ratio relating awareness to the number of severe hypoglycaemic episodes, and for several neonatal outcomes in relation to the total HFS-II score. The role of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use was examined.ResultsOverall, 30% of participants reported impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia (n = 64). Women with impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia had more episodes of severe hypoglycaemia (mean 0.44 vs. 0.08, p < 0.001) (12-34 weeks gestation) and scored higher on the HFS-II scale (43.7 vs. 36.0, p 0.008), indicating more fear of hypoglycaemia. They spent more time below range (CGM <3.5 mmol/L) and exhibited more glycaemic variability at 12 weeks gestation. Higher overall HFS-II scores were associated with a higher risk of maternal severe hypoglycaemia episodes (Rate Ratio 1.78, 95% CI 1.39-2.27). Women with impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia had less maternal weight gain but there were no differences in neonatal outcomes between women with impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia and normal hypoglycaemia awareness. Higher HFS-II scores were associated with more nephropathy (Odds Ratio 1.91, 95% CI 1.06-3.4). CGM use after 12 weeks was not associated with the number of episodes of severe hypoglycaemia (RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.49-1.15; p = 0.18).ConclusionsIn pregnant women with type 1 diabetes, impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia is associated with more maternal severe hypoglycaemia episodes and more fear of hypoglycaemia. Having impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia and/or fear of hypoglycaemia should alert clinicians to this increased risk. Reassuringly, there was no increase in adverse neonatal outcomes.
