Associations of Serum Adipokines With Subclinical Interstitial Lung Disease Among Community-Dwelling Adults: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA).

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Adipokines have inflammatory and fibrotic properties that may be critical in interstitial lung disease (ILD). We examined associations of serum adipokine levels with CT imaging-based measures of subclinical ILD and lung function among community-dwelling adults. METHODS:A subset of the original Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis cohort (n = 1,968) had adiponectin, leptin, and resistin measured during follow-up visits (2002-2005). We used regression models to examine associations of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin levels with (1) high-attenuation areas (HAAs) from CT scans (2004-2005, n = 1,144), (2) interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) from CT scans (2010-2012, n = 872), and (3) FVC from spirometry (2004-2006, n = 1,446). We used -(1/HAA2), which we denoted with H, to model HAA as our outcome to meet model assumptions. RESULTS:Higher adiponectin was associated with lower HAA on CT imaging among adults with a BMI ? 25 kg/m2 (P for BMI interaction = .07). Leptin was more strongly associated with ILA among never smokers compared with ever smokers (P for smoking interaction = .004). For every 1-SD increment of log-transformed leptin, the percent predicted FVC was 3.8% lower (95% CI, -5.0 to -2.5). Higher serum resistin levels were associated with greater HAA on CT in a fully adjusted model. For every 1-SD increment of log-transformed resistin there was an increase in H of 14.8 (95% CI, 3.4-26.3). CONCLUSIONS:Higher adiponectin levels were associated with lower HAA on CT imaging among adults with a higher BMI. Higher leptin and resistin levels were associated with lower FVC and greater HAA, respectively.

Project description:RationaleObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been postulated to contribute to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis by promoting alveolar epithelial injury via tractional forces and intermittent hypoxia.ObjectivesTo determine whether OSA is associated with subclinical interstitial lung disease (ILD) and with biomarkers of alveolar epithelial injury and remodeling.MethodsWe performed cross-sectional analyses of 1,690 community-dwelling adults who underwent 15-channel in-home polysomnography and thoracic computed tomographic imaging in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. We measured the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index (oAHI) by polysomnography and high-attenuation areas (HAAs) and interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) by computed tomography. Serum matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) and surfactant protein-A (SP-A) were measured by ELISA in 99 participants. We used generalized linear models to adjust for potential confounders.ResultsThe mean age was 68 years, and the mean forced vital capacity was 97% predicted. The median oAHI was 8.4 events/h, and 32% had an oAHI greater than 15. After adjusting for demographics, smoking, and center, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with a 4.0% HAA increment (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-6.8%; P = 0.003) and 35% increased odds of ILA (95% CI, 13-61%; P = 0.001). However, there was evidence that these associations varied by body mass index (BMI) (P for interaction = 0.08 and 0.04, respectively). Among those with a BMI less than 25 kg/m2, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with a 6.1% HAA increment (95% CI, 0.5-12%; P = 0.03) and 2.3-fold increased odds of ILA (95% CI, 1.3-4.1; P = 0.005). Among those with a BMI greater than 30 kg/m2, an oAHI greater than 15 was associated with 1.8-fold greater odds of ILA (95% CI, 1.1-2.9; P = 0.01) but was not associated with HAA. There were no meaningful associations detected among those with a BMI of 25-30 kg/m2. Greater oAHI was associated higher serum SP-A and MMP-7 levels, particularly among those with a BMI less than 25 kg/m2.ConclusionsModerate to severe OSA is associated with subclinical ILD and with evidence of alveolar epithelial injury and extracellular matrix remodeling in community-dwelling adults, an association that is strongest among normal-weight individuals. These findings support the hypothesis that OSA might contribute to early ILD.

Project description:BackgroundActivated vitamin D has anti-inflammatory properties. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] deficiency might contribute to subclinical interstitial lung disease (ILD).ObjectiveWe examined associations between serum 25(OH)D concentrations and subclinical ILD among middle-aged to older adults who were free of cardiovascular disease at baseline.MethodsWe studied 6302 Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) participants who had baseline serum 25(OH)D concentrations and computed tomography (CT) imaging spanning ≤ 10 y. Baseline cardiac CT scans (2000-2002) included partial lung fields. Some participants had follow-up cardiac CT scans at exams 2-5 and a full-lung CT scan at exam 5 (2010-2012), with a mean ± SD of 2.1 ± 1.0 scans. Subclinical ILD was defined quantitatively as high-attenuation areas (HAAs) between -600 and -250 Hounsfield units. We assessed associations of 25(OH)D with adjusted HAA volumes and HAA progression. We also examined associations between baseline 25(OH)D and the presence of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) assessed qualitatively (yes or no) from full-lung CT scans at exam 5. Models were adjusted for sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle factors (including smoking), and lung volumes.ResultsThe cohort's mean ± SD characteristics were 62.2 ± 10 y for age, 25.8 ± 10.9 ng/mL for 25(OH)D concentrations, and 28.3 ± 5.4 for body mass index (kg/m2); 53% were women, with 39% white, 27% black, 22% Hispanic, and 12% Chinese race/ethnicities. Thirty-three percent had replete (≥30 ng/mL), 35% intermediate (20 to <30 ng/mL), and 32% deficient (<20 ng/mL) 25(OH)D concentrations. Compared with those with replete concentrations, participants with 25(OH)D deficiency had greater adjusted HAA volume at baseline (2.7 cm3; 95% CI: 0.9, 4.5 cm3) and increased progression over a median of 4.3 y of follow-up (2.7 cm3; 95% CI: 0.9, 4.4 cm3) (P < 0.05). 25(OH)D deficiency was also associated with increased prevalence of ILAs 10 y later (OR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.1, 2.2).ConclusionsVitamin D deficiency is independently associated with subclinical ILD and its progression, based on both increased HAAs and ILAs, in a community-based population. Further studies are needed to examine whether vitamin D repletion can prevent ILD or slow its progression. The MESA cohort design is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00005487.
