Putative functional non-coding polymorphisms in SELP significantly modulate sP-selectin levels, arterial stiffness and type 2 diabetes mellitus susceptibility.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:P-selectin, encoded by SELP, has been implicated as an important molecule in the development of arterial stiffness, consequently leading to vascular complications in T2DM. SELP polymorphisms and increased levels of soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) have been shown to be associated with several inflammatory diseases. The present work was designed to assess nine putative functional non-coding SELP variants in relation to sP-selectin levels and arterial stiffness in T2DM. METHODS:The genetic distribution of rs3917655, rs3917657, rs3917739, rs2235302, rs3917843 was determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (RFLP-PCR). Genotyping of rs3917779 was performed by tetra primer amplification-refractory mutation system (ARMS)- PCR. Three SNPs i.e. rs3917853, rs3917854, rs3917855 were genotyped by Sanger sequencing. Construction of haplotypes was performed using PHASE software. The data thus obtained was analyzed by appropriate statistical tools. RESULTS:Two non-coding variants i.e. rs3917657 and rs3917854 of SELP were found to be associated with 2 and 1.7 -fold risk of disease development respectively. However, one non-coding variant rs2235302 was found to provide protection against disease development. Furthermore, variant allele of rs3917854 in T2DM patients was found to be associated with 2.07-fold very high vascular risk. Non-coding haplotype GCAGGCCGC was conferring 4.14-fold risk of disease development. Furthermore, overall sP-selectin levels were higher in T2DM patients when segregated according to genotypes as well as haplotypes. Significant genotype- phenotype correlation was observed for rs3917655 as well as rs3917739 variant in patients and for rs3917854 in controls. In vascular risk categories, a significant genotype- phenotype correlation was observed for rs3917655 and rs2235302. Furthermore, patients with CCGGGCCGC haplotype in high risk category were observed with higher levels of sP-selectin as compared to other haplotypes (p?

Project description:In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) arterial stiffness is associated with increased cardiovascular and total mortality. Little is known about determinants of arterial stiffness in clinical routine. Identification of potential determinants of arterial stiffness will help to address treatment targets for patients in the early state of T2DM. This is a cross-sectional analysis of arterial stiffness in 266 patients in the early stage of T2DM who did not have cardiovascular or renal complications. Parameters of arterial stiffness such as central systolic blood pressure (cSBP), central pulse pressure (cPP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were measured with the SphygmoCor System (AtCor Medical). We investigated the influence of parameters of glucose metabolism, lipid status, body constitution, blood pressure (BP) and inflammation on the stiffness parameters using multivariate regression analysis. The study cohort consisted of male and female patients aged 61 ± 8 years with mean diabetes duration of 6.4 ± 5.1 years, mean HbA1c 7.1 ± 0.9%, mean cSBP 121 ± 12 mmHg, mean cPP 44 ± 10 mmHg and mean PWV 8.9 ± 1.8 m/s. Multiple regression analysis identified waist circumference (WC) (beta = 0.411, p = 0.026), LDL-cholesterol (beta = 0.106, p = 0.006), systolic office BP (beta = 0.936, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.233, p = 0.043) as potential determinants of cSBP. cPP was determined by sex (beta = 0.330, p = 0.008), age (beta = 0.383, p < 0.001), systolic office BP (beta = 0.370, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.231, p = 0.028) whereas for PWV the following determinants could be identified: age (beta = 0.405, p < 0.001), systolic office BP (beta = 0.421, p < 0.001) and diabetes duration (beta = 0.073, p = 0.038). In addition to the known parameters age, sex and systolic office BP serum LDL-cholesterol, WC and diabetes duration have been identified as determinants of arterial stiffness in patients with T2DM. Treatment of patients in the early stage of T2DM should focus on these clinical parameters to prevent progression of arterial stiffness and as a consequence reduce cardiovascular mortality.Trial registration: The patients included in the analysis participated in one of the following clinical trials NCT02752113 (registered 26.4.2016), NCT02383238 (09.03.2015), NCT02471963 (15.06.2015), NCT01319357 (21.03.2011) ( http://www.clinicaltrials.gov ).

Project description:ObjectivesThis study sought to assess sex differences in ventricular-arterial interactions.BackgroundHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction is more prevalent in women than in men, but the basis for this difference remains unclear.MethodsEchocardiography and arterial tonometry were performed to quantify arterial and ventricular stiffening and interaction in 461 participants without heart failure (189 men, age 67 ± 9 years; 272 women, age 65 ± 10 years). Aortic characteristic impedance (Z(c)), total arterial compliance (pulsatile load), and systemic vascular resistance index (steady load) were compared between men and women, and sex-specific multivariable regression analyses were performed to assess associations of these arterial parameters with diastolic dysfunction and ventricular-arterial coupling (effective arterial elastance/left ventricular end-systolic elastance [Ea/Ees]) after adjustment for potential confounders.ResultsZ(c) was higher and total arterial compliance was lower in women, whereas systemic vascular resistance index was similar between sexes. In women but not men, higher log Z(c) was associated with mitral inflow E/A ratio (β ± SE: -0.17 ± 0.07), diastolic dysfunction (odds ratio: 7.8; 95% confidence interval: 2.0 to 30.2) and Ea/Ees (β ± SE: 0.13 ± 0.04) (p ≤ 0.01 for all). Similarly, total arterial compliance was associated with E/A ratio (β ± SE: 0.12 ± 0.04), diastolic dysfunction (odds ratio: 0.33; 95% confidence interval: 0.12 to 0.89), and Ea/Ees (β ± SE: -0.09 ± 0.03) in women only (p ≤ 0.03 for all). Systemic vascular resistance index was not associated with diastolic dysfunction or Ea/Ees.ConclusionsProximal aortic stiffness (Z(c)) is greater in women than men, and women may be more susceptible to the deleterious effects of greater pulsatile and early arterial load on diastolic function and ventricular-arterial interaction. This may contribute to the greater risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in women.

Project description:IntroductionBrachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), an indicator of arterial stiffness, has been demonstrated to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its vascular complications. This study was aimed at investigating the correlations of baPWV with both the presence and severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR) at baseline and at exploring the predictive role of baPWV in the new onset/progression of DR in the follow-up analysis.MethodsThe prospective cohort study recruited 2,473 Chinese patients with T2DM, of whom 663 participants were finally included in the follow-up analysis. The presence and grading of DR were performed by the modified Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study. Uni- or multivariate linear and logistic regression models and Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis were conducted.ResultsOf 2,473 patients with T2DM at baseline, 734 individuals were assessed to have DR and further categorized into 630 with non-sight-threatening DR (NSTDR) and 104 with STDR. In addition to the positive relationship between increased baPWV and the presence of DR, multinominal logistic regression analysis revealed that higher tertiles of baPWV were significantly related to the NSTDR (T2: OR = 1.62 (1.22, 2.15), p < 0.001, and T3: OR = 2.58 (1.86, 3.58), p < 0.001) and STDR group (T3: OR = 3.87 (1.87, 8.02), p < 0.001). During a follow-up (mean period of 16.4 months), 111 participants had new onset/progression of DR. The cox regressions showed that high baseline baPWV was correlated with increased risk of development/progression of DR (HR = 2.24, 95% CI (1.24, 4.03), p = 0.007, for T2 baPWV and HR = 2.90, 95% CI (1.49, 5.64), p = 0.002, for T3 baPWV) after adjustments for multiple factors.ConclusionsOur results demonstrated that baseline baPWV might be an independent predictor in new onset/worsening of DR, suggesting that increased arterial stiffness might be involved in the development of DR. Follow-up studies with a longer duration are needed.
