Exocytosis Protein DOC2B as a Biomarker of Type 1 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Context:Efforts to preserve β-cell mass in the preclinical stages of type 1 diabetes (T1D) are limited by few blood-derived biomarkers of β-cell destruction. Objective:Platelets are proposed sources of blood-derived biomarkers for a variety of diseases, and they show distinct proteomic changes in T1D. Thus, we investigated changes in the exocytosis protein, double C2 domain protein-β (DOC2B) in platelets and islets from T1D humans, and prediabetic nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice. Design, Patients, and Main Outcome Measure:Protein levels of DOC2B were assessed in platelets and islets from prediabetic NOD mice and humans, with and without T1D. Seventeen new-onset T1D human subjects (10.3 ± 3.8 years) were recruited immediately following diagnosis, and platelet DOC2B levels were compared with 14 matched nondiabetic subjects (11.4 ± 2.9 years). Furthermore, DOC2B levels were assessed in T1D human pancreatic tissue samples, cytokine-stimulated human islets ex vivo, and platelets from T1D subjects before and after islet transplantation. Results:DOC2B protein abundance was substantially reduced in prediabetic NOD mouse platelets, and these changes were mirrored in the pancreatic islets from the same mice. Likewise, human DOC2B levels were reduced over twofold in platelets from new-onset T1D human subjects, and this reduction was mirrored in T1D human islets. Cytokine stimulation of normal islets reduced DOC2B expression ex vivo. Remarkably, platelet DOC2B levels increased after islet transplantation in patients with T1D. Conclusions:Reduction of DOC2B is an early feature of T1D, and DOC2B abundance may serve as a valuable in vivo indicator of β-cell mass and an early biomarker of T1D.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate serum intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) in two groups of patients with different duration of hyperglycemia in a cross-sectional study.Materials and methodsIn the present study, a total of 280 individuals (158 outpatients and 122 inpatients) suffering from hyperglycemia were recruited between May and September 2019. The clinical information of all participants was collected from the hospital information system, including the duration of hyperglycemia, age, gender, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), 75-g oral glucose tolerance test including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour plasma glucose (2hPG), fasting C-peptide (FC-pep), 2-hour C-peptide (2hC-pep), fasting insulin (FIns), and 2-hour insulin (2hIns). In addition, the morbidity of diabetic complications (retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy) in the inpatient group was determined. Furthermore, the difference between 2hPG and FPG (ΔPG), the difference between 2hC-pep and FC-pep (ΔC-pep), and the difference between 2hIns and FIns (ΔIns) were calculated. The level of serum I-FABP, a biomarker of intestinal barrier (IB) dysfunction, was estimated by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsFor the outpatient group, the median duration of hyperglycemia was less than a year; the serum I-FABP level was positively correlated with age (R = 0.299, P < 0.001). For the inpatient group, the median duration of hyperglycemia was ten years; correlation analysis showed that the serum I-FABP level was positively associated with age and ΔPG (R = 0.286, P = 0.001; R = 0.250, P = 0.006, respectively) while negatively associated with FC-pep and 2hC-pep (R = - 0.304, P = 0.001; R = - 0.241, P = 0.008, respectively); multiple linear regression analysis showed that the serum I-FABP level was positively associated with the duration of hyperglycemia (β = 0.362, P < 0.001); moreover, patients with retinopathy had a significantly higher I-FABP level than those without retinopathy (P = 0.001).ConclusionsIn the outpatients whose duration of hyperglycemia was less than a year, the serum I-FABP level was positively associated with age. In the inpatients with different courses of diabetes, the serum I-FABP level was positively associated with the duration of hyperglycemia and glycemic variability but negatively associated with islet beta-cell function; moreover, the serum I-FABP level was higher in patients with retinopathy than in those without retinopathy, suggesting that the IB dysfunction got worse with the progression of diabetes.

Project description:AIMS/HYPOTHESIS:We aimed to identify a sparse panel of biomarkers for improving the prediction of renal disease progression in type 1 diabetes. METHODS:We considered 859 individuals recruited from the Scottish Diabetes Research Network Type 1 Bioresource (SDRNT1BIO) and 315 individuals from the Finnish Diabetic Nephropathy (FinnDiane) study. All had an entry eGFR between 30 and 75 ml min-1[1.73 m]-2, with those from FinnDiane being oversampled for albuminuria. A total of 297 circulating biomarkers (30 proteins, 121 metabolites, 146 tryptic peptides) were measured in non-fasting serum samples using the Luminex platform and LC electrospray tandem MS (LC-MS/MS). We investigated associations with final eGFR adjusted for baseline eGFR and with rapid progression (a loss of more than 3 ml min-1[1.73 m]-2 year-1) using linear and logistic regression models. Panels of biomarkers were identified using a penalised Bayesian approach, and their performance was evaluated through 10-fold cross-validation and compared with using clinical record data alone. RESULTS:For final eGFR, 16 proteins and 30 metabolites or tryptic peptides showed significant association in SDRNT1BIO, and nine proteins and five metabolites or tryptic peptides in FinnDiane, beyond age, sex, diabetes duration, study day eGFR and length of follow-up (all at p?<?10-4). The strongest associations were with CD27 antigen (CD27), kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1) and ?1-microglobulin. Including the Luminex biomarkers on top of baseline covariates increased the r2 for prediction of final eGFR from 0.47 to 0.58 in SDRNT1BIO and from 0.33 to 0.48 in FinnDiane. At least 75% of the increment in r2 was attributable to CD27 and KIM-1. However, using the weighted average of historical eGFR gave similar performance to biomarkers. The LC-MS/MS platform performed less well. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION:Among a large set of associated biomarkers, a sparse panel of just CD27 and KIM-1 contains most of the predictive information for eGFR progression. The increment in prediction beyond clinical data was modest but potentially useful for oversampling individuals with rapid disease progression into clinical trials, especially where there is little information on prior eGFR trajectories.
