Assessment of circulating insulin using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry during insulin glargine treatment in type 2 diabetes: Implications for estimating insulin sensitivity and β-cell function. Diabetes Obes Metab 2023; 25:1995-2004. [PMID: 36999229 PMCID: PMC10239335 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/01/2023]
Abstract
AIM To determine the potential impact of the cross-reactivity of insulin glargine U-100 and its metabolites on insulin sensitivity and β-cell measures in people with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), we measured concentrations of endogenous insulin, glargine and its two metabolites (M1 and M2) in fasting and oral glucose tolerance test-stimulated plasma from 19 participants and fasting specimens from another 97 participants 12 months after randomization to receive the insulin glargine. The last dose of glargine was administered before 10:00 PM the night before testing. Insulin was also measured on these specimens using an immunoassay. We used fasting specimens to calculate insulin sensitivity (Homeostatic Model Assessment 2 [HOMA2]-S%; QUICKI index; PREDIM index) and β-cell function (HOMA2-B%). Using specimens following glucose ingestion, we calculated insulin sensitivity (Matsuda ISI[comp] index) and β-cell response (insulinogenic index [IGI], and total incremental insulin response [iAUC] insulin/glucose). RESULTS In plasma, glargine was metabolized to form the M1 and M2 metabolites that were quantifiable by LC-MS; however, the analogue and its metabolites cross-reacted by less than 100% in the insulin immunoassay. This incomplete cross-reactivity resulted in a systematic bias of fasting-based measures. By contrast, because M1 and M2 did not change following glucose ingestion, a bias was not observed for IGI and iAUC insulin/glucose. CONCLUSIONS Despite glargine metabolites being detected in the insulin immunoassay, dynamic insulin responses can be used to assess β-cell responsiveness. However, given the cross-reactivity of the glargine metabolites in the insulin immunoassay, fasting-based measures of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function are biased.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic risk factors at a young age pose a significant risk for developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Atherogenic dyslipidemia is highly associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome already in young age. It remains unclear whether cardiometabolic risk factors associate with the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP = log (TAG/HDL-C) in lean subjects with low atherogenic risk. As both the AIP and markers of cardiometabolic risk are continuous variables, we expected their association to be linear before the manifestation of obesity and atherogenic dyslipidemia. We analyzed the prevalence of increased atherogenic risk (AIP ≥ 0.11) in 2012 lean 14-to-20-year-old subjects (55% females) and the trends of cardiometabolic risk factors across the quartiles (Q) of AIP in a subgroup of 1947 (56% females) subjects with low atherogenic risk (AIP < 0.11). The prevalence of AIP ≥ 0.11 reached 3.6% in females and 8.5% in males. HDL-C, non-HDL-C, triglycerides, and the continuous metabolic syndrome score showed a stepwise worsening across the AIP quartiles in both sexes. Measures of obesity and insulin resistance were worse in Q4 vs. Q1 groups, and leukocyte counts were higher in Q4 and Q3 vs. Q1. Females in Q4 presented with a higher C-reactive protein and lower adiponectin, estradiol, and testosterone levels. The multivariate regression model selected non-HDL-C, QUICKI, and erythrocyte counts as significant predictors of AIP in males; and non-HDL-C and C-reactive protein in females. A question arises whether the lean individuals on the upper edge of low atherogenic risk are prone to earlier manifestation of metabolic syndrome and shift to the higher AIP risk group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Comparison of cardiovascular risk factors, atherosclerosis, and psychological distress among adults with refractory versus well-controlled epilepsy. METHODS The cross-sectional study consisted of two groups of 40 people each: Group I - People with well-controlled epilepsy, Group II - People with refractory epilepsy. Age- and gender-matched people of 20-50 years were recruited. People who were diabetic, smokers, hypertensive, alcoholic, pregnant, with infections, and lactating women were excluded from the study. Biochemical parameters, fasting glucose, lipid profile, fasting insulin, leptin, adiponectin, Lp[a], hsCRP, TyG INDEX, HOMA1-%S, HOMA1-IR, HOMA1-%B, QUICKI, FIRI, AIP, AC, CLTI, MLTI, CRI-I, CRI-II, and CIMT were estimated. Stress levels [PSS-10, GAD-7 & PHQ-9] were assessed based on the scoring system from the questionnaires. RESULTS The existence of metabolic syndrome, levels of triglycerides, TyG index, MDA, OSI, CIMT, AIP, and stress scores [PSS-10, GAD-7 & PHQ-9] were significantly higher in the refractory-epilepsy group in comparison to the well-controlled group. There were associations between LDL -C and CIMT as well as between GAD-7 and CIMT among all the study subjects. There were no significant differences in the levels of glucose homeostasis parameters, hsCRP, leptin, adiponectin, and Lp[a] between the two groups. Based on the ROC analysis, MDA [AUC = 0.853] and GAD-7 [AUC = 0.900] are useful in the differential diagnosis of the study groups. CONCLUSION People with refractory epilepsy had increased levels of vascular risk factors, atherosclerosis, and stress levels compared to people with well-controlled epilepsy. Suitable disease management and therapeutic approaches to address cardiovascular and psychological distress could be planned out among people with refractory epilepsy to improve their quality of life.

Abstract
Obesity in adolescents has reached epidemic proportions and is associated with the inflammatory response and viral infections. The aim of this study was to understand the profile of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines associated with the inflammatory response and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in obese adolescents with positive serology for adenovirus 36 (ADV36). Thirty-six overweight, 36 obese, and 25 severe obesity adolescents aged 10 to 16 years were included in the study. The following variables were analyzed: sex, age, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, total cholesterol and fractions, triglycerides, glucose, serum cytokine concentrations, and ADV36 antibodies. Cytokines and chemokines were quantified by cytometry and ADV36 serology was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed higher levels of the cytokines interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10 and of the chemokine interferon-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) in severe obesity adolescents compared to the obese and overweight groups, as well as in the group with MetS compared to the group without this syndrome. The frequency of ADV36-positive individuals did not differ between groups. The findings revealed differences in BMI between the obese and severe obesity groups versus the overweight group in the presence of positivity for ADV36, suggesting an association with weight gain and possibly MetS installation.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive kidney damage with an increasing prevalence. Some evidence suggests that propolis as a novel antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory agent may have beneficial effects in CKD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of propolis on some kidney function parameters, pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB), glycemic status, quality of life, and blood pressure (BP) in patients with CKD. In this study, 44 patients with CKD were randomly assigned to receive propolis capsules at a dose of 250 mg daily or placebo for three months. Of 44 randomized individuals, 35 completed the trial. At the end of the intervention (end of month three), improvement in some dimensions of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) (derived from Kidney Disease and Quality of Life Short-Form (KDQOL-[Formula: see text], v. 1.3) questionnaire) were significantly higher in the propolis group than the placebo group, even after adjustment for baseline values, present of diabetes, and age (P < 0.05). Like systolic and diastolic BP, changes in serum creatinine, 24-h urine volume and protein, fasting blood sugar (FBS), hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), insulin, homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI), and PAB did not differ significantly between the two groups (P > 0.05). No serious adverse events were reported throughout the study. Propolis supplementation may improve the HRQoL of CKD patients. More studies are needed to validate the adjunct use of propolis for metabolic control of CKD patients.

Sex-specific responses in glucose-insulin homeostasis and lipoprotein-lipid components after high-dose supplementation with marine n-3 PUFAs in abdominal obesity: a randomized double-blind crossover study. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1020678. [PMID: 37404855 PMCID: PMC10315503 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1020678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Clinical studies on effects of marine-derived omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), mainly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and the plant-derived omega-6 (n-6) PUFA linoleic acid (LA) on lipoprotein-lipid components and glucose-insulin homeostasis have shown conflicting results, which may partly be explained by differential responses in females and males. However, we have lacked data on sexual dimorphism in the response of cardiometabolic risk markers following increased consumption of n-3 or n-6 PUFAs. Objective To explore sex-specific responses after n-3 (EPA + DHA) or n-6 (LA) PUFA supplementation on circulating lipoprotein subfractions, standard lipids, apolipoproteins, fatty acids in red blood cell membranes, and markers of glycemic control/insulin sensitivity among people with abdominal obesity. Methods This was a randomized double-blind crossover study with two 7-week intervention periods separated by a 9-week washout phase. Females (n = 16) were supplemented with 3 g/d of EPA + DHA (fish oil) or 15 g/d of LA (safflower oil), while males (n = 23) received a dose of 4 g/d of EPA + DHA or 20 g/d of LA. In fasting blood samples, we measured lipoprotein particle subclasses, standard lipids, apolipoproteins, fatty acid profiles, and markers of glycemic control/insulin sensitivity. Results The between-sex difference in relative change scores was significant after n-3 for total high-density lipoproteins (females/males: -11%*/-3.3%, p = 0.036; *: significant within-sex change), high-density lipoprotein particle size (+2.1%*/-0.1%, p = 0.045), and arachidonic acid (-8.3%*/-12%*, p = 0.012), and after n-6 for total (+37%*/+2.1%, p = 0.041) and small very-low-density lipoproteins (+97%*/+14%, p = 0.021), and lipoprotein (a) (-16%*/+0.1%, p = 0.028). Circulating markers of glucose-insulin homeostasis differed significantly after n-3 for glucose (females/males: -2.1%/+3.9%*, p = 0.029), insulin (-31%*/+16%, p < 0.001), insulin C-peptide (-12%*/+13%*, p = 0.001), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index 2 (-12%*/+14%*, p = 0.001) and insulin sensitivity index 2 (+14%*/-12%*, p = 0.001), and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (+4.9%*/-3.4%*, p < 0.001). Conclusion We found sex-specific responses after high-dose n-3 (but not n-6) supplementation in circulating markers of glycemic control/insulin sensitivity, which improved in females but worsened in males. This may partly be related to the sex differences we observed in several components of the lipoprotein-lipid profile following the n-3 intervention.

Abstract
Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) cause morphofunctional alterations in pancreatic islet alpha and beta cells. Therefore, we hypothesize that the new GLP-1/Glucagon receptor dual agonist cotadutide may benefit islet cell arrangement and function. Twelve-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were fed a control diet (C, 10 % kJ fat) or a high-fat diet (HF, 50 % kJ fat) for ten weeks. Then, the animals were divided into four groups for an additional 30 days and daily treated with subcutaneous cotadutide (30 nmol/kg) or vehicle: C, CC (control+cotadutide), HF, and HFC (high-fat+cotadutide). Cotadutide led to weight loss and reduced insulin resistance in the HFC group, increasing insulin receptor substrate 1 and solute carrier family 2 gene expressions in isolated islets. Also, cotadutide enhanced transcriptional factors related to islet cell transdifferentiation, decreasing aristaless-related homeobox and increasing the paired box 4 and 6, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1, v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene family protein A, neurogenin 3, and neurogenic differentiation 1. In addition, cotadutide improved the proliferating cell nuclear antigen, NK6 homeobox 1, B cell leukemia/lymphoma 2, but lessening caspase 3. Furthermore, cotadutide mitigated the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-responsive genes, reducing transcription factor 4, DNA-damage-inducible transcript 3, and growth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible 45. In conclusion, our data demonstrated significant beneficial actions of cotadutide in DIO mice, such as weight loss, glycemic control, and insulin resistance improvement. In addition, cotadutide counteracted the pathological adaptive cellular arrangement of the pancreatic islet in obese mice, improving the markers of the transdifferentiating pathway, proliferation, apoptosis, and ER stress.

Abstract
Background: Patients with plaque psoriasis have an increased risk of metabolic syndrome. However, no studies have assessed the nutritional status or screening methods of this population. Aims: This review aimed to identify and summarise metabolic syndrome screening criteria and the tools/methods used in nutrition assessment in patients with plaque psoriasis. Data synthesis: PubMed, Web of Science, Ovid and Scopus were searched from inception to March 2023, following the Arkensey and O'Malley framework, to identify articles that report nutritional assessment methods/tools and metabolic screening criteria. Twenty-one studies were identified. Overall, these studies used four different screening criteria to define metabolic syndrome. Patients with psoriasis had a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome and had a poor nutritional status compared to controls. However, only anthropometric measures such as weight, height and waist circumference were employed to determine the nutritional status. Only two studies assessed the vitamin D status. Conclusions: Patients with psoriasis have a poor nutritional status, and they are at risk of nutrient deficiencies. However, these health aspects are not routinely assessed and may increase the risk of malnutrition among these patients. Therefore, additional assessments, such as body composition and dietary assessment, are needed to determine the nutritional status to provide a suitable intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human health status can be measured on the basis of many different parameters. Statistical relationships among these different health parameters will enable several possible health care applications and an approximation of the current health status of individuals, which will allow for more personalized and preventive health care by informing the potential risks and developing personalized interventions. Furthermore, a better understanding of the modifiable risk factors related to lifestyle, diet, and physical activity will facilitate the design of optimal treatment approaches for individuals. OBJECTIVE This study aims to provide a high-dimensional, cross-sectional data set of comprehensive health care information to construct a combined statistical model as a single joint probability distribution and enable further studies on individual relationships among the multidimensional data obtained. METHODS In this cross-sectional observational study, data were collected from a population of 1000 adult men and women (aged ≥20 years) matching the age ratio of the typical adult Japanese population. Data include biochemical and metabolic profiles from blood, urine, saliva, and oral glucose tolerance tests; bacterial profiles from feces, facial skin, scalp skin, and saliva; messenger RNA, proteome, and metabolite analyses of facial and scalp skin surface lipids; lifestyle surveys and questionnaires; physical, motor, cognitive, and vascular function analyses; alopecia analysis; and comprehensive analyses of body odor components. Statistical analyses will be performed in 2 modes: one to train a joint probability distribution by combining a commercially available health care data set containing large amounts of relatively low-dimensional data with the cross-sectional data set described in this paper and another to individually investigate the relationships among the variables obtained in this study. RESULTS Recruitment for this study started in October 2021 and ended in February 2022, with a total of 997 participants enrolled. The collected data will be used to build a joint probability distribution called a Virtual Human Generative Model. Both the model and the collected data are expected to provide information on the relationships between various health statuses. CONCLUSIONS As different degrees of health status correlations are expected to differentially affect individual health status, this study will contribute to the development of empirically justified interventions based on the population.

Brar PC, Mehta S, Brar A, Pierce KA, Albano A, Bergman M. Value of 1-Hour Plasma Glucose During an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in a Multiethnic Cohort of Obese Children and Adolescents. Clin Med Insights Endocrinol Diabetes 2023; 16:11795514231177206. [PMID: 37323220 PMCID: PMC10262663 DOI: 10.1177/11795514231177206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
One hour plasma glucose (1-hr PG) concentration during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is steadily emerging as an independent predictor of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods We applied the current cut off thresholds reported in the pediatric literature for the 1-hr PG, 132.5 (7.4 mmol/l) and 155 mg/dL (8.6 mmol/l) during an OGTT, to report abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) using ROC curve analyses. We determined the empirical optimal cut point for 1-hr PG for our multi ethnic cohort using the Youden Index. Results About 1-hour and 2-hours plasma glucose showed the highest predictive potential based on Areas under the curve (AUC) values of 0.91 [CI: 0.85, 0.97] and 1 [CI: 1, 1], respectively. Further comparison of the ROC curves of the 1-hour and 2-hour PG measurements as predictors of an abnormal OGTT showed that their associated AUCs differed significantly (X2(1) = 9.25, P < .05). Using 132.5 mg/dL as the cutoff point for plasma glucose at 1-hour yielded a ROC curve with an AUC of 0.796, a sensitivity of 88%, and a specificity of 71.2%. Alternatively, the cutoff point of 155 mg/dL resulted in a ROC AUC of 0.852, a sensitivity of 80%, and a specificity of 90.4%. Conclusion Our cross-sectional study affirms that the 1-hr PG can identify obese children and adolescents at increased risk for prediabetes and/or T2D with almost the same accuracy as a 2-hr PG. In our multi-ethnic cohort, a 1-hr PG ⩾ 155 mg/dL (8.6 mmol/l) serves as an optimal cut-point, using the estimation of the Youden index with AUC of 0.86 and sensitivity of 80%.We support the petition to consider the 1-hr PG as integral during an OGTT, as this adds value to the interpretation of the OGTT beyond the fasting and 2-hr PG.

Maternal Preconception Glucose Homeostasis and Insulin Resistance Are Associated with Singleton and Twin Birthweight of Neonates Conceived by PCOS Women Undergoing IVF/ICSI Cycles.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can induce fertility and metabolism disorders, which may increase the prevalence of glucose metabolism disorders and cause health hazards to women and their offspring. We aim to evaluate the effect of maternal preconception glucose metabolism on neonatal birthweight in PCOS women undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles. We retrospectively analyzed 269 PCOS women who delivered 190 singletons and 79 twins via IVF/ICSI at a reproductive center. The effects of maternal preconception glucose metabolism indicators on singleton and twin birthweight were evaluated using generalized linear models and generalized estimate equations, respectively. The potential nonlinear associations were evaluated using generalized additive models. The analyses were further stratified by maternal preconception BMI and delivery mode to evaluate the possible interaction effects. Among PCOS women, maternal preconception fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) had significant negative associations with singleton birthweight (all p for trends = 0.04). We also found an overweight-specific association between elevated maternal preconception 2 h plasma insulin (2hPI) and twin birthweight (p for interactions = 0.05) and a caesarean-specific association between maternal preconception HbA1c and singleton birthweight (p for interactions = 0.02) in PCOS women. Maternal preconception glucose metabolism may affect neonatal birthweight, suggesting the importance of preconception glucose and insulin management for PCOS women. Further large prospective cohorts and animal studies are needed to confirm these findings and investigate the potential mechanisms.

Association of Inflammatory and Oxidative Status Markers with Metabolic Syndrome and Its Components in 40-to-45-Year-Old Females: A Cross-Sectional Study. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1221.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and sterile inflammation play roles in the induction and maintenance of metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study cohort included 170 females aged 40 to 45 years who were categorized according to the presentation of MetS components (e.g., central obesity, insulin resistance, atherogenic dyslipidemia, and elevated systolic blood pressure) as controls not presenting a single component (n = 43), those with pre-MetS displaying one to two components (n = 70), and females manifesting MetS, e.g., ≥3 components (n = 53). We analyzed the trends of seventeen oxidative and nine inflammatory status markers across three clinical categories. A multivariate regression of selected oxidative status and inflammatory markers on the components of MetS was performed. Markers of oxidative damage (malondialdehyde and advanced-glycation-end-products-associated fluorescence of plasma) were similar across the groups. Healthy controls displayed lower uricemia and higher bilirubinemia than females with MetS; and lower leukocyte counts, concentrations of C-reactive protein, interleukine-6, and higher levels of carotenoids/lipids and soluble receptors for advanced glycation end-products than those with pre-MetS and MetS. In multivariate regression models, levels of C-reactive protein, uric acid, and interleukine-6 were consistently associated with MetS components, although the impacts of single markers differed. Our data suggest that a proinflammatory imbalance precedes the manifestation of MetS, while an imbalance of oxidative status accompanies overt MetS. Further studies are needed to elucidate whether determining markers beyond traditional ones could help improve the prognosis of subjects at an early stage of MetS.

Dietary Chromium Picolinate Supplementation Improves Glucose Utilization in Transition Calf by Ameliorating Insulin Response. Biol Trace Elem Res 2023; 201:2795-2810.

Abstract
The decrease in insulin sensitivity during the transition of preruminant calves into ruminant animals is the common denominator. Meanwhile, this adaptation predisposes dairy calves towards various health issues and metabolic disorders that occur in later life. Chromium (Cr) has been shown to potentiate insulin functioning and is thereby helpful in reducing the risk of these metabolic disorders. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of Cr supplementation on the insulin sensitivity and health status in Hariana calves during their transition period. A total of 24 preruminant Hariana calves were randomly allocated into four groups (6 calves per group) for a period of 90 days. Calves either received a basal diet devoid of supplemental Cr (control; Cr0.0 group) or were supplemented with 0.05 mg (Cr0.05 group), 0.10 mg (Cr0.10 group), and 0.15 mg (Cr0.15 group) of Cr per kg BW0.75 as Cr-picolinate (Cr-Pic). To determine the effect of Cr supplementation on the insulin response, glucose-insulin-non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) kinetics was studied during the intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). A rapid glucose disappearance (p < 0.05) with unaltered insulin kinetics during IVGTT and OLTT indicates greater insulin sensitivity in calves supplemented with 0.10 and 0.15 mg of Cr per kg BW0.75. Improved insulin sensitivity in the Cr0.10 and Cr0.15 groups was further confirmed by higher (p < 0.05) values of the insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI), revised quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (RQUICKI), and lower (p < 0.05) values of the homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) during IVGTT. Mean serum non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAm), and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) levels were the highest (p < 0.05) and cortisol concentrations were the lowest (p < 0.05) in the Cr0.15 groups. Unlike IVGTT, there was no effect of treatment, period, and treatment × period interaction on mean serum glucose and insulin levels during OGTT. However, Cr-supplemented calves had a higher (p < 0.05) glucose clearance rate (gCR). Serum IRS-1 concentrations during OGTT were also higher (p < 0.05) in the Cr0.10 and Cr0.15 groups than in the other groups. Serum Cr levels increased dose dependently and were the highest (p < 0.05) in calves fed a diet supplemented with 0.15 mg Cr per kg BW0.75. There was no effect of treatment on average daily gain (ADG) and body condition score (BCS) while frequency and duration of diarrhea were lower and fecal score was better in Cr-supplemented calves. The current findings show that Cr supplementation improved glucose utilization and health status in calves during their transition period by improving insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
Pathophysiologically, type 2 diabetes can result from insulin resistance or insulin insufficiency alone. It is unclear whether relative insulin shortage or pronounced insulin resistance is linked to poor cardiometabolic problems like obesity. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between insulin resistance (IR), hypertension, and dyslipidaemia, in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus. One hundred and twenty-one (121) type 2 diabetic men participated in this cross-sectional study, which was conducted between September 2018 and September 2019. Sociodemographic information was collected using a self-designed questionnaire. Anthropometric data were also taken and blood samples collected for estimation of insulin, glucose, and lipid concentrations. HOMA-IR was calculated from the fasting insulin and glucose values, and a HOMA - IR ≥ 2 was considered to indicate insulin resistance. Of the 121 participants, 39.7% were classified as insulin-resistant. Levels of total cholesterol (4.82 ± 1.2 mmol/L; p = 0.007 vs. 4.25 ± 1.1 mmol/L), LDL cholesterol (3.17 ± 0.9 mmol/L; p = 0.001 vs. 2.52 ± 0.8 mmol/L), and TC/HDL-C ratio (3.93 ± 0.9; p = 0.042 vs. 3.58 ± 0.9) and the prevalence of abnormal LDL-C (14.6%; p = 0.015 vs. 2.7%) and elevated BP (83.3%; p = 0.048 vs. 67.1%) were higher in the insulin-resistant group. LDL cholesterol (AUC = 0.670; p = 0.001) better classified subjects as being insulin-resistant compared to other lipid markers. The odds of insulin resistance in dyslipidaemia were not statistically significant after adjusting for obesity. The link between insulin resistance and dyslipidaemia and hypertension in male diabetics may thus be mediated by obesity.

Abstract
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism where high phenylalanine (Phe) concentrations cause irreversible intellectual disability that can be prevented by newborn screening and early treatment. Evidence suggests that PKU subjects not adherent to treatment could be at risk of insulin resistance (IR). We studied how Phe concentrations (PheCs) relate to IR using machine learning (ML) and derived potential biomarkers. In our cross-sectional study, we analyzed subjects with neonatal diagnoses of PKU, grouped as follows: 10 subjects who adhered to treatment (G1); 14 subjects who suspended treatment (G2); and 24 control subjects (G3). We analyzed plasma biochemical variables, as well as profiles of amino acids and acylcarnitines in dried blood spots (DBSs). Higher PheCs and plasma insulin levels were observed in the G2 group compared to the other groups. Additionally, a positive correlation between the PheCs and homeostatic measurement assessments (HOMA-IRs) was found, as well as a negative correlation between the HOMA-Sensitivity (%) and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) scores. An ML model was then trained to predict abnormal HOMA-IRs using the panel of metabolites measured from DBSs. Notably, ranking the features' importance placed PheCs as the second most important feature after BMI for predicting abnormal HOMA-IRs. Our results indicate that low adherence to PKU treatment could affect insulin signaling, decrease glucose utilization, and lead to IR.

Abstract
Objective: Prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) among South Asian populations is relatively high. It increases with the obesity epidemic. Since determining IR is costly, triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein (TG/HDL) ratio has shown to be a good proxy marker for IR in adults. However, it is not yet well established in children. This study aimed to assess TG/HDL ratio as a marker of IR in 5-15-year-old children in Colombo District of Sri Lanka. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 309 school children 5-15 years of age, selected using two-stage probability-proportionate-to-size cluster sampling technique. Sociodemographic data, and anthropometric and biochemical parameters were obtained. After a 12-hr overnight fast, blood was taken for biochemical investigations. Results: Three hundred nine children (173 girls) were recruited. Mean age of girls was 9.9 years and boys 10.3 years. Based on body mass index (BMI) z-score, 15.3% were overweight and 6.1% were obese. Metabolic syndrome was present in 2.3% of children and IR based on Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) ≥2.5 in 7.5%. Mean TG/HDL ratio, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), BMI, waist-to-height-ratio (WHtR), and body fat percentage were significantly higher (P < 0.01) among children with IR compared with non-IR children. TG/HDL ratio significantly correlated with BMI, % fat mass, WC, HC, WHtR, and HOMA-IR. TG/HDL ratio is an independent risk factor in determining IR. The cutoff value of TG/HDL ratio ≥3 had higher specificity (89.8%) but lower sensitivity (47.8%) for detection of IR. TG/HDL ratio >1.5 had a higher sensitivity (82.6%) but lower specificity (47.7%). Conclusions: TG/HDL ratio is a good proxy marker of IR among 5-15-year-old children. A cutoff value of ≥1.5 had satisfactory sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Dietary diabetes risk reduction score (DDRRs) is inversely associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. Given the importance of the association between body fat and insulin resistance and the effect of diet on these parameters, this study aimed to investigate the association between DDRRS and body composition parameters, including the visceral adiposity index (VAI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), and skeletal muscle mass (SMM). This study was conducted on 291 overweight and obese women aged 18-48 years old recruited from 20 Tehran Health Centers in 2018. The anthropometric indices, biochemical parameters, and body composition were measured. A semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to calculate DDRRs. Linear regression analysis was used to examine the association between DDRRs and body composition indicators. The mean (SD) age of participants was 36.67 (9.10) years. After adjustment for potential confounders, VAI (β = 0.27, 95% CI = - 0.73, 1.27, Ptrend = 0.052), LAP (β = 8.14, 95% CI = - 10.54, 26.82, Ptrend = 0.069), TF (β = - 1.41, 95% CI = 11.45, 17.30, Ptrend = 0.027), trunk fat percent (TF%) (β = - 21.55, 95% CI = - 44.51, 1.61, Ptrend = 0.074), body fat mass (BFM) (β = - 3.26, 95% CI = - 6.08, - 0.44, Ptrend = 0.026), visceral fat area (VFA) (β = - 45.75, 95% CI = - 86.10, - 5.41, Ptrend = 0.026), waist-to-hip ratio (WHtR) (β = - 0.014, 95% CI = - 0.031, 0.004, Ptrend = 0.066), visceral fat level (VFL) (β = - 0.38, 95% CI = - 5.89, 5.12, Ptrend = 0.064), fat mass index (FMI) (β = - 1.15, 95% CI = - 2.28, - 0.02, Ptrend = 0.048) decreased significantly over tertiles of DDRRs, and also there was no significant association between SMM and DDRRs tertiles (β = - 0.57, 95% CI = - 1.69, 0.53, Ptrend = 0.322). The findings of this study demonstrated that participants with higher adherence to the DDRRs had lower VAI (β = 0.78 vs 0.27) and LAP (β = 20.73 vs 8.14). However, there was no significant association between DDRRs and VAI, LAP and SMM, which are mentioned as the primary outcomes. Future studies with larger sample of both genders are needed to investigate our findings.

Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2023:10.1007/s00228-023-03506-3.

Abstract
AIMS The purpose of this study is to investigate the regulation of adipose tissue insulin resistance with DPP-4 inhibitors in treatment-naive subjects with T2DM and to examine its relation to other diabetic parameters. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 147 subjects were treated with alogliptin 12.5-25 mg/day (n = 55), sitagliptin 25-50 mg/day (n = 49), or teneligliptin 10-20 mg/day (n = 43) monotherapy for 3 months. Changes in adipo-IR, a mathematical model used to evaluate adipose tissue insulin resistance, and various diabetic parameters were analyzed in this prospective, non-randomized observational study. RESULTS Among these three drugs, only alogliptin significantly reduced adipo-IR (-25.9%, p < 0.004) and some lipid parameters, such as LDL-C, T-C/HDL-C, log(TG)/HDL-C, non-HDL-C/HDL-C, and LDL-C/HDL-C. Subjects in the alogliptin group were divided into two groups with distinct changes in adipo-IR. Group A had a significant decrease in adipo-IR (-56.5%, p < 0.00001, n = 28), whereas group B had an insignificant increase (19.1%, p = 0.055, n = 27). Significant reductions in FBG or HbA1c were observed in groups A and B, respectively. Group A also showed significant reductions in HOMA-R, T-C/HDL-C, TG, log(TG)/HDL-C, non-HDL-C/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C, and FFA, as well as increases in QUICKI or HDL-C. In contrast, group B showed significant reductions in QUICKI or LDL-C, and increases in HOMA-R, insulin, HOMA-B, C-peptide, or CPR-index. CONCLUSIONS In contrast to other tested DPP-4 inhibitors, alogliptin demonstrated the ability to down-regulate insulin resistance in adipose tissue, as well as certain atherogenic lipids. This study provides the initial evidence of a DPP-4 inhibitor's potential to regulate adipose tissue insulin resistance. Furthermore, adipo-IR is associated with non-LDL-C lipid parameters instead of glycemic control in those receiving alogliptin.

[PMID: 36963840 PMCID: PMC10186244 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000207222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Diabetes mellitus (DM) contributes significantly to metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular events, and it may be a comorbidity of epilepsy. The objective of this study was to investigate whether long-term antiseizure medication (ASM) use is associated with the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. METHODS We analyzed data from the Chang Gung Research Database. Patients aged ≥45 years who received ASM treatment from January 2001 to May 2019 were identified. Patients with DM-associated diseases and short-term ASM use were excluded. The patients were classified into nonenzyme interaction, enzyme-inducing, enzyme-inhibiting, and mixed ASM groups. The rate of incident diabetes associated with individual ASM was further analyzed. Propensity score weighting was performed to balance between-group differences. Analyses were conducted with Cox proportional regression models and stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated at 3, 4, 6, and 9 years after the index date and the end of follow-up. RESULTS A total of 5,103 patients were analyzed, of whom 474 took nonenzyme interaction ASMs, 1,156 took enzyme-inducing ASMs, 336 took enzyme-inhibiting ASMs, and 3,137 took mixed ASMs. During follow-up (39,248 person-years), 663 patients developed new-onset DM, and the prevalence was 13.0%. The incidence of DM plateaued at 6-9 years after ASM initiation. Enzyme-inhibiting ASMs were significantly associated with a higher HR starting at the third year and then throughout the study period. The HRs were 1.93 (95% CI 1.33-2.80), 1.85 (95% CI 1.24-2.75), and 2.08 (95% CI 1.43-3.03) in unadjusted, adjusted, and stabilized IPTW models, respectively, at the end of follow-up. The dosing of ASM did not increase the risk of DM, and none of the individual ASM analyses reached statistical significance. DISCUSSION The long-term use of enzyme-inhibiting ASMs was associated with an increased risk of incident DM, and the risk increased with the duration of treatment. These findings may guide the choice of drugs in those requiring long-term ASM therapy, particularly in high-risk individuals. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE This study provides Class IV evidence that enzyme-inhibiting ASMs were associated with an increased risk of developing DM compared with nonenzyme interaction ASMs.

Abstract
Non-insulin-based insulin resistance (IR) indices serve as the indicators of metabolic syndrome (MetS) but have limited value for predicting clinical outcomes. Whether the obesity paradox affects the predictive value of these indicators in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unknown. We investigated whether MetS and non-insulin-based IR indices can predict all-cause mortality and renal outcomes in a prospective observational study with stage 1-4 CKD Asians (N = 2,457). These IR indices were associated with MetS. A Cox regression model including body mass index (BMI) revealed an association between MetS and renal outcomes. Among the IR indices, only high triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index was associated with adverse renal outcomes: the hazard ratio of Q4 quartile of the TyG index was 1.38 (1.12-1.70). All-cause mortality was marginally associated with MetS but not high IR indices. Low TyG and TyG-BMI indices as well as low BMI and triglyceride were paradoxically associated with increased risks of clinical outcomes. The triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and metabolic score for IR indices were not associated with clinical outcomes. In conclusion, MetS and TyG index predict renal outcome and obesity paradox affects the prediction of IR indices in patients with stage 1-4 CKD.

Abstract
Introduction Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent environmental toxicants that have been implicated in numerous health disorders including liver diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Toxicant-associated NAFLD, also known as toxicant-associated fatty liver disease (TAFLD), consists of a spectrum of disorders ranging from steatosis and steatohepatitis to fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Previously, our group demonstrated that 12-week exposure to the PCB mixture, Aroclor 1260, exacerbated steatohepatitis in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice; however, the longer-term effects of PCBs on TAFLD remain to be elucidated. This study aims to examine the longer-term effects of Aroclor 1260 (>30 weeks) in a diet-induced obesity model to better understand how duration of exposure can impact TAFLD. Methods Male C57BL/6 mice were exposed to Aroclor 1260 (20 mg/kg) or vehicle control by oral gavage at the beginning of the study period and fed either a low-fat diet (LFD) or HFD throughout the study period. Results Aroclor 1260 exposure (>30 weeks) led to steatohepatitis only in LFD-fed mice. Several Aroclor 1260 exposed LFD-fed mice also developed hepatocellular carcinoma (25%), which was absent in HFD-fed mice. The LFD+Aroclor1260 group also exhibited decreased hepatic Cyp7a1 expression and increased pro-fibrotic Acta2 expression. In contrast, longer term Aroclor 1260 exposure in conjunction with HFD did not exacerbate steatosis or inflammatory responses beyond those observed with HFD alone. Further, hepatic xenobiotic receptor activation by Aroclor 1260 was absent at 31 weeks post exposure, suggesting PCB redistribution to the adipose and other extra-hepatic tissues with time. Discussion Overall, the results demonstrated that longer-term PCB exposure worsened TAFLD outcomes independent of HFD feeding and suggests altered energy metabolism as a potential mechanism fueling PCB mediated toxicity without dietary insult. Additional research exploring mechanisms for these longer-term PCB mediated toxicity in TAFLD is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the association between siestas/no siestas and obesity, considering siesta duration (long: >30 minutes, short: ≤30 minutes), and test whether siesta traits and/or lifestyle factors mediate the association of siestas with obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS). METHODS This was a cross-sectional study of 3275 adults from a Mediterranean population (the Obesity, Nutrigenetics, TIming, and MEditerranean [ONTIME] study) who had the opportunity of taking siestas because it is culturally embedded. RESULTS Thirty-five percent of participants usually took siestas (16% long siestas). Compared with the no-siesta group, long siestas were associated with higher values of BMI, waist circumference, fasting glucose, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure, as well as with a higher prevalence of MetS (41%; p = 0.015). In contrast, the probability of having elevated SBP was lower in the short-siesta group (21%; p = 0.044) than in the no-siesta group. Smoking a higher number of cigarettes per day mediated the association of long siestas with higher BMI (by 12%, percentage of association mediated by smoking; p < 0.05). Similarly, delays in nighttime sleep and eating schedules and higher energy intake at lunch (the meal preceding siestas) mediated the association between higher BMI and long siestas by 8%, 4%, and 5% (all p < 0.05). Napping in bed (vs. sofa/armchair) showed a trend to mediate the association between long siestas and higher SBP (by 6%; p = 0.055). CONCLUSIONS Siesta duration is relevant in obesity/MetS. Timing of nighttime sleep and eating, energy intake at lunch, cigarette smoking, and siesta location mediated this association.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Comparing the Effects of Biguanides (Metformin) and Thiazolidinediones on Glucose Tolerance and Insulin Sensitivity in Patients With Type II Diabetes Mellitus. Cureus 2023; 15:e39445. [PMID: 37362539 PMCID: PMC10289479 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.39445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a global epidemic affecting people of all ages in developed and developing countries. The disease is usually characterized by insulin resistance and glucose intolerance; therefore, oral antidiabetic drugs such as thiazolidinediones (TZDs) and biguanide metformin are used to counter these defects. Due to the varied action mechanisms of TZDs and Metformin, their effects on insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance may differ. Therefore, the current study was carried out to compare the effects of Metformin and TZDs on insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance among patients with T2DM. Two methods, including using a well-outlined search strategy in 5 electronic databases including ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and Embase, and a manual search which involved going through the reference lists of studies from the electronic databases were used to retrieve studies published between 2000 and 2022. Additionally, data analysis of outcomes retrieved from the studies eligible for inclusion and the methodological quality was carried out using the Review Manager software (RevMan 5.4.1) and STATA. The meta-analysis has shown that TZDs have a significantly better overall effect on fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (SMD:0.61; 95% CI:0.06, 1.16: p = 0.03) and insulin sensitivity than Metformin (Mean QUICKI: 0.306 ± 0.019 vs. 0.316 ± 0.019, respectively; p=0.0003). However, the TZDs and Metformin offer the same effect on glycemic control as assessed using HBA1c levels (MD: 0.10; 95% CI: -0.20, 0.40; p = 0.52). TZDs offer better insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance improvements compared to Metformin. This evidence contradicts the current guidelines by the American Diabetes Association/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (ADA/EASD) and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinology (AACE/ACE), which recommend the use of Metformin as the first-line drug monotherapy for patients with T2DM.

Vitamin D Levels in the Pre- and Post-COVID-19 Pandemic Periods and Related Confinement at Pediatric Age. Nutrients 2023; 15:2089. [PMCID: PMC10181113 DOI: 10.3390/nu15092089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) restrictions have been correlated with vitamin D deficiency in children, but some uncertainties remain. We retrospectively studied vitamin 25-(OH) D blood levels in 2182 Italian children/adolescents hospitalized for various chronic diseases in the year before (n = 1052) and after (n = 1130) the nationwide lockdown. The type of underlying disease, gender, and mean age (91 ± 55 and 91 ± 61 months, respectively) of patients included in the two periods were comparable. Although mean levels were the same (p = 0.24), deficiency status affected a significantly higher number of subjects during the lockdown period than in the pre-COVID period (p = 0.03), particularly in summer (p = 0.02), and there was also a smoothing of seasonal variations in vitamin D levels. Particularly at risk were males (OR = 1.22; p = 0.03), the 1–5 year age group (OR = 1.57; p < 0.01) and the 6–12 year age group (OR = 1.30; p = 0.04). Infants appeared not to be affected (p = 1.00). In the post-COVID period, the risk of vitamin D deficiency was unchanged in disease-specific groups. However, the proportion of deficiency or severe deficiency differed significantly in the subgroup with endocrinopathy (higher; Chi-square p = 0.04), and with respiratory problems and obesity (lower; Chi-square p = 0.01 and p < 0.01, respectively). Conflicting/opposite literature results advocate for further studies to clearly indicate the need for supplementation during possible future periods of confinement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although insulin resistance (IR) and cardiometabolic syndrome are prevalent in patients with bipolar disorder (BD), only a few studies have attempted to precisely assess the degree and clinical impact of IR in BD. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted from multiple research databases through May 2022, following a pre-defined protocol (PROSPERO: CRD42022359259). We extracted neuroimaging, cognition, illness course, and treatment response findings from individuals with BD with evidence of IR compared with euglycemic BD individuals. RESULTS Of 1436 identified articles, 10 reports fulfilling inclusion criteria were included (n = 1183). BD patients with IR displayed worse composite verbal memory scores and worse executive function and exhibited smaller hippocampal volumes along with prefrontal neurochemical alterations compared to euglycemic BD patients. Fixed-effect meta-analysis revealed that BD patients with impaired glucose metabolism (IGM) were more likely to develop a chronic and rapid cycling course when compared with euglycemic BD patients (k = 2, OR = 2.96, 95 % CI 1.69-5.17, OR = 2.88, 95 % CI 1.59-5.21, p < 0.001, respectively), with a trend for significantly lower Global Assessment of Functioning scores (k = 5, MD = -4, 95 % CI -8.23-0.23, p = 0.06). BD patients with IGM displayed a higher rate of poor response to mood stabilizers when compared with euglycemic BD patients (k = 2, OR = 6.74, 95 % CI 1.04-43.54, p = 0.04). LIMITATIONS Cross-sectional design and small sample sizes of studies included limit the generalizability of results. CONCLUSION IR is associated with worse clinical outcomes of BD and inadequate treatment response. Implementing strategies to prevent and treat IR in BD is crucial to improve the prognosis of such a difficult-to-treat population.

Effects and individual response of continuous and interval training on adiponectin concentration, cardiometabolic risk factors, and physical fitness in overweight adolescents. Eur J Pediatr 2023:10.1007/s00431-023-04974-6. [PMID: 37055629 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-04974-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effect and individual responsiveness after 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity of continuous training (MICT) on adiponectin, cardiometabolic risk factors and physical fitness in overweight adolescents. This study was participated by 52 adolescents, both sexes, 11 and 16 years old, separated into HIIT (n = 13), MICT (n = 15), and control group (CG, n = 24). Body mass, height, waist circumference (WC), fat mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM), blood pressure, high-density lipoprotein (HDL-c), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-c), triglycerides, glucose, insulin, adiponectin, and C-reactive protein (CRP) were evaluated. Body mass index z-score (BMI-z), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), insulin resistance, and insulin sensitivity were calculated. Resting heart rate (HRrest), peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), right handgrip strength (HGS-right), left handgrip strength (HGS-left), and abdominal resistance (ABD) was evaluated. HIIT session lasted around 35 min and MICT of 60 min of exercises on stationary bicycle, three times a weekday for 12 weeks. ANOVA, effect size, and prevalence of responders were used for statistical analysis. HIIT reduced BMI-z, WHtR, LDL-c, and CRP, while increased of physical fitness. MICT reduced HDL-c, while increased of physical fitness. CG reduced FM, HDL-c, and CRP, while increased FFM and HRrest. Frequencies of respondents in HIIT were observed for CRP, VO2peak, HGS-right, and HGS-left. Frequencies of respondents in MICT were observed for CRP and HGS-right. Frequencies of no-respondents in CG were observed for WC, WHtR, CRP, HRrest, and ABD. Conclusion: Interventions with exercises were effective to adiposity, metabolic health, and physical fitness improvements. Individual responses were observed in inflammatory process and physical fitness, important changes in overweight adolescent's therapy. Trial registration number and date of registration: This study was registered with the Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (REBEC), the number RBR-6343y7, date of registration May 3, 2017. What is Known: • Effect of regular physical exercise positively affects overweight, comorbidities, and metabolic diseases, recommended mainly for children and adolescents. What is New: • Due to the great inter-individual variability, the same stimulus can provide different responses; adolescents who benefit from the stimulus are considered responsive. • Intervention of HIIT and MICT did not alter the concentrations of adiponectin; however, the adolescents presented responsiveness to the inflammatory process and physical fitness.

Abstract
Leptin (LEP) and omentin (OMEN) are proteins whose concentrations change with the development of the metabolic syndrome (MetS). There are few intervention studies using various forms of physical activity in people with MetS that aim to determine the impact of physical exercise on the fluctuations of the presented hormones, and their results are contradictory. The present study aimed to examine the effect of two types of exercise intervention on LEP and OMEN concentrations and indicators of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in males with MetS. The study included 62 males with MetS (age 36.6 ± 6.9 years, body mass 110.31 ± 17.37 kg), randomly allocated to EG1, the examined group with aerobic training (n = 21); EG2, the examined group with combined aerobic and resistance training (n = 21), both for 12 weeks, and the control group (CG) without interventions (n = 20). Anthropometric measurements, body composition (body fat [BF], android body fat [ANDR]), as well as a biochemical blood analysis (omentin [OMEN], leptin [LEP], quantitative insulin sensitivity check index [QUICKI], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C] and nonHDL-C) were performed at baseline, and at 6 and 12 weeks of interventions and after 4 weeks after ending intervention (follow-up). Intergroup and intragroup comparisons were performed. In the intervention groups EG1 and EG2, a decrease in BF was observed as well as an improvement in carbohydrate metabolism parameters. In the EG1 group, the level of ANDR was reduced. In EG2 a decrease in LEP concentration between measurements was confirmed. However, no significant changes were found in the concentration of OMEN in any groups. Combined aerobic and resistance exercises led to a higher reduction of LEP concentration than applying only aerobic training in males with MetS.

Dietary ketone ester attenuates the accretion of adiposity and liver steatosis in mice fed a high-fat, high-sugar diet. Front Physiol 2023; 14:1165224. [PMID: 37113697 PMCID: PMC10128912 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1165224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: The ketone diester, R,S-1,3-butanediol diacetoacetate (BD-AcAc2), attenuates the accretion of adiposity and reduces hepatic steatosis in high-fat diet-induced obese mice when carbohydrate energy is removed from the diet to accommodate energy from the ester. Reducing carbohydrate energy is a potential confounder due to the well-known effects of carbohydrate restriction on components of energy balance and metabolism. Therefore, the current investigation was designed to determine whether the addition of BD-AcAc2 to a high-fat, high-sugar diet (with no reduction in carbohydrate energy) would attenuate the accretion of adiposity and markers of hepatic steatosis and inflammation. Methods: Sixteen 11-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomized to one of two groups for 9 weeks (n = 8 per group): 1) Control (CON, HFHS diet) or 2) Ketone ester (KE, HFHS diet + BD-AcAc2, 25% by kcals). Results: Body weight increased by 56% in CON (27.8 ± 2.5 to 43.4 ± 3.7 g, p < 0.001) and by 13% in KE (28.0 ± 0.8 to 31.7 ± 3.1 g, p = 0.001). Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease activity scores (NAS) for hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and ballooning were lower in the KE group compared to CON (p < 0.001 for all). Markers of hepatic inflammation [Tnfα (p = 0.036); Mcp1 (p < 0.001)], macrophage content [(Cd68 (p = 0.012)], and collagen deposition and hepatic stellate cell activation [(αSma (p = 0.004); Col1A1 (p < 0.001)] were significantly lower in the KE group compared to CON. Conclusion: These findings extend those of our previous work and show that BD-AcAc2 attenuates the accretion of adiposity and reduces markers of liver steatosis, inflammation, ballooning, and fibrosis in lean mice placed on a HFHS diet where carbohydrate energy was not removed to accommodate energy from addition of the diester.

Abstract
The glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a peptide with incretin activity and plays an important role in glycemic control as well as the improvement of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the short half-life of the native GLP-1 in circulation poses difficulties for clinical practice. To improve the proteolytic stability and delivery properties of GLP-1, a protease-resistant modified GLP-1 (mGLP-1) was constructed with added arginine to ensure the structural integrity of the released mGLP-1 in vivo. The model probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 was chosen as the oral delivery vehicle with controllable endogenous genetic tools driven for mGLP-1 secretory constitutive expression. The feasibility of our design was explored in db/db mice which showed an improvement in diabetic symptoms related to decreased pancreatic glucagon, elevated pancreatic β-cell proportion, and increased insulin sensitivity. In conclusion, this study provides a novel strategy for the oral delivery of mGLP-1 and further probiotic transformation.

BACKGROUND AND AIM Hypertension (HTN) is common among obese children and adolescents and increases their cardiovascular risk later in adulthood. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of HTN identified by office blood pressure (BP) measurement and ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) in a cohort of obese children and adolescents and its association with anthropometric and glycometabolic indices. METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy consecutive obese Caucasian children and adolescents aged 7-16 years were enrolled. Patients underwent ABPM, echocardiogram and carotid ultrasonography. Sex- and age-adjusted logistic multivariable analysis models were used to assess the association between HOMA-IR, HOMA-β, QUICKI with HTN at ABPM. Receiver Operation Curve (ROC) analysis with Youden J statistics was used to identify the optimal HOMA-IR, HOMA-β and QUICKI cut-off to predict HTN at ABPM. Hypertensive office BP was found in 25.7% of obese patients. ABPM diagnosed HTN in 34.9% of patients: 20.6% of obese patients had masked HTN (MHTN), and 12.7% had white coat HTN (WCH). Hypertensive obese patients (according to ABPM) had higher HOMA-IR and HOMA-β, and a lower QUICKI than normotensive subjects. HOMA-IR, HOMA-β and QUICKI predicted HTN at ABPM in obese patients in age- and sex-adjusted logistic multivariable models. Optimal cut-offs to predict HTN at ABPM in obese patients were: HOMA-IR ≥ 3.30, HOMA-β ≥ 226.7 and QUICKI <0.33, with high sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS A sequential testing strategy applying office BP and glycometabolic indices can identify hypertensive obese pediatric patients with high diagnostic accuracy and potentially reducing costs. This strategy needs validation in an external and larger cohort.

The impact of physical inactivity on glucose homeostasis when diet is adjusted to maintain energy balance in healthy, young males. Clin Nutr 2023; 42:532-540. [PMID: 36857962 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2023.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS It is unclear if dietary adjustments to maintain energy balance during reduced physical activity can offset inactivity-induced reductions in insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal to produce normal daily glucose concentrations and meal responses. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the impact of long-term physical inactivity (60 days of bed rest) on daily glycemia when in energy balance. METHODS Interstitial glucose concentrations were measured using Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems (CGMS) for 5 days before and towards the end of bed rest in 20 healthy, young males (Age: 34 ± 8 years; BMI: 23.5 ± 1.8 kg/m2). Energy intake was reduced during bed rest to match energy expenditure, but the types of foods and timing of meals was maintained. Fasting venous glucose and insulin concentrations were determined, as well as the change in whole-body glucose disposal using a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp (HIEC). RESULTS Following long-term bed rest, fasting plasma insulin concentration increased 40% (p = 0.004) and glucose disposal during the HIEC decreased 24% (p < 0.001). Interstitial daily glucose total area under the curve (tAUC) from pre-to post-bed rest increased on average by 6% (p = 0.041), despite a 20 and 25% reduction in total caloric and carbohydrate intake, respectively. The nocturnal period (00:00-06:00) showed the greatest change to glycemia with glucose tAUC for this period increasing by 9% (p = 0.005). CGMS measures of daily glycemic variability (SD, J-Index, M-value and MAG) were not changed during bed rest. CONCLUSIONS Reduced physical activity (bed rest) increases glycemia even when daily energy intake is reduced to maintain energy balance. However, the disturbance to daily glucose homeostasis was much more modest than the reduced capacity to dispose of glucose, and glycemic variability was not negatively affected by bed rest, likely due to positive mitigating effects from the contemporaneous reduction in dietary energy and carbohydrate intake.

Leveraging the future of diagnosis and management of diabetes: From old indexes to new technologies. Eur J Clin Invest 2023; 53:e13934. [PMID: 36479853 DOI: 10.1111/eci.13934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is a heterogeneous and multifactorial disease. However, glycemia and glycated hemoglobin have been the focus of diabetes diagnosis and management for the last decades. As diabetes management goes far beyond glucose control, it has become clear that assessment of other biochemical parameters gives a much wider view of the metabolic state of each individual, enabling a precision medicine approach. METHODS In this review, we summarize and discuss indexes that have been used in epidemiological studies and in the clinical practice. RESULTS Indexes of insulin secretion, sensitivity/resistance and metabolism have been developed and validated over the years to account also with insulin, C-peptide, triglycerides or even anthropometric measures. Nevertheless, each one has their own objective and consequently, advantages and disadvantages for specific cases. Thus, we discuss how new technologies, namely new sensors but also new softwares/applications, can improve the diagnosis and management of diabetes, both for healthcare professionals but also for caretakers and, importantly, to promote the empowerment of people living with diabetes. CONCLUSIONS In long-term, the solution for a better diabetes management would be a platform that allows to integrate all sorts of relevant information for the person with diabetes and for the healthcare practitioners, namely glucose, insulin and C-peptide or, in case of need, other parameters/indexes at home, sometimes more than once a day. This solution would allow a better and simpler disease management, more adequate therapeutics thereby improving patients' quality of life and reducing associated costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rising prevalence of insulin resistance (IR), metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes are associated with increases in abdominal mesenteric fat. Adipocytes are sensitive to low temperatures, making cryolipolysis of mesenteric fat an attractive treatment modality to potentially reduce IR. OBJECTIVES We aimed to determine whether (1) cryolipolysis is safe in reducing the volume of the mesenteric fat and (2) reduction in mesenteric fat volume reduces indices of IR and glycemic dysfunction. SETTING Indiana University School of Medicine. METHODS A novel cooling device and method delivered cryolipolysis in a controlled manner to avoid tissue ablative temperatures. Ossabaw pigs (n = 8) were fed a high-fat diet for 9 months to develop visceral obesity, IR, and metabolic syndrome. Following laparotomy, mesenteric fat cryolipolysis (MFC) was performed in 5 pigs, while 3 served as sham surgery controls. The volume of the mesenteric fat was measured by computed tomography and compared with indices of glucose intolerance before and at 3 and 6 months postprocedure. RESULTS MFC safely reduced mesenteric fat volume by ∼30% at 3 months, which was maintained at 6 months. Body weight did not change in either the MFC or sham surgery control groups. Measure of glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, and blood pressure significantly improved after MFC compared with sham controls. CONCLUSION MFC reduces the volume of mesenteric fat and improves glycemic control in obese, IR Ossabaw pigs, without adverse effects.

Abstract
AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the probable mechanism of action of Biochanin A (BCA) on high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance mice. METHODS Twenty-four male C57/BL/6J mice were divided into two and fed either control diet or a high fat-high diet (HFD). After 6 weeks, mice were grouped into: Control, Control + BCA, HFD and HFD + BCA (n = 6). Mice were made diabetic by feeding them an HFD. RESULTS Body weight, plasma glucose, insulin, leptin levels and HOMA values were significantly lower in the BCA supplemented HFD group when related to the HFD group. Furthermore, BCA supplementation significantly increased Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS 1), PI3K, Akt and Glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4) protein abundance in skeletal muscle when equated with HFD. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that BCA can improve insulin sensitivity by activating insulin signalling, suggesting that it may possess antidiabetic activities.

Abstract
Background: Estimation of insulin sensitivity (SI) and its daily variation are key for optimizing insulin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). We recently developed a method for SI estimation from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) data in adults with T1D (SISP) and validated it under restrained experimental conditions. Herein, we validate in vivo a new version of SISP performing well in daily life unrestrained conditions. Methods: The new SISP was tested in both simulated and real data. The simulated dataset consists of 100 virtual adults of the UVa/Padova T1D Simulator monitored during an open-loop experiment, whereas the real dataset consists of 10 youths with T1D monitored during a hybrid closed-loop meal study. In both datasets, participants underwent two consecutive meals (breakfast and lunch, at 7 and 11 am) with the same carbohydrate content (70 g). Plasma glucose and insulin were measured during each meal to estimate the oral glucose minimal model SI (SIMM). CGM and CSII data were used for SISP calculation, which was then validated against the gold standard SIMM. Results: SISP was estimated with good precision (median coefficient of variation <20%) in 100% of the real and 91% of the simulated meals. SISP and SIMM were highly correlated, both in the simulated and real datasets (R = 0.82 and R = 0.83, P < 0.001), and exhibited a similar intraday pattern. Conclusions: SISP is suitable for estimating SI in both closed- and open-loop settings, provided that the subject wears a CGM sensor and a subcutaneous insulin pump.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity-related hypertension and the associated metabolic abnormalities are considered as a distinct hypertensive phenotype. Here we examined how abdominal fat content, as judged by waist:height ratio, influenced blood pressure and hemodynamic profile in normotensive subjects and never-treated hypertensive patients. METHODS The 541 participants (20-72 years) underwent physical examination and laboratory analyses and were divided into age and sex-adjusted quartiles of waist:height ratio. Supine hemodynamics were recorded using whole-body impedance cardiography, combined with analyses of radial tonometric pulse wave form and heart rate variability. RESULTS Mean waist:height ratios in the quartiles were 0.46, 0.51, 0.55 and 0.62. Radial and aortic blood pressure, systemic vascular resistance, pulse wave velocity, markers of glucose and lipid metabolism, leptin levels and C-reactive protein were higher in quartile 4 when compared with quartiles 1 and 2 (p < 0.05 for all). Cardiac index was lower in quartile 4 versus quartile 1, while no differences were seen in heart rate variability, augmentation index, plasma renin activity, and aldosterone concentration between the quartiles. Linear regression analyses showed independent associations of abdominal obesity with higher aortic systolic and diastolic blood pressure, systemic vascular resistance, and pulse wave velocity (p < 0.05 for waist:height ratio in all regression models). CONCLUSION Higher waist:height ratio was associated with elevated blood pressure, systemic vascular resistance, and arterial stiffness, but not with alterations in cardiac sympathovagal modulation or activation of the circulating renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Although obesity-related elevation of blood pressure has distinct phenotypic features, these results suggest that its main characteristics correspond those of primary hypertension.

High omega-6/omega-3 fatty acid and oxylipin ratio in plasma is linked to an adverse cardiometabolic profile in middle-aged adults. J Nutr Biochem 2023; 117:109331.

Abstract
Omega-6 and omega-3 oxylipins may be surrogate markers of systemic inflammation, which is one of the triggers for the development of cardiometabolic disorders. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between plasma levels of omega-6 and omega-3 oxylipins with body composition and cardiometabolic risk factors in middle-aged adults. Seventy-two 72 middle-aged adults (39 women; 53.6±5.1 years old; 26.7±3.8 kg/m2) were included in this cross-sectional study. Plasma levels of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids and oxylipins were determined using targeted lipidomic. Body composition, dietary intake, and cardiometabolic risk factors were assessed with standard methods. The plasma levels of the omega-6 fatty acids and derived oxylipins, the hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs; arachidonic acid (AA)-derived oxylipins) and dihydroxy-eicosatrienoic acids (DiHETrEs; AA-derived oxylipins), were positively associated with glucose metabolism parameters (i.e., insulin levels and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA); all r≥0.21, P<.05). In contrast, plasma levels of omega-3 fatty acids and derived oxylipins, specifically hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acids (HEPEs; eicosapentaenoic acid-derived oxylipins), as well as series-3 prostaglandins, were negatively associated with plasma glucose metabolism parameters (i.e., insulin levels, HOMA; all r≤0.20, P<.05). The plasma levels of omega-6 fatty acids and derived oxylipins, HETEs and DiHETrEs were also positively correlated with liver function parameters (i.e., glutamic pyruvic transaminase, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), and fatty liver index; all r≥0.22 and P<.05). In addition, individuals with higher omega-6/omega-3 fatty acid and oxylipin ratio showed higher levels of HOMA, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, and GGT (on average +36%), as well as lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (-13%) (all P<.05). In conclusion, the omega-6/omega-3 fatty acid and oxylipin ratio, as well as specific omega-6 and omega-3 oxylipins plasma levels, reflect an adverse cardiometabolic profile in terms of higher insulin resistance and impaired liver function in middle-aged adults.

[PMID: 37047103 PMCID: PMC10094028 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Sex-specific differences exist in insulin secretion (ISec) and sensitivity (IS) in humans. However, current fasting indices used to estimate them, such as HOMA and QUICKI, are not sex-specific. We aimed to develop sex-specific models to improve the prediction of ISec and IS by fasting measures in adults with overweight/obesity. A post hoc analysis was conducted on baseline data of two clinical trials completed between 2010 and 2020 (37 men and 61 postmenopausal women, 45-73 years, BMI > 25 kg/m2, without chronic disease). Glucose-induced insulin or C-peptide secretions and IS were measured using gold-standard Botnia-clamps, which is a 1 h intravenous glucose tolerance test followed by a 3 h hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. Stepwise regression analysis using anthropometric and fasting plasma glucose, insulin, and lipoprotein-related measures was used to predict ISec and IS. First-phase, second-phase and total glucose-induced ISec were predicted by a combination of fasting plasma insulin and apoB without or with plasma glucose, triglyceride, and waist circumference in women (R2 = 0.58-0.69), and by plasma insulin and glucose without or with BMI and cholesterol in men (R2 = 0.41-0.83). Plasma C-peptide, alone in men or followed by glucose in women, predicted C-peptide secretion. IS was predicted by plasma insulin and waist circumference, followed by HDL-C in women (R2 = 0.57) or by glucose in men (R2 = 0.67). The sex-specific models agreed with the Botnia-clamp measurements of ISec and IS more than with HOMA or QUICKI. Sex-specific models incorporating anthropometric and lipoprotein-related parameters allowed better prediction of ISec and IS in subjects with overweight or obesity than current indices that rely on glucose and insulin alone.

High-Intensity Interval Training Ameliorates Molecular Changes in the Hippocampus of Male Rats with the Diabetic Brain: the Role of Adiponectin. Mol Neurobiol 2023; 60:3486-3495. [PMID: 36877358 DOI: 10.1007/s12035-023-03285-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/07/2023]
Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study investigated the impact of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on diabetes-induced disturbances in AD-related factors (including AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β), and tau protein) in the hippocampus, with the main focus on adiponectin signaling.In total, 28 male Wistar rats at the age of 8 weeks were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 7 in each group): control (Con), type 2 diabetes (T2D), HIIT (Ex), and type 2 diabetes + HIIT (T2D + Ex). T2D was induced by a high-fat diet plus a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ). Rats in Ex and T2D + Ex groups performed 8 weeks of HIIT (running at 8-95% of Vmax, 4-10 intervals). Insulin and adiponectin levels in serum and hippocampus were measured along with hippocampal expression of insulin and adiponectin receptors, phosphorylated AMPK, dephosphorylated GSK3β, and phosphorylated tau. Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance beta (HOMA-β), and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) were calculated to assess insulin resistance and sensitivity. T2D decreased insulin and adiponectin levels in serum and hippocampus, as well as the hippocampal levels of insulin and adiponectin receptors and AMPK, but increased GSK3β and tau in the hippocampus. HIIT reversed diabetes-induced impairments and consequently decreased tau accumulation in the hippocampus of diabetic rats. HOMA-IR, HOMA-β, and QUICKI were improved in Ex and T2D + Ex groups. Overall, our results confirmed that T2D has undesirable effects on the levels of some Alzheimer's-related factors in the hippocampus, and HIIT could ameliorate these impairments in the hippocampus.

Distribution of OGTT-Related Variables in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis from Puberty to Adulthood: An Italian Multicenter Study. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13030469. [PMID: 36983651 PMCID: PMC10056682 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13030469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Insulin secretion and glucose tolerance is annually assessed in patients with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) through oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) as a screening measure for cystic fibrosis-related diabetes. We aimed to describe the distribution and provide reference quartiles of OGTT-related variables in the Italian cystic fibrosis population. Methods: Cross-sectional study of PwCF receiving care in three Italian cystic fibrosis centers of excellence, from 2016 to 2020. We performed a modified 2-h OGTT protocol (1.75 g/kg, maximum 75 g), sampling at baseline and at 30-min intervals, analyzing plasma glucose, serum insulin, and C-peptide. The modified OGTT allowed for the modeling of β cell function. For all variables, multivariable quantile regression was performed to estimate the median, the 25th, and 75th percentiles, with age, sex, and pancreatic insufficiency as predictors. Results: We have quantified the deterioration of glucose tolerance and insulin secretion with age according to sex and pancreatic insufficiency, highlighting a deviation from linearity both for patients <10 years and >35 years of age. Conclusions: References of OGTT variables for PwCF provide a necessary tool to not only identify patients at risk for CFRD or other cystic fibrosis-related complications, but also to evaluate the effects of promising pharmacological therapies.

Abstract
Dysregulation of 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) occurs in metabolic disorders including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) which makes it a molecular target for treatment. An AMPK activator, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) alleviates NAFLD in experimental rats, however the specific mechanism remains to be explored. We aimed to study the effect of AICAR on lipid levels, oxidant-antioxidant balance, AMPK and mTOR activation and FOXO3 gene expression in liver of mice model. Fatty liver was induced in two groups of C57BL/6 mice (groups 2 and 3) by providing a high fat high fructose diet (HFFD) for 10 weeks while groups 1 and 4 animals were fed normal pellet. For the last two weeks, groups 3 and 4 were administered AICAR (150 mg/kg bw/day, i.p.) while groups 1 and 2 were administered saline. AICAR decreased fatty liver, decreased glucose and insulin in circulation, prevented the accumulation of triglycerides and collagen and ameliorated oxidative stress in HFFD fed mice. At the molecular level, AICAR upregulated FOXO3 and p-AMPK expression and reduced p-mTOR expression. AMPK activation may involve FOXO3 in protection against NAFLD. The role of AMPK, mTOR and FOXO3 crosstalk in NAFLD needs to be characterised in future.

Abstract
AIMS A family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) markedly increases an individual's lifetime risk of developing the disease. For gestational diabetes (GDM), this risk factor is less well characterized. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between family history of T2DM in first- and second-degree relatives in women with GDM and the differences in metabolic characteristics at early gestation. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 1129 pregnant women. A broad risk evaluation was performed before 16 + 0 weeks of gestation, including a detailed family history of the different types of diabetes and a laboratory examination of glucometabolic parameters. Participants were followed up until delivery and GDM assessed according to the latest diagnosis criteria. RESULTS We showed that pregnant women with first- (FHD1, 26.6%, OR 1.91, 95%CI 1.16 to 3.16, p = 0.005), second- (FHD2, 26.3%, OR 1.88, 95%CI 1.16 to 3.05, p = 0.005) or both first- and second-degree relatives with T2DM (FHD1 + D2, 33.3%, OR 2.64, 95%CI 1.41 to 4.94, p < 0.001) had a markedly increased risk of GDM compared to those with negative family history (FHN) (n = 100, 15.9%). The association was strongest if both parents were affected (OR 4.69, 95%CI 1.33 to 16.55, p = 0.009). Women with FHD1 and FHD1 + D2 had adverse glucometabolic profiles already in early pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS Family history of T2DM is an important risk factor for GDM, also by applying the current diagnostic criteria. Furthermore, we showed that the degree of kinship plays an essential role in quantifying the risk already at early pregnancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disorder, which is characterized by insulin resistance (IR) and menstrual cycle disorders. IR is thought of as a pivotal cause of PCOS and related comorbidities. However, the link between IR and abnormal menstrual cycles in PCOS should be further studied. In this study, we clarified the dose-response relationship between IR and abnormal menstrual cycles in patients with PCOS. RESULTS In this retrospective study including 140 patients with PCOS, we found that there was a dose-response relationship between the increased HOMA-IR index and the level of menstrual cycle disorders (1.61 [95%CI: 1.37-1.85] for normal menstruation, 2.02 [95%CI: 1.61-2.44] for oligomenorrhea, 2.35 [95%CI:1.96-2.75] for amenorrhea, P for trend = 0.003). Further stratification analyses showed that this dose-response relationship was more evident in the patients who were younger, had higher BMI, higher AFC numbers, elevated levels of testosterone, anti-Müllerian hormone, inhibin B, and prolactin levels, and had a lower progestogen level. CONCLUSIONS Our study has established an association between IR and abnormal menstrual cycles in patients with PCOS, which can be affected by age, BMI, and hormone levels. Our results might be helpful for further prevention and treatment of amenorrhea in PCOS.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a chronic disease characterized by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia. To investigate T2D, genetic and chemical induced hyper-obese rodent models have been experimentally developed. However, establishment of moderate-obese diabetes model will confer diverse opportunities for translational studies. In this study, we found the chemical, GLUTFOURINH® (GFI), induces post-translational degradation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4). We aimed to establish novel diabetic model by using GFI. METHODS AND RESULTS Low plasma membrane GLUT4 (pmGLUT4) levels by GFI resulted in reduction of intracellular glucose uptake and TG, and increase of intracellular FFA in A204 cells. Likewise, GFI treatment decreased intracellular TG and increased intracellular FFA levels in Hep3B and 3T3-L1 cells. Mice were administered with GFI (16 mg/kg) for short-term (3-day) and long-term (28- and 31-day) to compared with vehicle injection, HFD model, and T2D model, respectively. Short-term and long-term GFI treatments induced hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia with low pmGLUT4 levels. Compared to HFD model, long-term GFI with HFD reduced adipose weight and intracellular TG accumulation, but increased plasma FFA. GFI treatment resulted in insulin resistance by showing low QUICKI and high HOMA-IR values, and low insulin response during insulin tolerance test. Additionally, low pmGLUT4 by GFI heightened hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance compared to T2D model. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we report GLUT4 degradation by novel chemical (GFI) induces moderate-obese diabetes representing hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and low intracellular lipid accumulation. The GLUT4 degradation by GFI has translational value for studying diseases related to moderate-obese diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown that dietary intakes and gene variants have a critical role in the obesity related comorbidities. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the interactions between Fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2) gene rs174583 polymorphism and two dietary indices on cardiometabolic risk factors. METHODS This cross-sectional study was carried out on 347 obese adults aged 20-50 years old in Tabriz, Iran. Healthy eating index (HEI) and Diet quality index-international (DQI-I) were evaluated by a validated semi-quantitative 147-item Food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to determine FADS2 gene variants. Multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) was used to identify gene-diet interactions on metabolic parameters. RESULTS Waist circumference (WC) and serum triglyceride (TG) levels were significantly higher among carriers of TT genotype of FADS2 gene (P < 0.05). In addition, the interactions between FADS2 gene rs174583 polymorphism and DQI-I had significant effects on weight (P interaction = 0.01), fat mass (P interaction = 0.04), fat free mass (P interaction = 0.03), and Body mass index (BMI) (P interaction = 0.02); the highest level of these parameters belonged to TT carriers. Similarly, the interactions between FADS2 gene variants and HEI had significant effects on insulin (P interaction < 0.001), Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (P interaction < 0.001), Quantitative insulin check index (QUICKI) (P interaction = 0.001), and alpha Melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) (P interaction = 0.03). CONCLUSION In this study, for the first time, we reported the effects of gene-diet interactions on metabolic traits. Compliance with dietary indices (DQI-I and HEI) ameliorated the adverse effects of gene variants on metabolic risk factors, especially in heterogeneous genotypes. Further prospective cohort studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) presents clinical symptoms of menstrual abnormalities, excessive hair growth (hirsutism), scalp hair loss, acne and infertility. Metabolic abnormalities such as obesity, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance and cardiovascular problems constitute an essential part of PCOS, all of which can have significant long-term health consequences. Low-grade chronic inflammation demonstrated by persistent moderately elevated serum levels of inflammatory and coagulatory markers plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of PCOS. Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) constitute the mainstay of pharmacologic therapy for women with PCOS to regularize cyclicity and ameliorate androgen excess. On the other hand, OCP use is associated with various venous thromboembolic and proinflammatory events in the general population. PCOS women always carriers the increased lifetime risk of these events. The studies on the effect of OCPs on inflammatory, coagulation and metabolic parameters in PCOS are less robust. Therefore in this study, we investigated and compared the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profiles of genes implicated in inflammatory and coagulation pathways between drug-naive and OCP-treated PCOS women. The selected genes include intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). Furthermore, the correlation between the selected markers and various metabolic indices in the OCP group has also been explored. METHOD The relative amounts of ICAM-1, TNF-α, MCP-1 and PAI-1 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 25 drug-naive PCOS subjects (controls) and 25 PCOS subjects who received OCPs containing 0.03 mg-ethinyl-estradiol and 0.15 mg-levonorgestrel for at least six months (cases) were estimated using real-time qPCR. The statistical interpretation was conducted using SPSS version 20.0 (SPSS, Inc, Chicago, IL), Epi Info version 2002 (Disease Control and Prevention Centres, Atlanta, GA) and GraphPad Prism 5 (GraphPad Software, La Jolla, CA) software. RESULT Six months of OCP therapy enhanced the expression of inflammatory genes viz ICAM-1, TNF-α and MCP-1 mRNA in PCOS women by 2.54, 2.05 and 1.74 folds, respectively, in this study. However, PAI-1 mRNA in the OCP group showed no significant increase. Furthermore, in cases, ICAM-1 mRNA expression positively correlated with body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.01), fasting insulin (p = 0.01), insulin 2 h p = 0.02), glucose 2 h (p = 0.01) and triglycerides (p = 0.01). TNF-α mRNA expression positively correlated with fasting insulin (p = 0.0007). MCP-1 mRNA expression positively correlated with (BMI) (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION OCPs helped reduce clinical hyperandrogenism and regularise menstrual cycles in women with PCOS. However, OCP use was associated with increased fold expression of inflammatory markers which positively correlated with metabolic abnormalities.

Impaired white adipose tissue fatty acid metabolism in mice fed a high-fat diet worsened by arsenic exposure, primarily affecting retroperitoneal adipose tissue. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2023; 468:116428. [PMID: 36801214 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2023.116428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023]
Abstract
Fatty acid (FA) metabolism dysfunction of white adipose tissue (WAT) underlies obesity and insulin resistance in response to high calorie intake and/or endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), among other factors. Arsenic is an EDC that has been associated with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. However, the combined effect of a high-fat diet (HFD) and arsenic exposure on WAT FA metabolism has been little studied. FA metabolism was evaluated in visceral (epididymal and retroperitoneal) and subcutaneous WAT of C57BL/6 male mice fed control or HFD (12 and 40% kcal fat, respectively) for 16 weeks together with an environmentally relevant chronic arsenic exposure through drinking water (100 μg/l) during the second half of the study. In mice fed HFD, arsenic potentiated the increase of serum markers of selective insulin resistance in WAT and fatty acid re-esterification and the decrease in the lipolysis index. Retroperitoneal was the WAT most affected, where the combination of arsenic and HFD in contrast to HFD, generated higher weight, larger adipocytes, increased triglyceride content, and decreased fasting stimulated lipolysis evidenced by lower phosphorylation of HSL and perilipin. At the transcriptional level, arsenic in mice fed either diet downregulated genes involved in fatty acid uptake (LPL, CD36), oxidation (PPARα, CPT1), lipolysis (ADRß3) and glycerol transport (AQP7 and AQP9). Additionally, arsenic potentiated hyperinsulinemia induced by HFD, despite a slight increase in weight gain and food efficiency. Thus, the second hit of arsenic in sensitized mice by HFD worsens fatty acid metabolism impairment in WAT, mainly retroperitoneal, along with an exacerbated insulin resistance phenotype.

Abstract
Triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is a reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance, associated with morbidity and prognosis of cardiovascular disease. However, its predictive value for cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic total occlusion (CTO) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been studied. Here, we retrospectively enrolled 681 patients with T2DM and CTO after PCI. Patients were divided into two groups based on a median TyG index of 9.02. The TyG index was calculated as ln [fasting triglyceride (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. The primary observational end point was the composite of overall death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and unplanned revascularization. The Multivariate Cox hazards regression analysis showed that the TyG index was significantly correlated with the primary end point (hazard ratio = 1.699, 95% confidence interval 1.254-2.303, p = 0.001). The addition of TyG to a baseline risk model had an incremental effect on the predictive value for the primary end point (area under the curve: TyG index vs baseline model, 0.693 vs 0.663, comparison p = 0.040; integrated discrimination improvement = 0.049, p = 0.020). The TyG index might be a predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. Moreover, adding the TyG index into a baseline risk model had a cumulative effect on the predictive potential for the primary end point.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder (BD) is linked to several structural and functional brain alterations. In addition, BD patients have a three-fold increased risk of developing insulin resistance, which is associated with neural changes and poorer BD outcomes. Therefore, we investigated the effects of insulin and two derived measures (insulin resistance and sensitivity) on white matter (WM) microstructure, resting-state (rs) functional connectivity (FC), and fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF). METHODS BD patients (n = 92) underwent DTI acquisition, and a subsample (n = 22) underwent rs-fMRI. Blood samples were collected to determine insulin and glucose levels. The Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) were computed. DTI data were analyzed via tract-based spatial statistics and threshold-free cluster enhancement. From rs-fMRI data, both ROI-to-ROI FC matrices and fALFF maps were extracted. RESULTS Insulin showed a widespread negative association with fractional anisotropy (FA) and a positive effect on radial diffusivity (RD) and mean diffusivity (MD). HOMA-IR exerted a significant effect on RD in the right superior longitudinal fasciculus, whereas QUICKI was positively associated with FA and negatively with RD and MD in the left superior longitudinal fasciculus, left anterior corona radiata, and forceps minor. fALFF was negatively modulated by insulin and HOMA-IR and positively associated with QUICKI in the precuneus. No significant results were found in the ROI-to-ROI analysis. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that WM microstructure and functional alterations might underlie the effect of IR on BD pathophysiology, even if the causal mechanisms need to be further investigated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemias co-occur frequently with severe mental illnesses (SMI). However, less is known about serum insulin and lipid levels and prevalence of Insulin Resistance (IR) in offspring with familial risk for SMI. METHOD The Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 consists of 12,068 mothers, 11,068 fathers, and 12,231 children from the two northernmost provinces in Finland. At age 46 they participated in clinical examination including measurements of glucose, lipids, and IR and answered a questionnaire including information about their nutrition and physical activity. The information on parental SMI was obtained from the Hospital Discharge Register. Parents with SMI were those who had been treated in hospital for any psychiatric disorder during 1969-1982 (ICD-8 codes 290-315). The final study group included 334 (7.3 %) offspring who had a parent with SMI and 4249 (92.7 %) offspring in the comparison group. RESULTS We did not find increased risk for disturbances in lipid levels, insulin levels, or IR levels between the study group (offspring of either parent with SMI) compared with the comparison group. All offspring, especially female offspring of either parent with SMI, had an increased risk for higher glucose levels and waist circumference. The results remained the same after excluding offspring with SMI. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that offspring of parents with SMI, especially female offspring, have partly increased risk for disturbances in cardiometabolic risk factors. Disturbances in glucose metabolism may have an effect via familial risk of severe mental illness.
