Abstract
Background Several clinical studies have demonstrated that pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with dysbiosis of airway mucosal microbiota. However, how oral and nasal microbial diversity, composition, and structure are altered in pediatric OSA has not been systemically explored. Methods 30 polysomnography-confirmed OSA patients with adenoid hypertrophy, and 30 controls who did not have adenoid hypertrophy, were enrolled. Swabs from four surface oral tissue sites (tongue base, soft palate, both palatine tonsils, and adenoid) and one nasal swab from both anterior nares were collected. The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) V3-V4 region was sequenced to identify the microbial communities. Results The beta diversity and microbial profiles were significantly different between pediatric OSA patients and controls at the five upper airway sites. The abundances of Haemophilus, Fusobacterium, and Porphyromonas were higher at adenoid and tonsils sites of pediatric patients with OSA. Functional analysis revealed that the differential pathway between the pediatric OSA patients and controls involved glycerophospholipids and amino acid metabolism. Conclusions In this study, the oral and nasal microbiome of pediatric OSA patients exhibited certain differences in composition compared with the controls. However, the microbiota data could be useful as a reference for studies on the upper airway microbiome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with sleep disturbances have gastrointestinal symptoms. Breath hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) indicating small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) might be related with these symptoms. The study was conducted to assess the link between breath profiles and untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS : This prospective study enrolled consecutive patients with OSA using polysomnography. Heart rate variability (HRV) was used as a measurement for the balance of autonomic nervous system during polysomnography. Glucose breath test (GBT) to evaluate breath H2 and CH4 and bowel symptom questionnaire to investigate associated intestinal symptoms were performed. RESULTS Among 52 patients with OSA, 16 (30.8%) showed positivity to GBT. Although no significant difference was shown in GBT positivity between patients with healthy controls and patients with OSA (13.3% vs 30.8%, P = 0.109), breath H2 and CH4 levels in the OSA group were significantly higher than those in controls (P < 0.05). Flatulence was significantly common in OSA groups with GBT positivity than those without GBT positivity. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that waist-to-hip ratio (odds ratio = 12.889; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.257-132.200; P = 0.031) and low-to-high-frequency ratio of HRV (odds ratio = 1.476; 95% CI: 1.013-2.151, P = 0.042) are independently related to GBT positivity in patients with OSA. CONCLUSION : Elevated breath H2 or CH4 after glucose load might not be an uncommon finding in patients with untreated OSA. Abdominal obesity and autonomic imbalance dysfunction are significantly associated with GBT positivity in OSA patients. SIBO could be considered as target for therapeutic management in OSA patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Microorganisms contribute to the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-associated hypertension (HTN), while more studies focus on intestinal microbiome. However, the relationship between oral microbiota and OSA-associated HTN has yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to identify differences in salivary microbiota between patients with OSA comorbid HTN compared with OSA patients, and furthermore evaluate the relationship between oral microbiome changes and increased blood pressure in patients with OSA. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study collected salivary samples from 103 participants, including 27 healthy controls, 27 patients with OSA, 23 patients with HTN, and 26 patients with OSA comorbid HTN, to explore alterations of the oral microbiome using 16S rRNA gene V3-V4 high-throughput sequencing. And ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography was used for metabolomic analysis. RESULTS Alpha- and beta-diversity analyses revealed a substantial difference in community structure and diversity in patients with OSA comorbid HTN compared with patients with OSA or HTN. The relative abundance of the genus Actinomyces was significantly decreased in patients with HTN compared with healthy controls, and those with OSA concomitant HTN compared with the patients in OSA, but was not significantly different between patients with OSA and healthy controls. Linear discriminant analysis effect size and variance analysis also indicated that the genera Haemophilus, Neisseria, and Lautropia were enriched in HTN. In addition, Oribacterium was an unique taxa in the OSA comorbid HTN group compared with the control group. Metabolomic analysis of saliva identified compounds associated with cardiovascular disease in patients with OSA comorbid HTN.2-hydroxyadenine, was significantly increased in the group of patients with OSA compared with controls, and L-carnitine was significantly decreased in patients with OSA comorbid HTN compared with OSA patients. CONCLUSION This study highlighted noninvasive biomarkers for patients with OSA comorbid HTN. As the first study to find alterations of the salivary microbiome in patients with OSA comorbid HTN, it may provide a theoretical foundation for clinical diagnosis and treatment of this condition.

Blockade of adenosine A 2A receptor alleviates cognitive dysfunction after chronic exposure to intermittent hypoxia in mice. Exp Neurol 2021; 350:113929. [PMID: 34813840 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2021.113929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2021] [Revised: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is widely known for its multiple systems damage, especially neurocognitive deficits in children. Since their discovery, adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs) have been considered as key elements in signaling pathways mediating neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington's and Alzheimer's, as well as cognitive function regulation. Herein, we investigated A2AR role in cognitive impairment induced by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). Mice were exposed to CIH 7 h every day for 4 weeks, and intraperitoneally injected with A2AR agonist CGS21680 or A2AR antagonist SCH58261 half an hour before IH exposure daily. The 8-arm radial arm maze was utilized to assess spatial memory after CIH exposures.To validate findings using pharmacology, the impact of intermittent hypoxia was investigated in A2AR knockout mice. CIH-induced memory dysfunction was manifested by increased error rates in the radial arm maze test. The behavioral changes were associated with hippocampal pathology, neuronal apoptosis, and synaptic plasticity impairment. The stimulation of adenosine A2AR exacerbated memory impairment with more serious neuropathological damage, attenuated long-term potentiation (LTP), syntaxin down-regulation, and increased BDNF protein. Moreover, apoptosis-promoting protein cleaved caspase-3 was upregulated while anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 was downregulated. Consistent with these findings, A2AR inhibition with SCH58261 and A2AR deletion exhibited the opposite result. Overall, these findings suggest that A2AR plays a critical role in CIH-induced impairment of learning and memory by accelerating hippocampal neuronal apoptosis and reducing synaptic plasticity. Blockade of adenosine A2A receptor alleviates cognitive dysfunction after chronic exposure to intermittent hypoxia in mice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. In our previous study, it was demonstrated that oral microbiota alteration in patients with OSAHS, particularly in the genera Aggregatibacter and Porphyromonas, may influence the development of hypertension. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the main therapy for OSAHS and OSAHS-associated hypertension. However, the role of oral microbiota post CPAP treatment remains unknown. METHODS We conducted 16S rDNA pyrosequencing and bioinformatic analyses to compare the bacterial composition of oral specimens from patients with OSAHS before and after overnight CPAP treatment. RESULTS This approach enabled a relatively comprehensive description of oral microbiota, with decreases in Gemella and increases in Staphylococcus, f_Lachnospiraceae, Parabacteroides, and f_Ruminococcaceae after CPAP treatment. CONCLUSION Alteration of oral microbiota may shed new insight on the underlying pathogenesis of OSAHS-associated hypertension.
