Independent association of severity of obstructive sleep apnea with lipid metabolism of atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and apoB/apoAI ratio. Sleep Breath 2020; 24:1507-1513. [PMID: 31981042 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02016-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2019] [Revised: 01/12/2020] [Accepted: 01/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are highly prevalent in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and dyslipidemia is an important factor. Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP, log[TG/HDL-C]) and apolipoproteinB to apolipoproteinAI ratio (apoB/apoAI ratio) are considered high quality predictors of cardiovascular risk. However, the associations between OSA severity and AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio remained unclear. METHODS A retrospective study was performed in 284 patients. Subjects were assessed with polysomnography (PSG) test, and OSA severity was defined by AHI. Data collected included anthropometric measurements, medical history, sleep parameters, fasting plasma lipids, fasting blood glucose, and insulin. RESULTS Participants were classified based on AHI into the following groups: control group (n = 28), mild group (n = 52), moderate group (n = 53), and severe group (n = 151). Triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apoAI, AIP, apoB/apoAI ratio (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol), LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, and HDL-C/apoAI ratio showed statistical significance among AHI subgroups (P < 0.05). The Pearson correlation analysis revealed that AIP (r = 0.32, P < 0.001) and apoB/apoAI ratio (r = 0.24, P < 0.001) were positively related to AHI. By multivariate linear regression analysis, we found that AHI was independently related to AIP (β = 0.24, P = 0.001), apoB/apoAI ratio (β = 0.24, P<0.001). CONCLUSION AHI was independently correlated with AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio in OSA. Our findings suggested that AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio increased with OSA severity, which might be partly responsible for the high risk of CVDs in OSA.

Long-term use of angiotensin II receptor antagonists and calcium-channel antagonists in Algerian hypertensive patients: effects on metabolic and oxidative parameters. Free Radic Biol Med 2015; 79:147-53. [PMID: 25499852 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2014.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2014] [Revised: 10/28/2014] [Accepted: 12/02/2014] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The effects of calcium antagonists (amlodipine) and angiotensin II receptor antagonists (telmisartan) on lipid profile and oxidative markers were investigated in Algerian hypertensive patients. At the beginning and after 1 year of antihypertensive therapy, blood samples are collected for determination of biochemical parameters (glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, urea, creatinine) and oxidative markers (malondialdehyde, carbonyl proteins, nitric oxide, superoxide anion, vitamin C, glutathione, catalase, superoxide dismutase). The results of this study indicate that telmisartan and amlodipine are effective antihypertensive agents in the treatment of hypertension because a significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure was observed in all hypertensive patients after 1 year of treatment. Our results show also that telmisartan and amlodipine treatments counteracted hypertension-dependent lipid abnormalities and oxidative stress. Telmisartan treatment appears to be more efficient than amlodipine treatment. In addition, telmisartan, which reversed all lipid and redox changes associated with hypertension, should be prescribed, especially in hypertensive patients with hypertriglyceridemia and with severe oxidative stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An association between obstructive sleep apnoea/hypopnea (OSAH) and cardiovascular risk factors such as dyslipidemia has been described in adults and high-risk populations. PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined this association in a prospective cohort (SYNAPSE study) of 846 elderly (68.5+/-1.1 years) volunteers (41.6% of men). No subject presented with recognized OSAH syndrome, heart disease, or any neurological disorder. Unattended at-home polygraphy was done by all subjects. OSAH severity was defined as moderate (apnoea/hypopnea index: AHI>15/h) or severe (AHI>30/h). High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) was measured by immuno-separation-based homogenous assay. RESULTS The prevalence of severe cases reached 21.5% (AHI mean+/-SD: 43.5+/-11.9). Using univariate linear regression analysis, AHI (R=-0.172; p<0.0001), oxyhemoglobin desaturation index (ODI) (R=-0.108; p<0.002), mean SaO(2) (R=0.125; p<0.0003) and Nadir SaO(2) (R=0.094; p<0.007) were significantly associated with HDL-c. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that male gender, BMI, waist to hip ratio, ODI, and AHI represent independent predictors of HDL-c. Logistic regression analysis showed a significant association between severe OSAH and low HDL-c serum levels (p<0.03) after adjustment for gender, BMI, hypertension, glycaemia, waist to hip ratio, alcohol intake and treated dyslipidemia. The association appears more evident in subjects free of lipid-lowering medications and beta-blockers (p<0.007). There was no independent association of OSAH syndrome with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. CONCLUSION Unrecognized moderate to severe apnoea/hypopnea syndrome was independently associated with low HDL-c serum levels in the present cross-sectional based elderly population. This could explain the deleterious effect of OSAH syndrome on cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Hypertension is common in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), and contributes to the progression of its complications in patients with diabetes. Doxazosin is a selective alpha1-adrenoceptor-blocking anti-hypertensive agent and has a favorable impact upon lipid metabolism. We investigated the effect of doxazosin on the lipid metabolism in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes, especially low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size that is associated with many elements of the insulin resistance syndrome. Cross-sectional study (n=19) was designed to determine whether doxazosin, administered with an angiotensin II-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and a Ca antagonist, affects LDL particle size. As a follow-up study (n=6), lipid and glucose metabolism and LDL particle size were followed for 12 weeks before and after the initiation of doxazosin administration (1-4 mg/day). The average size of LDL particle was significantly larger in the patients treated with doxazosin (LDL-migration index (LDL-MI): 0.348+/-0.027) than those in the patient treated without doxazosin (0.378+/-0.035), although LDL cholesterol levels did not differ between the two groups. The plasma glucose and HbA1c levels remained unchanged. Lipid profile showed normolipemia throughout the period of the study. However, LDL particle size was demonstrated to become larger during the following period. Small LDL fraction (LDL3-7) diminished remarkably and large LDL (LDL1-2) increased on the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) LDL system (LipoPrint). From this pilot study, it was concluded that doxazosin is a useful anti-hypertensive agent for hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients in improving the size of LDL particle.

Abstract
As muscle tissue constitutes a main target organ for glucose metabolism and is responsible for the development of insulin resistance, it seems plausible to elucidate the relationship between blood pressure and muscle morphology and metabolism. The association between blood pressure and capillarization/morphology of the vastus lateralis muscle and metabolic variables was evaluated in 24 perimenopausal obese women [body mass index (BMI) 34.9 +/- 1.1; waist-hip ratio (WHR) 0.90 +/- 0.02]. The muscle enzyme activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), citrate synthase and glycogen synthase was determined. There was a significant negative correlation between the percentage of type I fibres and relative fibre area of type I on the one hand and systolic and diastolic blood pressure on the other. There was a negative correlation between the capillary density (i.e. number of capillaries/muscle fibre) and a positive correlation between the diffusion distance (fibre area supplied by one capillary) and diastolic blood pressure. The activities of LPL and citrate synthase were positively correlated with the percentage of type I and negatively correlated with the percentage of type II muscle fibres. The activity of LPL was also negatively correlated with plasma glucose and the insulin/C-peptide ratio. The insulin/C-peptide ratio was positively correlated with the percentage of type II muscle fibres. In stepwise multiple regression analyses, 20-30% of the variation in systolic and diastolic blood pressure could be explained by the variables of muscle fibre distribution. Excluding muscle morphological variables from the regression model, the insulin/C-peptide ratio accounted for 13% of the variation in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The results of the study show the close association between muscle morphology and blood pressure. It remains to be elucidated whether this association indicates a causal relationship.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial-bound lipoprotein lipase (LPL), also known as heparin-releasable LPL, catalyzes the breakdown of the triglyceride component of lipoproteins and is rate-limiting for free fatty acid transport to tissues. We previously demonstrated that heparin-releasable LPL activity increases in diabetic Wistar rat hearts, whereas with the development of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), there is a concomitant and progressive reduction in LPL activity. The objective of the present study was to examine the regulation of cardiac LPL activity in SHR-diabetic rats. Heparin perfusion of the isolated Langendorff heart induced the release of LPL activity. SHR hearts demonstrated a reduction in peak heparin-releasable LPL activity, relative to Wistar controls. However, induction of streptozotocin-induced diabetes in SHR, as in Wistar rats, increased peak heparin-releasable LPL activity in perfused hearts. The elevated heparin-releasable LPL peak could not be accounted for by enhanced LPL synthesis in that both cellular and surface-bound LPL activities in myocytes from SHR-diabetic rats were low relative to control. Chronic (12-day) insulin treatment of SHR-diabetic rats reduced the augmented heparin-releasable LPL activity and increased cell-associated LPL activity. Moreover, acute (90-minute) treatment of SHR-diabetic rats with rapid-acting insulin also reduced the heparin-releasable LPL activity to normal, although it had no effect on the low cellular LPL activity. These results demonstrate that the diabetes-induced augmentation of cardiac LPL counteracts the reduction in enzyme activity associated with hypertension. This may serve to increase the delivery of free fatty acid to the heart, and the resultant metabolic changes may lead to the severe cardiomyopathy observed in the hypertensive-diabetic rat heart.

Abstract
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an endothelium-bound enzyme that is rate determining for the clearance of triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins. We assessed cardiac heparin-releasable LPL activity in an acquired model of hypertension, the fructose-hypertensive rat. Fructose feeding (10% solution in drinking water ad libitum) for 2 (short-term) or 4-6 (long-term) weeks induced hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperinsulinemia in male Wistar rats. After short- and long-term fructose treatment, LPL activity in coronary perfusates was determined by retrogradely perfusing the hearts with heparin. Short-term fructose treatment did not alter cardiac heparin-releasable LPL activity, whereas a significant decrease in LPL activity was seen in the long-term treated group. Discontinuation of fructose treatment for 2 weeks from the long-term group normalized blood pressure and cardiac heparin-releasable LPL activity. Interestingly, acute vasodilation by in vitro perfusion of coronary vasodilators like nifedipine and CGS-21680 increased cardiac heparin-releasable LPL activity in the long-term group to control levels. These studies demonstrate that long-term fructose-induced hypertension may play a significant role in regulating cardiac LPL activity. Whether or not this altered LPL activity has a role in the regulation of fatty acid supply to the hypertensive heart has yet to be determined.

Abstract
The regulation of plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level by the joint influence of plasma lipoprotein lipids, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), hepatic lipase (HL), cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), oral glucose tolerance, and postload plasma insulin and proinsulin levels was investigated in young postinfarction patients and healthy population-based control subjects. In addition, the association between HDL cholesterol and the number and severity of coronary stenoses previously reported in this cohort of young postinfarction patients was further investigated by analyzing the determinants and angiographic relations of HDL subclasses measured by gradient gel electrophoresis. The following parameters showed significant univariate relations with HDL cholesterol level in the patient group: very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol and triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) triglyceride, and postload plasma insulin concentrations, preheparin plasma LPL mass, and postheparin plasma HL activity. In the control group, significant correlations with HDL cholesterol concentration in addition to those noted among the patients were found for body mass index (BMI), LDL cholesterol level, postload plasma intact proinsulin concentration, and LPL activity in postheparin plasma. In contrast to the patients, no significant relations were noted for postload plasma insulin level and preheparin plasma LPL mass. Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that 42% of the variability of HDL cholesterol in the patients could be accounted for by VLDL cholesterol concentration (29%), LDL triglyceride level (7%), and postheparin plasma HL activity (8%), whereas the corresponding figure in controls was 35% (VLDL cholesterol concentration [9%] and postheparin plasma HL activity [26%]. The strength of the relationships of HDL cholesterol and HDL subclasses to the coronary stenosis score was similar and statistically significant (r = .25 to .36). When the metabolic parameters that correlated with HDL cholesterol and HDL subclass concentrations in univariate analysis were used as covariates, all relations to the coronary stenosis score disappeared. This clearly indicates that the influence of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and lipolytic enzymes needs to be considered when assessing the association between HDL cholesterol and coronary artery disease (CAD).
