Abstract
Objective Coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are closely associated with increased rate of death. C1q/TNF-related protein 6 (CTRP6) is a novel adipocytokine which plays an important role in glucose and lipid metabolism. Little is known about the function of CTRP6 in CAD and T2DM patients. Herein, we aimed to study the association of CTRP6 level with CAD and T2DM. Methods This study included 51 CAD, 44 CAD+T2DM and 65 non-CAD+T2DM patients from Affiliated Aoyang Hospital of Jiangsu University. Serum CTRP6 concentrations were detected by ELISA. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the association of serum CTRP6 with CAD and T2DM. Results Serum CTRP6 concentrations were significantly lower in CAD patients than controls. However, there is no significant statistical difference between CAD+T2DM patients and non-CAD+T2DM patients. Serum CTRP6 was negatively correlated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (ρ=-0.2769, p=0.028) in controls. Serum CTRP6 was positively correlated with age (ρ=0.4121, p=0.0027), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (ρ=0.4012, p=0.0035), Creatinine (ρ=0.3295, p=0.0194), uric acid (UA) (ρ=0.3386, p=0.0162), and left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVD) (ρ=0.4277, p=0.0042) and negatively correlated with ejection fraction (EF) (ρ=-0.3237, p=0.0342) in CAD patients. Serum CTRP6 was negatively correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (ρ=-0.3164, p=0.0387) in CAD+T2DM patients. Multiple logistic regression showed that the decrease of CTRP6 was significantly related to the increased prevalence of CAD. What is more, CTRP6 increased prevalence of T2DM in CAD patients. Conclusion Lower serum CTRP6 could be a risk factor of CAD. However, higher circulating CTRP6 associated with the increased prevalence of T2DM in CAD patients.

Abstract
Purpose of review C1q/TNF-related proteins (CTRPs) are involved in the modulation of the development and prognosis of atherosclerosis (AS). Here, we summarizes the pathophysiological roles of individual members of the CTRP superfamily in the development of AS. Currently, there is no specific efficacious treatment for AS-related diseases, therefore it is urgent to develop novel therapeutic strategies aiming to target key molecules involved in AS. Recent findings Recently, mounting studies verified the critical roles of the CTRP family, including CTRP1-7, CTRP9 and CTRP11-15, in the development and progression of AS by influencing inflammatory response, modulating glucose and lipid metabolism, regulating endothelial functions and the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Conclusions CTRP family regulate different pathophysiology stages of AS. CTRP3, CTRP9, CTRP12, CTRP13 and CTRP15 play a clear protective role in AS, while CTRP5 and CTRP7 play a pro-atherosclerotic role in AS. The remarkable progress in our understanding of CTRPs' role in AS will provide an attractive therapeutic target for AS.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:967918. [PMID: 36061536 PMCID: PMC9437344 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.967918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The C1q/TNF-related protein (CTRP) family affects inflammation regulation, energy metabolism, and insulin signaling. However, their role in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) development is unclear. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to investigate the association between CTRP family and ACS. Methods We enrolled 289 consecutive inpatients with suspected ACS. Serum CTRP family, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and adiponectin (ADP) levels were assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Multivariate logistic regression and subgroup analyses were used to assess risk factors for ACS. Spearman's tests were used to analyze correlations between CTRP family and continuous variables. Results Serum CTRP family levels differed significantly between ACS and Control groups (p < 0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, CTRP family were independently associated with ACS (p < 0.05). The association between serum CTRP family levels and ACS was stable in various subgroups according to sex, age, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia status (p for interaction > 0.05). Increasing tertiles of serum CTRP1 levels, significantly increased ACS risks, which decreased gradually with increasing CTRP2, CTRP12, and CTRP13 tertiles (p for trend < 0.05). Additionally, serum CTRP1, CTRP2, CTRP13, and CTRP15 levels were weakly correlated with the severity of coronary artery stenosis. Conclusion CTRP1 and CTRP5 were identified as independent ACS risk factors, whereas CTRP2, CTRP3, CTRP9, CTRP12, CTRP13, and CTRP15 were independent protective factors for ACS. CTRP family, especially CTRP1 and CTRP3 could be novel potential clinical biomarkers of ACS.

Circulating C1q/TNF-related protein-12 levels are associated with the severity of coronary artery disease. Cytokine 2021; 144:155545. [PMID: 33965313 DOI: 10.1016/j.cyto.2021.155545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Revised: 04/10/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the world's largest cause of death. The association of CAD with inflammation is well established. Recently, it has been confirmed that the C1q/TNF-related protein 12 (CTRP12) has a great anti-inflammatory effect. However, few data are available regarding the serum CTRP12 concentration levels in CAD patients. OBJECTIVE The study was performed to evaluate the correlation between the serum levels of CTRP12 and the CAD severity regarding to the number of affected vessels. METHODS About 200 suspected CAD patients and 50 healthy ones as a control, were evaluated based on case-control study. According to the results of angiography, patients were divided into CAD+ (n = 150) with any major coronary artery stenosis ≥50% and CAD- (n = 50) with <50% stenosis of the arteries. The CAD+patients were categorized into one- (1VD), two- (2VD) and three-vessel disease (3VD) based on the number of stenotic vessels. In the current study, different parameters such as CTRP12, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were evaluated, and also lipid profiles, hs-CRP and demographic factors were investigated as well. RESULTS Data revealed that CTRP12 and TAC levels in CAD + group were significantly lower than control subjects (P < 0.05). CTRP12 levels were found to be significantly lower in the 3VD compared with 1VD and 2VD subgroups (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). CONCLUSION Our results confirmed that serum CTRP12 level is inversely associated with CAD severity. Therefore, it may be used as a prediction marker for CAD.

Regulation of circulating CTRP-2/CTRP-9 and GDF-8/GDF-15 by intralipids and insulin in healthy control and polycystic ovary syndrome women following chronic exercise training. Lipids Health Dis 2021; 20:34. [PMID: 33874963 PMCID: PMC8054421 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-021-01463-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with obesity, diabetes, and insulin resistance. The circulating C1Q/TNF-related proteins (CTRP-2, CTRP-9) and growth differentiation factors (GDF-8, GDF-15) contribute to glucose and lipid homeostasis. The effects of intralipids and insulin infusion on CTRP-2, CTRP-9, GDF-8 and GDF-15 in PCOS and control subjects before and after chronic exercise training were examined. Methods Ten PCOS and nine healthy subjects were studied at baseline status and after moderate-intensity chronic exercise training (1 h exercise, 3 times per week, 8 weeks). All participants were infused with 1.5 mL/min of saline or intralipids (20%) for 5 h, and during the last 2 h of saline or intralipids infusion hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp (HIEC) was performed. CTRP-2, CTRP-9, GDF-8 and GDF-15 levels were measured at 0, 3 and 5 h. Results Intralipids dramatically increased CTRP-2 levels in PCOS (P = 0.02) and control (P = 0.004) subjects, which was not affected by insulin infusion or by exercise. Intralipids alone had no effects on CTRP-9, GDF-8, or GDF-15. Insulin increased the levels of GDF-15 in control subjects (P = 0.05) during the saline study and in PCOS subjects (P = 0.04) during the intralipid infusion. Insulin suppressed CTRP9 levels during the intralipid study in both PCOS (P = 0.04) and control (P = 0.01) subjects. Exercise significantly reduced fasting GDF-8 levels in PCOS (P = 0.03) and control (P = 0.04) subjects; however, intralipids infusion after chronic exercise training increased GDF-8 levels in both PCOS (P = 0.003) and control (P = 0.05) subjects and insulin infusion during intralipid infusion reduced the rise of GDF-8 levels. Conclusion This study showed that exogenous lipids modulate CTRP-2, which might have a physiological role in lipid metabolism. Since chronic exercise training reduced fasting GDF-8 levels; GDF-8 might have a role in humoral adaptation to exercise. GDF-15 and CTRP-9 levels are responsive to insulin, and thus they may play a role in insulin responses.
