Abstract
Prospective inter-relationships among biomarkers were unexplored, which may provide mechanistic insights into diseases. We investigated the longitudinal associations of BMI change with trajectories of biomarkers related to cardiometabolic or breast cancer risk. A longitudinal study was conducted among 444 healthy women between 2019 to 2021. Cross‑lagged path analysis was used to examine the temporal relationships among BMI, cardiometabolic risk score (CRS), and obesity‑related proteins score (OPS) of breast cancer. Linear mixed-effect models were applied to investigate associations of time-varying BMI with biomarker-based risk score trajectories. Baseline BMI was associated with subsequent change of breast cancer predictors (P = 0.03), and baseline CRS were positively associated with OPS change (P < 0.001) but not vice versa. After fully adjustment of confounders, we found a 0.058 (95%CI = 0.009-0.107, P = 0.020) units increase of CRS and a 1.021 (95%CI = 0.041-1.995, P = 0.040) units increase of OPS as BMI increased 1 kg/m2 per year in postmenopausal women. OPS increased 0.784 (95%CI = 0.053-1.512, P = 0.035) units as CRS increased 1 unit per year. However, among premenopausal women, BMI only significantly affected CRS (β = 0.057, 95%CI = 0.007 to 0.107, P = 0.025). No significant change of OPS with time-varying CRS was found. Higher increase rates of BMI were associated with worse trajectories of biomarker-based risk of cardiometabolic and breast cancer. The longitudinal impact of CRS on OPS is unidirectional. Recommendations such as weight control for the reduction of cardiometabolic risk factors may benefit breast cancer prevention, especially in postmenopausal women.

Insulin and body mass index decrease serum soluble leptin receptor levels in humans. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2022; 108:1110-1119. [PMID: 36459457 PMCID: PMC10099165 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgac699] [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: 08/16/2022] [Revised: 11/30/2022] [Accepted: 11/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Test how serum soluble leptin receptor (sOb-R) is influenced by glucose, insulin, body fat, body mass index (BMI), food intake and physical activity. METHODS We performed an epidemiological triangulation combining cross-sectional, interventional and Mendelian randomization study designs. In five independent clinical studies (n = 24-823), sOb-R was quantified in serum or plasma by commercial ELISA kits using monoclonal antibodies. We performed mixed models regression and two-sample Mendelian randomization. RESULTS In pooled, cross-sectional data, levelling on study, sOb-R associated inversely with body mass index (BMI) (beta [95% CI] -0.19 [-0.21 to -0.17]), body fat (-0.12 [-0.14 to -0.10) and fasting C-peptide (-2.04 [-2.46 to -1.62]). sOb-R decreased in response to acute hyperinsulinaemia during euglycaemic glucose clamp in two independent clinical studies (-0.5 [-0.7 to -0.4] and -0.5 [-0.6 to -0.3]), and immediately increased in response to intensive exercise (0.18 [0.04 to 0.31]) and food intake (0.20 [0.06 to 0.34]). In two-sample Mendelian randomization, higher fasting insulin and higher BMI were causally linked to lower sOb-R levels (inverse variance weighted, -1.72 [-2.86 to -0.58], and -0.20 [-0.36 to -0.04], respectively). The relationship between hyperglycaemia and sOb-R were inconsistent in cross-sectional studies, non-significant in intervention studies, and two-sample Mendelian randomization suggested no causal effect of fasting glucose on sOb-R. MAIN CONCLUSION Both BMI and insulin causally decreased serum sOb-R levels. Conversely, intensive exercise and food intake acutely increased sOb-R. Our results suggest that sOb-R is involved in short-term regulation of leptin signalling, either directly or indirectly, and that hyperinsulinaemia may reduce leptin signalling.

In middle-aged and old obese patients, training intervention reduces leptin level: A meta-analysis. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0182801. [PMID: 28809927 PMCID: PMC5557366 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0182801] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2016] [Accepted: 07/25/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Leptin is one of the major adipokines in obesity that indicates the severity of fat accumulation. It is also an important etiological factor of consequent cardiometabolic and autoimmune disorders. Aging has been demonstrated to aggravate obesity and to induce leptin resistance and hyperleptinemia. Hyperleptinemia, on the other hand, may promote the development of age-related abnormalities. While major weight loss has been demonstrated to ameliorate hyperleptinemia, obese people show a poor tendency to achieve lasting success in this field. The question arises whether training intervention per se is able to reduce the level of this adipokine. OBJECTIVES We aimed to review the literature on the effects of training intervention on peripheral leptin level in obesity during aging, in order to evaluate the independent efficacy of this method. In the studies that were included in our analysis, changes of adiponectin levels (when present) were also evaluated. DATA SOURCES 3481 records were identified through searching of PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library Database. Altogether 19 articles were suitable for analyses. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Empirical research papers were eligible provided that they reported data of middle-aged or older (above 45 years of age) overweight or obese (body mass index above 25) individuals and included physical training intervention or at least fitness status of groups together with corresponding blood leptin values. STATISTICAL METHODS We used random effect models in each of the meta-analyses calculating with the DerSimonian and Laird weighting methods. I-squared indicator and Q test were performed to assess heterogeneity. To assess publication bias Egger's test was applied. In case of significant publication bias, the Duval and Tweedie's trim and fill algorithm was used. RESULTS Training intervention leads to a decrease in leptin level of middle-aged or older, overweight or obese male and female groups, even without major weight loss, indicated by unchanged serum adiponectin levels. Resistance training appears to be more efficient in reducing blood leptin level than aerobic training alone. CONCLUSIONS Physical training, especially resistance training successfully reduces hyperleptinemia even without diet or major weight loss.

Leptin's activity on the hydroxyl radical: a possible link to the oxidative stress-related endothelial vasodilation in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Lung 2013; 191:391-5. [PMID: 23689876 DOI: 10.1007/s00408-013-9466-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2013] [Accepted: 04/13/2013] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity, whereas the underlying mechanism is still eluding, the thought participants are chronic intermittent hypoxia with consequent increase in the reactive oxygen species, leading to endothelial cell damage and dysfunction in these patients. As the hydroxyl radical (·OH) mediates the vascular smooth muscle relaxation, identification of its scavengers might reveal sentinel markers of decreased vascular responsiveness and worse long-term comorbid outcome. We therefore assessed leptin's scavenger effect on (∙)OH using the electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method. METHODS The (∙)OH was generated by the Fenton reaction in the presence of spin-trap 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) with various concentrations of leptin (0.25, 2.5, and 25 μg/ml) and without leptin. EPR spectrometer settings were: modulation frequency, 100 kHz; X band microwave frequency, 9.5 GHz; microwave power, 20 mW (milliwatts); modulation amplitude, 1.0 G (gauss); time constant, 160 s; scan time, 200 s; and receiver gain, 1 × l0(5). EPR signal intensity between 3,440 and 3,540 G of measurements taken in at least three separate experiments was reported. Mannitol, a known (∙)OH scavenger, at 100 mM significantly decreased the DMPO-OH adduct formation and was used as the active-control agent. RESULTS Leptin added to aqueous solutions at all concentrations was associated with a statistically significant decrease in EPR signal compared with controls due to its scavenging activity towards the ·OH. CONCLUSIONS Leptin could be further investigated as a sentinel biomarker of decreased vascular responsiveness and future risk of atherosclerotic disease in obese OSA patients.
