Differential influences of LDL cholesterol on functional outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis according to prestroke statin use. Sci Rep 2022; 12:15478. [PMID: 36104394 PMCID: PMC9474509 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-19852-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
AbstractThis study aimed to elucidate whether low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels differentially affect functional outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) depending on prestroke statin use. Patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with IVT were categorized into low, intermediate, and high LDL-C groups based on LDL-C levels at admission (< 100/100–130/ > 130 mg/dl, respectively). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the relationships between LDL-C and clinical outcomes (good outcomes at 3 months, modified Rankin Scale scores 0–2). The interaction between LDL-C levels and prestroke statin use regarding functional outcomes was investigated. Among the 4711 patients (age, 67 ± 12 years; males, 62.1%) who met the eligibility criteria, compared with the high LDL-C group, the low and intermediate LDL-C groups were not associated with good outcomes at 3 months according to the multivariable analysis. A potential interaction between the LDL-C group and prestroke statin use on good outcomes at 3 months was observed (Pinteraction = 0.07). Among patients with prestroke statin use, low (aOR 1.84 [1.04–3.26]) and intermediate (aOR 2.31 [1.20–4.47]) LDL-C groups were independently associated with a greater likelihood of having a 3-month good outcome. Our study showed that LDL-C was not associated with a 3-month good outcome, but prestroke statin use could modify the influence of LDL-C levels on functional outcomes after IVT.

Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia is caused by defects in triglyceride metabolism and generally manifests as abnormally high plasma triglyceride levels. Although the role of hypertriglyceridemia may not draw as much attention as that of plasma cholesterol in stroke, plasma triglycerides, especially nonfasting triglycerides, are thought to be correlated with the risk of ischemic stroke. Hypertriglyceridemia may increase the risk of ischemic stroke by promoting atherosclerosis and thrombosis and increasing blood viscosity. Moreover, hypertriglyceridemia may have some protective effects in patients who have already suffered a stroke via unclear mechanisms. Therefore, further studies are needed to elucidate the role of hypertriglyceridemia in the development and prognosis of ischemic stroke.

Zheng J, Guo Y, Hu B, Zhu L, Yang Y, Li S, Li N, Liu H. Serum metabolomic profiles reveal the impact of BuZangTongLuo formula on metabolic pathways in diabetic mice with hindlimb ischemia. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2020; 258:112928. [PMID: 32371144 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2020.112928] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2020] [Revised: 03/18/2020] [Accepted: 04/26/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE BuZangTongLuo Formula (BZTLF) was the decoction of eight traditional Chinese medicines including Astragalus membranaceus, Dioscorea opposita, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Scrophularia ningpoensis, Ophiopogon japonicus, Panax ginseng, Fritillariae cirrhosae and Whitmania pigra. This formula has been used as an effective remedy for treatment of diabetic ischemia clinically. AIM OF THE STUDY In previous study, we have reported the therapeutic effect of BZTLF on diabetic vascular dysfunction. However, it remains obscure about the role of metabolic pathways in BZTLF-initiated improvement on hindlimb ischemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Diabetic mice with hindlimb ischemia were orally administrated with BZTLF by gavage. The serum samples were prepared for untargeted metabolomic analysis by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer. The metabolic network was built by integrating metabolite data with the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset (GSE3313). Further, quantitative PCR was used to confirm the key target genes. RESULTS BZTLF treatment remarkably led to the reversal of changed metabolite levels in serum of diabetic mice with hindlimb ischemia, which mainly derived from bacteria, plant and signaling molecules. Also, BZTLF reshaped the metabolic pathways, especially those responsible for metabolism of lipid, gluthanine and tryptophan. In addition, BZTLF led to the reduction of lysophosphatidic acids (LPAs) and increment of triglycerides (TGs) conjugation with non-saturated fatty acids in serum. BZTLF significantly restored the down-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) or the up-regulation of interleukin 4-induced 1 (IL4I1) and cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 (CYP1B1) at mRNA level, which were key regulatory genes located in metabolic pathways of glutamate and tryptophan. CONCLUSIONS BZTLF improved hindlimb ischemia in diabetic mice by the positive regulation of metabolome changes in serum.
