Abstract
BACKGROUND Prior studies suggest that physical activity lowers circulating C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. However, little is known about the association between regular active commuting, i.e. walking or cycling to work, and CRP concentrations. This study examines whether active commuting is associated with lower CRP. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study using population-based FINRISK data from 1997, 2002, 2007 and 2012. Participants were working adults living in Finland (n = 6208; mean age = 44 years; 53.6% women). We used linear and additive models adjusted for potential confounders to analyze whether daily active commuting, defined as the time spent walking or cycling to work, was associated with lower high-sensitivity (hs-) CRP serum concentrations compared with passive commuting. RESULTS We observed that daily active commuting for 45 min or more (vs. none) was associated with lower hs-CRP [% mean difference in the main model: -16.8%; 95% confidence interval (CI) -25.6% to -7.0%), and results were robust to adjustment for leisure-time and occupational physical activity, as well as diet. Similarly, active commuting for 15-29 min daily was associated with lower hs-CRP in the main model (-7.4; 95% CI -14.1 to -0.2), but the association attenuated to null after further adjustments. In subgroup analyses, associations were only observed for women. CONCLUSIONS Active commuting for at least 45 min a day was associated with lower levels of low-grade inflammation. Promoting active modes of transport may lead not only to reduced emissions from motorized traffic but also to population-level health benefits.

Abstract
The practice of physical activity (PA) is a non-pharmacological variable that alters the immune response through changes in cytokines and cellular immunity. Inversely latent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection prematurely ages the immune system and contributes to the chronic inflammatory condition in several diseases and in aging. This study aimed to compare the association of the PA level and CMV serostatus on whole blood mitogen-stimulated cytokine production of young individuals. The resting blood samples were collected from 100 volunteers of both sexes assigned to one of six groups according to the degree of PA and CMV serostatus: sedentary CMV- (n = 15), moderate physical activity CMV- (moderate PA CMV -, n = 15), high physical activity CMV- (high PA CMV-, n = 15), sedentary CMV+ (n = 20), moderate physical activity CMV + (moderate PA CMV+, n = 20) and high physical activity CMV + (high PA CMV +, n = 20). The collected peripheral blood got diluted in supplemented RPMI-1640 culture medium and incubated for 48 hours with a 2% concentration of phytohemagglutinin at 37ºC and CO2 at 5%. The supernatants were collected and used for the IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and INF-γ analysis by the ELISA method. The IL-10 concentration was higher in the Moderate PA and High PA groups when compared to the sedentary group, regardless of CMV status. The physically active (moderate and high PA) CMV+ individuals presented lower concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α compared to CMV+ sedentary individuals, and the sedentary CMV+ subjects had a higher concentration of INF-γ compared to Sedentary CMV- subjects (p < 0.05). In summary, it is possible to infer that PA is key to controlling inflammation related to CMV infection. The stimulation of physical exercise is an important factor in controlling many diseases at the populational level.

[PMID: 36335760 PMCID: PMC9641027 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2022.102531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Revised: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In-vitro and animal studies demonstrate that epigenetic regulation may play an important role in lipid peroxidation. No human study to date has directly evaluated microRNAs (miRNAs), as epigenetic modulators, in relation to systemic levels of lipid peroxidation. OBJECTIVES To evaluate associations between systemic levels of lipid peroxidation and miRNA expression profiles in women. METHODS Included in the analysis were 92 women aged 40-70 years, a subset of the Shanghai Women's Health Study (SWHS). Lipid peroxidation was assessed by urinary markers F2-isoprostanes (F2-IsoPs), the products of free radical-catalyzed peroxidation of arachidonic acid, and its major metabolite after β-oxidation, 2,3-dinor-5,6-dihydro-15-F2t-IsoP (F2-IsoP-M), with GC/NICI-MS assays. Expression levels of 798 miRNAs were quantified in peripheral plasma with NanoString nCounter assays. A multivariable linear regression model was used to examine the association between lipid peroxidation and miRNA expression. RESULTS After adjusting for potential confounders, 29 miRNAs and 213 miRNAs were associated with F2-IsoPs and F2-IsoP-M, respectively. When further controlling for multiple comparisons, none of these nominally significant associations with F2-IsoPs was retained, whereas 71 of 213 miRNAs associated with F2-IsoP-M remained. The predicted targets of the F2-IsoP-M associated miRNAs were enriched for several lipid peroxidation-related processes such as PI3K/AKT, MAPK, FOXO and HIF-1 signaling pathways. Moreover, 10 miRNAs (miR-93-5p, miR-761, miR-301b-3p, miR-497-5p, miR-141-3p, miR-186-5p, miR-126-3p, miR-200b-3p, miR-520d-3p, and miR-363-3p) exhibited functional interactions with 50 unique mRNAs targets involved in the regulation of β-oxidation. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this study, for the first time, provides human data suggesting that miRNA expression may be linked to lipid peroxidation products and their metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High glycemic index (GI) diets have been linked to elevated risk of cardiometabolic diseases. One possible underlying mechanism comes from high GI diet's potential to promote lipid peroxidation. OBJECTIVES We aim to evaluate whether and to what extent dietary carbohydrate quality and quantity are associated with systemic levels of lipid peroxidation in females. METHODS In this cross-sectional analysis of 2163 middle-aged women, a subset of the Shanghai Women's Health Study, we measured lipid peroxidation biomarkers F2-isoprostanes (F2-IsoPs) and its metabolite, 2,3-dinor-5,6-dihydro-15-F2t-IsoP (F2-IsoP-M), in urine. The quality of carbohydrate was defined by dietary GI, assessed using a validated FFQ via in-person interviews. A multivariable linear regression model with restricted cubic spline functions was used to evaluate the association of measured biomarkers with carbohydrate intake and dietary GI. RESULTS After adjustment for potential confounding factors such as cigarette smoking, BMI, and comorbidities, among others, we found that F2-IsoP-M concentrations were positively associated with both carbohydrate intake and dietary GI. Carbohydrate intake and dietary GI were weakly correlated (r = 0.12). When further mutually adjusted for the 2 factors, the positive association with F2-IsoP-M remained statistically significant for GI (P = 0.004) but not for carbohydrate intake (P = 0.50). Compared with those in the 10th percentile of dietary GI, fold increases (95% CI) in F2-IsoP-M concentrations for those in the 30th, 50th, 70th, and 90th percentiles were 1.03 (1.00, 1.07), 1.06 (1.01, 1.10), 1.09 (1.03, 1.14), and 1.13 (1.05, 1.21), respectively. Moreover, there appeared a threshold regarding the association between dietary GI and F2-IsoP-M concentrations, with the dose-effect slope of GI being 2.3 times greater when GI was ≥75 relative to GI <75. CONCLUSIONS This study provides evidence that the quality of dietary carbohydrate may be more important than the quantity of the intake with regard to systemic lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
In-vitro and animal studies demonstrate that lipid peroxidation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, human data from prospective studies are limited and contradictory. We used data originally collected in two nested case-control studies of cancer to prospectively evaluate whether systemic levels of lipid peroxidation were associated with incidence of T2D in 1917 women who were 40-70 years old and diabetes-free at baseline. Lipid peroxidation was measured by urinary F2-isoprostanes (F2-IsoPs) and its major metabolite 2,3-dinor-5,6-dihydro-15-F2t-IsoP (F2-IsoP-M) with GC/NICI-MS assays. The Cox regression model was used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for incident T2D. After a median follow-up of 10.1 years, 187 women were diagnosed with T2D. Urinary concentrations of both F2-IsoPs and F2-IsoP-M were significantly higher in T2D cases than in non-cases. Both biomarkers were positively associated with subsequent risk of T2D in multivariable-adjusted Cox models. When further adjusted for body mass index (BMI), the positive association with F2-IsoP-M was attenuated and no longer statistically significant, whereas the association with F2-IsoPs remained (P for overall significance < 0.001). HR for T2D was 1.68 (95% CI: 1.13, 2.51) for the highest vs the lowest quartile of F2-IsoPs. Moreover, this association appeared more pronounced among women with higher BMI. In summary, our study suggests that F2-IsoPs could be of significance in T2D risk prediction among middle-aged and elderly women.

The effects of physical activity on adipokines in individuals with overweight/obesity across the lifespan: A narrative review. Obes Rev 2021; 22:e13090.

Abstract
This narrative review summarizes current knowledge on the effects of physical activity (PA) on adipokine levels in individuals with overweight and obesity. Approximately 90 investigations including randomized control, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies that reported on the effects of a single session of PA (acute) or long-term PA (chronic) on adipokine levels in individuals with overweight/obesity were reviewed. The findings support the notion that there is consensus on the benefits of chronic exercise training-regardless of the mode (resistance vs. aerobic), intensity and cohort (healthy vs. diabetes)-on adipokine levels (such as tumour necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6, adiponectin, visfatin, omentin-1 and leptin). However, several confounding factors (frequency, intensity, time and type of exercise) can alter the magnitude of the effects of an acute exercise session. Available evidence suggests that PA, as a part of routine lifestyle behaviour, improves obesity complications by modulating adipokine levels. However, additional research is needed to help identify the most effective interventions to elicit the most beneficial changes in adipokine levels in individuals with overweight/obesity.

Abstract
Physical inactivity and the onset of menopause increase the risk of cardiovascular disease amongst postmenopausal women. We aim to investigate the effect of resistance training (RT) on plasma levels of selected cytokines, adipokines, myokines, and sex hormones in postmenopausal women with vasomotor symptoms. This was a sub-study of a randomised controlled trial investigating the effects of RT on vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women. Women were randomised to join a 15-week RT program (n = 26) or remain sedentary as control (n = 29). Venous blood samples were taken at week-0 and week-15 for all participants. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and multiple bead assays were used to measure cytokines, adipokines, myokines, and sex hormones in plasma. Plasma measurements of 16 of 33 analytes were within detectable limits. After adjusting for good compliance in the RT group (58% of RT participants), after 15 weeks, significantly lower plasma levels of adiponectin (p < 0.001), lipocalin-2 (p < 0.01) and resistin (p = 0.04) were found. Comparing control and RT women, using change-over-time values, significant increases in median testosterone and sex hormone binding globulin levels were seen in RT women. RT intervention lowers the levels of adipokines, particularly adiponectin, in postmenopausal women with vasomotor symptoms. These results were secondary outcomes of a clinical trial, and further investigations in a larger cohort are essential with the additional control of diet control and body composition analyses. Nevertheless, our study shows RT may be a beneficial intervention in reducing inflammation amongst postmenopausal women.

Metabolic Syndrome, Physical Activity, and Inflammation: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of 110 Circulating Biomarkers in Japanese Adults. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2020; 29:1639-1646. [PMID: 32467351 DOI: 10.1158/1055-9965.epi-19-1513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2019] [Revised: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 05/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a systemic inflammatory state. Low physical activity (PA) could modify this patho-physiology or act as an independent contributor to inflammation. Previous studies of both conditions have identified altered levels of inflammation- and immune-related proteins based on limited sets of candidate markers. METHODS We investigated associations of MetS and low PA with circulating inflammation markers in a stratified random sample of Japanese adults (N = 774, mean age 60.7 years) within the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Study (JPHC) Cohort II. AHA/NHLBI criteria were used to define MetS (19%) and the bottom quartile of PA was considered low. 110 circulating biomarkers, including cytokines, chemokines, and soluble receptors were measured by multiplex bead-based and proximity-extension assays. Associations of MetS and low PA with marker quantiles were adjusted for each other and for age, sex, study site, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and blood sample fasting state by ordinal logistic regression. P values were corrected for FDR. RESULTS MetS was significantly associated with levels of six markers: IL18R1 [odds ratio 2.37; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.45-3.87], CRP (2.07; 95% CI, 1.48-2.90), SAP (2.08; 95% CI, 1.47-2.95), CCL19/MIP3β (2.06; 95% CI, 1.48-2.88), CXCL12/SDF1α+β (0.48; 95% CI, 0.32-0.65), and CCL28 (0.44; 95% CI, 0.27-0.71). Low PA had no significant marker associations. CONCLUSIONS Positively associated markers with MetS are mostly Th1 immune response-related and acute phase proteins, whereas negatively associated markers are generally Th2-related. IMPACT MetS is associated with a broad range of alterations in immune and inflammatory biomarkers that may contribute to risks of various chronic diseases, independent of low PA.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome (LS), is an autosomal dominant disorder predisposing patients to multiple cancers, predominantly colorectal (CRC) and endometrial, and is implicated in 2-4% of all CRC cases. LS is characterized by mutations of four mismatch repair (MMR) genes which code for proteins responsible for recognizing and repairing DNA lesions occurring through multiple mechanisms including oxidative stress (OS). Increased OS can cause DNA mutations and is considered carcinogenic. Due to reduced MMR activity, LS patients have an increased risk of cancer as a result of a decreased ability to recognize and repair DNA lesions caused by OS. Due to its carcinogenic properties, reducing the level of OS may reduce the risk of cancer. Nutritional Nrf2 activators have been shown to reduce the risk of carcinogenesis in the general population through activation of the endogenous antioxidant system. Common nutritional Nrf2 activators include sulforaphane, curcumin, DATS, quercetin, resveratrol, and EGCG. Since LS patients are more susceptible to carcinogenesis caused by OS, it is hypothesized that nutritional Nrf2 activators may have the potential to reduce the risk of cancer in those with LS by modulating OS and inflammation. The purpose of this paper is to review the available evidence in support of this statement.

Abstract
Regular physical activity (PA) has been associated with decreased risk of many chronic diseases and increased longevity among older adults. In addition, ageing has been associated with higher levels of different inflammatory biomarkers while the association between inflammatory biomarkers and PA has remained controversial. The aim of the current investigation was to examine the association between blood biomarkers and objectively assessed PA among a sample of healthy older women with different levels of PA engagement. A total of 81 healthy women were recruited. Study participants were allocated to three groups according to accelerometer-obtained PA data. Body composition was assessed with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Fasting blood samples were collected for the measurement of resistin, leptin, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations. There were no significant differences between groups for resistin, leptin, TNFα and for CRP concentrations; however, higher moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) groups tended to have lower level of blood biomarker concentrations. There was a significant negative relationship between resistin and steps per day. Inverse association between leptin and MVPA was significant after controlling for age. In multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis, steps per day were the strongest independent predictor for resistin, whereas for leptin, TNFα and CRP the strongest independent predictor was whole body fat mass. In conclusion, this study demonstrated negative association between resistin concentration and steps per day. Sedentary time and light PA had no relationship with resistin, leptin, TNFα or CRP concentrations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the relationship between standing, sitting and reclining behaviors and quality of life in postmenopausal women. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study composed of forty postmenopausal women (aged 59.58±5.32) who do not practice regular physical exercise. Body composition was measured using Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and quality of life by the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36). Physical activity level was assessed using an accelerometer (Actigraph GTX3x) and is reported as minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Inclinometer analysis was also measured using this accelerometer model and reported as a weekly percentage of time spent standing, sitting and reclining. All analyses were performed using SPSS 17.0 software with the significance level set at 5%. RESULTS The percentage of time in the standing position was lower among women with poor quality of life (p<0.05). Adjusted analysis (age, years since menopause, percentage of fat mass, MVPA and occupation status) was used to evaluate the relationship between quality of life and accelerometer inclinometer measures. The relationship between time standing and general health status (β=0.353; 95%CI=0.017; 0.377), social function (β=0.429; 95%CI=0.060; 0.396) and overall score (β=0.336; 95%CI=0.015; 0.442) were statistically significant. The relationship between the reclining position and both overall score (β=-0.320; 95%CI=-0.492; 0.006) and emotional aspects (β=-0.337; 95%CI=-0.191; 0.001) showed a tendency to present statistical significance. CONCLUSION In summary, our results suggest that postmenopausal women who spend more time in the standing position have a better overall quality of life regardless of confounders.

Sociodemographic and Lifestyle Determinants of Plasma Oxidative Stress Markers 8-OHdG and F2-Isoprostanes and Associations with Metabolic Syndrome. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2016; 2016:7530820. [PMID: 27006748 PMCID: PMC4781979 DOI: 10.1155/2016/7530820] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2015] [Accepted: 01/18/2016] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Background. Oxidative stress is increasingly important in health research. Therefore, it is necessary to understand which factors determine basal oxidative stress. This study examines the associations of various determinants with markers of oxidative DNA and lipid damage: 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and F2-isoprostanes. Methods. Data are from the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety; 1117 subjects (18-65 years) without a current psychiatric diagnosis. Multivariable regression analyses were conducted with plasma levels of 8-OHdG and F2-isoprostanes (measured by LC/MS-MS) including sociodemographic, lifestyle, and sampling variables. Associations with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and chronic disease were examined. Results. 8-OHdG and F2-isoprostanes were weakly correlated (r = 0.06, p = 0.045). Both were positively associated with age and cotinine (cigarette exposure); 8-OHdG was lower in females and after longer sample storage. F2-isoprostanes were higher in females, alcohol users, and in samples collected in spring and lower in supplement users and those with more education. Both markers were lower in fasting subjects. F2-isoprostanes, not 8-OHdG, were positively associated with MetS. Conclusion. The weak correlation between 8-OHdG and F2-isoprostanes suggests they reflect specific aspects of oxidative stress. Both markers are associated with a range of sociodemographic, lifestyle, and sampling determinants which should be considered in future research. F2-isoprostanes are associated with MetS.

Abstract
OBJECTS To assess the burden of levels of physical activity, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), triacylglycerol and abdominal fat on the immunometabolic profile of postmenopausal women. STUDY DESIGN Forty-nine postmenopausal women [mean age 59.43 (standard deviation 5.61) years] who did not undertake regular physical exercise participated in this study. Body composition was assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and levels of NEFA, tumour necrosis factor-α, adiponectin, insulin and triacylglycerol were assessed using fasting blood samples. The level of physical activity was assessed using an accelerometer (Actigraph GTX3x), and reported as counts/min, time spent undertaking sedentary activities and time spent undertaking moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). The following conditions were considered to be risk factors: (i) sedentary lifestyle (<150min of MVPA per week); (ii) high level (above median) of abdominal fat; and (iii) hypertriacylglycerolaemia (<150mg/dl of triacylglycerol). RESULTS In comparison with active women, sedentary women had higher levels of body fat (%) (p=0.041) and NEFA (p=0.064). Women with higher levels of abdominal fat had impaired insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (p=0.016) and spent more time undertaking sedentary activities (p=0.043). Moreover, the women with two risk factors or more had high levels of NEFA and HOMA-IR (p<0.05), as well as an eight-fold higher risk of a high level of NEFA, independent of age (p<0.05). No significant relationship was found between levels of physical activity, abdominal fat, tumour necrosis factor-α and adiponectin (p>0.05). CONCLUSION Postmenopausal women with a combination of hypertriacylglycerolaemia, a high level of abdominal fat and a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to have metabolic disturbances.
