Abstract
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a potential target to treat obesity and diabetes, dissipating energy as heat. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been associated with obesogenic diets; however, T2D was also reported in lean individuals to be associated with genetic factors. We aimed to investigate the differences between obese and lean models of insulin resistance (IR) and elucidate the mechanism associated with BAT metabolism and dysfunction in different IR animal models: a genetic model (lean GK rats) and obese models (diet-induced obese Wistar rats) at 8 weeks of age fed a high-carbohydrate (HC), high-fat (HF) diet, or high-fat and high-sugar (HFHS) diet for 8 weeks. At 15 weeks of age, BAT glucose uptake was evaluated by 18F-FDG PET under basal (saline administration) or stimulated condition (CL316,243, a selective β3-AR agonist). After CL316, 243 administrations, GK animals showed decreased glucose uptake compared to HC animals. At 16 weeks of age, the animals were euthanized, and the interscapular BAT was dissected for analysis. Histological analyses showed lower cell density in GK rats and higher adipocyte area compared to all groups, followed by HFHS and HF compared to HC. HFHS showed a decreased batokine FGF21 protein level compared to all groups. However, GK animals showed increased expression of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation (CPT1 and CPT2), BAT metabolism (Sirt1 and Pgc1-α), and obesogenic genes (leptin and PAI-1) but decreased gene expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1) compared to other groups. Our data suggest impaired BAT function in obese Wistar and GK rats, with evidence of a whitening process in these animals.

[PMID: 28827209 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmrj.2017.08.437] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2017] [Revised: 07/28/2017] [Accepted: 08/11/2017] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose tissue produces leptin, which is pro-inflammatory, and adiponectin, which has anti-inflammatory properties. Participants with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) have increased body fat and are at increased risk for respiratory illness. OBJECTIVE To assess the associations between leptin and adiponectin with pulmonary function in a chronic SCI cohort. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Veterans Affairs Medical Center. PARTICIPANTS A total of 285 participants (237 men and 48 women) with chronic SCI with mean (standard deviation) injury duration 17.8 (13.2) years from the VA Boston and the community participating in an epidemiologic study assessing factors associated with respiratory health. METHODS Participants (24.6% cervical American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) level A, B, and C; 33.6% other AIS A, B, and C; 41.8% AIS D) provided a blood sample, completed a respiratory health questionnaire, and underwent spirometry. Linear regression methods were used to assess cross-sectional associations between plasma leptin and adiponectin with spirometric measures of pulmonary function adjusted for age, race, gender, and height. Level and severity of SCI, mobility mode, body mass index, smoking, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, chest injury history, laboratory batch, and other potential confounders were also considered. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and FEV1/FVC. RESULTS There was a statistically significant inverse relationship between plasma leptin assessed in quartiles or as a continuous covariate with FEV1 and FVC. In fully adjusted models, each interquartile range (16,214 pg/mL) increase in leptin was associated with a significant decrease in FEV1 (-93.1 mL; 95% confidence interval = -166.2, -20.0) and decrease in FVC (-130.7 mL; 95% confidence interval = -219.4, -42.0). There were no significant associations between leptin and FEV1/FVC or between plasma adiponectin with FEV1, FVC, or FEV1/FVC. CONCLUSION Plasma leptin in individuals with chronic SCI is inversely associated with FEV1 and FVC, independently of SCI level and severity and other covariates. This finding suggests that plasma leptin may contribute to reduced pulmonary function in chronic SCI. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II.

Inflammatory and Adipose Response in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients After a Marathon Cycling Race. Transplant Proc 2017; 48:408-14. [PMID: 27109967 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2016.02.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2015] [Revised: 01/19/2016] [Accepted: 02/02/2016] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Organ transplant recipients frequently have chronic inflammation, with a weighty impact on cardiovascular risk. These patients can benefit from exercise, although the role of intense training is unclear. We evaluated the effect of a 130-km cycling race on inflammatory cytokines and adiponectin levels in transplant recipients. METHODS Circulating interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon (IFN)-γ, and adiponectin were assayed in 35 healthy subjects vs 19 transplant recipients (10 kidney, 8 liver, 1 heart), matched for sex, age, body mass index, and preparation workout. The determinations were performed before the race, at the end, and after 18 to 24 hours. Baseline values of 32 sedentary transplant recipients also were evaluated to explore the possible chronic impact of lifestyle. RESULTS All cyclists had 6- to 8-fold increased IL-6 levels after the race that decreased, without returning to baseline, the day after. Conversely, serum TNF-α and IFN-γ showed a progressive increase starting during physical performance and enduring for the next 18 to 24 hours in healthy subjects, whereas they were unchanged over time in cyclists with transplants. In transplant recipients who did not perform exercise, all of the analytes were significantly higher in comparison to basal levels of physically active subjects. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that clinically stable and properly trained transplant recipients can safely perform and progressively benefit from exercise, even at a competitive level. The changes in inflammation parameters were temporary and parallel with those of the healthy subjects. The comparison with sedentary transplant recipients revealed an overall amelioration of inflammatory indexes as a possible effect of regular physical activity on systemic inflammation.

Ovalle F. Cardiovascular implications of antihyperglycemic therapies for type 2 diabetes. Clin Ther 2011; 33:393-407. [PMID: 21635987 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinthera.2011.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/30/2011] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), including insulin resistance/hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, overweight/obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, are often present in varying combinations in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Patients with a clustering of these risk factors, termed the metabolic syndrome, are at greater risk for CVD than are patients with only a single risk factor. Although glycemic control is the central feature of type 2 DM management, patients require an individualized approach to therapy that takes their other CVD risk factors into account. OBJECTIVE This review examined the effects of antidiabetes therapy on glycemic control, as well as its potential to affect body weight, serum lipids, and blood pressure (BP), and thus CVD risk. METHODS Information was obtained by searching the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases from 1995 through March 2010. The search terms included type 2 DM, metabolic syndrome, CV complications of type 2 DM, and therapy for type 2 DM. Articles that described relevant details of the metabolic syndrome, CV complications of type 2 DM, and effects of antidiabetes therapy on glycosylated hemoglobin, body weight, serum lipids, and BP were selected for in-depth review. Only English language publications were reviewed. Clinical trials, meta-analyses, and review articles on the key words were preferentially selected for review and analysis. Non-English language publications, case reports, letters to the editor, and similar types of publications were excluded. RESULTS Although all approved antidiabetes agents lowered glucose, their effect on other CV risk factors, such as BP, lipids, and weight, differed significantly. Therapy with insulin, the sulfonylureas, and the thiazolidinediones was associated with weight gain. Metformin and the dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 inhibitors were generally considered weight neutral, whereas the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and amylin agonists were associated with weight loss. Metformin, sulfonylureas, thiazolidinedioness, and dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 inhibitors had modest effects on serum lipid levels and BP. The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists generally had beneficial effects on serum lipid levels and systolic and diastolic BP. CONCLUSION A wide variety of agents were available to aid glycemic control in patients with type 2 DM. These agents had variable effects on known CV risk factors that might be present in this patient population, including excess body weight, elevated BP, and increased serum lipids. Some of the newer agents improved glycemic control while also having potentially favorable effects on these CV risk factors. The impact of various agents on known CV risk factors should be considered when selecting a therapeutic regimen.
