Abstract
Globally, burns are a significant cause of injury that can cause substantial acute trauma as well as lead to increased incidence of chronic comorbidity and disease. To date, research has primarily focused on the systemic response to severe injury, with little in the literature reported on the impact of nonsevere injuries (<15% total burn surface area; TBSA). To elucidate the metabolic consequences of a nonsevere burn injury, longitudinal plasma was collected from adults (n = 35) who presented at hospital with a nonsevere burn injury at admission, and at 6 week follow up. A cross-sectional baseline sample was also collected from nonburn control participants (n = 14). Samples underwent multiplatform metabolic phenotyping using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to quantify 112 lipoprotein and glycoprotein signatures and 852 lipid species from across 20 subclasses. Multivariate data modeling (orthogonal projections to latent structures-discriminate analysis; OPLS-DA) revealed alterations in lipoprotein and lipid metabolism when comparing the baseline control to hospital admission samples, with the phenotypic signature found to be sustained at follow up. Univariate (Mann-Whitney U) testing and OPLS-DA indicated specific increases in GlycB (p-value < 1.0e-4), low density lipoprotein-2 subfractions (variable importance in projection score; VIP > 6.83e-1) and monoacyglyceride (20:4) (p-value < 1.0e-4) and decreases in circulating anti-inflammatory high-density lipoprotein-4 subfractions (VIP > 7.75e-1), phosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylglycerols, phosphatidylinositols, and phosphatidylserines. The results indicate a persistent systemic metabolic phenotype that occurs even in cases of a nonsevere burn injury. The phenotype is indicative of an acute inflammatory profile that continues to be sustained postinjury, suggesting an impact on systems health beyond the site of injury. The phenotypes contained metabolic signatures consistent with chronic inflammatory states reported to have an elevated incidence postburn injury. Such phenotypic signatures may provide patient stratification opportunities, to identify individual responses to injury, personalize intervention strategies, and improve acute care, reducing the risk of chronic comorbidity.

Differential distribution of plasma apoA-I and apoB levels and clinical significance of apoB/apoA-I ratio in ischemic stroke subtypes. Front Neurol 2024; 15:1398830. [PMID: 38978811 PMCID: PMC11228298 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1398830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and purpose Ischemic stroke (IS) is classified into clinical subtypes and likely influenced by various lipid components. Nevertheless, the roles of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), apolipoprotein B (apoB), and apoB/apoA-I ratio in different IS subtypes remain underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the differential distribution of plasma apoA-I and apoB levels among IS subtypes and to evaluate the predictive value of the apoB/apoA-I ratio in assessing IS subtypes and disease severity. Methods In this study, 406 IS patients were categorized into three IS-subtypes based on clinical manifestations and imaging assessment, including intracranial atherosclerosis-related IS patients (ICAS, n = 193), extracranial atherosclerosis-related IS patients (ECAS, n = 111), and small artery occlusion-related IS patients (SAO, n = 102). Plasma apoA-I and apoB levels were measured upon hospital admission. Random forest (RF) models were performed to assess predictive values of these apolipoproteins apoB, apoA-I and their ratio in assessing IS subtype stratification and disease severity. Results Serum apoA-I levels were significantly lower in ICAS compared to ECAS and SAO patients (p < 0.0001), while apoB levels were higher in ICAS patients (p < 0.0001). The apoB/apoA-I ratio was significantly higher in ICAS compared to ECAS and SAO patients (p < 0.0001). Correlation analyses found a significant correlation between the apoB/apoA-I ratio and conventional lipid components. Additionally, RF models and plots of variable importance and distribution of minimal depth revealed that the apoB/apoA-I ratio played the most influential predictor in predicting IS subtypes and stenosis severity. Conclusion Our study shows the differential distribution of apoA-I and apoB IS subtypes and reveals the significance of the apoB/apoA-I ratio in assessing IS subtypes and arterial stenosis severity. Further studies are warranted to validate these findings and enhance their clinical applicability.

Abstract
Genetic predisposition and dietary factors can impact cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Two important markers in assessing CVD risk are apolipoprotein (apo) B and apolipoprotein A1 plasma levels. These markers are measured as a ratio, with a high apoB:apoA1 ratio associated with increased CVD risk. Dietary and lifestyle recommendations are the cornerstone of managing primary and secondary CVD risk-mitigation strategies. One way to assess the impact of various dietary and lifestyle interventions on CVD risk is to evaluate the changes in CVD risk markers, such as apoB, apoA1, and apoB:apoA1 ratio. Various human studies have demonstrated the impact of dietary, macronutrient, and micronutrient interventions on apoB and apoA1 status. This review aims to elucidate dietary, macronutrient, micronutrient, and nutrigenetic considerations for impacting apoB and apoA1 levels. A low-carbohydrate, high-saturated-fat diet, low fiber intake, low vitamin and mineral intake, and zinc and iron deficiency are associated with an elevated apoB:apoA1 ratio. The Mediterranean diet, vegan diet, fermented dairy products, lower sugar intake, higher protein intake, higher polyunsaturated fat intake, and an omega-3-rich diet are associated with a decreased apoB:apoA1 ratio. Micronutrients associated with a decreased apoB:apoA1 ratio include vitamin D sufficiency, increased serum vitamin C, and magnesium. Variants in the APOE, APOA1, and FADS2 genes may alter the apoB:apoA1 ratio in response to various dietary interventions. When accounting for factors that may favorably alter the apoB:apoA1 ratio, researchers should consider a healthy diet sufficient in polyunsaturated fats, vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, and lower excess sugars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Apolipoproteins (APOs) have emerged as significant players in lipid metabolism that affects the risk of chronic disease. However, the impact of circulating APO concentrations on premature death remains undetermined. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the associations of serum APOs with all-cause, cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related, and cancer-related mortality. METHODS We included 340,737 participants who had serum APO measurements from the UK Biobank. Restricted cubic splines and multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess the associations between APOs and all-cause and cause-specific mortality by computing hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Based on 1-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design, including 398,457 participants of White ancestry who had genotyping data from the UK Biobank, we performed instrumental variable analysis with 2-stage least squares regression to assess the association between genetically predicted APOs and mortality. RESULTS After adjusting for potential confounders including high-density and low-density lipoprotein particles, we observed nonlinear inverse relationships of APOA1 with all-cause, CVD-related, and cancer-related mortality (P-nonlinear < 0.001). By contrast, positive relationships were observed for APOB and all-cause (P-nonlinear < 0.001), CVD-related (P-linear < 0.001), and cancer-related (P-linear = 0.03) mortality. MR analysis showed consistent results, except that the association between APOB and cancer mortality was null. Furthermore, both observational and MR analyses found an inverse association between APOA1 and lung cancer-related mortality (HR comparing extreme deciles: 0.46; 95% CI: 0.26, 0.80; and HR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.63, 0.97, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that circulating APOA1 has potential beneficial effects on all-cause, CVD-related, and lung cancer-related death risk, whereas APOB may confer detrimental effects on all-cause and CVD-related death risk.

Abstract
Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that diabetes amplifies the effects of dyslipidemia as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). A better understanding of lipid profiles is important for lipid-lowering treatment and reducing cardiovascular risk in populations with diabetes. To describe the dyslipidemia patterns in patient with and without diabetes in the adult US population. Data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011 to 2016 was analyzed. Surprisingly, 49.9% of the people with diabetes have both normal triglycerides (TGs) and normal high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). 33.4% of the people with diabetes have elevated TGs and 36.1% of them have low HDL-C. Only 19.3% of them have both elevated TGs and low HDL-C. Among people without diabetes, 67.5% have normal TGs and normal HDL-C, 28.0% have elevated TGs, 23.9% have low HDL-C and 8.8% have both elevated TGs and low HDL-C. The differences in the proportions of individuals with both elevated TGs and low HDL-C between the diabetic group and the nondiabetic group were more obvious in females: 7.7% in women without diabetes and 22.7% in women with diabetes. The proportion of individuals in the TG↑HDL-C↓group in the population with diabetes exhibited a decreasing trend in age groups > 30 years old, and the 30 to 40 years group of individuals with diabetes had the highest proportion of atherogenic dyslipidemia. The low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) to apoB ratio is generally lower in people with diabetes, with the lowest level in the TG↑HDL-C↓group. Dyslipidemia patterns in diabetes patients are highly heterogeneous. Deep phenotyping sub-groups of dyslipidemia is warranted to identify higher-risk patients for evaluation of non-LDL-C therapies. This explained at least partially of the difficult search for novel therapies in the post-LDL-C era.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of obesity in Saudi Arabia is a major contributor to the nation's high levels of cardiometabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. To assess the impact of obesity on the diabetic metabolic phenotype presented in young Saudi Arabian adults, participants (n = 289, aged 18-40 years) were recruited and stratified into four groups: healthy weight (BMI 18.5-24.99 kg/m2) with (n = 57) and without diabetes (n = 58) or overweight/obese (BMI > 24.99 kg/m2) with (n = 102) and without diabetes (n = 72). Distinct plasma metabolic phenotypes associated with high BMI and diabetes were identified using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and ultraperformance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. Increased plasma glucose and dysregulated lipoproteins were characteristics of obesity in individuals with and without diabetes, but the obesity-associated lipoprotein phenotype was partially masked in individuals with diabetes. Although there was little difference between diabetics and nondiabetics in the global plasma LDL cholesterol and phospholipid concentration, the distribution of lipoprotein particles was altered in diabetics with a shift toward denser and more atherogenic LDL5 and LDL6 particles, which was amplified in the presence of obesity. Further investigation is warranted in larger Middle Eastern populations to explore the dysregulation of metabolism driven by interactions between obesity and diabetes in young adults.

Abstract
We herein report three cases of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome successfully treated with low-density lipoprotein apheresis (LDL-A). All patients were treated with a combination of steroids, cyclosporine, and LDL-A. In all cases, the serum concentrations of LDL, total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides were significantly lowered following LDL-A administration. Furthermore, the estimated LDL receptor activity increased, while both serum LDL and total cholesterol levels decreased, suggesting that LDL-A increases LDL receptor activity by driving changes in serum cholesterol concentration. This case series suggests that LDL-A increases LDL receptor activity, which may improve the intracellular uptake of cyclosporine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maternal physiological hypercholesterolemia (MPH) occurs in pregnancy for a proper fetal development. When cholesterol increases over the physiological range, maternal supraphysiological hypercholesterolemia (MSPH) is described, a condition underdiagnosed by a lack of evidence showing its biological and clinical relevance. AIM To determine if MSPH associates with maternal vascular dysfunction, along with changes in the composition and function of maternal HDL leading to increased cardiovascular risk. METHODS This study included 57 women at term of pregnancy in which a lipid profile was determined. RESULTS Maternal total cholesterol (TC) and LDL but not HDL were increased in MSPH women. The isolated HDL from a subgroup of MSPH women had a lower protein abundance and a reduced activity of the antioxidant enzyme PON1; however, an increased antioxidant capacity compared to MPH was observed, along with higher serum levels of α-tocopherol. Moreover, HDL from a subgroup of MSPH women had a lower capacity to induce NO synthesis in endothelial cells compared to MPH. In the circulation, we observed a reduced total antioxidant capacity and augmented levels of soluble VCAM, ApoB, ApoCII, ApoCIII, IL-10, and IL-12p70, as well as the cardiovascular risk ratio ApoB/ApoAI, compared to MPH women. CONCLUSION MSPH women present dysfunctional HDL and increased atherogenic cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract
Introduction Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one cause of death worldwide, in this case, acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or acute myocardial infarction (AMI) that developed from coronary artery disease (CAD). Several risk factors contribute to AMI. Non-modifiable risk factors are age, sex, race, and family history. Modifiable risk factors include dyslipidemia, hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus, as well as recent factors that are considered more specific such as homocysteine, lipoprotein a [Lp(a)], high sensitivity C- reactive protein (hs-CRP), and apolipoprotein. This study aimed to determine the role of apolipoprotein as a risk factor for STEMI. Methods This study combines three epidemiological designs: a descriptive and cross-sectional correlative study with 62 STEMI patients at the National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita and a comparative study of 62 STEMI patients and 20 non-ACS CAD patients at the Universitas Indonesia Hospital. Results and conclusion The descriptive study showed the level of apoB 80.71 ± 28.3, apoA1 104.93 ± 27.8, apoB/apoA1 ratio 0.78 ± 0.22, and Lp(a) 6.85 (1.0-48.1). ApoB moderately correlates with LDLc (p < 0.001; r = 0.571). ApoA1 weakly correlates with HDLc (p = 0.005; r = 0.379). In comparative study, there were significant differences between the STEMI and non-ACS CAD groups on apoA1 (104.93 ± 27.8 vs. 137.48 ± 26.46), apoB/apoA1 ratio (0.78 ± 0.22 vs. 0.59 ± 0.15), and hs-CRP (2.88 [0.4-215] vs. 0.73 [0.15-8.9]). Multivariate analysis showed that the most significant risk factors for STEMI in this study were hypertension for modifiable factors and apoA1 for apolipoprotein. The apoA1 and apoB/apoA1 ratio examination can be suggested for people who have experienced plaque formation and are at risk for myocardial infarction.

The Impact of Acute Nutritional Interventions on the Plasma Proteome. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2023; 108:2087-2098. [PMID: 36658456 PMCID: PMC10348471 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgad031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 01/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Humans respond profoundly to changes in diet, while nutrition and environment have a great impact on population health. It is therefore important to deeply characterize the human nutritional responses. OBJECTIVE Endocrine parameters and the metabolome of human plasma are rapidly responding to acute nutritional interventions such as caloric restriction or a glucose challenge. It is less well understood whether the plasma proteome would be equally dynamic, and whether it could be a source of corresponding biomarkers. METHODS We used high-throughput mass spectrometry to determine changes in the plasma proteome of i) 10 healthy, young, male individuals in response to 2 days of acute caloric restriction followed by refeeding; ii) 200 individuals of the Ely epidemiological study before and after a glucose tolerance test at 4 time points (0, 30, 60, 120 minutes); and iii) 200 random individuals from the Generation Scotland study. We compared the proteomic changes detected with metabolome data and endocrine parameters. RESULTS Both caloric restriction and the glucose challenge substantially impacted the plasma proteome. Proteins responded across individuals or in an individual-specific manner. We identified nutrient-responsive plasma proteins that correlate with changes in the metabolome, as well as with endocrine parameters. In particular, our study highlights the role of apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1), a small, understudied apolipoprotein that was affected by caloric restriction and dominated the response to glucose consumption and differed in abundance between individuals with and without type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSION Our study identifies APOC1 as a dominant nutritional responder in humans and highlights the interdependency of acute nutritional response proteins and the endocrine system.

Elevated ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio is associated with poor outcome in acute ischemic stroke. J Clin Neurosci 2023; 107:138-143. [PMID: 36402710 DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2022.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 10/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Apolipoproteins are known atherogenic factors that play important roles in many mechanisms related to acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, it is unclear whether the ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio is related to the prognosis of patients with AIS. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study in the Department of Neurology, Yangpu Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University and investigated the association between ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio and poor outcomes at 3 months of AIS. RESULTS 1,247 patients that met the eligibility criteria were enrolled in our study. We found that ApoA-Ι (Adjusted odds ratios (adjOR) 0.529, 95 %CI 0.327-0.855), ApoB (adjOR 3.015, 95 %CI 1.746-5.207), and ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio (adjOR 3.986, 95 %CI 2.220-7.155) were independently associated with poor outcomes in acute ischemic stroke. During subgroup analysis, the ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio was more likely associated with poor AIS outcomes in males and patients younger than 80 with SAO(Small Artery Occlusion) and no history of diabetes or statin use. Restricted cubic spline analyses explored the correlation between poor outcomes and ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratio. CONCLUSIONS Higher ApoB, lower ApoA-Ι, and higher ApoB/ApoA-Ι ratios were independently associated with poor outcomes in AIS. However, ApoB and ApoA-Ι were not related to hemorrhagic transformation in AIS.

Abstract
PurposeWe aimed to analyze the correlation between overweight and obesity-related indicators and cardiovascular risk predictors in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and to evaluate their mutual predictive properties.MethodsA total of 103 patients with FH included from 2004 to 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to assess the correlation between overweight and obesity-related indicators and cardiovascular risk predictors in FH patients. Subject operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze their reciprocal predictive performance.Results(1) Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) (β = 0.020) and ApoB/ApoA1 Ratio (BAR) (β = 0.015) were independently correlated with body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.05); AIP (β = 1.176) was independently correlated with waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (P < 0.01); AIP (β = 1.575), BAR (β = 0.661) and atherogenic coefficient (AC) (β = 0.427) were independently correlated with waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) (P < 0.05). (2) The area under the ROC (AUC) for overweight corresponding to AIP, BAR, and AC were 0.695 (95% CI = 0.593–0.797, P < 0.01), 0.660 (95% CI = 0.555–0.766, P < 0.01), and 0.632 (95% CI = 0.525–0.740, P < 0.05), respectively; and AUCs for central obesity corresponding to AIP, BAR and AC were 0.757 (95% CI = 0.656–0.857, P < 0.001), 0.654 (95% CI = 0.536–0.771, P < 0.05) and 0.651 (95% CI = 0.538–0.764, P < 0.05), respectively. The AUCs for moderate risk of AIP corresponding to BMI, WHR, and WHtR were 0.709 (95% CI = 0.608–0.811, P < 0.001), 0.773 (95% CI = 0.678–0.867, P < 0.001), 0.739 (95% CI = 0.641–0.836, P < 0.001), respectively, and BMI, WHR and WHtR corresponded to an AUC of 0.691 (95% CI = 0.585–0.797, P < 0.01), 0.734 (95% CI = 0.632–0.835, P < 0.001), and 0.706 (95% CI = 0.603–0.810, P < 0.01) for high risk of AIP, respectively.ConclusionAIP has independent positive linear correlation with indicators related to overweight and obesity in FH patients; AIP has good predictive performance for overweight and obesity in FH patients, and WHR has good performance for identifying moderate and high risk of AIP in FH patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is a cardiovascular disease, highly predictable, and associated with different atherogenic indices (AI) in adults. However, such indexes in the pediatric population are far less explored. The objective of this study was to evaluate the AI and the cardiovascular factors in the pediatric population in the South-Southeast of México. METHODS A total of 481 children between 2 and 17 years old were recruited. Anthropometric evaluation, blood pressure (BP), lipid profile, apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) were measured, and AI were calculated. The population was grouped by age, binary logistic regression analysis was performed to analysis for associations of AI and cardiovascular risk factors. Sensibility and specificity of AI to detect metabolic alteration were evaluated for curve ROC. RESULTS The atherogenic risk presented a high prevalence in the pediatric population, such as LDL-c/ApoB (86.9%), AIP (78%) and AC (36.6%). Preschoolers showed a higher risk of ApoB/ApoA-I and ApoB/LDL-c, while adolescents have a high risk of AIP. CRI-I and AC were associated with elements of lipid profile and body mass index (BMI). ROC curves analysis shows that AIP is the best index evaluating metabolic syndrome (MS) (0.87) and dyslipidemia (0.91). CONCLUSION Such pediatric population showed a high risk of AI, mainly by LDL-c/ApoB and AIP. The BMI was the cardiovascular risk factors most frequently related to AI, AIP is the best index for detecting cases of MS and dyslipidemia. This is the first study carried out in the pediatric population from the South-Southeast of Mexico that evaluated the AI.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia is an important independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Specifically, apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), and the ApoB/A1 ratio have been linked to CVD. We conducted a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of two Korean cohorts containing a total of 12,924 patients to identify novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with ApoA1 and ApoB levels and the ApoB/A1 ratio. Additionally, an expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis were performed. The statistically significant eQTL, DEG, and Gene Ontology (GO) results were used to explore the predicted interaction networks and retrieve the interacting genes and proteins. We identified three novel SNPs (rs11066280, p = 3.46 × 10−21; rs1227162, p = 2.98 × 10−15; rs73216931, p = 5.62 × 10−9) associated with ApoA1. SNP rs73216931 was an eQTL for KMT5A in the pancreas and whole blood. The network analysis revealed that HECTD4 and MYL2:LINC1405 are associated with AKT1. Our in silico analysis of ApoA1 genetic variants revealed heart muscle-related signals. ApoA1 also correlated positively with vitamin D, and genes associated with ApoA1 and vitamin D were found. Our data imply that more research into ApoA1 is needed to understand the links between dyslipidemia and CVD and vitamin D and CVD.

Abstract
Abnormal metabolism of substances in the body can result in metabolic disorders which include obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, liver disease, or cancer. Foods rich in antioxidants can help to prevent and treat various types of disorders. Chokeberry fruits are rich in polyphenols, especially cyanidins, and therefore, can show a beneficial health effect. The aim of this study was to summarize and systematize reports about the effects of chokeberry on various metabolic parameters. Studies from 2000 to 2021, published in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases, were reviewed. The review of studies shows that chokeberry may have a positive effect in dyslipidemia and hypertension and may increase the body’s antioxidant defense mechanisms. The anti-inflammatory effect, in turn, may translate into a reduction in the risk of metabolic disorders over a longer period of use. Changes in glucose levels were reported by studies in which the intervention lasted more than 10 weeks in patients with carbohydrate metabolism disorders. The effects of protecting the liver, inhibiting platelet aggregation, lowering uric acid levels, and having a protective effect on the kidneys require additional confirmation in human clinical trials. Consumption of chokeberry fruit did not impact on anthropometric measurements; however, it seems that chokeberry fruit can be recommended in many metabolic disorders due to the richness of bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Yellow yeast rice (YYR) is a Korean functional food fermented with Aspergillus terreus and contains monacolin K, a cholesterol-lowering ingredient. However, the effects of YYR on lipid metabolism alterations have not been reported until now. In this study, we performed a mass spectrometry-based lipidomic analysis of plasma samples from subjects (31 from the YYR group and 27 from the placebo group) with LDL-C higher than 130 mg dL-1 to investigate the effects of the intake of YYR. Lipidomic profiling showed that the levels of sphingomyelin (SM) were significantly decreased in the YYR intake group compared with the placebo group. The SM level in the YYR intake group showed a significant association with the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio (p = 0.004, r = 0.503), an indicator of the effect of lipid-lowering therapy. This study suggests that global lipidomic profiling could be used to identify changes in lipid metabolism induced by YYR intake and provide information that these lipid changes are associated with improved hypercholesterolemia.

Med Sci Monit 2022; 28:e936425. [PMID: 35567295 PMCID: PMC9116146 DOI: 10.12659/msm.936425] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The serum apolipoprotein B/A1 ratio (APOB/APOA1) has been shown to predict cardiovascular events, whereas the effect of the APOB/APOA1 ratio on atrial fibrillation (AF) is less known. We investigated the association between the APOB/APOA1 ratio and AF by sex in 920 patients from China. MATERIAL AND METHODS We reviewed clinical data on 1840 hospitalized patients, including 920 patients with AF (male/female: 460/460, age: 68.62±10.36 years) and 920 age- and sex-matched patients without AF with sinus rhythm in China between January 2019 and September 2021. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to investigate the correlation between APOB/APOA1 ratio and AF-related metabolic factors. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Low serum APOB/APOA1 ratios in male and female patients were significantly associated with AF after adjusting for confounding factors (OR 0.159, 95% CI 0.058-0.432, P<0.05). Serum APOB/APOA1 ratio was positively correlated with triglyceride (TG) (r=0.146, P<0.05) and total cholesterol (TC) (r=0.227, P<0.05) and was negatively correlated with albumin (ALB) (r=-0.128, P<0.05) and prealbumin (PAB) (r=-0.107, P<0.05). There was no significant difference of APOB/APOA1 ratio in different subtypes, complications, and statin use in patients with AF (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS A low serum APOB/APOA1 ratio in male and female patients from China was significantly related to AF. This finding implies that a low serum APOB/APOA1 ratio may be associated with the causes of AF. Further studies are needed to determine causalities.

Ilich JZ, Liu PY, Shin H, Kim Y, Chi Y. Cardiometabolic Indices after Weight Loss with Calcium or Dairy Foods: Secondary Analyses from a Randomized Trial with Overweight/Obese Postmenopausal Women. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14051082. [PMID: 35268057 PMCID: PMC8912560 DOI: 10.3390/nu14051082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of dairy foods and calcium/vitamin D supplements in cardiometabolic diseases is unknown. The objective of this secondary analysis is to investigate cardiometabolic risk factors changes after a 6-month weight-loss intervention in overweight/obese postmenopausal women divided in three groups: Ca+vitamin D supplements (S); low-fat dairy foods (D; 4−5 servings/day); or control/placebo pills (C), as complements to hypocaloric diets. The original study focused on bone/body composition. This analysis included blood pressure (BP), and serum triglycerides, lipids (including apoproteins Apo1 and ApoB), adipokines, and C-reactive protein in n = 97 participants who finished with complete data points. Systolic BP decreased 5.1%, 4.8%, and 1.8% in S, D, and C groups, respectively (p < 0.05 for S and D vs. baseline and vs. C at 6 months). Reduction in triglycerides and ratio of total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL-C) was the highest in S, while the reduction in TC and LDL-C was the highest in D group (all p < 0.05). Leptin and ApoB significantly decreased and adiponectin and ApoA1 increased in all groups. In conclusion, although the C group’s participants experienced an improvement in some of the cardiometabolic indices with weight loss, those in the S and D groups showed significantly better results in most of the outcomes, indicating the beneficial effects of low-fat dairy foods and/or Ca+vitamin D intake as complements to a hypocaloric diet.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 infection causes a significant reduction in lipoprotein-bound serum phospholipids give rise to supramolecular phospholipid composite (SPC) signals observed in diffusion and relaxation edited 1H NMR spectra. To characterize the chemical structural components and compartmental location of SPC and to understand further its possible diagnostic properties, we applied a Statistical HeterospectroscopY in n-dimensions (SHY-n) approach. This involved statistically linking a series of orthogonal measurements made on the same samples, using independent analytical techniques and instruments, to identify the major individual phospholipid components giving rise to the SPC signals. Thus, an integrated model for SARS-CoV-2 positive and control adults is presented that relates three identified diagnostic subregions of the SPC signal envelope (SPC1, SPC2, and SPC3) generated using diffusion and relaxation edited (DIRE) NMR spectroscopy to lipoprotein and lipid measurements obtained by in vitro diagnostic NMR spectroscopy and ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). The SPC signals were then correlated sequentially with (a) total phospholipids in lipoprotein subfractions; (b) apolipoproteins B100, A1, and A2 in different lipoproteins and subcompartments; and (c) MS-measured total serum phosphatidylcholines present in the NMR detection range (i.e., PCs: 16.0,18.2; 18.0,18.1; 18.2,18.2; 16.0,18.1; 16.0,20.4; 18.0,18.2; 18.1,18.2), lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs: 16.0 and 18.2), and sphingomyelin (SM 22.1). The SPC3/SPC2 ratio correlated strongly (r = 0.86) with the apolipoprotein B100/A1 ratio, a well-established marker of cardiovascular disease risk that is markedly elevated during acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. These data indicate the considerable potential of using a serum SPC measurement as a metric of cardiovascular risk based on a single NMR experiment. This is of specific interest in relation to understanding the potential for increased cardiovascular risk in COVID-19 patients and risk persistence in post-acute COVID-19 syndrome (PACS).

Abstract
COVID-19 is a systemic infectious disease that may affect many organs, accompanied by a measurable metabolic dysregulation. The disease is also associated with significant mortality, particularly among the elderly, patients with comorbidities, and solid organ transplant recipients. Yet, the largest segment of the patient population is asymptomatic, and most other patients develop mild to moderate symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Here, we have used NMR metabolomics to characterize plasma samples from a cohort of the abovementioned group of COVID-19 patients (n = 69), between 3 and 10 months after diagnosis, and compared them with a set of reference samples from individuals never infected by the virus (n = 71). Our results indicate that half of the patient population show abnormal metabolism including porphyrin levels and altered lipoprotein profiles six months after the infection, while the other half show little molecular record of the disease. Remarkably, most of these patients are asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 patients, and we hypothesize that this is due to a metabolic reflection of the immune response stress.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death around the world. According to the studies, apolipoproteins A1 and B100 play crucial role in CVD development and progression. Also, findings have indicated the positive role of vitamin D on these factors. Thus, we conducted the present meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to demonstrate the impact of vitamin D supplementation on apolipoproteins A1 and B100 levels in adults. PubMed and Scopus databases and Google Scholar were searched up to 21 December 2020. Relevant articles were screened, extracted, and assessed for quality based on the Cochrane collaboration's risk of bias tool. Data analysis conducted by random-effect model and expressed by standardized mean difference (SMD). The heterogeneity between studies was assessed by I-squared (I2) test. Subgroups and sensitivity Analyses were also conducted. Seven RCTs were identified investigating the impact of vitamin D on Apo A1 levels and six on Apo B100 levels. The findings showed the insignificant effect of vitamin D supplementation on Apo A1 (SMD=0.26 mg/dL; 95% confidence interval (CI), -0.10, 0.61; P = 0.155) and Apo B100 (standardized mean difference (SMD)=-0.06 mg/dL; 95% CI, -0.24, 0.12; P = 0.530) in adults. There was a significant between-study heterogeneity in Apo A1 (I2=89.3%, P < 0.001) and Apo B100 (I2 = 57.1%, P = 0.030). However, significant increase in Apo A1 in daily dosage of vitamin D (SMD=0.56 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.02, 1.11; P = 0.044) and ≤12 weeks of supplementation duration (SMD=0.71 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.08, 1.34; P = 0.028) was observed. No significant effects of vitamin D on Apo A1 and Apo B100 levels after subgroup analysis by mean age, gender, study population, dosage and duration of study. Overall, daily vitamin D supplementation and ≤12 weeks of supplementation might have beneficial effects in increasing Apo A1 levels, however, future high-quality trials considering these a primary outcome are required.

Abstract
Quantitative plasma lipoprotein and metabolite profiles were measured on an autonomous community of the Basque Country (Spain) cohort consisting of hospitalized COVID-19 patients (n = 72) and a matched control group (n = 75) and a Western Australian (WA) cohort consisting of (n = 17) SARS-CoV-2 positives and (n = 20) healthy controls using 600 MHz 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Spanish samples were measured in two laboratories using one-dimensional (1D) solvent-suppressed and T2-filtered methods with in vitro diagnostic quantification of lipoproteins and metabolites. SARS-CoV-2 positive patients and healthy controls from both populations were modeled and cross-projected to estimate the biological similarities and validate biomarkers. Using the top 15 most discriminatory variables enabled construction of a cross-predictive model with 100% sensitivity and specificity (within populations) and 100% sensitivity and 82% specificity (between populations). Minor differences were observed between the control metabolic variables in the two cohorts, but the lipoproteins were virtually indistinguishable. We observed highly significant infection-related reductions in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfraction 4 phospholipids, apolipoproteins A1 and A2,that have previously been associated with negative regulation of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. The Spanish and Australian diagnostic SARS-CoV-2 biomarkers were mathematically and biologically equivalent, demonstrating that NMR-based technologies are suitable for the study of the comparative pathology of COVID-19 via plasma phenotyping.

Abstract
We present a multivariate metabotyping approach to assess the functional recovery of nonhospitalized COVID-19 patients and the possible biochemical sequelae of "Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome", colloquially known as long-COVID. Blood samples were taken from patients ca. 3 months after acute COVID-19 infection with further assessment of symptoms at 6 months. Some 57% of the patients had one or more persistent symptoms including respiratory-related symptoms like cough, dyspnea, and rhinorrhea or other nonrespiratory symptoms including chronic fatigue, anosmia, myalgia, or joint pain. Plasma samples were quantitatively analyzed for lipoproteins, glycoproteins, amino acids, biogenic amines, and tryptophan pathway intermediates using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Metabolic data for the follow-up patients (n = 27) were compared with controls (n = 41) and hospitalized severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS-CoV-2 positive patients (n = 18, with multiple time-points). Univariate and multivariate statistics revealed variable patterns of functional recovery with many patients exhibiting residual COVID-19 biomarker signatures. Several parameters were persistently perturbed, e.g., elevated taurine (p = 3.6 × 10-3 versus controls) and reduced glutamine/glutamate ratio (p = 6.95 × 10-8 versus controls), indicative of possible liver and muscle damage and a high energy demand linked to more generalized tissue repair or immune function. Some parameters showed near-complete normalization, e.g., the plasma apolipoprotein B100/A1 ratio was similar to that of healthy controls but significantly lower (p = 4.2 × 10-3) than post-acute COVID-19 patients, reflecting partial reversion of the metabolic phenotype (phenoreversion) toward the healthy metabolic state. Plasma neopterin was normalized in all follow-up patients, indicative of a reduction in the adaptive immune activity that has been previously detected in active SARS-CoV-2 infection. Other systemic inflammatory biomarkers such as GlycA and the kynurenine/tryptophan ratio remained elevated in some, but not all, patients. Correlation analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), and orthogonal-partial least-squares discriminant analysis (O-PLS-DA) showed that the follow-up patients were, as a group, metabolically distinct from controls and partially comapped with the acute-phase patients. Significant systematic metabolic differences between asymptomatic and symptomatic follow-up patients were also observed for multiple metabolites. The overall metabolic variance of the symptomatic patients was significantly greater than that of nonsymptomatic patients for multiple parameters (χ2p = 0.014). Thus, asymptomatic follow-up patients including those with post-acute COVID-19 Syndrome displayed a spectrum of multiple persistent biochemical pathophysiology, suggesting that the metabolic phenotyping approach may be deployed for multisystem functional assessment of individual post-acute COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Background Apolipoprotein B is considered the primary protein constituent of low-density lipoprotein. LDL contains variable quantities of cholesterol, but each lipoprotein contains a single ApoB protein. Thus, ApoB is a better index for the LDL circulation if compared to LDL cholesterol. On the contrary, apolipoprotein A-1 is a main structural protein of high-density lipoprotein. It has a major role in reversing cholesterol flow and cellular cholesterol homeostasis once detected. The aim of the study is to measure apo B/apo A-1 ratio in patients with acute coronary syndrome and assess its relationship with the severity of CAD. A total of 90 patients were enrolled in the study and subdivided into 3 groups: 30 patients of STEMI, 30 patients of NSTEMI, and 30 patients presented with unstable angina. Serum levels of apolipoprotein A-1 and apolipoprotein B were properly measured upon admission, and apo B/apo A-1 ratio was calculated. Results Both of Apo B and Apo B/Apo A1 ratio correlated significantly with Gensini scores (P value <0.001). High Gensini score patients had significantly high Apo B/Apo A1 ratio with the best cutoff value of 0.8 with sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 70%. Conclusion Apo B is an independent risk predictor for the severity of CAD in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Moreover, the Apo B/Apo A1 ratio remains highly significant in patients with high Gensini score.

Abstract
To investigate the systemic metabolic effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection, we analyzed 1H NMR spectroscopic data on human blood plasma and co-modeled with multiple plasma cytokines and chemokines (measured in parallel). Thus, 600 MHz 1H solvent-suppressed single-pulse, spin-echo, and 2D J-resolved spectra were collected on plasma recorded from SARS-CoV-2 rRT-PCR-positive patients (n = 15, with multiple sampling timepoints) and age-matched healthy controls (n = 34, confirmed rRT-PCR negative), together with patients with COVID-19/influenza-like clinical symptoms who tested SARS-CoV-2 negative (n = 35). We compared the single-pulse NMR spectral data with in vitro diagnostic research (IVDr) information on quantitative lipoprotein profiles (112 parameters) extracted from the raw 1D NMR data. All NMR methods gave highly significant discrimination of SARS-CoV-2 positive patients from controls and SARS-CoV-2 negative patients with individual NMR methods, giving different diagnostic information windows on disease-induced phenoconversion. Longitudinal trajectory analysis in selected patients indicated that metabolic recovery was incomplete in individuals without detectable virus in the recovery phase. We observed four plasma cytokine clusters that expressed complex differential statistical relationships with multiple lipoproteins and metabolites. These included the following: cluster 1, comprising MIP-1β, SDF-1α, IL-22, and IL-1α, which correlated with multiple increased LDL and VLDL subfractions; cluster 2, including IL-10 and IL-17A, which was only weakly linked to the lipoprotein profile; cluster 3, which included IL-8 and MCP-1 and were inversely correlated with multiple lipoproteins. IL-18, IL-6, and IFN-γ together with IP-10 and RANTES exhibited strong positive correlations with LDL1-4 subfractions and negative correlations with multiple HDL subfractions. Collectively, these data show a distinct pattern indicative of a multilevel cellular immune response to SARS CoV-2 infection interacting with the plasma lipoproteome giving a strong and characteristic immunometabolic phenotype of the disease. We observed that some patients in the respiratory recovery phase and testing virus-free were still metabolically highly abnormal, which indicates a new role for these technologies in assessing full systemic recovery.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Apolipoprotein A1 and B and their ratio are considered a better biomarker for cardiovascular diseases than a lipid profile, but this previous finding is not proved to cerebrovascular ischemic diseases. The aim of this study is to assess the relation between apolipoprotien A1 and B and their ratio to intra- and extracranial carotid atherosclerosis in patients with ischemic acute stroke.
Methods
90 Egyptian patients with acute ischemic stroke are included in the study, and they have been classified into 3 groups: group 1 includes 30 patients with intracranial stenosis, group 2 includes 30 patients with extracranial arterial stenosis, and group 3 includes 30 patients with non-arterial stenosis. Patients were subjected to clinical assessment, routine laboratory measures, and Color-Coded Duplex Sonography for extracranial and intracranial arteries. The measurement of serum levels of apolipoproteins A1 and B was done using enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA).
Results
A statistically significant difference was found between patient groups as regards the frequency of abnormal serum LDL-cholesterol (p = 0.04), being elevated in patients with extracranial stenosis (p = 0.01). There was a significant difference between patients groups as regards the frequency of abnormal serum HDL-cholesterol (p = 0.02), being lower in patients with extracranial stenosis. High Apo B/A1 ratio was an independent risk factor for intracranial arterial stenosis (p = 0.045). An abnormal elevation of serum LDL cholesterol was an independent risk factor of extracranial arterial stenosis (p = 0.021).
Conclusion
Apo B/A1 ratio is an independent risk factor for intracranial arterial stenosis, while serum LDL cholesterol is an independent risk factor for extracranial arterial stenosis. Apo B/A1 ratio and serum LDL cholesterol are reliable serum biomarkers for cranial arterial stenosis in acute ischemic stroke patients.

Apolipoprotein B/A1 Ratio as a Diagnostic Alternative to Triglycerides and HDL-Cholesterol for the Prediction of Metabolic Syndrome among Hypertensives in Kazakhstan. Diagnostics (Basel) 2020; 10:E510. [PMID: 32717783 PMCID: PMC7459610 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics10080510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2020] [Revised: 07/16/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Apolipoproteins (Apo) are known atherogenic factors that play important roles in many mechanisms related to coronary heart disease. The ApoB/ApoA1 ratio is a promising diagnostic tool for metabolic syndrome (MS) in different populations, though its use is not established in Kazakhstan. This study aimed to assess the relationship between MS and the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio among hypertensive patients and to evaluate its diagnostic use for identifying MS as an alternative to triglycerides (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). A cross-sectional study was conducted in 800 eligible men and women with primary hypertension from April 2015 to December 2016. Data were collected on socio-demographics, lifestyle parameters, family history of cardiovascular disease, and hypertension. Dietary Quality Score (DQS), anthropometric data, and blood pressure were recorded; ApoA1 and ApoB levels were measured in blood samples. We found a significant positive association between MS and the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio by multiple logistic regression, as shown by a linear trend of increase of the odds ratio (OR) for MS across the quartiles of ApoB/ApoA1 (p < 0.0001). ROC analysis revealed diagnostic significance of the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio for MS, and comparative ROC analysis demonstrated equal diagnostic value of ApoB/ApoA1 ratio and TG levels (AUC = 0.71 (95% CI 0.69; 0.74) and 0.72 (95% CI 0.69, 0.76), respectively), which was significantly higher than those of HDL, ApoA1, ApoB (AUC = 0.27 (95% CI 0.23; 0.31), AUC = 0.37 (95% CI 0.33; 0.41), AUC = 0.67, (95% CI 0.63; 0.71), respectively). The diagnostic value of the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio in Kazakhs with MS appeared to equal that of TG and was significantly higher than that of HDL-C. Adjusting for gender, smoking, and DQS significantly strengthened the association between MS and the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio in the Kazakh population.

Effects of Acute Cocoa Supplementation on Postprandial Apolipoproteins, Lipoprotein Subclasses, and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes after a High-Fat Meal. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12071902. [PMID: 32605005 PMCID: PMC7399847 DOI: 10.3390/nu12071902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2020] [Revised: 06/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Dyslipidemia and inflammation exacerbate postprandial metabolic stress in people with diabetes. Acute dietary supplementation with polyphenols shows promise in improving postprandial metabolic stress in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Cocoa is a rich source of dietary polyphenols with demonstrated cardioprotective effects in adults without diabetes. To date, the acute effects of cocoa on postprandial lipids and inflammation have received little attention in the presence of T2D. This report expands on our earlier observation that polyphenol-rich cocoa, given as a beverage with a fast-food-style, high-fat breakfast, increased postprandial high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) in adults with T2D. We now test whether polyphenol-rich cocoa modulated postprandial apolipoproteins (Apo-A1, B), non-esterified fatty acids, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-derived lipoprotein subclass profiles, and select biomarkers of inflammation following the same dietary challenge. We found that cocoa decreased NMR-derived concentrations of total very low-density lipoprotein and chylomicron particles and increased the concentration of total HDL particles over the 6-hour postprandial phase. Serum interleukin-18 was decreased by cocoa vs. placebo. Thus, polyphenol-rich cocoa may alleviate postprandial dyslipidemia and inflammation following a high-fat dietary challenge in adults with T2D. The study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01886989.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia plays a crucial role in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Paucity of data is available concerning the effect of apolipoprotein (apo) B/A-I ratio on the severity and outcomes in diabetic patients with ACS. This study investigated these associations in a Chinese cohort undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods and Results:In 2013, a total of 2,563 diabetic patients concomitant with ACS were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the apoB/apoA-I ratio on admission: <0.63 (n=1,279, 49.9%) and ≥0.63 (n=1,284, 50.1%). Angiographic complexity and severity were determined by SYNTAX score (SS). A higher apo ratio was significantly associated with higher proportions of acute myocardial infarction (MI) and intermediate-high SS. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the apo ratio was an independent factor of complicated lesions (OR 1.341, 95% confidence interval 1.039-1.730, P=0.024). Moreover, consistent results were found in the subgroups of normal concentrations of conventional lipid parameters. During a median follow-up period of 878 days, significant differences were found in periprocedural MI (1.0% vs. 2.2%, P=0.019) and total events of MI (2.0% vs. 3.3%, P=0.028). After adjusting for confounders, a high apo ratio remained independently predictive of MI, the risk of which was doubled during the periprocedural period and in the long term. CONCLUSIONS The ApoB/apoA-I ratio is an independent predictor for complicated lesions and future MI in patients with diabetes and ACS.

Independent association of severity of obstructive sleep apnea with lipid metabolism of atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and apoB/apoAI ratio. Sleep Breath 2020; 24:1507-1513. [PMID: 31981042 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02016-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2019] [Revised: 01/12/2020] [Accepted: 01/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are highly prevalent in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and dyslipidemia is an important factor. Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP, log[TG/HDL-C]) and apolipoproteinB to apolipoproteinAI ratio (apoB/apoAI ratio) are considered high quality predictors of cardiovascular risk. However, the associations between OSA severity and AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio remained unclear. METHODS A retrospective study was performed in 284 patients. Subjects were assessed with polysomnography (PSG) test, and OSA severity was defined by AHI. Data collected included anthropometric measurements, medical history, sleep parameters, fasting plasma lipids, fasting blood glucose, and insulin. RESULTS Participants were classified based on AHI into the following groups: control group (n = 28), mild group (n = 52), moderate group (n = 53), and severe group (n = 151). Triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apoAI, AIP, apoB/apoAI ratio (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol), LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, and HDL-C/apoAI ratio showed statistical significance among AHI subgroups (P < 0.05). The Pearson correlation analysis revealed that AIP (r = 0.32, P < 0.001) and apoB/apoAI ratio (r = 0.24, P < 0.001) were positively related to AHI. By multivariate linear regression analysis, we found that AHI was independently related to AIP (β = 0.24, P = 0.001), apoB/apoAI ratio (β = 0.24, P<0.001). CONCLUSION AHI was independently correlated with AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio in OSA. Our findings suggested that AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio increased with OSA severity, which might be partly responsible for the high risk of CVDs in OSA.

Abstract
Early identification of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is critical for clinical decision-making. The apolipoprotein B-to-apolipoprotein A1 ratio (ApoB/A1 ratio) reflects the balance between pro-inflammation and anti-inflammation in vivo. This study investigated the association between serum ApoB/A1 ratio at admission and acute pancreatitis (AP) severity. A total of 375 patients with first attack of AP were retrospectively recruited from January 2014 to December 2017. The severity of AP was assessed at admission based on the 2012 revised Atlanta Classification. Serum lipids levels were tested on the first 24 h of hospitalization, of which the correlations with clinical features or scoring systems were also measured. The ApoB/A1 ratio markedly increased across disease severity of AP. The ApoB/A1 ratio, expressed as both quartile and continuous variables, was significantly associated with a high risk of SAP, even after adjustment for other conventional SAP risk factors. The ApoB/A1 ratio positively correlated with the revised 2012 Atlanta Classification, Ranson score, Bedside Index for Severity in AP score, Modified Computed Tomography Severity Index score, and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score for AP severity. The optimal cut-off value of ApoB/A1 ratio for detecting SAP was 0.88, with a sensitivity of 83.08% and a specificity of 69.03%. Serum ApoB/A1 ratio at admission is closely correlated with disease severity in patients with AP and can serve as a reliable indicator for SAP in clinical setting.

The atherogenic index (ATH index) as a potential predictive marker of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss: a case control study. Lipids Health Dis 2019; 18:64. [PMID: 30876416 PMCID: PMC6419844 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-019-1016-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2018] [Accepted: 03/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The importance of blood lipids in the pathogenesis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is widely discussed in the literature. However, the published results that hyperlipidaemia causes hearing problems are contradictory. The objective of this study was to establish whether increased lipid levels affect the risk of idiopathic SSNHL. METHODS A case-controlled study was conducted of 27 patients with idiopathic SSNHL and 24 healthy control subjects. All of the subjects underwent complete audiological examination. The plasma levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein (apo) A-I, apoB and apoE were measured with commercially available kits (Chronolab Systems, Spain). Several clinical ratios and indices of lipid metabolism were calculated. RESULTS Detailed analysis of lipid metabolism in patients with idiopathic SSNHL has shown that disturbances in auditory function are associated with increased atherogenicity of the lipid profile. However, there were no significant differences in the conventional parameters of lipid metabolism (TC, TG and HDL-C) between patients with idiopathic SSNHL and subjects in the control group. Higher values of the apoB/apoA-I ratio, atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and atherogenic index (ATH index) in patients with SSNHL indicated increased atherogenicity of the lipid profile. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that of these three indices, only higher values of the ATH index were significantly associated with an increased risk of idiopathic SSNHL. CONCLUSIONS The ATH index can be used as a marker indicating the risk of idiopathic SSNHL when the conventional lipid indices are still normal.

Association between vegetarian diets and cardiovascular risk factors in non-Hispanic white participants of the Adventist Health Study-2. J Nutr Sci 2019; 8:e6. [PMID: 30828449 PMCID: PMC6391580 DOI: 10.1017/jns.2019.1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2018] [Revised: 12/11/2018] [Accepted: 01/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The association between dietary patterns and CVD risk factors among non-Hispanic whites has not been fully studied. Data from 650 non-Hispanic white adults who participated in one of two clinical sub-studies (about 2 years after the baseline) of the Adventist Health Study-2 (AHS-2) were analysed. Four dietary patters were identified using a validated 204-item semi-quantitative FFQ completed at enrolment into AHS-2: vegans (8·3 %), lacto-ovo-vegetarians (44·3 %), pesco-vegetarians (10·6 %) and non-vegetarians (NV) (37·3 %). Dietary pattern-specific prevalence ratios (PR) of CVD risk factors were assessed adjusting for confounders with or without BMI as an additional covariable. The adjusted PR for hypertension, high total cholesterol and high LDL-cholesterol were lower in all three vegetarian groups. Among the lacto-ovo-vegetarians the PR were 0·57 (95 % CI 0·45, 0·73), 0·72 (95 % CI 0·59, 0·88) and 0·72 (95 % CI 0·58, 0·89), respectively, which remained significant after additionally adjusting for BMI. The vegans and the pesco-vegetarians had similar PR for hypertension at 0·46 (95 % CI 0·25, 0·83) and 0·62 (95 % CI 0·42, 0·91), respectively, but estimates were attenuated and marginally significant after adjustment for BMI. Compared with NV, the PR of obesity and abdominal adiposity, as well as other CVD risk factors, were significantly lower among the vegetarian groups. Similar results were found when limiting analyses to participants not being treated for CVD risk factors, with the vegans having the lowest mean BMI and waist circumference. Thus, compared with the diet of NV, vegetarian diets were associated with significantly lower levels of CVD risk factors among the non-Hispanic whites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation of apolipoprotein AI (ApoAI), ApoB, ApoB/ApoAI and the severity of brain white matter lesions (WML). METHODS A total of 648 patients with WML confirmed by brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were divided into mild WML group (n=386) and moderate to severe WML group (n=262) according to evaluations with the Fazekas scale. The demographic data, blood biochemical parameters and the levels of ApoAI, ApoB and ApoB/AI ratio were compared between the two groups to identify the risk factors of moderate to severe WML. RESULTS Univariate analysis showed that age, gender, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, previous stroke, homocysteine, HDL-C, ApoAI, and ApoB/AI ratio all differed significantly between the two groups (P < 0.05), but ApoB levels were similar between them (P > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that with ApoAI and ApoB/AI ratio as the continuous variables, after adjustment for the compounding factors, ApoB/AI ratio was an independent risk factor (OR=11.456, 95% CI: 3.622-36.229, P < 0.001) and ApoAI was an independent protective factor for moderate to severe WML (OR=0.068, 95% CI: 0.018-0.262, P < 0.001). With the upper quartiles of ApoAI level (1.38 g/L) and ApoB/AI ratio (0.58) as their respective cutoff values, patients with a high ApoAI level and a low ApoB/AI ratio were found to have the lowest incidence of moderate to severe WML (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS An increased ApoB/AI ratio is an independent risk factor and an increased ApoAI level is an independent protective factor for moderate to severe WML.

Abstract
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The purpose of the present study was to discriminate the Indian CAD patients with or without T2DM by using multiple pathophysiological biomarkers. Methods Using sensitive multiplex protein assays, we assessed 46 protein markers including cytokines/chemokines, metabolic hormones, adipokines and apolipoproteins for evaluating different pathophysiological conditions of control, T2DM, CAD and T2DM with CAD patients (T2DM_CAD). Network analysis was performed to create protein-protein interaction networks by using significantly (p < 0.05) altered protein markers in each disease using STRING 10.5 database. We used two supervised analysis methods i.e., between class analysis (BCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) to reveals distinct biomarkers profiles. Further, random forest classification (RF) was used to classify the diseases by the panel of markers. Results Our two supervised analysis methods BCA and PCA revealed a distinct biomarker profiles and high degree of variability in the marker profiles for T2DM_CAD and CAD. Thereafter, the present study identified multiple potential biomarkers to differentiate T2DM, CAD, and T2DM_CAD patients based on their relative abundance in serum. RF classified T2DM based on the abundance patterns of nine markers i.e., IL-1β, GM-CSF, glucagon, PAI-I, rantes, IP-10, resistin, GIP and Apo-B; CAD by 14 markers i.e., resistin, PDGF-BB, PAI-1, lipocalin-2, leptin, IL-13, eotaxin, GM-CSF, Apo-E, ghrelin, adipsin, GIP, Apo-CII and IP-10; and T2DM _CAD by 12 markers i.e., insulin, resistin, PAI-1, adiponectin, lipocalin-2, GM-CSF, adipsin, leptin, Apo-AII, rantes, IL-6 and ghrelin with respect to the control subjects. Using network analysis, we have identified several cellular network proteins like PTPN1, AKT1, INSR, LEPR, IRS1, IRS2, IL1R2, IL6R, PCSK9 and MYD88, which are responsible for regulating inflammation, insulin resistance, and atherosclerosis. Conclusion We have identified three distinct sets of serum markers for diabetes, CAD and diabetes associated with CAD in Indian patients using nonparametric-based machine learning approach. These multiple marker classifiers may be useful for monitoring progression from a healthy person to T2DM and T2DM to T2DM_CAD. However, these findings need to be further confirmed in the future studies with large number of samples.

Abstract
Background Adolescents having early puberty (EP) are more likely to have obesity and increased cardiometabolic and inflammatory markers and atherosclerosis risk. We aimed to assess the indirect and mediated effects of leptin and adiposity on the relation between EP and cardiometabolic and inflammatory markers in European adolescents. Methods A sample of 511 adolescents with EP (12.5-17.5 years) from the Healthy Lifestyle in Europe by Nutrition in Adolescence (HELENA) cross-sectional study was studied. To assess whether leptin levels and adiposity mediate the relation between EP and several biomarkers, linear regression models for mediation analyses were performed. Results EP was positively associated with the atherogenic index (Ath-I) (β=0.174; 95%CI 0.029-0.265) and negatively associated with the C-reactive protein (CRP) (β=-0.284; 95%CI -0.542 to -0.028) in girls. These associations were fully mediated by leptin levels (9.5%) and adiposity (44%), respectively. Moreover, EP has indirect effects on the apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA-1) levels through adiposity in girls (for body mass index [BMI], β=0.014; 95%CI 0.005-0.028, and for waist circumference [WC], β=0.011; 95%CI 0.003-0.024), and on ApoA-1 (β=0.012; 95%CI 0.004-0.025), apolipoprotein B (ApoB) (β=-0.004; 95%CI -0.011 to -0.0004) and CRP (β=-0.265; 95%CI -0.819 to -0.047) through abdominal fat in boys. Conclusions Leptin levels and adiposity seem to play an important indirect and mediation role in the association between EP and cardiometabolic and inflammatory markers in adolescents. Weight control should be recommended in order to control the impaired cardiometabolic and inflammatory status arising in early pubertal adolescents.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia, and specifically elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, is one of the most important cardiovascular risk factors. Statins are considered first line therapy for the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, statins may not be adequate treatment for elevated circulating LDL levels and are ineffective in certain familial hypercholesterolemias. The discovery of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), a regulatory protein that affects LDL receptors, offers a new alternative for these patients. Moreover, gain-of-function PCSK9 mutations were discovered to be the root cause of familial autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia. Inhibition of PSCK9 reduces plasma LDL levels, even in patients for whom statins are ineffective or not tolerated. Alirocumab and evolocumab, human monoclonal antibodies that inhibit PCSK9, have been approved to lower LDL levels. While there are drawbacks to these treatments, including adverse events, administration by subcutaneous injection, and high cost, these drugs are indicated for the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and familial hypercholesterolemia as adjunct to diet and maximally tolerated statin therapy. PCSK9 inhibitors may work synergistically with statins to lower LDL. Novel approaches to PCSK9 inhibition are currently in development with the aim of providing safe and effective treatment options to decrease cardiovascular event burden, ideally at lower cost and with oral bioavailability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Pre-eclampsia constitutes a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Pre-eclampsia susceptibility is believed to be associated with altered lipid profiles and abnormal lipid metabolism via lipid peroxidation that leads to endothelial dysfunction. The goal of this study was to evaluate the association of maternal blood lipid and apolipoprotein levels with pre-eclampsia in a large-scale study. METHODS Using data from a large case-control study (1366 cases of pre-eclampsia and 1741 normotensive controls), the association between the distributions of eight lipid fractions and pre-eclampsia risk was evaluated using adjusted logistic regression models. Pre-eclampsia was defined as blood pressure ≥140/90 mmHg and proteinuria ≥300 mg/24 h (>1 + dipstick). Sub-group analyses were conducted for early (<34 weeks) and late (≥37 weeks) pre-eclampsia, estimating the effect of 1 standard deviation increase in log-transformed lipid fraction levels in adjusted multinomial regression models. RESULTS After adjustment for potential confounders, concentrations of triglycerides, apolipoprotein E (ApoE) and the relationship between apolipoprotein B and A1 (ApoB/ApoA1) showed the strongest associations with pre-eclampsia, particularly for those cases with an early onset. CONCLUSIONS Higher levels of triglycerides, ApoE and the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio are associated with an increased risk of pre-eclampsia. Further studies that allow for a causal inference are needed to confirm or refute the aetiological role of blood lipids in pre-eclampsia.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) are recognized as leading causes of mortality in developed countries. Although typically associated with behavioral risk factors, such as smoking, sedentary lifestyle, and poor dietary habits, such vascular phenotypes have also long been recognized as being related to genetic background. We review the currently available data concerning genetic markers for CAD in English and non-English articles with English abstracts published between 2003 and 2018. As genetic testing is increasingly available, it may be possible to identify adequate genetic markers representing the risk profile and to use them in a clinical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies reported that middle-aged patients with atherogenic lipoprotein-lipid profile exhibit faster progression of aortic valve stenosis (AS). The ratio of apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A-I (apoB/apoA-I) reflects the balance between atherogenic and anti-atherogenic lipoproteins. The aim of this study was to examine the association between apoB/apoA-I ratio and AS hemodynamic progression and to determine whether this association varies according to age. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 159 patients (66±13 years, 73% men) with AS were prospectively recruited in the PROGRESSA (Metabolic Determinants of the Progression of Aortic Stenosis) study. Hemodynamic progression of AS was determined by the change in peak aortic jet velocity (Vpeak) measured by Doppler-echocardiography between baseline and 2-year follow-up. Patients in the top tertile of apoB/apoA-I ratio (≥0.62) had a faster progression rate of AS compared with those in the bottom/mid tertiles (Vpeak progression: 0.30 [0.09-0.49] versus 0.16 [0.01-0.36] m/s, P=0.02). There was a significant interaction (P=0.007) between apoB/apoA-I ratio and age. Among younger patients (ie, aged <70 years; median value of the cohort), those in the top tertile of apoB/apoA-I ratio had a 3.4-fold faster AS progression compared with those in the bottom/mid tertiles (Vpeak progression: 0.34 [0.13-0.69] versus 0.10 [-0.03-0.31] m/s, P=0.002), whereas there was no significant difference between tertiles in the subgroup of older patients (P=0.83). After comprehensive adjustment, higher apoB/apoA-I ratio was significantly associated with faster AS progression in the subset of younger patients (all, standardized β≥0.36; P≤0.01). CONCLUSIONS Higher apoB/apoA-I ratio is significantly associated with faster hemodynamic progression of AS in the younger patients. These findings suggest that atherogenic lipid factors may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of AS in younger patients, but may be are less important in older patients.

Huh JH, Jung S, Cho SK, Lee KJ, Kim JW. Predictive value of apolipoprotein B and A-I ratio in severe acute pancreatitis. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2018; 33:548-553. [PMID: 28677336 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.13860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2017] [Revised: 06/22/2017] [Accepted: 07/01/2017] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) has considerable mortality and morbidity rates. Although many indices have been developed to classify the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP), an optimal method for predicting SAP has not been identified. The ratio of apolipoprotein B to A-I (apoB/A-I) is associated with metabolic syndrome and inflammatory status. This study investigated the association between severity of AP and serum apoB/A-I ratio. METHODS Patients with AP were prospectively enrolled at Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine from March 2015 to August 2016. The severity of AP was assessed according to the revised Atlanta classification criteria (Atlanta 2012). RESULTS Of 191 patients with AP, 134 (70.2%) had mild AP, 42 (22%) had moderately severe AP, and 15 (7.9%) had SAP; apoB/A-I ratio was highest in patients with SAP (P = 0.001). The apoB/A-I ratio was positively correlated with Atlanta classification, computed tomography severity index, and Bedside index for severity of AP. The apoB/A-I ratio showed the highest predictive value for SAP in patients with AP compared with apolipoprotein B or apolipoprotein A-I alone. CONCLUSION Serum apoB/A-I ratio appears to have value for predicting SAP in patients with AP.

ApoB/ApoA-I ratio is independently associated with carotid atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus with well-controlled LDL cholesterol levels. Korean J Intern Med 2018; 33:138-147. [PMID: 29334727 PMCID: PMC5768554 DOI: 10.3904/kjim.2017.396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2017] [Revised: 12/12/2017] [Accepted: 12/12/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS This study aimed to investigate whether the apolipoprotein (Apo) B/ApoA-I ratio is associated with carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) subjects with low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels less than 100 mg/dL. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 845 subjects aged with T2DM 40 to 75 years who had visited Huh's Diabetes Center in Seoul, Republic of Korea for CIMT measurement. Traditional fasting lipid profiles, ApoB and ApoA-I levels were examined. CIMT was measured at three points on the far wall of 1 cm long section of the common carotid artery in the proximity of the carotid bulb. The mean value of six measurements from right and left carotid arteries were used as the mean CIMT. In this study, carotid atherosclerosis was defined as having a focal plaque or diffuse thickening of the carotid wall (mean CIMT ≥ 1.0 mm). RESULTS The prevalence of carotid atherosclerosis increased with ApoB/ApoA-I ratio. The ApoB/ApoA-I ratio, expressed as both quartiles (odds ratio [OR], 2.14; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.21 to 3.79; p for trend = 0.014) and continuous values (OR, 10.05; 95% CI, 3.26 to 30.97; p < 0.001), was significantly associated with a higher risk for carotid atherosclerosis, regardless of conventional cardiovascular disease risk factors. The optimal ApoB/ApoA-I ratio cutoff value for detecting carotid atherosclerosis was 0.57, based on receiver operating characteristic curve analysis with a sensitivity of 58.0% and a specificity of 55.1%. CONCLUSIONS A high ApoB/ApoA-I ratio was significantly associated with carotid atherosclerosis in T2DM patients with LDL-C levels less than 100 mg/dL.

Relation between serum levels of chemotaxis-related factors and the presence of coronary artery calcification as expression of subclinical atherosclerosis. Clin Biochem 2017; 50:1048-1055. [PMID: 28830786 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2017.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2017] [Revised: 08/02/2017] [Accepted: 08/19/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherosclerotic plaque formation is characterized by recruitment of monocytes/macrophages, which contributes to its calcification by releasing pro-osteogenic cytokines. Chemotaxis-related proteins, including netrin-1, gremlin-1 and macrophage inflammatory protein-1β (MIP-1β), regulate immune cell migration. However, their relation with the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis, assessed by measures of coronary artery calcifications (CAC) in patients without known coronary artery disease (CAD), remains unclear. AIMS To examine whether these chemoattractant-related proteins are associated with the presence of CAC in patients without known CAD. METHODS A retrospective case-control observational study was conducted in 120 outpatients without CAD, undergoing a CAC evaluation by computed tomography with the Agatston Calcium score, categorized as CAC- (none) and CAC+ (≥1). Serum biomarkers were quantified by ELISA. RESULTS Lpa, dyslipidaemia and smoking were significantly higher (p=0.006, p≤0.0001 and p=0.001, respectively) in CAC+ patients. Serum netrin-1 levels were lower in CAC+ than in CAC- patients (196.8±127.8pg/ml versus 748.3±103.2pg/ml, p≤0.0001), and a similar pattern was found for gremlin-1 (1.14±0.39ng/ml versus 4.33±1.20ng/ml, p≤0.0001). However, TNFα and MIP-1β were strongly upregulated in CAC+ patients (447.56±74pg/ml versus 1104±144pg/ml and 402.00±94pg/ml versus 905.0±101.6pg/ml, respectively, p≤0.001). Multivariate analyses revealed that low netrin-1 and gremlin-1 levels and high TNFα and MIP-1β amounts were associated with CAC presence, after adjustment for clinical and biochemical variables. CONCLUSIONS We found a netrin-1 and gremlin-1 deficiency and a TNFα and MIP-1β overproduction in CAC+ patients' serum. These proteins may be used to identify individuals with subclinical atherosclerosis. Further research is warranted in a larger cohort of patients to establish these chemotactic-related proteins as biomarkers that improve CAD risk stratification.

Abstract
Recent studies have reported of an association between high serum apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1) levels and favorable prognosis in several malignancies, while the significance of apolipoprotein B (APOB) in cancer is less well-known. In this study, we analyzed the correlation between serum APOA1 and APOB levels, and APOB/APOA1 ratio, and their associations with clinicopathologic parameters, the levels of twenty systemic inflammatory markers, and survival in 144 colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. We demonstrated that low serum APOA1 levels associated with advanced T-class and TNM-stage but low serum APOB levels did not significantly correlate with tumor characteristics. Serum APOA1 levels showed strong negative correlation with the markers of systemic inflammation including serum CRP and interleukin (IL)-8 levels and blood neutrophil count, whereas high serum APOB levels associated with high serum CCL2 levels. High APOA1 and APOB levels and low APOB/APOA1 ratio associated with improved cancer specific and overall survival. APOA1 had independent prognostic value in Cox regression analysis. In conclusion, low serum APOA1 levels are associated with advanced stage and systemic inflammation, while serum APOB does not significantly correlate with tumor stage. Serum APOA1 represents a promising additional prognostic parameter in CRC.

Isoorientin Prevents Hyperlipidemia and Liver Injury by Regulating Lipid Metabolism, Antioxidant Capability, and Inflammatory Cytokine Release in High-Fructose-Fed Mice. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2016; 64:2682-2689.

Abstract
Isoorientin (ISO), a natural flavonoid, has been found to have multiple biological properties. In the present study, obese mice with high-fructose (HF)-induced liver injury were used to investigate the hepatoprotective effects of ISO. The results showed that ISO significantly reduced the serum lipid parameters in mice fed 20% HF water. Meanwhile, ISO appeared to alleviate HF-induced lipid metabolic disorders by increasing the serum levels of apo-A1 and decreasing the serum apoB levels, apoB/apo-A1 ratio, and FAS activity in the liver. ISO also remarkably ameliorated HF-induced hepatic oxidative injury and inflammation by decreasing ALT, AST, and ALP levels; enhancing antioxidant enzyme activities; and inhibiting inflammatory cytokine (TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6) release. Histopathology of liver stained by H&E and Oil Red O showed the liver steatosis and oxidative injury after HF treatment and the protective effect of ISO. Furthermore, aortic pathology observation found that ISO had a protective effect on the vascular endothelium. This is the first report that ISO efficiently inhibited HF-induced hyperlipidemia and liver injury by ameliorating lipid metabolism, enhancing the antioxidant defensedefense system, and regulating the secretion of inflammatory cytokines.
