Abstract
Purpose To study the relationship between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2278426 in the angiopoietin-like protein 8 gene (ANGPTL8) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Patients and methods A total of 122 patients with PCOS and 108 controls were recruited for comparison of glucose, lipid, insulin, sex hormone, and ANGPTL8 levels. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and gene sequencing were performed for comparison of the frequency of the CC, CT, and TT rs2278426 genotypes and the rs2278426 allele distributions between the PCOS and control groups and between the obese and non-obese subgroups of the PCOS and control groups. Results The frequency of the T allele was significantly higher in the PCOS group than that in the controls (P = 0.037). In the dominant genetic model, the proportion of the CT+TT genotype in the PCOS group was significantly higher than that in the controls (P = 0.047). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that the T allele proportion was significantly higher in obese PCOS group than obese control group (P = 0.027). PCOS with the CT+TT genotype had significantly higher body mass index (BMI; P = 0.001), triglyceride (TG; P = 0.005), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR; P = 0.035), testosterone (P = 0.041), and ANGPTL8 (P = 0.037) levels and significantly lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels (P = 0.025) than PCOS with the CC genotype. Obese PCOS group with the CT+TT genotype had significantly higher TG (P = 0.015), luteinizing hormone (LH; P = 0.030), fasting insulin (FINS; P = 0.039), HOMA-IR (P = 0.018), and ANGPTL8 (P = 0.049) levels than obese PCOS group with the CC genotype. Conclusion Polymorphisms of rs2278426 may induce glycolipid metabolic disorders by affecting ANGPTL8 levels and functions in Han Chinese females with obesity from the Shandong region, increasing the risk of PCOS in this population.

Gan LL, Xia C, Zhu X, Gao Y, Wu WC, Li Q, Li L, Dai Z, Yan YM. Predictive value of angiopoietin-like protein 8 in metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease and its progression: A case-control study. World J Diabetes 2024; 15:418-428. [PMID: 38591072 PMCID: PMC10999044 DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v15.i3.418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is rapidly increasing, currently affecting approximately 25% of the global population. Liver fibrosis represents a crucial stage in the development of MAFLD, with advanced liver fibrosis elevating the risks of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Simple serum markers are less effective in diagnosing liver fibrosis compared to more complex markers. However, imaging techniques like transient elastography face limitations in clinical application due to equipment and technical constraints. Consequently, it is imperative to identify a straightforward yet effective method for assessing MAFLD-associated liver fibrosis. AIM To investigate the predictive value of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in MAFLD and its progression. METHODS We analyzed 160 patients who underwent abdominal ultrasonography in the Endocrinology Department, Xiaogan Central Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University of Science and Technology, during September 2021-July 2022. Using abdominal ultrasonography and MAFLD diagnostic criteria, among the 160 patients, 80 patients (50%) were diagnosed with MAFLD. The MAFLD group was divided into the liver fibrosis group (n = 23) and non-liver fibrosis group (n = 57) by using a cut-off fibrosis-4 index ≥ 1.45. Logistical regression was used to analyze the risk of MAFLD and the risk factors for its progression. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate the predictive value of serum ANGPTL8 in MAFLD and its progression. RESULTS Compared with non-MAFLD patients, MAFLD patients had higher serum ANGPTL8 and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index (both P < 0.05). Serum ANGPTL8 (r = 0.576, P < 0.001) and TyG index (r = 0.473, P < 0.001) were positively correlated with MAFLD. Serum ANGPTL8 was a risk factor for MAFLD [odds ratio (OR): 1.123, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.066-1.184, P < 0.001). Serum ANGPTL8 and ANGPTL8 + TyG index predicted MAFLD [area under the curve (AUC): 0.832 and 0.886, respectively; both P < 0.05]. Compared with MAFLD patients without fibrosis, those with fibrosis had higher serum ANGPTL8 and TyG index (both P < 0.05), and both parameters were positively correlated with MAFLD-associated fibrosis. Elevated serum ANGPTL8 (OR: 1.093, 95%CI: 1.044-1.144, P < 0.001) and TyG index (OR: 2.383, 95%CI: 1.199-4.736, P < 0.013) were risk factors for MAFLD-associated fibrosis. Serum ANGPTL8 and ANGPTL8 + TyG index predicted MAFLD-associated fibrosis (AUC: 0.812 and 0.835, respectively; both P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The serum levels of ANGPTL8 are elevated and positively correlated with MAFLD. They can serve as predictors for the risk of MAFLD and liver fibrosis, with the ANGPTL8 + TyG index potentially exhibiting even higher predictive value.

[PMID: 36624736 PMCID: PMC9823226 DOI: 10.1016/j.sjbs.2022.103546] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Obesity is a global metabolic disease anchored by a lack of physical activity lipid disturbances. Hitherto, betatrophin is a potential liver-derived hormone that regulates lipid metabolism. A total of 26 selected onset obese individuals (BMI range ± 28-31) were enrolled in this study and given moderate-intensity exercise. Importantly, our data show that acute moderate-intensity interval exercise (MIIE) and acute moderate-intensity continue to exercise (MICE) for 40 min significantly decrease the plasma level of full-length betatrophin respectively (174.18 ± 48.19 ng/mL; 182.31 ± 52.69 ng/mL), compared to the placebo (283.97 ± 32.23 ng/mL) post 10 min and 6 h exercise treatment (p ≤ 0.05). The plasma level of betatrophin was significantly and negatively correlated with BMI (r = - 0.412, p = 0.037), fasting blood glucose (r = - 0.390, p = 0.049), and positively correlated with VO2max (r = 0.456, p = 0.019). In addition, the linear and ordinal logistic regression analysis shows that betatrophin, is a potential predictor for BMI [estimate value = 0.995, p = 0.037 and OR (95 % CI) = 0.992 (0.0984-1.00), p = 0,048]. In summary, our data demonstrate that the circulating levels of betatrophin were decreased after acute moderate-intensity exercise training.

ANGPTL8 is a negative regulator in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Cell Death Dis 2022; 13:621. [PMID: 35851270 PMCID: PMC9293964 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-022-05029-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for heart failure and is considered a target for the treatment of heart failure. However, the mechanisms underlying pathological cardiac hypertrophy remain largely unknown. We aimed to investigate the role of angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. We found that serum ANGPTL8 levels were significantly increased in hypertensive patients with cardiac hypertrophy and in mice with cardiac hypertrophy induced by Ang II or TAC. Furthermore, the secretion of ANGPTL8 from the liver was increased during hypertrophic processes, which were triggered by Ang II. In the Ang II- and transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-induced mouse cardiac hypertrophy model, ANGPTL8 deficiency remarkably accelerated cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis with deteriorating cardiac dysfunction. Accordingly, both recombinant human full-length ANGPTL8 (rANGPTL8) protein and ANGPTL8 overexpression significantly mitigated Ang II-induced cell enlargement in primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) and H9c2 cells. Mechanistically, the antihypertrophic effects of ANGPTL8 depended on inhibiting Akt and GSK-3β activation, and the Akt activator SC-79 abolished the antihypertrophic effects of rANGPTL8 in vitro. Moreover, we demonstrated that ANGPTL8 directly bound to the paired Ig-like receptor PIRB (LILRB3) by RNA-seq and immunoprecipitation-mass screening. Remarkably, the antihypertrophic effects of ANGPTL8 were largely blocked by anti-LILRB3 and siRNA-LILRB3. Our study indicated that ANGPTL8 served as a novel negative regulator of pathological cardiac hypertrophy by binding to LILRB3 (PIRB) and inhibiting Akt/GSK3β activation, suggesting that ANGPTL8 may provide synergistic effects in combination with AT1 blockers and become a therapeutic target for cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.

Abstract
When lean people adopt carbohydrate-restricted diets (CRDs), they may develop a lipid profile consisting of elevated LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) with low triglycerides (TGs). The magnitude of this lipid profile correlates with BMI such that those with lower BMI exhibit larger increases in both LDL-C and HDL-C. The inverse association between BMI and LDL-C and HDL-C change on CRD contributed to the discovery of a subset of individuals—termed Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHR)—who, despite normal pre-diet LDL-C, as compared to non-LMHR (mean levels of 148 and 145 mg/dL, respectively), exhibited a pronounced hyperlipidemic response to a CRD, with mean LDL-C and HDL-C levels increasing to 320 and 99 mg/dL, respectively, in the context of mean TG of 47 mg/dL. In some LMHR, LDL-C levels may be in excess of 500 mg/dL, again, with relatively normal pre-diet LDL-C and absent of genetic findings indicative of familial hypercholesterolemia in those who have been tested. The Lipid Energy Model (LEM) attempts to explain this metabolic phenomenon by positing that, with carbohydrate restriction in lean persons, the increased dependence on fat as a metabolic substrate drives increased hepatic secretion and peripheral uptake of TG contained within very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) by lipoprotein lipase, resulting in marked elevations of LDL-C and HDL-C, and low TG. Herein, we review the core features of the LEM. We review several existing lines of evidence supporting the model and suggest ways to test the model’s predictions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Positive energy homeostasis due to overnutrition and a sedentary lifestyle triggers obesity. Obesity has a close relationship with elevated levels of betatrophin and may increase the risk of developing metabolic syndrome. Therefore, lifestyle modification through a nonpharmacological approach based on physical exercise is the right strategy in lowering betatrophin levels. This study aimed to analyze the effect of moderate-intensity interval and continuous exercises on decreased betatrophin levels and the association between betatrophin levels and obesity markers in women. METHODS A total of 30 women aged 20-24 years old were randomly divided into three groups. Measurement of betatrophin levels using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Data analysis techniques used were one-way ANOVA and parametric linear correlation. RESULTS The results showed that the average levels of betatrophin pre-exercise were 200.40 ± 11.03 pg/mL at CON, 203.07 ± 42.48 pg/mL at MIE, 196.62 ± 21.29 pg/mL at MCE, and p=0.978. Average levels of betatrophin post-exercise were 226.65 ± 18.96 pg/mL at CON, 109.31 ± 11.23 pg/mL at MIE, 52.38 ± 8.18 pg/mL at MCE, and p=0.000. Pre-exercise betatrophin levels were positively correlated with age, BMI, FM, WHR, FBG, and PBF (p≤0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that betatrophin levels are decreased by 10 min post-MIE and post-MCE. However, moderate-intensity continuous exercise is more effective in lowering betatrophin levels than moderate-intensity interval exercise. In addition, pre-exercise betatrophin levels also have a positive correlation with obesity markers.

Abstract
The liver, the largest solid visceral organ of the body, has numerous endocrine functions, such as direct hormone and hepatokine production, hormone metabolism, synthesis of binding proteins, and processing and redistribution of metabolic fuels. In the last 10 years, many new endocrine functions of the liver have been discovered. Advances in the classical endocrine functions include delineation of mechanisms of liver production of endocrine hormones [including 25-hydroxyvitamin D, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and angiotensinogen], hepatic metabolism of hormones (including thyroid hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1, and steroid hormones), and actions of specific binding proteins to glucocorticoids, sex steroids, and thyroid hormones. These studies have furthered insight into cirrhosis-associated endocrinopathies, such as hypogonadism, osteoporosis, IGF-1 deficiency, vitamin D deficiency, alterations in glucose and lipid homeostasis, and controversially relative adrenal insufficiency. Several novel endocrine functions of the liver have also been unraveled, elucidating the liver’s key negative feedback regulatory role in the pancreatic α cell-liver axis, which regulates pancreatic α cell mass, glucagon secretion, and circulating amino acid levels. Betatrophin and other hepatokines, such as fetuin-A and fibroblast growth factor 21, have also been discovered to play important endocrine roles in modulating insulin sensitivity, lipid metabolism, and body weight. It is expected that more endocrine functions of the liver will be revealed in the near future.

Abstract
Background Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) are closely related to insulin resistance and lipid metabolism, and may be a key in metabolic syndrome. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) (newly named metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD)) is based on metabolic dysfunction. There may be some correlation between ANGPTLs and MAFLD, but the specific correlation is unclear. This study aims to explore the predictive role of ANGPTLs in MAFLD and its progression. Methods Seven databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, WANFANG, CBM and Clinicaltrials.gov) were searched with free terms and MeSH terms. The random-effects model was used to pool the data, and Standardized Mean Difference (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were taken as the overall outcome. No language restrictions existed in the article selection. RevMan 5.3, Stata 16 and MetaXL software were applied to analyse the data and the GRADE system was utilized to assess the certainty of evidence. Results After reviewing 823 related articles, 13 studies (854 cases and 610 controls) met the inclusion criteria, and contributed to this meta-analysis. The results showed that circulating ANGPTL8 level was significantly elevated in the MAFLD group than in the healthy control group (SMD = 0.97 pg/mL, 95%CI: 0.77, 1.18). Conversely, there was no significant difference in the ANGPTL4 (SMD = 0.11 ng/mL, 95%CI: − 0.32, 0.54) and ANGPTL3 (SMD = − 0.95 ng/mL, 95%CI: − 4.38, 2.48) between the two groups. Subgroup analysis showed that: 1) the MAFLD group had significantly higher ANGPTL8 levels than the healthy control group in Asian and other races; 2) the ANGPTL8 levels in Body Mass Index (BMI) > 25 kg/m2 patients with MAFLD were higher than those in the healthy control group; 3) the higher ANGPTL8 levels were observed in moderate to severe MAFLD group than the healthy control group. Meta-regression demonstrated that BMI might effectively explain the high heterogeneity. No significant publication bias existed (P > 0.05). The certainty of evidence was assessed as very low by the GRADE system. Conclusions The ANGPTLs may be related to MAFLD. The increased ANGPTL8 level may be positively correlated with different situations of MAFLD, which may act as a potential indicator to monitor the development trends.

Abstract
A new and atypical member of the ANGPTL family is angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8). This newly discovered hormone is a drug target that can be used to treat diabetes and dyslipidemia. The protein, as a hepatocyte-derived circulating factor, can control the triglyceride level of plasma. ANGPTL8 is significantly associated with inflammation and metabolic syndrome consequences such as obesity, diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS. ANGPTL8 gene has four exons encoding a 22/5 kDa weight of 198 amino acid polypeptides. A highly preserved ANGPTL8 gene among mammals exhibits the essential hormone functions of ANGPTL8. Nevertheless, the physiological function of this hormone in the body is poorly understood. Studies published in PubMed (2008-2020), Google Scholar (2004-2020), and Scopus (2004-2020) databases of clinical trials were reviewed. This analysis is aimed at collecting information on ANGPTL8. The emphasis of this review was on gathering information about the role of ANGPTL8 in the metabolism of glucose and lipids and cell proliferation.

Changes in serum levels of angiopoietin-like protein-8 and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein binding protein 1 after ezetimibe therapy in patients with dyslipidemia. Clin Chim Acta 2020; 510:675-680. [PMID: 32858055 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2020.08.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 07/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Changes in serum levels of angiopoietin-like protein-8 (ANGPTL8) and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) in patients with dyslipidemia after ezetimibe therapy remain to be elucidated. Thirty-eight patients who initially received ezetimibe and were followed for 16 weeks were enrolled. Various parameters were investigated before and after 16 weeks of ezetimibe treatment in all patients. In addition, the patients were also divided into metabolic syndrome (MetS) (n = 22) and Non-MetS (n = 16) groups, and various parameters were compared between these groups. ANGPTL8 was significantly positively correlated with triglyceride (TG) and negatively correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) before treatment in all patients and in the MetS group. After treatment, TC and LDL-C were significantly decreased in all patients, and in both the MetS and Non-MetS groups, whereas there were no changes in TG or HDL-C. Serum levels of remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) significantly decreased in all patients and in the MetS group. The ANGPTL8 level before treatment was significantly positively associated with TG and negatively correlated with HDL-C in all patients and in the MetS group. ANGPTL8 and GPIHBP1were significantly decreased after treatment in all patients. GPIHBP1 was also significantly decreased after treatment in both groups. In conclusion, this is the first report to support the possibility of a new effect of ezetimibe therapy. Ezetimibe significantly decreased the serum level of LDL-C, but not TG or HDL-C, while reducing ANGPTL8 and GPIHBP1 in all patients with dyslipidemia. In addition, ezetimibe significantly decreased RLP-C levels in the MetS group.

Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9, Angiopoietin-Like Protein 8, Sortilin, and Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein-Friends of Foes for Psoriatic Patients at the Risk of Developing Cardiometabolic Syndrome? Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21103682. [PMID: 32456228 PMCID: PMC7279158 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21103682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Revised: 05/16/2020] [Accepted: 05/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is a systemic, immune-metabolic disease with strong genetic predispositions and autoimmune pathogenic traits. During psoriasis progression, a wide spectrum of comorbidities comes into play with the leading role of the cardio-metabolic syndrome (CMS) that occurs with the frequency of 30–50% amongst the psoriatic patients. Both conditions—psoriasis and CMS—have numerous common pathways, mainly related to proinflammatory pathways and cytokine profiles. Surprisingly, despite the years of research, the exact pathways linking the occurrence of CMS in the psoriasis population are still not fully understood. Recently published papers, both clinical and based on the basic science, shed new light into this relationship providing an insight into novel key-players proteins with plausible effects on above-mentioned interplay. Taking into account recent advances in this important medical matter, this review aims to discuss comprehensively the role of four proteins: proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PSCK9), angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPLT8), sortilin (SORT1), and cholesteryl ester transfer proteins (CEPT) as plausible links between psoriasis and CMS.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2020; 13:4519-4528. [PMID: 33244249 PMCID: PMC7685358 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s274759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM ANGPTL8 is a cytokine expressed and secreted by liver and adipose tissue, and is involved in glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism. Although studies have shown that ANGPTL8 is elevated in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease, few have examined the association between ANGPTL8 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and the risk of macrovascular complications in T2DM patients. This study aimed to explore the relationship between rs2278426 and carotid intima-media thickening (cIMT) in T2DM. METHODS A total of 217 T2DM patients and 201 healthy control subjects with normal glucose tolerance were recruited in the study. T2DM patients were divided into two groups: T2DM patients without cIM thickening (cIMT <1 mm, 109 cases) and T2DM patients with cIM thickening (cIMT ≥1 mm, 108 cases). rs2278426 genotypes in all 418 subjects were determined and the risk of T2DM and T2DM with cIM thickening analyzed. RESULTS CT+TT-genotype frequency in T2DM was higher than in controls with normal glucose tolerance, and the proportion of the CT+TT genotype in the group with cIMT was higher than in the group (P<0.05). In addition, T alleles were associated with waist:hip ratio, triglycerides, high density-lipoprotein cholesterol, plasma glucose at 2 hours' oral glucose tolerance, and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Generally, carriers of the T allele at rs2278426 are more likely to develop T2DM, and the risk of cIM thickening is significantly increased for T-allele carriers with T2DM, which indicates an increased risk of macroangiopathy.
