Abstract
Fibromyalgia (FM) is often accompanied by chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). It is a poorly understood disorder that mainly affects women and leads to chronic pain, fatigue, and insomnia, among other symptoms, which decrease quality of life. Due to the inefficiency of current pharmacological treatments, increasing interest is being directed towards non-pharmacological multicomponent therapies. However, nutrition and chronobiology are often overlooked when developing multicomponent therapies. This narrative and critical review explore the relevance of nutritional and chronobiological strategies in the therapeutic management of FM and the often-associated CFS. Reviewed literature offers scientific evidence for the association of dietary habits, nutrient levels, body composition, gut microbiota imbalance, chronobiological alterations, and their interrelation with the development and severity of symptoms. This review highlights the key role of nutrition and chronobiology as relevant and indispensable components in a multidisciplinary approach to FM and CFS.

Abstract
Fibromyalgia (FM) is characterized by chronic musculoskeletal pain, muscle tension, joint mobility loss, and several psychological symptoms severely affecting patient well-being. Histamine is naturally degraded in the small intestine by diamine oxidase (DAO). Hereditary or acquired DAO deficiency causes extracellular histamine accumulation, leading to symptoms similar to those of individuals diagnosed with FM. Thus, this study aimed to assess the efficacy of adding DAO supplementation for 8 weeks to their standard therapy. We randomly assigned 100 women with FM (age: 33-61 years) to the supplementation and control groups. The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), and intensity scales were applied for a series of clinical symptoms together with the Bristol scale to assess the added value of DAO supplementation. Patients in both groups were receiving complete pharmacological support but some differences in the number of subjects receiving analgesics, antidepressants, and anxiolytics was noted. Patients in both study groups experienced favorable changes during the evaluation period as indicated by their final FIQ and PCS scores, particularly in the DAO group in the latter questionnaire. Qualitatively, the patients assigned to the DAO treatment group had lower scores for fatigue, anxiety, depression, burning and for rumination, magnification, and helplessness.

Prevalence of Genetic Diamine Oxidase (DAO) Deficiency in Female Patients with Fibromyalgia in Spain. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11030660. [PMID: 36979637 PMCID: PMC10044988 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11030660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Diamine oxidase (DAO) is an enzyme that metabolizes intestinal histamine. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the Amine Oxidase Copper Containing 1 (AOC1) gene can lead to low enzymatic activity or functionality in histamine metabolism. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of DAO deficiency for four variants of the AOC1 gene, p.Thr16Met (rs10156191), p.Ser332Phe (rs1049742), p.His664Asp (rs1049793), and c.691G > T (rs2052129), in 98 Spanish women with fibromyalgia between the ages of 33 and 60 years, and compare the distribution of allelic and genotypic frequencies with those of European population samples in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium extracted from the Allele Frequency Aggregator (ALFA) database. The patients’ DNA was extracted, and analyzed using SNPE Multiplex (Single Nucleotide Primer Extension). The prevalence of genetic DAO deficiency was 74.5% based on the four variants of the AOC1 gene. SNP deficits were found at frequencies of 53.1% for p.Thr16Met, 49% for c.691G > T, 48% for p.His664Asp, and 19.4% for p.Ser332Phe. The allele and genotypic frequencies of the women with fibromyalgia did not differ from the European population. Variants of the AOC1 gene that are associated with genetic DAO deficiency could serve as a disruptive biomarker in patients with fibromyalgia. This study was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05389761.
