Dietary intake of advanced glycation endproducts and risk of hepatobiliary cancers: A multinational cohort study.

ABSTRACT: Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) may contribute to liver carcinogenesis because of their proinflammatory and prooxidative properties. Diet is a major source of AGEs, but there is sparse human evidence on the role of AGEs intake in liver cancer etiology. We examined the association between dietary AGEs and the risk of hepatobiliary cancers in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition prospective cohort (n = 450 111). Dietary intake of three AGEs, N^ε -[carboxymethyl]lysine (CML), N^ε -[1-carboxyethyl]lysine (CEL) and N^δ -[5-hydro-5-methyl-4-imidazolon-2-yl]-ornithine (MG-H1), was estimated using country-specific dietary questionnaires linked to an AGEs database. Cause-specific hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) for associations between dietary AGEs and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gallbladder and biliary tract cancers were estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression. After a median follow-up time of 14.9 years, 255 cases of HCC, 100 cases of gallbladder cancer and 173 biliary tract cancers were ascertained. Higher intakes of dietary AGEs were inversely associated with the risk of HCC (per 1 SD increment, HR-_CML = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.76-0.99, HR-_CEL = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.74-0.96 and HR-_MH-G1 = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.74-0.97). In contrast, positive associations were observed with risk of gallbladder cancer (per 1 SD, HR-_CML = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.56, HR-_CEL = 1.17; 95% CI: 0.96-1.40, HR-_MH-G1 = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.06-1.54). No associations were observed for cancers of the intra and extrahepatic bile ducts. Our findings suggest that higher intakes of dietary AGEs are inversely associated with the risk of HCC and positively associated with the risk of gallbladder cancer.

Project description:Background and objectivesIn kidney transplant recipients, elevated circulating advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) are the result of increased formation and decreased kidney clearance. AGEs trigger several intracellular mechanisms that ultimately yield excess cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that, in stable kidney transplant recipients, circulating AGEs are associated with long-term risk of cardiovascular mortality, and that such a relationship is mediated by inflammatory, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction biomarkers.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsProspective cohort study of stable kidney transplant recipients recruited between 2001 and 2003 in a university setting. We performed multivariable-adjusted Cox regression analyses to assess the association of AGEs (i.e., Nε-[Carboxymethyl]lysine (CML) and Nε-[Carboxyethyl]lysine (CEL), measured by tandem mass spectrometry) with cardiovascular mortality. Mediation analyses were performed according to Preacher and Hayes's procedure.ResultsWe included 555 kidney transplant recipients (age 51±12 years, 56% men). During a median follow-up of 6.9 years, 122 kidney transplant recipients died (52% deaths were due to cardiovascular causes). CML and CEL concentrations were directly associated with cardiovascular mortality (respectively, hazard ratio, 1.55; 95% confidence interval, 1.24 to 1.95; P<0.001; and hazard ratio, 1.53; 95% confidence interval 1.18 to 1.98; P=0.002), independent of age, diabetes, smoking status, body mass index, eGFR and proteinuria. Further adjustments, including cardiovascular history, did not materially change these findings. In mediation analyses, free thiol groups and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 consistently explained approximately 35% of the association of CML and CEL with cardiovascular mortality.ConclusionsIn stable kidney transplant recipients, circulating levels of AGEs are independently associated with long-term risk of cardiovascular mortality.PodcastThis article contains a podcast at https://www.asn-online.org/media/podcast/CJASN/2019_09_17_CJN00540119.mp3.

Project description:Background Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) have been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in cohorts with and without diabetes. Data are lacking on prospective associations of various α-dicarbonyl-derived AGEs and incident CVD in the general population. We tested the hypothesis that major plasma AGEs are associated with new-onset CVD in 2 population-based cohorts of differing age and comorbidities. Methods and Results Analyses involved a random subcohort (n=466) from the Cardiovascular Health Study and a case-cohort sample (n=1631) from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. Five AGEs and 2 oxidative products were measured by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Associations with CVD (myocardial infarction and stroke) were evaluated with Cox regression. Participants in the Cardiovascular Health Study were older than the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, and had more comorbidities, along with higher levels of all AGEs. During median follow-up of 11 years, 439 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis and 200 in the Cardiovascular Health Study developed CVD. After multivariable adjustment, carboxymethyl-lysine, 3-deoxyglucosone hydroimidazolones and a summary variable of all measured AGEs (principal component 1) were significantly associated with incident CVD in the Cardiovascular Health Study (HRs [95% CI]: 1.20 [1.01, 1.42], 1.45 [1.23, 1.72], and 1.29 [1.06, 1.56], respectively), but not the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. Oxidative products were not associated with CVD in either cohort. Conclusions We found α-dicarbonyl-derived AGEs to be associated with CVD in an older cohort, but not in a healthier middle-aged/older cohort. Our results suggest that AGEs may exert detrimental cardiovascular effects only under conditions of marked dicarbonyl and oxidative stress. Further investigation of α-dicarbonyl derivatives could lead to potential new strategies for CVD prevention in high-risk older populations.
