Soluble RAGE in COPD, with or without coexisting obstructive sleep apnoea.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypoxia can reduce the levels of soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE), a new anti-inflammatory biomarker of COPD. We assessed sRAGE in patients with hypoxia-related diseases such as COPD, OSA and OSA-COPD overlap.

Methods

Plasma levels of sRAGE were measured in 317 subjects at baseline (57 heathy nonsmokers [HNS], 84 healthy smokers [HS], 79 OSA, 62 COPD and 35 OSA-COPD overlap patients) and in 294 subjects after one year of follow-up (50 HNS, 74 HS, 77 OSA, 60 COPD and 33 overlap).

Results

After adjusting for age, sex, smoking status and body mass index, sRAGE levels showed a reduction in OSA (- 12.5%, p = 0.005), COPD (- 14.8%, p < 0.001) and OSA-COPD overlap (- 12.3%, p = 0.02) compared with HNS. There were no differences when comparing sRAGE plasma levels between overlap patients and those with OSA or COPD alone. At follow-up, sRAGE levels did not change significantly in healthy subjects, COPD and OSA or OSA-COPD overlap nontreated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Moreover, in patients with OSA and OSA-COPD overlap who were treated with CPAP, sRAGE increased significantly.

Conclusions

The levels of sRAGE are reduced in COPD and OSA. Treatment with CPAP appears to improve sRAGE levels in patients with OSA who also had COPD.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and morbid obesity (MO), defined by a body mass index ≥35 kg/m2, are two closely related conditions. Recent studies suggest that circulating microRNA (miRNA) plays a potential role in the physiopathology of both conditions. To date, circulating miRNA expression has been studied separately in both conditions, but never jointly. The primary treatment of OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), whereas bariatric surgery (BS) is the treatment of choice for MO. We have thus initiated the Epigenetics modification in Morbid Obesity and Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (EPIMOOSA) study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03995836). METHODS/DESIGN:EPIMOOSA is a prospective non-interventional cohort study aiming to recruit 45 MO patients who are candidates for BS. Three groups will be formed: MO without OSA, MO with OSA without CPAP and MO with OSA and CPAP. All of them will be followed up in 4 visits: baseline, 6 months prior to BS and 3, 6 and 12 months post-BS. At baseline, OSA status will be assessed by home sleep polygraphy (HSP), and CPAP will be adopted according to national guidelines. A specific standardized questionnaire (including medical conditions and AOS-related symptoms) and anthropometrical examination will be performed at each visit. Blood samples will be obtained at each visit for immediate standard biochemistry, haematology and inflammatory cytokines. For bio-banking, serum, plasma, and circulating exosomes will also be obtained. Twenty-four hours of blood pressure and electrocardiogram (ECG) Holter monitoring will be performed at all visits. A new HSP will be performed at the last visit. Finally, the three groups will be sex- and age- matched with participants in the EPIOSA study, an ongoing study aimed at understanding epigenetic changes in non-obese OSA patients. DISCUSSION:EPIMOOSA will evaluate changes in circulating miRNA in MO with or without OSA for the first time. In addition, EPIMOOSA will be able to elucidate the influence of OSA in MO patients and how specific and combined treatments alter miRNA expression.
