Metabolic Factors Predict Changes in Endothelial Function During the Early Course of Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Endothelial dysfunction may occur early in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases; however, it remains often underestimated and studies rarely discriminate between diabetes types. We have examined endothelial function and its determinants during the early course of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Caucasian participants of the prospective German Diabetes Study (GDS) with known diabetes duration <1 year (n = 398) or without diabetes, but of similar age, body mass index (BMI) and sex distribution (n = 109), underwent measurements of flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and nitroglycerin-mediated dilatation (NMD). Whole-body insulin sensitivity (M-value) was assessed by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps and physical fitness (VO2max) by spiroergometry. A subset of individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes (n = 108) was re-evaluated after 5 years. At baseline, neither FMD nor NMD differed between people with diabetes and the matched glucose-tolerant groups. At the 5-year follow-up, decline in FMD (-13.9%, P = .013) of persons with type 2 diabetes was independent of age, sex, and BMI, but associated with baseline adipose tissue insulin resistance and indices of liver fibrosis. The M-value decreased in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes groups by 24% and 15% (both P < .001, respectively) over 5 years. Higher HbA1c, lower M-value, and lower VO2max at baseline was associated with lower FMD in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Endothelial function decreases during the early course of type 2 diabetes. In addition to age and BMI, insulin sensitivity at diagnosis was the best predictor of progressive impairment in endothelial function in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Intramyocellular lipid content (IMCL) is elevated in insulin-resistant humans, but it changes over time, and relationships with comorbidities remain unclear. We examined IMCL during the initial course of diabetes and its associations with complications. Participants of the German Diabetes Study (GDS) with recent-onset type 1 (n = 132) or type 2 diabetes (n = 139) and glucose-tolerant control subjects (n = 128) underwent 1H-MRS to measure IMCL and muscle volume, whole-body insulin sensitivity (hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps; M-value), and cycling spiroergometry (VO2max). Subgroups underwent the same measurements after 5 years. At baseline, IMCL was ∼30% higher in type 2 diabetes than in other groups independently of age, sex, BMI, and muscle volume. In type 2 diabetes, the M-value was ∼36% and ∼62% lower compared with type 1 diabetes and control subjects, respectively. After 5 years, the M-value decreased by ∼29% in type 1 and ∼13% in type 2 diabetes, whereas IMCL remained unchanged. The correlation between IMCL and M-value in type 2 diabetes at baseline was modulated by VO2max. IMCL also associated with microalbuminuria, the Framingham risk score for cardiovascular disease, and cardiac autonomic neuropathy. Changes in IMCL within 5 years after diagnosis do not mirror the progression of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes but associate with early diabetes-related complications.Article highlightsIntramyocellular lipid content (IMCL) can be elevated in insulin-resistant humans, but its dynamics and association with comorbidities remain unclear. Independently of age, sex, body mass, and skeletal muscle volume, IMCL is higher in recent-onset type 2, but not type 1 diabetes, and remains unchanged within 5 years, despite worsening insulin resistance. A degree of physical fitness modulates the association between IMCL and insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes. Whereas higher IMCL associates with lower insulin sensitivity in people with lower physical fitness, there is no association between IMCL and insulin sensitivity in those with higher degree of physical fitness. IMCL associates with progression of microalbuminuria, cardiovascular disease risk, and cardiac autonomic neuropathy.

Project description:BackgroundGlycocalyx lines the inner surface of the capillary endothelium. Capillaroscopy enables visualization of the sublingual capillaries and measurement of the Perfused Boundary Region (PBR) as an estimate of the glycocalyx. Novel software enables assessment of the PBR estimated at a fixed high flow level (PBR-hf) and an overall microvascular assessment by the MicroVascular Health Score (MVHS). Damaged glycocalyx may represent microvascular damage in diabetes and assessment of its dimension might improve early cardio-renal risk stratification.AimTo assess the associations between PBR, PBR-hf and MVHS and cardio-renal risk factors in persons with type 1 diabetes (T1D); and to compare these dimensions in persons with T1D and controls.MethodsCross-sectional study including 161 persons with T1D stratified according to level of albuminuria and 50 healthy controls. The PBR, PBR-hf and MVHS were assessed by the GlycoCheck device (valid measurements were available in 136 (84.5%) with T1D and in all the controls). Higher PBR and PBR-hf indicate smaller glycocalyx width. Lower MVHS represents a worse microvascular health.ResultsThere were no associations between PBR, PBR-hf or MVHS and the cardio-renal risk factors in persons with T1D, except for higher PBR-hf and lower MVHS in females (p = 0.01 for both). There was no difference in PBR, PBR-hf or MVHS in persons with normo-, micro- or macroalbuminuria. The PBR was higher (2.20±0.30 vs. 2.03±0.18μm; p<0.001) and MVHS lower (3.15±1.25 vs. 3.53±0.86μm; p = 0.02) in persons with T1D compared to controls (p≤0.02). After adjustment for cardio-renal risk factors the difference in PBR remained significant (p = 0.001).ConclusionsThe endothelial glycocalyx dimension was impaired in persons with T1D compared to controls. We found no association between the endothelial glycocalyx dimension and the level of albuminuria or cardio-renal risk factors among persons with T1D. The use of the GlycoCheck device in T1D may not contribute to cardio-renal risk stratification.
