Background:Objectives:To assess the potential role of angiopoietin-like protein type 4 (ANGPTL4) in metabolic disorders caused by inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods:The study included 88 patients with significant RA, 64 patients with other rheumatic diseases (RD) (36 patients with osteoarthritis (OA); 28 patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA); 17 patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS)) and 32 healthy individuals. Estimation of ANGPTL4 was carried out by enzyme immunoassay using the commercial test system “RayBio Human ANGPTL4 ELISA Kit” (RayBiotech, USA) in blood serum. Levels of ESR, CRP, RF, antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) and modified vimentin (anti-MCV) in the ELISA test were determined for all patients with RA.Results:The level of ANGPTL4 in the blood serum of patients with RA was significantly higher than in healthy people (p <0.001) and patients with other RD (p = 0.012 compared with OA; p = 0.046 with PsA; p = 0.008 with AS). ANGPTL4 indices in patients with RA correlated with the age of onset of RA (r = -0.658, p <0.001), disease activity according to DAS-28 (r = 0.449, p = 0.001), level of education (r = 0.235, p = 0.029), dose of glucocorticoid hormones (r = 0.321, p = 0.009) and methotrexate (r = -0.496, p = 0.05), the presence of osteopenia (r = 0.44), signs of kidney damage - proteinuria (r = 0.309, p = 0.037) and hypoalbuminemia (r = 0.386, p = 0.022), as well as with CRP levels (r = 0.488, p = 0.003), ESR (r = 0.458, p = 0.002), serum vitamin D (r = -0.417) and urinary calcium when recalculated to creatinine (r = 0.797, p = 0.032).Patients with RA showed a high frequency of insulin resistance (according to the HOMA-IR index) (1.27 [0.84–1.62] in patients with RA; 0.76 [0.44–1.02] in healthy individuals; p <0.001) and the presence of coronary heart disease, as well as a positive correlation between disease activity (according to DAS-28) and insulin resistance (according to the HOMA-IR index) (p = 0.033).Higher values of C-reactive protein (p = 0.04) and serum ANGPTL4 levels (p = 0.042, compared with patients with RA without type 2 diabetes; p = 0.026, compared with healthy individuals) were determined in the group of patients with RA with the presence of type 2 diabetes. ANGPTL4 acts as an inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase. His contribution to the development of dyslipidemia in RA can be demonstrated by the results we obtained when comparing groups of patients with / without signs of metabolic syndrome (MS). A positive correlation between ANGPTL4 and triglyceride levels (r = 0.42, p = 0.018) was found. An increase in the level of ANGPTL4 in blood serum of patients with RA with MS (p = 0.027 compared with RA without MS) can predict the development of cardiac pathology in this group of patients.Conclusion:ANGPTL4 is directly involved in the regulation of glucose homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and insulin sensitivity. Cardiovascular diseases associated with atherosclerosis, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome are known as the most common extraarticular manifestations of RA; the study of the role of ANGPTL4 in metabolic disorders caused by inflammation can show a new direction in the development of laboratory and therapeutic technologies in RA.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

ABSTRACT Recently, extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) from adipose tissue have been shown to be involved in the development of insulin resistance. Here, we summarize several mechanisms explaining the pathogenesis of obesity-induced insulin resistance and associated changes in the expression of obesity-associated extracellular miRNAs. We discuss how miRNAs, particularly miR-27a, miR-34a, miR-141-3p, miR-155, miR210, and miR-222, in extracellular vesicles secreted from the adipose tissue can affect the insulin signaling pathway in metabolic tissue. Understanding the role of these miRNAs will further support the development of therapeutics for obesity and metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes.

Metabolic syndrome is a frequent metabolic disorder characterized by obesity and insulin resistance seems to be the main pathophysiological alteration. The goal of treating metabolic syndrome is to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and the development of type 2 diabetes. The lifestyle modification therapy combines specific recommendations on diet alone or combined with other strategies. In this review, we address the following topics: 1) the importance of the high prevalence of metabolic syndrome and obesity, and 2) the role of lifestyle modification focusing on dietary fat intake in the management of MS.

Evidence from observational and in vitro studies suggests that insulin growth-factor-binding protein type 2 (IGFBP2) is a promising protein in non-communicable diseases, such as obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, or type 2 diabetes. Accordingly, great efforts have been carried out to explore the role of IGFBP2 in obesity state and insulin-related diseases, which it is typically found decreased. However, the physiological pathways have not been explored yet, and the relevance of IGFBP2 as an important pathway integrator of metabolic disorders is still unknown. Here, we review and discuss the molecular structure of IGFBP2 as the first element of regulating the expression of IGFBP2. We highlight an update of the association between low serum IGFBP2 and an increased risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and low insulin sensitivity. We hypothesize mechanisms of IGFBP2 on the development of obesity and insulin resistance in an insulin-independent manner, which meant that could be evaluated as a therapeutic target. Finally, we cover the most interesting lifestyle modifications that regulate IGFBP2, since lifestyle factors (diet and/or physical activity) are associated with important variations in serum IGFBP2.

AbstractThe metabolic syndrome comprises a cluster of cardiometabolic risk factors, with insulin resistance and adiposity as its central features. Identifying individuals with metabolic syndrome is important due to its association with an increased risk of coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Attention has focused on the visceral adipose tissue production of cytokines (adipokines) in metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus, as the levels of the anti-inflammatory adipokine adiponectin are decreased, while proinflammatory cytokines are elevated, creating a proinflammatory state associated with insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction. In this review, we will give special attention to the role of the leptin/adiponectin ratio. We have previously demonstrated that in individuals with severe coronary artery disease, abdominal obesity was uniquely related to decreased plasma concentrations of adiponectin and increased leptin levels. Leptin/adiponectin imbalance was associated with increased waist circumference and a decreased vascular response to acetylcholine and increased vasoconstriction due to angiotensin II. Leptin and adiponectin have opposite effects on subclinical inflammation and insulin resistance. Leptin upregulates proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6; these are associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In contrast, adiponectin has anti-inflammatory properties and downregulates the expression and release of a number of proinflammatory immune mediators. Therefore, it appears that interactions between angiotensin II and leptin/adiponectin imbalance may be important mediators of the elevated risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases associated with abdominal obesity.

Background:Type-2 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are two chronic diseases characterized by tissue inflammation and insulin resistance. To date, no data have evaluated the influence of RA-induced joint and systemic inflammation on the course of type-2 diabetes.Objectives:To study the impact of RA on type-2 diabetesMethods:Observational, multicenter, cross-sectional usual-care study, including 7 rheumatology centers. This study included over a 24-month period consecutive patients with type-2 diabetes and RA, fulfilling the 2010 ACR / EULAR criteria, and diabetic controls with osteoarthritis (OA). The following data were collected: demographics, disease activity and severity indices, current treatment for RA and diabetes, history and complications of diabetes. A systematic blood test was performed, assessing inflammatory (CRP levels) and metabolic (fasting glycemia and insulin levels, HbA1c) parameters. The HOMA2%B (insulin secretion) and HOMA2%S (tissue insulin sensitivity) indices (HOMA calculator, © Diabetes Trials Unit, University of Oxford) were used to assess insulin resistance. Ra and OA patients were compared using parametric tests after adjusting for age and BMI. A multivariate logistic regression was performed ti identify factors independently associated with insulin resistance.Results:We included 122 RA patients (74% women, mean age 64+/-11 years, mean disease duration 15+/-11 11 years, 75% with positive ACPA antibodies and 64% with erosive disease) and 54 controls with OA. 64% of RA patients were treated with oral corticosteroids <10 mg/day, 65% received methotrexate and 53% received targeted biological therapies.The characteristics of type-2 diabetes in the 54 OA patients corresponded to severe insulin-resistant diabetes: age> 65 years, high BMI> 30 kg/m2, mean HbA1c 7.3%+/-11 1.3%, 30% of insulin requirement, high frequency of other cardiovascular risk factors, macroangiopathy found in almost half of patients and biological criteria of insulin resistance (elevation of HOMA2%B and decrease of HOMA2%S).RA patients with type-2 diabetes had a younger age (64+/-11 years vs. 68+/-12 years, p=0.031) and lower BMI (27.7+/-11 5.5 vs. 31.5+/-11 6.3, p<0.001). These patients also had severe diabetes (HbA1c 7.0%+/-11 1.2%, 29% of insulin requirement, 43% of macroangiopathy) with an insulin resistance profile identical to OA controls. After adjusting for age and BMI, RA patients had a significantly increased insulin secretion compared to OA patients (HOMA2%B: 83.1+/-11 65.2 vs. 49.3+/-11 25.7, p=0.023) as well as a significant reduction of insulin sensitivity (HOMA2%S: 61.1+/-11 31.6 vs. 92.9+/-11 68.1, p=0.016). This insulin resistance was associated with the inflammatory activity of RA, with a negative correlation between the HOMA2%S and the DAS28 (r=-0.28, p=0.027). The multivariate logistic regression confirmed the independent association between the HOMA2%S index and DAS28 (OR: 3.93, 95% CI 1.02-15.06), as well as high blood pressure (OR: 1.29, 95% CI 0.33-1.99 CI).Conclusion:RA patients with type-2 diabetes displayed severe, poorly controlled diabetes, highlighting the burden of comorbidities associated with RA. The clinical-biological profile of diabetic RA patients was severe insulin-resistant diabetes, with a biological profile of insulin resistance linked to the inflammatory activity of the disease. These findings may have therapeutic implications, with the potential targeting of insulin resistance through the treatment of joint and systemic inflammation.Acknowledgments:Société Française de Rhumatologie (research grant)Bristol Myers Squibb (research grant)Disclosure of Interests:Jérôme Avouac Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Bristol Myers Squibb, Consultant of: Sanofi, Bristol Myers Squibb, Abbvie, Boerhinger, Nordic Pharma, Speakers bureau: Sanofi, Bristol Myers Squibb Abbvie, MSD, Pfizer, Nordic Pharma, Muriel ELHAI: None declared, Marine Forien: None declared, Jérémie SELLAM: None declared, Florent Eymard Consultant of: Regenlab, Anna Moltó Grant/research support from: Pfizer, UCB, Consultant of: Abbvie, BMS, MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, UCB, Laure Gossec Grant/research support from: Lilly, Mylan, Pfizer, Sandoz, Consultant of: AbbVie, Amgen, Biogen, Celgene, Janssen, Lilly, Novartis, Pfizer, Sandoz, Sanofi-Aventis, UCB, Frédéric Banal: None declared, Joel Daminano: None declared, Philippe Dieudé: None declared, Yannick Allanore Shareholder of: Sanofi, Roche, Consultant of: Actelion, Bayer, BMS, Boehringer Ingelheim, Inventiva, Sanofi

Background:Interest in highly specialized tissue cytokines contributed to the discovery of new biologically active molecules. Nesfatin-1 (NF) - discovered in 2006 as an anorexigenic factor. NF-1 is believed to be involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis by regulating appetite and water intake. The role of NF-1 in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases is poorly understood. Recently, studies have found a relationship between an increased level of NF-1 and inflammatory markers in various pathologies.Objectives:Study of the level of nesfatin-1 in the blood serum of healthy people, determination of the correlation between the level of NF-1 with the severity of clinical symptoms and classic markers of inflammation in patients with RA.Methods:120 persons were examined: 90 patients with RA and 30 healthy people. All patients underwent a complete clinical and laboratory examination. Plasma NF-1 levels were determined using commercial test systems (RaiBiotech, cat # EIA-NESF) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Patients with various forms of RA were comparable in age to the group of healthy individuals. Statistical processing of clinical examination data was carried out using the “STATISTICA 10.0 for Windows” software package. Quantitative data were processed statistically using the parametric Student’s t-test, qualitative data using the non-parametric chi-square test. The significance of differences between groups was determined using analysis of variance. The results were considered statistically significant at p <0.05.Results:The average level of NF-1 in blood serum in healthy individuals was 31.79 ± 3.21 ng / ml (M ± σ). The level of normal NF-1 values in healthy individuals, defined as M ± 2σ, ranged from 25.3 to 37.83 ng / ml. There was no significant difference in the levels of circulating NF-1 and BMI in healthy individuals and patients with RA (p> 0.05). The inverse relationship of a lower level of NF-1 with an increase in BMI was not significant.Group 1 (66 patients with RA) with increased serum NF-1 levels (> 37.83 ng / ml), and group 2 (44 patients) with normal values (<37.83 ng / ml). A high level of NF-1 was characteristic for patients with high activity according to DAS28, RF seropositive, ACCP-positive, with extra-articular manifestations, who had been ill for 10 years or more. A reliable relationship between the level of NF-1 in the blood serum and laboratory parameters of RA activity - ESR, CRP, was shown, and secondary synovitis was more common. Our data show a direct correlation between the NF-1 level of the pro-inflammatory markers of RA.Conclusion:The positive correlation between the level of NF-1 and classical markers of inflammation, such as CRP and ESR, confirms the involvement of NF-1 in the pathophysiology of inflammation in RA. This is also evidenced by the correlation of a high level of NF-1 in the blood serum with a more severe clinical picture of RA. It is known that NF-1 can promote the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1a (MIP-1a) in the chondrocytes of RA patients.It is necessary to further study the role of NF-1 in the pathogenesis of systemic inflammatory reactions and the possibility of targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines, the possibility of regulating the level of NF-1 by drugs.References:[1]Kvlividze T.Z., Zavodovsky B.V., Akhverdyan Yu.R.
