Serum sCD163 as a biomarker of adipose tissue inflammation in obstructive sleep apnoea patients: limits and perspectives
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, MURPHY et al. [1] demonstrated, through a challenging animal, cellular and human translational approach, that intermittent hypoxia induces a pro-inflammatory activation of adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs), promoting insulin resistance. They confirmed that intermittent hypoxia lowers insulin-mediated glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and evidenced the interrelationship between inflammation and insulin resistance in the adipose tissue of mice exposed to intermittent hypoxia. They then measured the concentration of serum soluble CD163 (sCD163), an assumed pro-inflammatory biomarker reflecting macrophage activation, in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) patients classified according to their BMI and apnoea/hypopnoea index (AHI). This is the first time serum sCD163 has been evaluated in OSA patients, and its association with AHI is promising. With the aim of enhancing its relevance in further studies, we wish to discuss the following points.

متن کاملIntermittent hypoxia in obstructive sleep apnoea mediates insulin resistance through adipose tissue inflammation.
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is increasingly associated with insulin resistance. The underlying pathophysiology remains unclear but intermittent hypoxia (IH)-mediated inflammation and subsequent dysfunction of the adipose tissue has been hypothesised to play a key role.We tested this hypothesis employing a comprehensive translational approach using a murine IH model of lean and diet-induced o...
متن کاملAssociation between lipid peroxidation and inflammation in obstructive sleep apnoea.
In the present study, the authors examined the relationship between lipid peroxidation and inflammation in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). A total of 40 obese patients with OSA were studied, along with 18 obese and 12 lean subjects without OSA. Overnight excretion of 8-isoprostane in urine and serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured. In addition, ...
متن کاملMetabolic disturbances in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome
The metabolic disturbances in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) include insulin resistance and elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and vascular adhesion molecules, as well as an elevation of hormones derived from the adipose tissue as leptin. These phenomena might, in part, be an explanation for the excess morbidity and mortality of OSAS patients concerning cardio...

BACKGROUND Expression of soluble CD163 (sCD163), a macrophage/microglia biomarker, is increased in inflammatory conditions, and sCD163 levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have recently been shown to be elevated in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS): the sCD163 CSF/serum ratio was elevated in patients with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), primary progressive MS (PPMS), and clinically isolat...
