Associations between Skin Autofluorescence Levels with Cardiovascular Risk and Diabetes Complications in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes. Biomedicines 2024; 12:890. [PMID: 38672244 PMCID: PMC11048053 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12040890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) contribute to the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular (CV) diseases (CVDs), making their non-invasive assessment through skin autofluorescence (SAF) increasingly important. This study aims to investigate the relationship between SAF levels, cardiovascular risk, and diabetic complications in T2DM patients. We conducted a single-center, cross-sectional study at Consultmed Hospital in Iasi, Romania, including 885 T2DM patients. The assessment of SAF levels was performed with the AGE Reader™, (Diagnoptics, Groningen, The Netherlands). CVD prevalence was 13.9%, and according to CV risk category distribution, 6.1% fell into the moderate-risk, 1.13% into the high-risk, and 92.77% into the very-high-risk category. The duration of DM averaged 9.0 ± 4.4 years and the mean HbA1c was 7.1% ± 1.3. After adjusting for age and eGFR, HbA1c values showed a correlation with SAF levels in the multivariate regression model, where a 1 SD increase in HbA1c was associated with a 0.105 SD increase in SAF levels (Nagelkerke R2 = 0.110; p < 0.001). For predicting very high risk with an SAF cut-off of 2.35, sensitivity was 67.7% and specificity was 56.2%, with an AUC of 0.634 (95% CI 0.560-0.709, p = 0.001). In T2DM, elevated SAF levels were associated with higher CV risk and HbA1c values, with 2.35 identified as the optimal SAF cut-off for very high CV risk.

Skin Autofluorescence as a Potential Adjunctive Marker for Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:3889. [PMID: 38612699 PMCID: PMC11012197 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25073889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM), due to its long-term hyperglycemia, leads to the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), especially in the vessel walls. Skin autofluorescence (SAF) is a non-invasive tool that measures AGEs. DM patients have a rich dietary source in AGEs, associated with high oxidative stress and long-term inflammation. AGEs represent a cardiovascular (CV) risk factor, and they are linked with CV events. Our objective was to assess whether SAF predicts future CV events (CVE) by examining its association with other CV risk factors in patients with type 2 DM (T2DM). Additionally, we assessed the strengths and limitations of SAF as a predictive tool for CVE. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses methodology, we conducted a systematic review with CRD42024507397 protocol, focused on AGEs, T2DM, SAF, and CV risk. We identified seven studies from 2014 to 2024 that predominantly used the AGE Reader Diagnostic Optic tool. The collective number of patients involved is 8934, with an average age of 63. So, SAF is a valuable, non-invasive marker for evaluating CV risk in T2DM patients. It stands out as a CV risk factor associated independently with CVE. SAF levels are influenced by prolonged hyperglycemia, lifestyle, aging, and other chronic diseases such as depression, and it can be used as a predictive tool for CVE.

Abstract
INTRODUCTIONS The effect of a low ankle-brachial index (ABI) in patients with advanced-stage diabetic kidney disease is not fully understood. This study investigates the prevalence of a low ABI in patients with advanced-stage diabetic kidney disease, which was defined as a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥300 mg/g and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) between 15-60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Furthermore, the association between a low ABI and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) was determined. METHODS This single-center, retrospective, cohort study included 529 patients with advanced-stage diabetic kidney disease who were stratified into groups according to the ABI: high (>1.3), normal (0.9-1.3), and low (<0.9). The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional analysis were used to examine the association between the ABI and ESKD. RESULTS A total of 42.5% of patients with a low ABI progressed to ESKD. A low ABI was associated with a greater risk of ESKD (hazard ratio (HR): 1.073). After adjusting for traditional chronic kidney disease risk factors, a low ABI remained associated with a greater risk of ESKD (HR: 1.758; 95% confidence interval: 1.243-2.487; p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that patients with a low ABI should be monitored carefully. Furthermore, preventive therapy should be considered to improve the long-term kidney survival of patients with residual kidney function.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder recognized as a major health problem globally. A defective insulin activity contributes to the prevalence and expansion of DM. Treatment of DM is often hampered by limited options of conventional therapies and adverse effects associated with existing procedures. This has led to a spike in the exploration for potential therapeutic agents from various natural resources for clinical applications. The marine environment is a huge store of unexplored diversity of chemicals produced by a multitude of organisms. To date, marine microorganisms, microalgae, macroalgae, corals, sponges, and fishes have been evaluated for their anti-diabetic properties. The structural diversity of bioactive metabolites discovered has shown promising hypoglycaemic potential through in vitro and in vivo screenings via various mechanisms of action, such as PTP1B, α-glucosidase, α-amylase, β-glucosidase, and aldose reductase inhibition as well as PPAR alpha/gamma dual agonists activities. On the other hand, hypoglycaemic effect is also shown to be exerted through the balance of antioxidants and free radicals. This review highlights marine-derived chemicals with hypoglycaemic effects and their respective mechanisms of action in the management of DM in humans.

Abstract
The formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE) in tissues is a physiological process; however, excessive production and storage are pathological and lead to inflammation. A sedentary lifestyle, hypercaloric and high-fructose diet and increased intake of processed food elements contribute to excessive production of compounds, which are created in the non-enzymatic multi-stage glycation process. The AGE’s sources can be endogenous and exogenous, mainly due to processing food at high temperatures and low moisture, including grilling, roasting, and frying. Accumulation of AGE increases oxidative stress and initiates various disorders, leading to the progression of atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and their complications. Inborn defensive mechanisms, recovery systems, and exogenous antioxidants (including polyphenols) protect from excessive AGE accumulation. Additionally, numerous products have anti-glycation properties, occurring mainly in fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices. It confirms the role of diet in the prevention of civilization diseases.

Abstract
Diabetes is a common metabolic illness characterized by hyperglycemia and is linked to long-term vascular problems that can impair the kidney, eyes, nerves, and blood vessels. By increasing protein glycation and gradually accumulating advanced glycation end products in the tissues, hyperglycemia plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. Advanced glycation end products are heterogeneous molecules generated from non-enzymatic interactions of sugars with proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids via the glycation process. Protein glycation and the buildup of advanced glycation end products are important in the etiology of diabetes sequelae such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, and atherosclerosis. Their contribution to diabetes complications occurs via a receptor-mediated signaling cascade or direct extracellular matrix destruction. According to recent research, the interaction of advanced glycation end products with their transmembrane receptor results in intracellular signaling, gene expression, the release of pro-inflammatory molecules, and the production of free radicals, all of which contribute to the pathology of diabetes complications. The primary aim of this paper was to discuss the chemical reactions and formation of advanced glycation end products, the interaction of advanced glycation end products with their receptor and downstream signaling cascade, and molecular mechanisms triggered by advanced glycation end products in the pathogenesis of both micro and macrovascular complications of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Diabetes is well established as a chronic disease with a high health burden due to mortality or morbidity from the final outcomes of vascular complications. An increased duration of hyperglycemia is associated with abnormal metabolism. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are nonenzymatic glycated forms of free amino acids that lead to abnormal crosslinking of extra-cellular and intracellular proteins by disrupting the normal structure. Furthermore, the interaction of AGEs and their receptors induces several pathways by promoting oxidative stress and inflammation. In this review, we discuss the role of AGEs in diabetic vascular complications, especially type 2 DM, based on recent clinical studies.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a complication of diabetes, which is the most common cause of end-stage renal disease (dialysis). DKD has a high mortality rate, and only early detection can nip this disease in the bud. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs)are generally believed to be involved in the occurrence of DKD. Studies have shown that the lens AGEs fluorescence for noninvasive detection has high consistency with the gold standard OGTT, has high sensitivity and specificity, and could be used as a practical tool for the early screening of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Therefore, we speculated that the noninvasive lens AGEs fluorescence detection method can be used to predict the occurrence of DKD. This study detected levels of AGEs in multiple cellular and tissues and analyzed the relationships between AGEs and lens, eyeballs, peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC), serum, and kidney. Additionally, we examined the possible role of lens AGEs fluorescence in DKD screening. Our preexperimental study found that lens AGE levels in patients with T2DM were positively correlated with PBM and serum AGE levels. Lens AGE levels in patients with T2DM were negatively correlated with eGFR and positively correlated with urinary ACR. The animal and cell experiments showed that the AGE levels in the eyeballs of DM mice were also positively correlated with those in the serum and kidney. To increase the reliability of the experiment, we increased the sample size. In our results, lens AGEs levels were positively correlated with the occurrence of DKD, and the incidence of DKD in the high lens AGEs group was 2.739 times that in the low lens AGEs group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves showed that patients with T2DM with a lens AGEs value ≥ 0.306 were likely to have DKD. The area under the ROC curve of the noninvasive technique for identifying DKD was 0.757 (95% Cl: 0.677-0.838, p<0.001), and the sensitivity and specificity were 70.0% and 78.7%, respectively. These results suggest that noninvasive lens AGEs detection technology has certain clinical value in diagnosing whether patients with T2DM have DKD.

[PMID: 34841236 PMCID: PMC8605318 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2021.101194] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGE), one of the main factors causing diabetic end-organ damage, accumulate in long half-life proteins, such as skin and cartilage collagen. AGE measurement may offer additional evidence to predict diabetic vascular complications. Skin autofluorescence (SAF) is suggested as a non-invasive, quick, and reliable method to measure tissue AGE level. The aim of this study was to review and evaluate evidence on the clinical validation of SAF measurement in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. METHODS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched "PubMed" (MEDLINE) and "Cochrane" databases from their inception to 10 August 2021 for observational studies concerning SAF measurement in diabetic patients. The following key terms were used in advanced searching: "Diabetes", "Diabetes Mellitus"," DM", "Glycation ", "Advanced Glycation End product", "AGE", "skin autofluorescence", "SAF". Published studies that included DM patients and estimated their AGE using SAF were considered eligible for meta-analysis. Articles that were editorials, study proposals, congress posters, or case reports and were not on human subjects were excluded. We used a random-effect models for meta-analyzing the clinical validation of SAF in DM with particular emphasis on chronic diabetes complications. FINDINGS We identified 881 records and twenty-nine records fulfilled our eligibility criteria and were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. A statistically significant correlation was found between SAF and diabetes last HbA1c 0.21(0.13,0.28) in studies with substantial heterogeneity (I2=77.99%, p<0.05). Nevertheless, a significant positive association between SAF level and diabetic retinopathy (DR) [(OR= 1.05, 95% CI=1.03,1.08), (I2=63.78%, p<0.05)], diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) [(OR= 1.11, 95%CI= 1.06,1.16), (I2=79.17%, p<0.05)], diabetic nephropathy (DNP) [(OR= 1.08, 95%CI: 1.05,1.11), (I 2 =65.36%, p<0.05)] and diabetic macrovascular events (D-MVE) [(OR=1.08, 95%CI=1.05,1.11) (I2=67.32, p<0.05)] were found. INTERPRETATION Our study confirmed the significance of SAF measurement as a non-invasive surrogate marker of DM micro and macrovascular complications. Skin AGE estimation may be a useful factor for the prediction and early detection of irreversible DM complications. More studies with larger populations and longer follow-up periods are required.

Abstract
AIMS The accumulation of advanced glycation end products is implicated in the development and progression of diabetic kidney disease. No study has examined whether stimulating advanced glycation clearance via receptor manipulation is reno-protective in diabetes. Podocytes, which are early contributors to diabetic kidney disease and could be a target for reno-protection. MATERIALS AND METHODS To examine the effects of increased podocyte oligosaccharyltransferase-48 on kidney function, glomerular sclerosis, tubulointerstitial fibrosis and proteome (PXD011434), we generated a mouse with increased oligosaccharyltransferase-48kDa subunit abundance in podocytes driven by the podocin promoter. RESULTS Despite increased urinary clearance of advanced glycation end products, we observed a decline in renal function, significant glomerular damage including glomerulosclerosis, collagen IV deposition, glomerular basement membrane thickening and foot process effacement and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Analysis of isolated glomeruli identified enrichment in proteins associated with collagen deposition, endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxidative stress. Ultra-resolution microscopy of podocytes revealed denudation of foot processes where there was co-localization of oligosaccharyltransferase-48kDa subunit and advanced glycation end-products. CONCLUSIONS These studies indicate that increased podocyte expression of oligosaccharyltransferase-48 kDa subunit results in glomerular endoplasmic reticulum stress and a decline in kidney function.

Abstract
CONTEXT Reducing dietary advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) may favor diabetes control. OBJECTIVE Critically analyze studies about the effect of dietary AGEs restriction on inflammation, oxidative stress, and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). DATA SOURCE This systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA methodology. The PubMed, Web of Science, LILACS, and Cochrane Library databases were searched, using the terms "type 2 diabetes," "advanced glycation end products" and "diet." DATA EXTRACTION Seven original studies were included in this review. The duration of the studies ranged from 1 day to 16 weeks. All extracted data were compiled, compared, and critically analyzed. DATA ANALYSIS Glycemic variables were considered the primary outcomes. The secondary outcomes were glycation, inflammatory, and oxidative stress markers. CONCLUSION Although serum insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, and glycated hemoglobin values were lower after the consumption of AGEs restricted diets in most studies, there was a lack of unanimity regarding dietary AGEs' positive effect on inflammation, oxidative stress, and blood glucose.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Subjects with type 2 diabetes have an excess risk of cancer. The potential role of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulated during long-term hyperglycemia in cancer development has been suggested by biological studies but clinical data are missing. AGEs can be estimated by measuring the skin autofluorescence. We searched whether the skin autofluorescence could predict new cancers in persons with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS From 2009 to 2015, we measured the skin autofluorescence of 413 subjects hospitalized for uncontrolled or complicated type 2 diabetes, without any history of cancer. The participants were followed for at least 1 year and the occurrences of new cancers were compared according to their initial skin autofluorescences. RESULTS The participants were mainly men (57.9%), with poorly controlled (HbA1c 72±14 mmol/mol or 8.7%±1.8%) and/or complicated type 2 diabetes. Their median skin autofluorescence was 2.6 (2.2-3.0) arbitrary units. Forty-five new cancer cases (10.9%) were registered during 4.8±2.3 years of follow-up: 75.6% of these subjects had skin autofluorescence higher than the median (χ2: p=0.001). By Cox regression analysis adjusted for age, gender, body mass index, history of smoking and renal parameters, skin autofluorescence >2.6 predicted a 2.57-fold higher risk of cancer (95% CI 1.28 to 5.19, p=0.008). This association remained significant after excluding the eight cancers that occurred in the 4 years after inclusion (OR 2.95, 95% CI 1.36 to 6.38, p=0.006). As a continuous variable, skin autofluorescence was also related to new cancers (OR 1.05, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.10, p=0.045). CONCLUSIONS Skin autofluorescence, a potential marker of glycemic memory, predicts the occurrence of cancer in subjects with type 2 diabetes. This relation provides a new clinical argument for the role of AGEs in cancer. Their estimation by measuring the skin autofluorescence may help select subjects with diabetes in cancer screening programs.

Abstract
Despite the early loss of glycemic differences between the original intensive therapy group and conventional treatment in the DCCT/EDIC and UKPDS 80 trials, a continued reduction in microvascular risk and risk reductions for emergency myocardial infarction and all-cause death were observed 10-30 years after the end of these trials. These observations demonstrated that so-called "metabolic memory" could cause chronic abnormalities in diabetic vessels that are not easily reversed, even by subsequent improvement in blood glucose levels, thus suggesting a long-term beneficial influence of early metabolic control; that is, legacy effects on the risk of vascular complications and death in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Formation and accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) are known to progress at an accelerated rate under diabetes. Furthermore, AGEs are hardly degraded and remain for a long time in diabetic vessels even after glycemic control is improved. Therefore, AGEs could explain why former cumulative diabetic exposure could contribute to current progression of vascular complications in diabetes. Here, the clinical utility of measurement of serum and tissue accumulation levels of AGEs for evaluating the prevalence and severity of numerous types of cardiovascular disease is reviewed and novel therapeutic strategies that could target the AGE-RAGE axis in CVD are discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Much of the chronic care of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension involves the prevention of diabetic complications. Renin-angiotensin system inhibitors are recommended as first-line therapies because of their nephroprotective properties. Their combination with metabolically neutral diuretics is recommended to reduce blood pressure, morbidity and mortality. Our objective was to review the mechanisms by which the combination of the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, perindopril, and metabolically neutral thiazide-like diuretic, indapamide, targets the pathways involved in microvascular and macrovascular diabetic complications. METHODS For this narrative review, extensive literature searches were performed using PubMed/Medline. Articles published in English describing clinical trials and mechanism of action studies that were relevant to the treatment of patients with perindopril and/or indapamide were included. RESULTS Perindopril/indapamide treatment has been shown to reduce blood pressure and to have significant beneficial effects on arterial distensibility, kidney structure and function, and endothelial function. Recent data also suggests that perindopril may reduce the deleterious accumulation of advanced glycation end products in diabetic tissue. In the Action in Diabetes and Vascular Disease: Preterax and Diamicron MR Controlled Evaluation diabetes trial, perindopril/indapamide treatment significantly reduced the relative risk of microvascular and macrovascular events by 9%, cardiovascular mortality by 18%, and all-cause mortality by 14%. Interestingly, 6 years after the end of the double-blind period, follow-up data showed that the beneficial effects on mortality continued to be significant even though differences in blood pressure and glycated hemoglobin levels had not been significant for several years. Together this data suggests that treatment with perindopril/indapamide has microvascular and macrovascular effects that extend beyond blood pressure lowering and that this treatment might confer a long-lasting beneficial vascular legacy. CONCLUSION Moving forward, understanding the pathophysiological bases of the effects that extend beyond those of blood pressure control will help us differentiate between anti-hypertensive choices.

Abstract
Background Recent clinical studies have shown that skin autofluorescence (AF) levels are significantly associated with diabetic complications. In contrast, data regarding the relationships between skin AF and chronic heart failure (CHF) are limited. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical significance of skin AF in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) with CHF. Methods This cross-sectional study enrolled 257 outpatients with type 2 DM with CHF who were treated medically (96 men and 161 women; mean age, 79 ± 7 years). Associations between skin AF and various clinical parameters were examined. Results Incidence of skin AF in patients with a history of hospitalization due to HF was significantly higher than in those without a history of hospitalization due to HF (3.0 ± 0.5 AU vs. 2.7 ± 0.5 AU, respectively, P < 0.001). Significant positive correlations were found between skin AF and various clinical parameters, such as E/e′ as a maker of left ventricular diastolic function (r = 0.30, P < 0.001), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels as a marker of myocardial injury (r = 0.45, P < 0.001), reactive oxygen metabolite levels as an oxidative stress marker (r = 0.31, P < 0.001), and cardio-ankle vascular index as a marker of arterial function (r = 0.38, P < 0.001). Furthermore, multiple regression analyses showed that these clinical parameters (E/e′ (β = 0.25, P < 0.001)), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels (β = 0.30, P < 0.001), cardio-ankle vascular index (β = 0.21, P < 0.001), reactive oxygen metabolite levels (β = 0.15, P < 0.01), and a history of hospitalization due to HF (β = 0.23, P < 0.001) were independent variables when skin AF was used as a subordinate factor. Conclusion The findings of this study showed that skin AF may be a determining factor for prognosis in patients with type 2 DM with CHF. Further investigations in a large prospective study, including intervention therapies, are required to validate the results of this study.

Abstract
In this narrative review, the biological/biochemical impact (toxicity) of a large array of known individual uremic retention solutes and groups of solutes is summarized. We classified these compounds along their physico-chemical characteristics as small water-soluble compounds or groups, protein bound compounds and middle molecules. All but one solute (glomerulopressin) affected at least one mechanism with the potential to contribute to the uremic syndrome. In general, several mechanisms were influenced for each individual solute or group of solutes, with some impacting up to 7 different biological systems of the 11 considered. The inflammatory, cardio-vascular and fibrogenic systems were those most frequently affected and they are one by one major actors in the high morbidity and mortality of CKD but also the mechanisms that have most frequently been studied. A scoring system was built with the intention to classify the reviewed compounds according to the experimental evidence of their toxicity (number of systems affected) and overall experimental and clinical evidence. Among the highest globally scoring solutes were 3 small water-soluble compounds [asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA); trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO); uric acid], 6 protein bound compounds or groups of protein bound compounds [advanced glycation end products (AGEs); p-cresyl sulfate; indoxyl sulfate; indole acetic acid; the kynurenines; phenyl acetic acid;] and 3 middle molecules [β2-microglobulin; ghrelin; parathyroid hormone). In general, more experimental data were provided for the protein bound molecules but for almost half of them clinical evidence was missing in spite of robust experimental data. The picture emanating is one of a complex disorder, where multiple factors contribute to a multisystem complication profile, so that it seems of not much use to pursue a decrease of concentration of a single compound.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is characterized by the production and accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which are one of the key mechanisms in the development of its chronic complications. AIMS OF THE STUDY To assess the serum AGEs concentration by a radioimmunoassay (RIA) developed in our laboratory, to establish reference values in healthy population and to evaluate the diagnostic potential of measuring longitudinal changes in circulating AGEs concentrations to predict the development of DM. METHODS Clinical and metabolic parameters were obtained from a cohort of 781 Mexican people, initially and then seven years later. AGEs were quantified by a specific RIA. Associations of the changes in circulating levels of AGEs with the appearance of impaired fasting glucose (IFG), and the development of DM were evaluated. RESULTS Diabetic subjects had higher circulating levels of AGEs than normoglycemic subjects or individuals with IFG in both samples studied (471 vs. 246 and 342 μU/mL, p <0.001; and 912 vs. 428 and 519 μU/mL, p <0.001; respectively). A multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that subjects who had AGEs concentration ≥400 μU/mL in the baseline sample had a relative risk ratio of 1.98 to develop IFG seven years later (p = 0.003). While the subjects who had AGEs concentration ≥450 μU/mL in the baseline sample had a relative risk ratio of 10.7 to develop DM seven years later (p <0.001). CONCLUSIONS Circulating AGEs concentration is a good early marker to predict risk of developing DM.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia induces the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and their receptors (RAGEs), which alter several intracellular signaling mechanisms leading to the onset and progression of diabetic nephropathy. The present study focused on, i) modulatory effects of trans-resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) on structural changes, AGE (NƐ-carboxymethyl-lysine), RAGE, oxidative stress and DNA damage, and apoptosis, and ii) localization of fibrotic changes, AGE, RAGE, 8-oxo-dG and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) in diabetic rat kidneys. Resveratrol (5mg/kg; po, administered during last 45days of 90-day-long hyperglycemic period) administration to streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic male Wistar rats reduced renal hypertrophy and structural changes (tubular atrophy, mesangial expansion or shrinkage, diffuse glomerulonephritis, and fibrosis), AGE accumulation, oxidative stress and DNA damage (8-oxo-dG), 4-HNE, caspase-3, and cleaved-caspase-3, but not the RAGE expression. The AGE accumulated in the mesangium, vascular endothelium, and proximal convoluted tubules and less intensely in distal convoluted tubules of diabetic rat kidneys. The RAGE expression increased in the convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of diabetic rat kidneys, but not in the mesangium. Diabetes increased the expression of 8-oxo-dG in nuclei and cytoplasm of renal cells, and 4-HNE in glomeruli, convoluted tubules, the loops of Henle and collecting ducts. Hyperglycemia-induced AGE-RAGE axis and oxidative stress in turn induced apoptosis in diabetic kidneys. Resveratrol mitigated all diabetic effects except the RAGE expression. In conclusion, Resveratrol significantly alleviates diabetes-induced glycation, oxidative damage, and apoptosis to inhibit the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Resveratrol supplementation may be useful to hinder the onset and progression of diabetic kidney diseases.

Progression of skin autofluorescence of AGEs over 4 years in patients with type 1 diabetes. Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2017; 33. [PMID: 28719154 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.2917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2017] [Revised: 06/27/2017] [Accepted: 07/05/2017] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The deposit of advanced glycation end-products is involved in diabetic complications. It can be evaluated by measuring the skin autofluorescence (sAF). We searched whether sAF progressed over 4 years in type 1 diabetes and analysed its relationship with the development of nephropathy. METHODS Two measurements of skin autofluorescence (sAF) were completed on 154 patients during years 2009 and 2013. Baseline factors associated with the progression of sAF were analysed by multivariate regression analysis. The relations among sAF progression, microalbuminuria, and impaired estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were analysed by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The patients were 51 ± 16 years old, with duration of diabetes of 23 ± 13 years, HbA1c: 7.7 ± 1.0%, 20.7% were treated by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). The sAF progressed by +18.1% over 4 years. Two interacting (P = .04) variables were associated with the later progression of sAF: mildly impaired eGFR and treatment by CSII. The patients with mildly impaired eGFR had the highest progression of sAF (+11.5% P = .01). Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion was associated with a reduced progression of sAF in patients without kidney impairment (ß = -7.2%, P = .01). A +10% progression of sAF during the follow-up was associated with more microalbuminuria: OR = 1.45, P = .02, and more mildly impaired eGFR (<90 mL/min/1.73 m2 ): OR 1.22, P = .03 at 4 years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The skin autofluorescence of advanced glycation end-products progresses in patients with type 1 diabetes, more if they have diabetic nephropathy, less if they are treated by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. This progression is associated with the development of nephropathy.

Skin autofluorescence, renal insufficiency and retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. J Diabetes Complications 2017; 31:619-623. [PMID: 28063765 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2016.10.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2016] [Revised: 10/17/2016] [Accepted: 10/26/2016] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are involved in diabetic retinopathy (DR). Their accumulation in tissues can be analyzed by measuring the skin autofluorescence (sAF). We hypothesized that renal insufficiency, another cause of high sAF, may disturb the relation between sAF and DR. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We measured sAF with an AGE-Reader in 444 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and we analyzed their retinal status. The associations of sAF with DR, and interaction with renal insufficiency were estimated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Mean age was 62years (standard deviation (SD) 10years), diabetes duration 13 (9) years and mean HbA1C 8.9% (1.8). The prevalence of DR was 21.4% and increased with age, diabetes duration, arterial hypertension, renal parameters (serum creatinine and albumin excretion rates), and sAF. The prevalence of macular edema (ME) was 8.6% and increased with the duration of diabetes, but not with sAF (p=0.11). There was a significant interaction between renal insufficiency and sAF for the relation with DR or ME (p=0.02). For the 83% patients without renal insufficiency (estimated GFR>60mL/min/1.73m2), sAF was related to DR or ME after multivariate adjustment: OR 1.87 (1.09-3.19). The 17% patients with renal insufficiency had the highest rates of DR or ME (38.6%) and the highest sAF, unrelated to each other. CONCLUSIONS In T2D patients with renal insufficiency, the high sAF does not relate to retinopathy, which should be systematically searched due to its high frequency. For other patients, a high sAF argues for DR screening.

Abstract
AIM Although diabetes-related erectile dysfunction (ED) has many etiological factors, little is known about the putative pathophysiological role of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Skin autofluorescence is a noninvasive marker of AGEs. Recent studies have evidenced a relationship between skin autofluorescence and several complications of diabetes. We hypothesized that AGEs (assessed by skin autofluorescence) are associated with ED in diabetes patients. METHODS Between March 2014 and April 2015, 42 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and 44 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) were consecutively enrolled in a descriptive, cross-sectional study and compared to 54 healthy controls. ED was evaluated via the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5). Skin autofluorescence was measured on the volar aspect of the arm with an AGE-Reader. RESULTS Patients with diabetes had a mean±standard deviation age of 50±15 and a mean duration of diabetes of 16±12years. Skin autofluorescence was strongly and significantly correlated with the IIEF-5 score in the T1D subgroup (r=-0.52; P=0.004), the T2D subgroup (r=-0.32; P<0.03) and in the whole group of diabetic patients (r=-0.49; P<0.0001). In multivariate analyses that controlled for potentially confounding clinical and biochemical factors, only skin autofluorescence was still significantly correlated with the IIEF-5 score (P<0.0001). A receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that a skin autofluorescence value ≥3.2AU determined severe ED with a sensitivity of 60% and a specificity of 87% in diabetic patients. CONCLUSION Skin autofluorescence is significantly associated with ED in diabetes, independently of classical confounding factors.

Abstract
Aims/Introduction Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance, and is associated with the effects of genetic and environmental factors. The present study aimed to not only analyze the influence of a single factor for type 2 diabetes, but also to investigate the interaction effects between risk factors. Materials and Methods A total of 6,660 individuals selected by the method of cluster random sampling accepted a cross‐sectional survey (questionnaire investigation, physical measurement, laboratory examination and liver ultrasound examination). The classification tree was used to analyze the risk factors and their interactions in type 2 diabetes. The clinical and metabolic characteristics were compared between type 2 diabetes patients and controls, and the non‐conditional logistic regression model was used to quantitatively analyze the interactions. Results A total of 338 participants were classified as type 2 diabetes (217 men and 121 women), the classification tree model showed three variables with close associations with type 2 diabetes: age, triglycerides (TG) and non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Type 2 diabetes patients had higher age and incidences of high TG, NAFLD, hypertension, high body mass index, high uric acid, high total cholesterol, high low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and low high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the following factors had interactions in type2 diabetes: high TG × advanced age (odds ratio 2.499, 95% confidence interval 1.868–3.344, P = 0.000), NAFLD × advanced age (odds ratio 1.250, 95% confidence interval 1.048–1.491, P = 0.013) and NAFLD × high TG (odds ratio 1.349, 95% confidence interval 1.144–1.590, P = 0.000). Conclusions The present study showed that type 2 diabetes resulted from the interactions of many factors; the interactions among age, TG and NAFLD are important risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
