Abstract
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays an important role in lipid metabolism. Low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) increase the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study investigated CETP gene variants to assess the risk of T2D and specific complications of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy. Towards this, a total of 3023 Taiwanese individuals (1383 without T2D, 1640 with T2D) were enrolled in this study. T2D mice (+Leprdb/+Leprdb, db/db) were used to determine CETP expression in tissues. The A-alleles of rs3764261, rs4783961, and rs1800775 variants were found to be independently associated with 2.86, 1.71, and 0.91 mg/dL increase in HDL-C per allele, respectively. In addition, the A-allele of rs4783961 was significantly associated with a reduced T2D risk (odds ratio (OR), 0.82; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.71–0.96)), and the A-allele of rs1800775 was significantly related to a lowered DKD risk (OR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.64–0.96). CETP expression was significantly decreased in the T2D mice kidney compared to that in the control mice (T2D mice, 0.16 ± 0.01 vs. control mice, 0.21 ± 0.02; p = 0.02). These collective findings indicate that CETP variants in the promoter region may affect HDL-C levels. Taiwanese individuals possessing an allele associated with higher HDL-C levels had a lower risk of T2D and DKD.

Abstract
Although reducing low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels with lipid-lowering agents (statins) decreases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, a substantial residual risk (up to 70% of baseline) remains after treatment in most patient populations. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is a potential contributor to residual risk, and low HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established risk factor for CVD. However, in contrast to conventional lipid-lowering therapies, recent studies show that pharmacologic increases in HDL-C levels do not bring about clinical benefits. These observations have given rise to the concept of dysfunctional HDL where increases in serum HDL-C may not be beneficial because HDL loss of function is not corrected by or even intensified by the therapy. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) increases CVD risk, and patients whose CKD progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis are at the highest CVD risk of any patient type studied. The ESRD population is also unique in its lack of significant benefit from standard lipid-lowering interventions. Recent studies indicate that HDL-C levels do not predict CVD in the CKD population. Moreover, CKD profoundly alters metabolism and composition of HDL particles and impairs their protective effects on functions such as cellular cholesterol efflux, endothelial protection, and control of inflammation and oxidation. Thus, CKD-induced perturbations in HDL may contribute to the excess CVD in CKD patients. Understanding the mechanisms of vascular protection in renal disease can present new therapeutic targets for intervention in this population.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is recognised as a health concern globally and leads to high rates of morbidity, mortality and healthcare expenditure. CKD is itself an independent risk factor for unfavorable health outcomes that include cardiovascular disease (CVD). Coronary artery disease is the primary type of CVD in CKD patients and a significant cause of death among renal transplant patients. Traditional and non-traditional risk factors for CVD exist in patients with CKD. Traditional factors include smoking, hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes which are highly prevalent in CKD patients. Non-traditional risk factors of CKD are mainly uraemia-specific and increase in prevalence as kidney function declines. Some examples of uraemia-specific risk factors that have been well documented include low levels of haemoglobin, albuminuria, and abnormal bone and mineral metabolism. Therapeutic interventions targeted at more traditional risk factors which contribute to CVD, have not had the desired effect on lowering CVD events and mortality in those suffering with CKD. Future research is warranted to delineate clear evidence to the benefit of modifying non-traditional risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested a positive association between dyslipidemia and chronic kidney disease, but sparse data are available on the relation of lipids and urinary albumin excretion rate (UAE) in normoalbuminuric patients with normal renal function. AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations of serum lipids, including total, LDL, HDL, HDL2, HDL3 cholesterol, and triglyceride levels with UAE in normoalbuminuric Type 1 diabetic (T1D) patients. METHODS Study included 313 normoalbuminuric T1D patients with normal renal function and before any interventions with statins, ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers. Subjects were classified as low-normoalbuminuric (UAE<11.0 mg/24h) or high-normoalbuminuric (UAE≥11.0 mg/24h) based on median UAE of at least two 24- h urine collections. Correlations and multiple linear regressions analysis were performed to identify relationships between serum lipids and UAE in normoalbuminuric subjects. RESULTS Total HDL (p=0.02) and HDL3 cholesterol (p=0.01) levels were higher in low-normoalbuminuric subjects compared to high-normoalbuminuric subjects. In logistic regression analysis, after adjustment for age, sex, BMI, duration of diabetes and HbA1c, lower total HDL and HDL3 cholesterol levels were significantly associated with risk of higher UAE in our normoalbuminuric subjects (p≤0.01), with odds ratios of 0.34 to 0.43. CONCLUSIONS Elevated total HDL and HDL3 cholesterol levels are associated with lower UAE in normoalbuminuric T1D patients. However, whether the detection of elevated total HDL and HDL3 cholesterol levels in T1D patients has protective value for development of microalbuminuria needs to be assessed in further follow-up studies.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects around 10-13% of the general population, with only a small proportion in end stage renal disease (ESRD), either on dialysis or awaiting renal transplantation. It is well documented that CKD patients have an extremely high risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the general population, so much so that in the early stages of CKD patients are more likely to develop CVD than they are to progress to ESRD. Various pathophysiological pathways and explanations have been advanced and suggested to account for this, including endothelial dysfunction, dyslipidaemia, inflammation, left ventricular hypertrophy and cardiac autonomic dysfunction. In this review, we try to understand and further explore the link between CKD and CVD, as well as offering interventional advice where available, while exposing the current lack of RCT-based research and trial evidence in this area. We also suggest pragmatic Interim measures we could take while we wait for definitive RCTs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chinese diabetic patients are at greater risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) than Caucasian counterparts. In this hypothesis-generating study, we examined the independent and joint effects of multiple genetic variants on CKD in a prospective Chinese cohort of Type 2 diabetic patients. METHODS Seventy-seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of 54 candidate genes for cardiorenal diseases and inflammation were genotyped in 1163 patients with no past history of CKD at baseline. CKD was defined as the first estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) or the first hospitalization with a diagnosis of renal disease. RESULTS In Cox-regression analysis, 15 SNPs of 13 genes were associated with incident CKD. After correction for multiple comparisons, 6 SNPs including PON1 55Met, PON2 311Cys CETP-629C, ITGA2 873A, LTA 26Asn and LTA 252Gly remained independently associated with CKD, with respective hazard ratios (95% confidence interval):2.6 (1.4-4.8, P = 0.002), 1.5 (1.2-1.9, P = 0.003), 1.4 (1.1-1.7, P = 0.001), 2.2 (1.3-3.7, P = 0.002), 1.6 (1.1-2.2, P = 0.008) and 1.5 (1.1-2.1, P = 0.019). Analysis of joint effect of the six SNPs showed stepwise increase in risk of CKD with the accumulation of risk alleles and weighted genetic risk score (P(trend) = 8.9 × 10(-7) and 4.0 × 10(-5), respectively). CONCLUSIONS In Type 2 diabetes, there are independent and joint effects of multiple genetic variants on risk of CKD. Risk associations with PON1, PON2, CETP, ITGA2 and LTA genetic polymorphisms underline the importance of lipid metabolism, haemostasis and inflammation in the development of CKD in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Diabetes represents one of the most common diseases globally. Worryingly, the worldwide incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is rising by 3% per year. Despite the rapid increase in diabetes incidence, recent advances in diabetes treatment have been successful in decreasing morbidity and mortality from diabetes-related retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. In contrast, there is clear evidence for the lack of improvement in mortality for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This emphasizes the importance of focusing childhood diabetes care strategies for the prevention of CVD in adulthood. Furthermore, although most work on diabetes and macrovascular disease relates to type 2 diabetes, it has been shown that the age-adjusted relative risk of CVD in T1D far exceeds that in type 2 diabetes. As T1D appears predominantly during childhood, those with T1D are at greater risk for coronary events early in life and require lifelong medical attention. Because of the important health effects of CVDs in children and adolescents with T1D, patients, family members, and care providers should understand the interaction of T1D and cardiovascular risk. In addition, optimal cardiac care for the patient with diabetes should focus on aggressive management of traditional cardiovascular risk factors to optimize those well-recognized as well as new specific risk factors which are becoming available. Therefore, a complete characterization of the molecular mechanisms involved in the development and progression of macrovascular angiopathy is needed. Furthermore, as vascular abnormalities begin as early as in childhood, potentially modifiable risk factors should be identified at an early stage of vascular disease development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of serum cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) and the metabolism of various lipids including apoproteins in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The relationships between serum concentrations of CETP and various lipids and apoproteins were investigated in 193 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 68 age-matched healthy subjects. Serum CETP concentrations were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Serum CETP values were lower in diabetic patients than in healthy controls (p < 0.01). Female diabetic patients had significantly higher CETP concentrations than male patients. Serum CETP concentrations exhibited a significant positive correlation with serum concentrations of cholesterol (TC) and beta-lipoproteins in diabetic patients (r = 0.485, p = 0.013). Patients with relatively high serum concentrations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) tended to have much lower CETP concentrations than patients with lower HDL-C concentrations. Serum CETP concentrations showed significant positive correlations with those of apoproteins B (Apo B; r = 0.384, p = 0.024) and E (Apo E; r = 0.341, p = 0.035). CONCLUSION The data indicate that serum CETP is closely involved in the metabolism of TC, beta-lipoprotein, Apo B and Apo E in type 2 diabetic patients.

Abstract
Although several factors may mediate the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy, hyperlipidemia is now considered an independent and major determinant of progression of renal disease in diabetes. The following discussion focuses on the experimental evidence that incriminates hyperlipidemia as a pathogenic factor for diabetic nephropathy and the potential mechanisms that may mediate renal injury from hyperlipidemia, as well as the clinical studies involving therapeutic interventions for hyperlipidemia and their impact on progression of diabetic renal disease.

Abstract
Microalbuminuria (MA) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Postprandial lipemia is also associated with excess cardiovascular risk. However, the association between MA and postprandial lipemia in diabetes has not been investigated. A total of 64 patients with T2DM, 30 with and 34 without MA, were examined. Plasma total triglycerides (TGs), triglycerides contained in chylomicrons (CM-TG), and TGs in CM-deficient plasma were measured at baseline and every 2 h for 6 h after a mixed meal. Postheparin LPL and HL activities were also determined. Plasma levels of apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V), apoC-II, and apoC-III were measured in the fasting state and 2 h postprandially. Patients with MA had higher postprandial total TG levels than those without MA (P < 0.001); this increase been attributed mainly to CM-TG. LPL activity and fasting concentrations of the measured apolipoproteins were not different between the studied groups, whereas HL activity was higher in the patients with MA. ApoC-II and apoC-III levels did not change postprandially in either study group, whereas apoA-V increased more in the patients with MA. These data demonstrate for the first time that MA is characterized by increased postprandial lipemia in patients with T2DM and may explain in part the excess cardiovascular risk in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Dyslipidemia contributes to the progression of microvascular disease in diabetes. However, different lipid variables may be important at different stages of nephropathy. This study examines the pattern of dyslipidemia associated with the progression of nephropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 152 patients with type 1 diabetes were recruited in order to represent various phases of nephropathy. Patients were followed for 8-9 years, during which time they received standard care. Renal progression was defined a priori as a doubling in albumin excretion (in patients with normo- or microalbuminuria) or a decline in creatinine clearance (in those with macroalbuminuria). A panel of lipid variables was determined and correlated with indexes of progression. RESULTS In patients with normoalbuminuria (n = 66), progression was associated with male sex (P < 0.05), borderline albuminuria (P = 0.02), and LDL-free cholesterol (P = 0.02). In patients with microalbuminuria (n = 51), progression was independently associated with triglyceride content of VLDL and intermediate-density lipoprotein (both P < 0.05). In patients with macroalbuminuria (n = 36), a significant decline in the renal function (>3 ml x min(-1) x year(-1)) was independently associated with poor glycemic control, hypertension, and LDL size (P < 0.05). When all patients with progressive nephropathy were analyzed together, only LDL cholesterol was predictive on multivariate analysis (P < 0.05), which masked the importance of triglyceride enrichment in microalbuminuria. CONCLUSIONS Lipid variables are associated with progression of diabetic kidney disease, but the relationship is not the same at all stages. This finding has implications for the design of renoprotective strategies and the interpretation of clinical trials in type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
To identify genetic elements that might confer susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy, we performed a genome-wide analysis of gene-based single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a large cohort of Japanese patients with diabetes. In case-control association studies, patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into two groups, one having retinopathy as well as overt nephropathy and the other (the control group) having diabetic retinopathy but with no signs of renal involvement. Genotyping of these patients at >55,000 SNP loci indicated a gene encoding solute carrier family 12 member 3 (SLC12A3) to be a good candidate for the susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy, in view of a significant association of one landmark SNP located in the 24th intron (chi(2) = 15.4, P = 0.000087, odds ratio = 2.53 [95% CI 1.57-4.09]). Subsequent analysis of additional genetic variations in this gene identified several SNPs that were significantly associated with nephropathy, especially one in exon 23 (+78 G to A: Arg913Gln, chi(2) = 18.5, P = 0.00002, odds ratio = 2.53 [95% CI 1.64-3.90]). The results implicated that substitution of Arg913 to Gln in the SLC12A3 gene might reduce the risk to develop diabetic nephropathy and suggested that the gene product might be a potential target for the prevention or treatment of this disease.

Abstract
HDL subspecies Lp(A-I) and Lp(A-I,A-II) have different anti-atherogenic potentials. To determine the role of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) in regulating these particles, we measured these enzyme activities in 28 healthy subjects with well-controlled Type 1 diabetes, and studied their relationship with Lp(A-I) and Lp(A-I,A-II). LPL was positively correlated with the apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), cholesterol, and phospholipid mass in total Lp(A-I), and with the apoA-I in large Lp(A-I) (r >or= 0.58, P >or= 0.001). HL was negatively correlated with all the above Lp(A-I) parameters plus Lp(A-I) triglyceride (r >or= -0.53, P <or= 0.003). No correlation was detected between LPL and Lp(A-I,A-II). However, HL was inversely correlated with total Lp(A-I,A-II) phospholipid, and with large Lp(A-I,A-II) (r >or= 0.50, P <or= 0.006). Similar studies were performed with phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP). Only total Lp(A-I) triglyceride in women (not men) (r = 0.71, P = 0.009) was significantly correlated with PLTP activity. These observations indicate that LPL and HL play major roles in determining the level and composition of plasma Lp(A-I), particularly large Lp(A-I), but not with Lp(A-I,A-II) level. Furthermore, select correlations of LPL and/or HL with the apoA-I, cholesterol, and triglyceride of Lp(A-I) but not Lp(A-I,A-II) imply that the apoA-I and lipid of Lp(A-I) and Lp(A-I,A-II) are not fully equilibrated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increased in patients with type 1 diabetes, but lipid and lipoprotein patterns remain favorable. In contrast, nephropathy is associated with an adverse distribution. We compared the associations and predictive power of lipid and lipoprotein disturbances with these complications. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A nested case-control study from the EURODIAB cohort of 140 case subjects with evidence of at least one complication and 84 control subjects with no complications were analyzed. Conventional and unconventional lipid and lipoprotein fractions, including apolipoprotein (apo)-A1, lipoprotein (Lp)-A1, LpA1/A2, apoB, and LDL particle size were measured centrally. RESULTS CVD was only associated with increased LDL cholesterol (3.6 vs. 3.0 mmol/l, P = 0.02). In contrast, albuminuria was associated with elevated cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, and apoB and with diminished LDL particle size. No disturbances in HDL and related lipoproteins were noted. In normoalbuminuric patients, CVD was not associated with any significant changes in lipids. CVD in macroalbuminuric patients was associated with increased triglyceride level (2.37 vs. 1.07 mmol/l, P = 0.001; P = 0.02 for CVD/albuminuria interaction) and LDL cholesterol (5.4 vs. 3.3 mmol/l, P = 0.005; P = 0.004 for interaction). Independent associations were observed for total cholesterol and for LDL particle size and albuminuria. CONCLUSIONS Abnormalities in lipid and lipoprotein disturbances are more closely related to albuminuria than to CVD in patients with type 1 diabetes. Measurement of conventional parameters provide sufficient risk information. ApoB and LDL particle size offer limited extra information. HDL metabolism remains undisturbed in the presence of complications. These changes reflect associations with glycemic control, which is the key to understanding lipid and lipoprotein disturbances.

Abstract
AIMS To examine the relationship between increased urinary albumin excretion rate and fasting plasma lipids among male and female respondents to the EURODIAB IDDM Complications Study, and attempt to explain inconsistencies in previous reports. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 3250 randomly selected Type 1 diabetic patients from 31 diabetes clinics in 16 European countries was carried out between 1989 and 1990. Plasma lipids and urinary albumin were measured centrally. The present analysis was confined to the subgroup of 2205 patients attending after a 10-12 h overnight fast. Mean age was 33 years (SD 10) and mean duration of Type 1 diabetes mellitus was 15 years (SD 9). RESULTS The prevalence of microalbuminuria (24-h urinary albumin excretion rate 20-200 microg/min) was 21.7% (95% confidence interval 19.9-23.5) and macroalbuminuria (24-h urinary albumin excretion rate > 200 microg/min) 7.8% (6.6-9.0). In comparison to patients with normal urinary albumin excretion rate (< 20 microg/min), and after controlling for age, sex, glycaemic control, duration of diabetes and current smoking, macroalbuminuria was associated with significantly (P<0.01) increased fasting plasma triglycerides, cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, cholesterol:HDL-cholesterol ratio and, in women, reduced HDL-cholesterol. In men and women with microalbuminuria, the only significant association was with increased plasma triglycerides. CONCLUSIONS These data confirm that there is an association between fasting plasma lipids and increasing urinary albumin excretion rate in European Type 1 diabetic patients. In microalbuminuric patients, however, the association was weaker than previously reported and partly explained by confounding factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic susceptibility contributes to the risk of diabetic nephropathy. Lipid disorders may favour diabetic nephropathy. Thus polymorphisms in lipid metabolism are candidates for the genetic component of risk for diabetic nephropathy. METHODS We searched for a contribution of the genetic polymorphisms of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and apolipoprotein epsilon (Apo E) to the development of diabetic nephropathy by studying 494 type 1 diabetic patients with proliferative retinopathy and various stages of diabetic nephropathy (GENEDIAB Study). The selection process ensured that all patients had expressed their risk of chronic complications due to uncontrolled diabetes. Thus the nephropathy stages were largely influenced by genetic background. The lipid profile included fasting plasma total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) and B (Apo B), and lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)). Genetic polymorphisms were determined by PCR-based detection of Apo epsilon (e2/e3/e4), LPL (mutation Asn 291 Ser) and CETP (TAQ:IB B1/B2). RESULTS One hundred and fifty-seven patients (32%) had no nephropathy, 104 (21%) incipient nephropathy, 126 (25%) established nephropathy and 107 (22%) advanced nephropathy. There was a significant relationship between the stages of diabetic nephropathy and TC (P=0.002), TG (P<0.0001), Apo B (P=0.0007) or Lp(a) (P=0. 038), but not Apo A1. However the genetic polymorphism distributions of LPL, CETP and Apo epsilon did not differ in terms of renal complications. The study power to reject the null hypothesis was 58% for the Apo epsilon genotypes. CONCLUSION These results support no or only marginal effects of a genetic basis for lipid disturbances encountered in diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract
There are epidemiological data and experimental animal models relating the development of premature atherosclerosis with defects of the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) system. In this regard, the plasma concentrations of the high density lipoprotein (HDL) subfractions, of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), as well as the activity of the enzyme lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT) play critical roles. However, there has been plenty of evidence that atherosclerosis in diabetes mellitus (DM) is ascribed to a greater arterial wall cell uptake of modified apoB-containing lipoproteins whereas a primary or predominant defect of the RCT system is still a subject of debate. In other words, in spite of the fact that in DM the composition and rates of metabolism of the HDL particles are greatly altered and display a diminished in vitro efficiency to remove cell cholesterol, definitive in vivo demonstration of the importance of this fact in atherogenesis is lacking. Furthermore, the roles played by LCAT and CETP in RCT in DM are difficult to interpret because the in vitro procedures of measurement utilized have either been inadequate, or inappropriately interpreted. Knock-out or transgenic mice are much needed models to investigate the roles of LCAT, CETP, phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), and of a CETP inhibitor in the development of atherosclerosis of experimental DM.
