About this study

Official title: OLIVE OIL ON NAMPT AND ITS RELATION WITH POSTPRANDIAL INFLAMMATION AND ATHEROSCLEROSIS IN THE SETTING OF METABOLIC SYNDROME. The OLNAMS Project

The metabolic syndrome may be defined as the constellation of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors that comprises obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Lack of habitual physical activity and certain dietary patterns, including high-saturated fatty acids (SFA) intake, contribute to increase the risk of CVD, whereas the greatest risk reduction is related with monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), mainly from olive oil, and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Vitamin B3, as a major substrate for nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), has also emerged as a nutritional intervention strategy for prevention of CVD.

NAMPT has been shown to exert activities of central importance to cellular energetics and innate immunity. Within the cell, NAMPT is the rate-limiting step in a salvage pathway of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) biosynthesis. By virtue of this role, it can regulate cellular levels of NAD+ and thereby NAD+-consuming enzymes. NAMPT is also released by a variety of cells, and elevated levels can be found in the systemic circulation of subjects with a range of inflammatory disorders.

Recent evidences suggest that, primarily due to its high MUFA content, olive oil is useful as an optimal fat for the modulation of CVD risk factors in the postprandial state. In addition, NAMPT has been shown to correlate with triglycerides in the fasting plasma, and a potential regulatory role for fatty acids on NAMPT expression has been proposed.

The global aim of the project is to assess whether olive oil (MUFA), compared to other dietary fatty acids (SFA and omega-3 PUFA) and in association with vitamin B3 could have benefits on NAMPT-related inflammation and atherosclerosis. We hope to provide important novel insights on the relationship among dietary fatty acids, NAD+ metabolism, and metabolic syndrome. This aim is expected to be achieved in one principal objective:

To elucidate the influence of olive oil (MUFA), butter (SFA) or fish oil (omega-3 PUFA) meals supplemented by vitamin B3 on postprandial NAMPT modulation and its involvement on leukocyte inflammatory response in subjects with metabolic syndrome.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evolution of Metabolic parameters in postprandial state

    Glucose, insulin, C-peptide, triglyceride, and NEFA levels in plasma will be measured at several time-points postprandially (t = 0, 2, 3, 4, and 6 h) using routine biochemical procedures. Different empiric indices of postprandial β-cell function and insulin sensitivity will be determined.

    Measured: t = 0, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours

  2. Evolution of Inflammatory markers in postprandial state

    Inflammatory markers will be measured in plasma at several time-points postprandially (t = 0, 2, 3, 4, and 6 h) using appropriate methods (EIA, ELISA, and/or Bioplex multiplex system), and will include NAMPT, the acute phase protein (hsCRP), PAI-1, fibrinogen, transferrin, albumin, MPO (myeloperoxidase), and cytokines such as TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, ICAM-1, MCP-1, leptin, and adiponectin, among other markers. For NAD+ content in plasma at fasting and postprandially, we will add 0.5 M ice-cold HClO4 to samples; after 2 min, we will collect 100 μL of supernatants by centrifugation at 3,000 g for 5 min, add 20 μL K2HPO4 (1 M) with cooling on ice and adjust pH to 7.2-7.4 with KOH. We will add 50 μL of supernatant to the reaction mixture containing 0.1 M sodiumpyrophosphate-semicarbazid (pH 8.8), absolute ethanol, and dH2O. We will assess NAD+ spectrophotometrically at 339 nm at 25 °C, as a mean difference in absorbance before and 6 min after addition of alcohol dehydrogenase.

    Measured: t = 0, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours

  3. Pharmacokinetic of Niacin and its metabolites

    Quantitation of nicotinic acid and its metabolites (nicotinamide, nicotinuric acid, and N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide) will be assessed in postprandial plasma by LC-MS/MS.

    Measured: t = 0, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evolution of Metabolic parameters in postprandial state (time frame: t = 0, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
