Trial summary

The goal of this study is to determine the relationship of apoprotein A-1 (apoA-I) glycation and development of diabetic atherosclerosis. ApoA-I is crucial for reverse cholesterol transport and anti-inflammation/anti-atherosclersis functions of HDL. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Impact of Glycation Modification of apoA-I on HDL Function and Atherogenesis in Type Diabetes Mellitus

The goal of this study is to determine the relationship of apoprotein A-1 (apoA-I) glycation and development of diabetic atherosclerosis.

ApoA-I is crucial for reverse cholesterol transport and anti-inflammation/anti-atherosclersis functions of HDL. However, apoA-I is easily subjected to non-enzymatic glycation modification in diabetic milleu. Our preliminary study has shown that apoA-I in HDL from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is significantly glycated, and site specific glycation of apoA-I impairs HDL function and is related to the development of atherosclerosis. To the best of our knowledge, less clinical information regarding apoA-I glycation and CAD has been reported. In this cross-sectional study, by consecutively enrolling diabetic patients with (two to three hundred) or without CAD (controls, six to eight hundred) in our hospital, we will isolate their serum HDL and perform a qualitative and quantitative proteomic analysis of apoA-I glycation. The relation of apoA-I glycation and HDL function and angiography-determined severity of CAD will be evaluated. Later, we will follow these diabetic patients to analyze the influence of apoA-I glycation on the outcome including plaque progression.

ApoA-I is crucial for reverse cholesterol transport and anti-inflammation/anti-atherosclersis functions of HDL. However, apoA-I is easily subjected to non-enzymatic glycation modification in diabetic milleu. Our preliminary study has shown that apoA-I in HDL from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is significantly glycated, and site specific glycation of apoA-I impairs HDL function and is related to the severity of atherosclerosis. To the best of our knowledge, less clinical information regarding apoA-I glycation and CAD has been reported. In this cross-sectional study, we will consecutively enroll several hundred diabetic patients (two to three hundred) with no CAD (less than stenosis of 25% in coronary CTA) as controls. And we will also consecutively enroll several hundred (six to eight hundred) angiographically established T2DM patients with CAD (stenosis of >50% in coronary angiography). Serum HDL of all participants will be isolated and a qualitative and quantitative proteomic analysis of apoA-I glycation will be performed by mass spectrometry. The relation of apoA-I glycaiton and HDL function and angioraphy-determined severity of CAD will be evaluated. Later, we will follow these diabetic patients for approximately two years to analyze the influence of apoA-I glycation on the clinical outcomes (stroke, myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure, death due to cardiovascular causes, etc) including plaque progression.

  • overnight fastingOther

    All blood samples were taken on the day of cardiac catheterization after overnight fasting.

Study groups in NCT05659043
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
T2DM with CADDiagnosis of T2DM was made according to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association. The patients were tested by angiography, with CAD diagnosed if luminal diameter narrowing was estimated visually at ≥50% in a major epicardial coronary artery.
Receives: Other: overnight fasting
T2DM without CADDiagnosis of T2DM was made according to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association. These subjects had no history of ischemic heart disease (acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, chronic stable angina, previous percutaneous or surgical coronary revascularization, heart failure) and received CCTA in the outpatient clinics due to suspected CAD or other causes. And the luminal diameter narrowing was estimated by CCTA at ≤30%.
Receives: Other: overnight fasting

What is being measured

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

  1. Qualitative and Quantitative Mapping ApoA-I Glycation Modification Profiles

    One of aims is understanding the importance of apoA-I glycation modification in HDL dysfunction and the progression of diabetic CAD, a comprehensive analysis of apoA-I glycation modification requires numerous levels of information, including (1) the type of glycation modification, (2) glycation localization, (3) glycation frequency in the subject cohort, and (4) the extent of glycation. The other aim is identifying the crucial pathogenic glycation sites of apoA-I based on apoA-I glycation modification profiles. Defining the chemistry of the pathologic glycation sites of apoA-I during progression of CAD will allow us to target specific epitopes using therapeutic antibodies or small molecules at every stage of disease.

    Measured: completion date - December 2021

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Individual ApoA-I Glycation Profiles Variability and Cardiovascular Events

    Individual ApoA-I Glycation Profiles Variability is evaluated annually,and The incidence of MACCE (major adverse cardio and cerebral vascular events), lesion associated events (target lesion myocardial infarction, target lesion faliure, target vessel Revascularization, etc. observed continuously for 3 years.

    Measured: December 2023

What does the primary outcome measure?

Qualitative and Quantitative Mapping ApoA-I Glycation Modification Profiles (time frame: completion date - December 2021). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
