A Pro12Ala polymorphism in the human peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 is associated with combined hyperlipidaemia in obesity

OBJECTIVE: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 (PPAR gamma 2) is an important regulator of adipose tissue metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The aim of this investigation was to determine whether a PPAR gamma 2 Pro12Ala polymorphism was associated with cardiovascular risk factors (obesity, blood pressure, diabetes and blood lipids) in Western Australian Caucasians (n=663). DESIGN: Subjects were selected from two population studies (the Carotid Ultrasound Disease Assessment Study (CUDAS) and Busselton Population Health Survey) on the basis of body mass index (BMI). 292 obese (BMI > or =30 kg/m) and 371 lean (BMI <25 kg /m) subjects were studied. METHODS: Blood pressure and anthropometric measurements were collected from all participants, as well as a fasting venous blood sample. Biochemical measurements (high-density lipoprotein (HDL)- and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides) and PPAR gamma 2 Pro12Ala genotype were also determined. RESULTS: Obese Pro/Ala and Ala/Ala subjects had lower levels of HDL-cholesterol (P=0.032) and a trend towards higher levels of triglycerides (P=0.055) compared with obese Pro/Pro subjects. In the obese group, the Ala allele was significantly associated with the presence of combined hyperlipidaemia (odds ratio = 2.33, P=0.042). There was no significant difference in the frequency of the polymorphism between lean and obese groups (P=0.069). No association was observed between Pro12Ala genotype and obesity, blood pressure or diabetes in either group. CONCLUSIONS: Obese carriers of the Pro12Ala polymorphism have a greater risk of developing combined hyperlipidaemia, possibly due to impaired activation of PPAR gamma target genes. The Pro12Ala polymorphism is not directly associated with obesity, hypertension or diabetes in this population.     

Studies of the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 (PPAR-gamma2) gene in relation to insulin sensitivity among glucose tolerant caucasians

Aims/hypothesis: We examined whether the Pro12-Ala polymorphism of the human peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ2 (PPAR- γ 2) gene was related to altered insulin sensitivity among glucose-tolerant subjects or a lower accumulated incidence or prevalence of IGT and Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus among Scandinavian Caucasians. Methods: The Pro12Ala polymorphism was examined using PCR-RFLP. Whole-body insulin sensitivity measured under hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic conditions was estimated in a population-based sample of 616 glucose tolerant Swedish Caucasian men at age 70. In addition, insulin sensitivity index was measured using IVGTT and Bergman minimal modelling in a population-based sample of 364 young healthy Danish Caucasians. Finally, we evaluated whether the polymorphism predicted Type II diabetes and IGT in 841 seventy-year-old Swedish men. A case-control study was carried out in 654 unrelated Danish Type II diabetic patients and 742 Danish glucose tolerant subjects matched for age and sex. Results: Whole-body insulin sensitivity was significantly improved in carriers compared with non-carriers of the Ala-allele of the codon 12 polymorphism in Swedish Caucasian men (6.0 ± 2.5 vs 5.6 ± 2.5 mg · kg^–1· min^–1· [mU/l]^–1· 100, p = 0.044). The same tendency, but not significant, was observed in the insulin sensitivity index among the group of young healthy Danish Caucasians. The incidence of Type II diabetes and IGT among the Swedish subjects at the age of 70 was similar in the three genotype-groups of the Pro12Ala variant and the Ala-allele was not related to a lower prevalence of Type II diabetes in Danish Caucasians. Conclusion/interpretation: The Ala-allele of the PPAR-γ2 polymorphism is associated with improved whole body insulin sensitivity among Swedish Caucasians.

Effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 Pro12Ala polymorphism on body fat distribution in female Korean subjects

The effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPAR gamma 2) Pro12Ala (P12A) polymorphism on body mass index (BMI) and type 2 diabetes are well documented; however, until now, only a few studies have evaluated the effects of this polymorphism on body fat distribution. This study was conducted to elucidate the effects of this polymorphism on computed tomography (CT)-measured body fat distribution and other obesity-related parameters in Korean female subjects. The frequencies of PPAR gamma 2 genotypes were: PP type, 93.0%; PA type, 6.8%; and AA type, 0.2%. The frequency of the A allele was 0.035. Body weight (P = .012), BMI (P = .012), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (P = .001) were significantly higher in subjects with PA/AA compared with subjects with PP. When body composition was analyzed by bioimpedance analysis, lean body mass and body water content were similar between the 2 groups. However, body fat mass (P = .003) and body fat percent (P = .025) were significantly higher in subjects with PA/AA compared with subjects with PP. Among overweight subjects with BMI of greater than 25, PA/AA was associated with significantly higher abdominal subcutaneous fat (P = .000), abdominal visceral fat (P = .031), and subcutaneous upper and lower thigh adipose tissue (P = .010 and .013). However, among lean subjects with BMI of less than 25, no significant differences associated with PPAR gamma 2 genotype were found, suggesting that the fat-accumulating effects of the PA/AA genotype were evident only among overweight subjects, but not among lean subjects. When serum lipid profiles, glucose, and liver function indicators were compared among overweight subjects, no significant difference associated with PPAR gamma 2 genotype was found. Changes in body weight, BMI, WHR, and body fat mass were measured among overweight subjects who finished a 1-month weight lose program of a hypocaloric diet and exercise; no significant differences associated with PPAR gamma 2 genotype were found. The results of this study suggest that the PPAR gamma 2 PA/AA genotype is associated with increased subcutaneous and visceral fat areas in overweight Korean female subjects, but does not significantly affect serum biochemical parameters and outcomes of weight loss programs.     

Pro12Ala mutation in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 (PPARgamma2) and severe obesity: a case-control study

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association of the Pro12Ala mutation in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 with severe obesity and the features of the metabolic syndrome in a population-based sample of Caucasians. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: The study is based on a case-control design: 95 non-diabetic severely obese (body mass index, BMI > 35 kg/m2) cases and 280 normal weight (BMI < 25 kg/m2), age- and sex-matched controls selected from the same population were studied. Height, weight, waist circumference, as well as blood pressure were measured according to a standard protocol. BMI at age 25 y was calculated on the basis of current height and reported weight at age 25 y Biochemical measurements included fasting glucose, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and insulin. DNA analysis was conducted by PCR and gel electrophoresis. RESULTS: Age and gender distribution were similar in obese and normal weight participants. The percentage of people with the Pro12Ala mutation was not significantly different in obese or normal weight participants (20% and 15%, respectively; P = 0.32). Conversely, in obese participants with obesity starting in early adulthood (ie with BMI at age 25 above 26.9kg/m2 which represents the median of the whole obese group), the Pro12Ala mutation was observed significantly more frequently than in the normal weight controls (29% vs 15%; chi square = 4.5, P < 0.05; odds ratio 2.4; 95% CI 1.03-5.36). No association of the Pro12Ala variant with any of the component of the metabolic syndrome measured in the study was observed in either obese, juvenile obese or normal weight participants. CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study indicate that the Pro12Ala mutation does not play a major role as a determinant of severe obesity and/or features of the metabolic syndrome in the general population. However, this mutation may be of greater importance as a contributor to early onset obesity.     

The Pro12Ala variant of the PPARG gene is a risk factor for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma/alpha agonist-induced edema in type 2 diabetic patients

CONTEXT: Activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs)-gamma by thiazolidinediones (pioglitazone, rosiglitazone) and dual-acting PPARalpha/gamma agonists (pargluva, ragaglitazar) is a widely used pharmacological principle to treat insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Clinically, however, fluid retention and edema are worrying side effects with these drugs. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the present study was to investigate any variation in the PPARG and PPARA genes associated with the risk of fluid retention and development of peripheral edema in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with the dual-acting PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar. DESIGN: Single-nucleotide polymorphism and haplotype analyses of the PPARA and PPARG genes were performed on DNA obtained from 345 type 2 diabetic patients randomized to 26-wk monotherapy with the dual-acting PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar. RESULTS: At 26 wk, edema was recorded in 48 of the patients (14%) treated with ragaglitazar, and Cox regression analyses identified the common Pro12Ala variant of the PPARG gene as biologically the most important risk factor (hazard ratio 4.42, P = 0.0081) for edema. Other risk factors included female gender (hazard ratio 3.34, P = 0.0005) and weight change during treatment (hazard ratio 1.20, P = 0.0017). CONCLUSIONS: A population-attributable risk of approximately 50% for the Pro12Pro genotype indicates that testing for the Pro12Ala of the PPARG gene in addition to the already identified clinical risk factors may become a useful tool to further reduce the risk of PPARgamma agonist-induced fluid retention and edema in patients with type 2 diabetes.     

Ala12Ala genotype of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 protects against atherosclerosis

A mutation in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 (PPARgamma2) gene with a cytosine to guanine substitution results in an exchange of proline (Pro) with alanine (Ala) in exon B (codon 12) of this gene. This polymorphism has been associated with high insulin sensitivity and low body weight, but no data have been published to date about its effect on early atherosclerosis. We investigated the relationship of the Pro(12)Ala polymorphism to early atherosclerosis, measured by the intima-media thickness (IMT). A total of 622 subjects were included, aged 40-70 yr, who were participants of the RIAD (Risk factors in Impaired glucose tolerance for Atherosclerosis and Diabetes) study and were at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Altogether, 449 of the subjects had the common genotype (Pro(12)Pro), 162 had the Pro(12)Ala genotype, and 11 the Ala(12)Ala genotype. IMT was significantly decreased in subjects with the Ala(12)Ala genotype compared with subjects with the other two genotypes. Body mass index, free fatty acid levels, and leukocyte count were lower in subjects with the Ala(12)Ala genotype compared with subjects with the Pro(12)Pro or Pro(12)Ala genotypes. In multivariate analysis, the Ala(12)Ala genotype was a significant independent determinant of IMT. Furthermore, we demonstrated specific expression of the PPARgamma2 gene in human atherosclerotic lesions as well as in cultured primary macrophages and foam cells. In conclusion, our data suggest that the Ala(12)Ala genotype of the PPARgamma2 gene may protect from early atherosclerosis in subjects at risk for diabetes.     

Association between Pro12Ala polymorphism of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 and myocardial infarction in the Chinese Han population

BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 (PPAR-gamma 2) is a nuclear receptor that plays an important role in adipocyte differentiation, energy metabolism, and homeostasis. The Pro12Ala polymorphism of PPAR-gamma 2 is associated with decreased risk of diabetes mellitus. Presumably, it may have a protective effect on myocardial infarction (MI). HYPOTHESIS: The purpose of the study was to explore the association between the Pro12Ala polymorphism and the risk of MI in the Chinese population. METHODS: The Pro12Ala polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism among 844 subjects, including 218 patients with MI and 626 controls. Clinical parameters such as fasting serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, and plasma glucose were detected by autoanalyzer assay. Waist circumference, weight, height, and blood pressure (BP) were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. RESULTS: The frequencies of the Ala allele in the MI and control groups were 0.053 and 0.032, respectively. There was a significant difference in genotype and allele frequency distribution between the two groups (after adjustment for age, gender, BP, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and smoking, odds ratio [OR] = 2.51, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.26-5.00, p = 0.009). In the group with MI, the difference in frequency of the Ala allele in women (0.241) compared with that of men (0.056) was significant (OR = 4.29, 95% CI: 1.96-9.37, p < 0.001). There was no relationship between the Pro12Ala polymorphism and waist circumference, weight, BMI, BP, or triglycerides (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that Pro12Ala polymorphism is associated with increased risk of MI.     

Glucose transport and phosphorylation in skeletal muscle in obesity: insight from a muscle-specific positron emission tomography model

A controversial area in understanding the contribution of obesity to skeletal muscle insulin resistance is the distribution of control of glucose metabolism across proximal steps of glucose delivery, trans-membrane transport, and intracellular trapping via phosphorylation. Dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of skeletal muscle [(18)F]2-deoxy-2-D-glucose ((18)F-FDG) uptake provides an in vivo method for assessment of these steps in humans. In the current study we have examined the application of a four-compartment skeletal muscle-specific model for assessment of (18)F-FDG metabolism that takes interstitial (18)F-FDG kinetics into account and compared this to the classic three-compartment model in lean and obese volunteers. We assessed the effects of insulin infusions at three rates (0, 40, and 120 mU/m(2).min). In comparison with the classic model, the skeletal muscle-specific model reveals more clearly definable effects of insulin on transmembrane glucose transport and an impairment of this response in obesity. Compared with the classic model for assessment of (18)F-FDG metabolism, both the skeletal muscle-specific and the classic model indicate that, with respect to distribution of control, glucose phosphorylation has an important effect at low to moderate levels of insulin stimulation in both lean and obese subjects.     

Association of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 Pro12Ala but not the C1431T gene variants with lower body mass index in Type 2 diabetes

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor involved in lipid metabolism, adipocyte differentiation and regulation of insulin sensitivity, and is associated with Type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The association of the C1431T silent mutation and the Pro12Ala missense transversion within the PPARgamma gene with the development of T2DM or obesity has often yielded contradictory results. We examined the association of the PPARgamma Pro12Ala and C1431T gene variants and their haplotypes with the susceptibility to T2DM. This was a retrospective study involving 491 T2DM patients and 400 age- and gender-matched controls. Pro12Ala and C1431T genotyping was done by PCR-RFLP analysis. Comparable frequencies of the mutant 12Ala (0.07 vs 0.08, p=0.216) and 1431T (0.12 vs 0.10, p=0.189) alleles, and Pro12Ala (p=0.218) and C1431T (p=0.421) genotypes were seen between patients and in nondiabetic control subjects. While no difference was noted in the distribution of Pro12Ala- C1431T haplotypes and genotypes between patients and controls, the PPARgamma 12Ala, but not 1431T, allele was significantly associated with lower body mass index (BMI) (< or =25.0) among patients. Regression analysis confirmed the association of the Pro12Ala (odds ratio =5.340; 95% confidence interval =1.044-27.311) with normal (BMI<25.0) but not with overweight/obesity among T2DM patients. Despite its association with lower BMI among T2DM patients, the PPARgamma gene does not appear to markedly influence Type 2 diabetes among Tunisian subjects.     

A possible association of Pro12Ala polymorphism in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2 gene with obesity in native Javanese in Indonesia

BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) is a nuclear hormone receptor that serves as a master regulator of adipocytes-specific genes contributing to adipocytes differentiation, susceptibility to obesity, and insulin sensitivity. The substitution of proline to alanine at codon 12 of the PPAR gamma2 gene (Pro12Ala polymorphism) is most frequently identified and the associations with diabetes, obesity, and other clinical parameters have been reported and discussed in several ethnic groups. Among native Javanese ethnicity, however, there is no report about this polymorphism. AIMS AND METHODS: Aims of this study were to estimate the allele frequency of the Pro12Ala polymorphism of PPAR gamma2 gene among native Javanese in Indonesia and to investigate the relationship between this polymorphism and obesity or diabetes. This study included 540 native Javanese subjects consisting of 337 diabetic patients and 203 normal glucose tolerance subjects. Both groups included totally 160 obese subjects (body mass index > or = 25 kg/m(2)). PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used for the genotype determination. RESULTS: The allele frequency of Pro12Ala polymorphism in PPAR gamma2 gene among native Javanese is lower than that in other ethnic groups. No association is seen between the Pro12Ala and diabetes (0.01 vs 0.017%, p = 0.404), a trend of the higher BMI was observed in Pro12Ala carriers in nondiabetic subjects, although this association is limited by small numbers. CONCLUSION: In this study, no association is seen between the Pro12Ala polymorphism in PPAR gamma2 gene and diabetes; a weak association with obesity is seen.     

Endurance training-induced changes in the insulin response to oral glucose are associated with the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 Pro12Ala genotype in men but not in women

The present study sought to investigate, in sedentary men and women, (a) whether a common functional gene variant (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 [PPARgamma2] Pro12Ala) predicts insulin action and (b) whether improvements in insulin action in response to endurance exercise training are associated with PPARgamma2 Pro12Ala. Sedentary, 50- to 75-year-old men and women (N = 73) were genotyped and underwent oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) before and after 6 months of endurance training. At baseline, men heterozygous for the Pro12Ala variant had a greater OGTT insulin area under the curve (AUC) as compared with Pro12 homozygous men (P = .009). Endurance training resulted in a significantly greater improvement in insulin AUC in Pro12Ala heterozygous men as compared with Pro12 homozygous men (P = .003) despite no genotype-specific differences with respect to training-induced changes in body weight, body mass index, and percent body fat. No differences between genotype groups were present at baseline or in response to training in women. Training did not alter the OGTT glucose AUC for the group as a whole, and the baseline, final, and change in glucose AUC were not dependent on PPARgamma2 genotype and/or sex. In conclusion, these findings suggest that sedentary men with the PPARgamma2 Pro12Ala variant have lower insulin action on glucose disposal as compared with their counterparts. However, these men are particularly responsive with respect to the magnitude of endurance training-induced improvement in insulin action.     

Roles of skeletal muscle and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors in the development and treatment of obesity

Metabolic disturbances associated with alterations in lipid metabolism, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and syndrome X, are becoming more and more prominent in Western societies. Despite extensive research in such pathologies and their molecular basis, we are still far from completely understanding how these metabolic perturbations are produced and interrelate and, consequently, how to treat them efficiently. The discovery that adipose tissue is, in fact, an endocrine tissue able to secrete active molecules related to lipid homeostasis--the adipokines--has dramatically changed our understanding of the molecular events that take place in such diseases. This knowledge has been further improved by the discovery of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors and their ligands, at present commonly used for the clinical treatment of lipid disturbances. However, a key point remains to be solved, and that is the role of muscle lipid metabolism, notably because of the main role played by this tissue in the development of such pathologies. In addition, a reciprocal regulation between adipose tissue and skeletal muscle has been proposed. New discoveries on the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-delta in skeletal muscle functions as well as the secretory capabilities of muscle, now considered as an endocrine tissue, have changed the general point of view on lipid homeostasis, opening new and promising doors for the treatment of lipid disorders.     

Association between the Pro12Ala variant of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 gene and increased 24-h diastolic blood pressure in obese patients with type II diabetes

The aim of the study was to examine an association between the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma2 gene and blood pressure values assessed by 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in obese patients with long-lasting type II diabetes. Two hundred and fourteen obese patients (95 men and 119 women) with above 10-year history of type II diabetes were recruited for the study. In all the patients, ABPM was performed and other parameters, including age, body mass index (BMI), waist/hip ratio (WHR), haemoglobin A1c (HbA(1c)), serum lipids and creatinine were also evaluated. The Pro12Ala polymorphism was analysed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Two subgroups of patients were compared: (a) Pro/Pro: homozygotic Pro/Pro (n=154) and (b) Ala: Ala allele carriers (Ala/Ala+Ala/Pro) (n=60). The studied groups were not different when age, BMI, WHR, HbA(1c), lipids, creatinine and frequency of hypertension were compared. A similar ratio of patients from both groups were treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, calcium channel blockers, diuretics, beta-blockers and alpha-blockers. A difference was observed in a mean 24-h (Ala: 71.9+/-8.1 vs Pro/Pro: 69.4+/-7.8 mm Hg, P=0.034) and a mean night time (Ala: 67.1+/-7.8 vs Pro/Pro: 64.5+/-8.4 mm Hg, P=0.025) diastolic blood pressure, which was significantly higher in patients with Ala variant. There was also a trend towards a higher mean daytime diastolic blood pressure in this group. It seems that the Pro12Ala variant is associated with an increased mean 24-h diastolic blood pressure in obese diabetic patients. Different reaction for antihypertensive medication depending on a variant of the PPAR-gamma2 gene should also be considered as a possible cause of the presented results.     

Effect of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma 2 pro(12)ala variant on obesity, glucose homeostasis, and blood pressure in members of familial type 2 diabetic kindreds

The Pro(12)Ala (P12A) variant of exon B of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(2) (PPAR gamma) been variably associated with obesity, insulin sensitivity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, but its role in insulin resistance-associated traits remains uncertain. We tested the hypothesis that this variant is associated with the insulin resistance syndrome by genotyping 619 members of 52 familial type 2 diabetes kindreds. A subset of 124 family members underwent iv glucose tolerance tests and minimal model determination of insulin sensitivity. We estimated the frequency of the A12 allele as 0.12, within the range observed in random Caucasian samples. We were unable to demonstrate any effect on direct measures of insulin sensitivity, and no trait was linked to markers near PPAR gamma on chromosome 3q. However, body mass index, serum total cholesterol levels, triglyceride levels, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and glucose concentration showed at least a trend to association (P < 0.1) when tested separately for a family-based association. When these 6 traits were included in a multivariate analysis, body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, triglyceride levels, and glucose concentration remained significantly associated with the P12A variant (P < 0.05), whereas the effect of P12A on liability for diabetes was not significant. The predicted means for each trait and each genotype suggested that the P12A variant acted most like a recessive mutation, with the major effect among homozygous individuals who comprise only 1--2% of the population. We confirm an association of the P12A variant in traits commonly ascribed to the insulin resistance syndrome, but not with direct measures of insulin sensitivity. The tendency for this variant to act in a recessive manner with effects on multiple traits may explain the inconsistent associations noted in previous studies.     

吡格列酮的疗效与PPARγ基因Pro12Ala多态性与相关性的初步研究

目的探讨吡格列酮的疗效与PPARγ基因Pro12Ala多态性的关系。方法选取中国北京地区2型糖尿病（T2DM）患者112例,在原有治疗和饮食、运动保持不变的前提下,加吡格列酮30mg每天一次口服。观察10周。应用聚合酶链反应-限制性片断多态性方法进行基因型测定。结果经吡格列酮治疗后,空腹血糖（FPG）、糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）、血清甘油三酯（TG）、收缩压和舒张压显著降低;高密度脂蛋白-胆固醇（HDL-C）和体质指数（BMI）明显增高。按PPARγ基因Pro12Ala基因型分类后发现,与治疗前比较,PP组治疗后的FPG、HbA1c、TG、收缩压和舒张压降低,HDL-C和BMI明显增高;而PA＋AA组中仅FPG降低。结论吡格列酮可使T2DM患者血糖得到控制,血脂有所改善,血压下降,但亦可带来体重增加;吡格列酮的治疗效果可能与PPARγ基因Pro12Ala多态性有关。
