Inflammatory Status

Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased cardiovascular (CV) risk, due not only to the traditional risk factors (hypertension, insulin resistance/diabetes, obesity, smoking), but to the inflammatory status as well. The blockade of interleukin-6 (IL-6) can regulate the glucose metabolism, reducing the glucose level and insulin resistance (IR). This beneficial effect is seen more in patients with normal values of body mass index (BMI), compared to the obese population.Objectives:Given the mentioned existing data, we aim to demonstrate the positive effect of IL-6 inhibitors in active RA patients with normal or increased BMI.Methods:We recruited 56 consecutive patients with definite and active RA, non-responders/partial responders to conventional synthetic Drug Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (csDMARDs)/biological therapy. For a period of 52 weeks, patients received subcutaneous Tocilizumab (TCZ) in a dose of 162mg once a week, according to European League Anti Rheumatism (EULAR) recommendation and National Protocol. We assessed demographics, RA-related parameters (clinical, inflammatory and immune) and metabolic markers, as well as the peripheral response to insulin, quantified by Homeostasis Model Assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and the Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI). We did not include in the study the patients known with diabetes mellitus (DM) and those undergoing glucocorticoids.Results:After 52 weeks of treatment, most of the patients showed a statistically significant reduction of HOMA-IR (3.61 ± 1.21 at the onset vs. 2.45 ± 1.46 at the end of the study, p<0.001), while QUICKI registered a slight increase (0.32 ± 0.01 at the onset vs. 0.33 ± 0.01 at the end of the study, p<0.001). Also, the decrease in insulin and glucose levels were more obvious in patients with normal BMI, strictly related to disease activity.Conclusion:Long-term administration of TCZ in active RA is associated with a significant reduction of disease activity and IR, especially in normal weight patients. This confirms that obesity, as a CV risk factor, represents one of the main causes of IR.References:[1]Castañeda S, Remuzgo-Martínez S, López-Mejías R et al.

Background Obesity has become a rapidly growing epidemic worldwide, increasing the risk of morbidity and mortality in adolescents. Obesity is due to an expansion of adipose tissue mass, which is an important source of cytokines and contributes to an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6). Interleukin-6 is significantly increased in obesity and may lead to a state of insulin resistance.Objective To assess for a correlation between IL-6 levels and insulin resistance in obese adolescentsMethods We conducted a cross-sectional study from January to April 2012 in Manado, North Sulawesi. Subjects were either obese or normal body mass index (BMI) teens aged 13-18 years. Data collected were anthropometric status, BMI, and blood specimens for fasting plasma glucose levels, fasting insulin levels, and IL-6 levels. Insulin resistance was expressed as homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) level >2.77. Data was analyzed by Pearson’s correlation and linear regression tests to assess for a possible correlation between IL-6 levels and insulin resistance.Results The mean BMI in the obese group was 31.21 (SD 3.61) kg/m2 while the mean BMI in the normal group was 19.52 (SD 2.38) kg/m2. There was no significant association between IL-6 and the occurrence of insulin resistance (P=0.309). The log regression coefficient value of IL-6 was negative (b = -0.329).Conclusion There is no correlation between IL-6 levels and incidence of insulin resistance in obese adolescents.

Abstract Objective Cardiometabolic diseases are the number one cause of mortality, accounting for over one third of all deaths in the United States. Cardiometabolic risk further increases with psychosocial stress exposure and during menopausal transition in women. Because disease risk and stress burden are associated with aberrant immune signaling, we hypothesized that responses of interleukin-6 (IL-6) to psychosocial stress may predict longitudinal cardiometabolic outcomes in perimenopausal women. Methods We conducted post hoc analyses in 151 perimenopausal or early postmenopausal women participants in a previously completed study. At study onset, participants underwent the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST), and plasma IL-6 was measured repeatedly before and during the 1 hour post-TSST. Subsequently, participants were randomly assigned to either hormonal treatment (HT) or placebo and followed for 12 months to determine longitudinal changes in cardiometabolic biomarkers. Results Greater IL-6 reactivity to stress, measured with baseline-adjusted area under the curve, predicted 12-month decrease in flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery (P = 0.0005), a measure of endothelial-dependent vascular function, but not in endothelial-independent function measured with nitroglycerin-mediated dilatation (P = 0.17). Greater baseline IL-6 levels predicted 12-month increase in insulin resistance based on the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance score (P = 0.0045) and in the number of criteria met for metabolic syndrome (P = 0.0008). These predictions were not moderated by HT. Conclusions Greater baseline IL-6 levels as well as its reactivity to stress may predict worsening in distinct cardiometabolic biomarkers as women transition to menopause. Interleukin-6 reactivity predicts decline in endothelial-dependent vascular function, whereas baseline IL-6 presages accumulation of metabolic risk.
