概要: 金沢大学附属病院循環器内科<br />Aim: To assess whether combining measurements obtained from carotid ultrasonography in addition to th e age, creatinine, and ejection fraction (ACEF) score would improve the predictive ability of outcome in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).\nMethods: We examined 264 patients with ACS (194 men; mean age: 68±11 years) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. The carotid plaque score (cPS) and intima–media thickness (cIMT) were determined by carotid ultrasonography. The modified ACEF score was calculated using the following formula: (age/left ventricular ejection fraction) +1 point for every 10 mL/min reduction in creatinine clearance below 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2. The endpoint of this study was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACEs), defined as all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stoke, and target vessel revascularization.\nResults: During the median 4-year follow-up, there were 121 incidents of MACEs. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that cPS ≥9.8 (hazard ratio [HR], 1.52; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01–2.31) and ACEF score ≥1.20 (HR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.11–2.39) were significantly associated with MACEs, whereas cIMT was not. When the new combined risk score was calculated by multiplying the cPS by the modified ACEF score, the freedom from MACEs at 5 years was 71% and 31% for the lower and higher scores, respectively (p<0.001). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve for MACEs for the ACEF score, cPS, and combined risk score were 0.65, 0.66, and 0.71, respectively (p<0.05).\nConclusion: The cPS offers an incremental predictive value when combined to the simple ACEF score in ACS.<br />This article distributed under the terms of the latest version of CC BY-NC-SA defined by the Creative Commons Attribution License. 続きを見る

概要: 金沢大学附属病院先端医療開発センター<br />Aim: Sitosterolemia is an extremely rare, autosomal recessive disease characterized by high plas ma cholesterols and plant sterols because of increased absorption of dietary cholesterols and sterols from the intestine, and decreased excretion from biliary tract. Previous study indicated that sitosterolemic patients might be vulnerable to post-prandial hyperlipidemia, including high remnant-like lipoprotein particles (RLP) level. Here we evaluate whether a loading dietary fat increases a post-prandial RLP cholesterol level in sitosterolemic patients compared to heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemic patients (FH).\nMethods: We recruit total of 20 patients: 5 patients with homozygous sitosterolemia, 5 patients with heterozygous sitosterolemia, and 10 patients with heterozygous FH as controls from May 2015 to March 2018 at Kanazawa University Hospital, Japan. All patients receive Oral Fat Tolerance Test (OFTT) cream (50 g/body surface area square meter, orally only once, and the cream includes 34% of fat, 74 mg of cholesterol, and rich in palmitic and oleic acids. The primary endpoint is the change of a RLP cholesterol level after OFTT cream loading between sitosterolemia and FH. We measure them at baseline, and 2, 4, and 6 hours after the oral fat loading.\nResults: This is the first study to evaluate whether sitosterolemia patients have a higher post-prandial RLP cholesterol level compared to heterozygous FH patients.\nConclusion: The result may become an additional evidence to restrict dietary cholesterols for sitosterolemia.

概要: 金沢大学附属病院循環器内科<br />Aim: The Japan Atherosclerosis Society (JAS) guidelines for the prevention of atherosclerotic disease s 2012 (JAS2012) proposed lipid management targets; however, less data is available regarding the attainment rates of each target in community-based settings. Therefore, we assessed the attainment rates of lipid management targets among subjects who underwent Japanese specific health checkups.\nMethods: A total of 85,716 subjects (male=29,282, 34.2%) aged 40–74 years who underwent specific health checkups from 2012 to 2014 in Kanazawa city, Japan, were included in this study. We evaluated the attainment rates of the lipid management targets according to the JAS2012 guideline and investigated the clinical characteristics of the subjects without achieving the targets.\nResults: The target for LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) was the least attained in all risk categories, 89, 72, 50, and 34% for category I, II, III, and secondary prevention, respectively, in 2014. In addition, these rates inversely correlated with the grade of risk categories (p-value for trends <0.001). Attainment rate of the LDL-C target in the suspected chronic kidney disease (CKD) group was significantly lower than in the groups with diabetes, stroke, or absolute risk in category III (49.2, 60.3, 63.5, 54.4%, respectively, p-value <0.001 for each). Moreover, the attainment rate of the LDL-C target was significantly lower in subjects that did not receive lipid-lowering therapy than in those who received it in the secondary prevention (27.7 and 40.6%, respectively, p-value <0.001).\nConclusions: Lipid management is inadequate in community-based settings, particularly, in subjects with CKD and secondary prevention.<br />This article distributed under the terms of the latest version of CC BY-NC-SA defined by the Creative Commons Attribution License. 続きを見る

概要: 金沢大学附属病院循環器内科<br />We have learned that low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is the cause of atherosclerosis from v arious aspects, including a single case with familial hypercholesterolemia, other cases with different types of Mendelian dyslipidemias, large-scale randomized controlled trials using LDL cholesterol lowering therapies, and Mendelian randomization studies using common as well as rare variants associated with LDL cholesterol levels. There is no doubt that determinations of genotypes in lipid-associated genes have contributed not only to the genetic diagnosis for Mendelian dyslipidemias but also to the discoveries of novel therapeutic targets. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that such genetic information could provide useful clues for the risk prediction as well as risk stratification in general and in particular population. We provide the current understanding of genetic analyses relating to plasma lipids and coronary artery disease.<br />This article distributed under the terms of the latest version of CC BY-NC-SA defined by the Creative Commons Attribution License. 続きを見る

概要: 金沢大学医薬保健研究域医学系<br />Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia (ARH) is an extremely rare inherited disorder, the cause of which is mutations in the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor adaptor protein 1 (LDLRAP1) gene. Only 36 families with 14 different mutations have been reported in the literature to date. The clinical phenotype of ARH is milder than that of homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) caused by LDL receptor gene mutations. Recently, the lipoprotein metabolism of ARH was investigated in both humans and mice by several investigators, including ourselves. Based on these findings the preserved clearance of LDL receptor-dependent very-LDL (VLDL) may be a possible mechanism underlying the responsiveness to statins and the milder phenotype of ARH. Although ARH has been described as being “recessive,” several studies, including ours, have indicated that a heterozygous carrier status of the LDLRAP1 gene is associated with mild hypercholesterolemia and exacerbates the phenotype of FH resulting from LDL receptor gene mutations. This review summarizes current understanding regarding ARH and its causative gene, LDLRAP1, and attempts to provide new insight into novel pharmacological targets for treating dyslipidemic patients. © Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis.

概要: 金沢大学医薬保健研究域医学系<br />We herein report a case of marked transient hypercholesterolemia in a man receiving low-dose mitotan e as adjuvant chemotherapy for adrenocortical carcinoma.A 58-year-old man without any clinical symptoms or history of hypercholesterolemia was admitted to our hospital to treat an adrenocortical carcinoma detected on general screening using computed tomography. He reported no chest symptom and did not exhibit any established risk factors for coronary artery disease, such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension or relevant family history, with the exception of current smoking, on admission. A stress electrocardiogram showed negative findings. The left adrenal tumor as well as left kidney, spleen and distal portion of the pancreas were subsequently resected using radical surgery. The histopathological findings confirmed the preoperative diagnosis of adrenocortical carcinoma. After the operation, treatment with low-dose mitotane (1g/day) was introduced as adjuvant chemotherapy. Interestingly, the patient developed marked hyper-LDL cholesterolemia at a level equivalent to that of familial hypercholesterolemia (LDL cholesterol level ~ 300 mg/ dL) following the introduction of mitotane, without evidence of primary or secondary hypercholesterolemia due to other causes. A coronary angiogram performed to assess the new-onset angina revealed three-vessel disease, which was later revascularized via percutaneous coronary intervention eight months after the start of mitotane therapy. The cholesterol level normalized with the suspension of mitotane. This case suggests that mitotane can cause severe hypercholesterolemia, potentially resulting in coronary atherosclerosis. © 2014, Japan Atherosclerosis Society.

概要: 金沢大学医薬保健研究域医学系<br />Blood lipid levels are highly heritable and modifiable risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD ), and are the leading cause of death worldwide. These facts have motivated human genetic association studies that have the substantial potential to define the risk factors that are causal and to identify pathways and therapeutic targets for lipids and CAD. The success of the HapMap project that provided an extensive catalog of human genetic variations and the development of microarray based genotyping chips (typically containing variations with allele frequencies >5%) facilitated common variant association study (CVAS; formerly termed genomewide association study, GWAS) identifying disease-associated variants in a genome-wide manner. To date, 157 loci associated with blood lipids and 46 loci with CAD have been successfully identified, accounting for approximately 12%– 14% of heritability for lipids and 10% of heritability for CAD. However, there is yet a major challenge termed “missing heritability problem,” namely the observation that loci detected by CVAS explain only a small fraction of the inferred genetic variations. To explain such missing portions, focuses in genetic association studies have shifted from common to rare variants. However, it is challenging to apply rare variant association study (RVAS) in an unbiased manner because such variants typically lack the sufficient number to be identified statistically. In this review, we provide a current understanding of the genetic architecture mostly derived from CVAS, and several updates on the progress and limitations of RVAS for lipids and CAD. © 2016, Japan Atherosclerosis Society.

概要: 金沢大学医学系研究科<br />Aim: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is caused by mutations of FH genes, i.e. LDL-receptor (LDLR), PC SK9 and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) gene. We evaluated the usefulness of DNA analysis for the diagnosis of homozygous FH (homo-FH), and studied the frequency of FH in the Hokuriku district of Japan. Methods: Twenty-five homo-FH patients were recruited. LDLR mutations were identified using the Invader assay method. Mutations in PCSK9 were detected by PCR-SSCP followed by direct sequence analysis. Results: We confirmed 15 true homozygotes and 10 compound heterozygotes for LDLR mutations. Three types of double heterozygotes for LDLR and PCSK9 were found. No FH patients due to ApoB mutations were found. The incidences of homo-FH and hetero-FH in the Hokuriku district were 1/171,167 and 1/208, respectively. Conclusions: Our observations underlined the value of FH gene analysis in diagnosing homo-FH and confirmed extraordinarily high frequency of FH in the Hokuriku district of Japan. © 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. 続きを見る

概要: 金沢大学医学系研究科<br />Background: Bezafibrate and fenofibrate show different binding properties against peroxisome proliferato r-activated receptor subtypes, which could cause different clinical effects on circulating proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) levels and on various metabolic markers. Methods: An open, randomized, four-phased crossover study using 400 mg of bezafibrate or 200 mg of fenofibrate was performed. Study subjects were 14 dyslipidemia with impaired glucose tolerance or type 2 diabetes mellitus (61 ± 16 years, body mass index (BMI) 26 ± 3 kg/m2, total cholesterol (TC) 219 ± 53 mg/dL, triglyceride (TG) 183 ± 83 mg/dL, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) 46 ± 8 mg/dL, fasting plasma glucose 133 ± 31 mg/dL and HbA1c 6.2 ± 0.8%). Subjects were given either bezafibrate or fenofibrate for 8 weeks, discontinued for 4 weeks and then switched to the other fibrate for 8 weeks. Circulating PCSK9 levels and other metabolic parameters, including adiponectin, leptin and urine 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured at 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks. Results: Plasma PCSK9 concentrations were significantly increased (+39.7% for bezafibrate and +66.8% for fenofibrate, p < 0.001) in all patients except for one subject when treated with bezafibrate. Both bezafibrate and fenofibrate caused reductions in TG (-38.3%, p < 0.001 vs. -32.9%, p < 0.01) and increases in HDL-C (+18.0%, p < 0.001 vs. +11.7%, p < 0.001). Fenofibrate significantly reduced serum cholesterol levels (TC, -11.2%, p < 0.01; non-HDL-C, -17.3%, p < 0.01; apolipoprotein B, -15.1%, p < 0.01), whereas bezafibrate significantly improved glucose tolerance (insulin, -17.0%, p < 0.05) and metabolic markers (γ-GTP, -38.9%, p < 0.01; adiponectin, +15.4%, p < 0.05; urine 8-OHdG/Cre, -9.5%, p < 0.05). Conclusion: Both bezafibrate and fenofibrate increased plasma PCSK9 concentrations. The addition of a PCSK9 inhibitor to each fibrate therapy may achieve beneficial cholesterol lowering along with desirable effects of respective fibrates. © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
