- Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a biologically important protein that facilitates the mobilization and transport of cholesterol and other bioactive molecules in circulation. This study aims to explore the association between plasma apolipoprotein M (apoM) levels and diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This cross-sectional study included 339 patients with T2DM. Patients with diabetic retinopathy exhibited greater median plasma apoM levels than those without diabetic retinopathy (26.05 [21.09-30.37] mg/L vs. 21.47 [18.00-26.38] mg/L; < 0.001). In logistic regression models, plasma apoM levels were significantly associated with diabetic retinopathy (odds ratio [OR] per standard deviation increase in log-transformed levels, 1.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05-2.119; = 0.027) after adjusting for the confounders including age, hypertension, diabetes duration, and HbA. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.657 (95% CI: 0.594-0.721), with internal bootstrap validation yielding a stable optimism-corrected area under the curve of 0.658. Our exploratory findings suggest a significant positive association between plasma apoM levels and diabetic retinopathy in patients with T2DM. - Source: PubMed

Chung Jin OokPark Seon-YoungChung Dong JinChung Min Young - Discovery of autoantibodies in steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) has transformed our understanding of SSNS as an immune-mediated disease; however, mechanisms underlying autoantibody production are unknown. Current treatments for SSNS are non-targeted and cause serious adverse effects. We sought to identify circulating proteins with a causal relationship to SSNS, which likely reflect underlying immune derangements, using an unbiased two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization approach to inform novel drug targets for disease. - Source: PubMed

Heydari DanielLanglois SheldonNorouzi MahboobehMyette Robert LSamuel SusanZhou SiruiTakano TomokoButler-Laporte GuillaumeDownie Mallory L - Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a neurovascular retinal disease affecting extremely preterm infants (<28 weeks' gestational age), and links between early lipid metabolism and ROP are unclear. We investigated whether the lipid mediator sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and its carrier apolipoprotein M (ApoM) are associated with ROP and parenteral nutrition in preterm infants. In this multicenter cohort, extremely preterm infants were grouped by ROP outcome: no ROP (n = 72) or any ROP (n = 105). Serum was collected at birth and longitudinally to postnatal day 100. S1P was quantified by LC-MS/MS and ApoM by proximity extension assay. Associations between first month mean parenteral fluid intake, S1P, ApoM, and ROP were analyzed using logistic regression; log-normal linear regression was applied to continuous outcomes, adjusting for gestational age and LCPUFA supplementation. Results showed that serum S1P and ApoM were positively correlated (r = 0.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.50-0.56). Higher first-month parenteral fluid intake was associated with lower S1P and ApoM (per 50 ml/kg/day increase, geometric mean ratio = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.79-0.88 for S1P; 0.97, 95% CI = 0.96-0.98 for ApoM; both P < 0.001). Higher mean S1P in the first month was associated with reduced odds of any ROP (per 0.1 μmol/l increase, adjusted odds ratio = 0.84; 95% CI = 0.71-0.99; P = 0.037). Mean ApoM was associated with ROP only in unadjusted analyses. In conclusion, low S1P and ApoM levels were linked to high parenteral fluid exposure and ROP development, suggesting that infants with high parenteral nutrition requirements may be particularly vulnerable to S1P-ApoM depletion, supporting this pathway as a potential therapeutic target. - Source: PubMed

Nilsson Anders KSjöbom UlrikaPanwar Mohit BHellqvist ToveFu ZhongjieAndersson Mats XPivodic AldinaSmith Lois E HLey DavidHellström Ann - Green manure-crop rotation systems are effective management practices for maintaining soil health and enhancing crop yield. However, the influence of various green manure-millet rotation systems on soil properties, fungal community structure, and millet yield in the North China Plain remains undetermined. In this study, three types of green manures with foxtail millet rotation experiment were conducted. The physico-lchemica indexes, millet yield and soil fungal community characteristic were detected. Our findings suggest that three green manure-millet rotation systems increased millet yield compared to millet-winter fallow (Si-Le). Among them, the Triticale-millet rotation (Si-Ts) showed the highest yield increase, with a rise of 46.16% in 2021 and 85.7% in 2022. In 2021, compared with Si-Le, the organic matter (OM) in Si-Ts increased by 17.86%, and the available phosphorus (AP) rose by 113.82%. In 2022, in contrast to Si-Le, the alkali-hydrolyzed nitrogen (AHN) in Si-Ts increased by 17.68%, the available phosphorus (AP) by 37.56%, and the available potassium (AK) by 12.56%. Additionally, Si-Ts exhibited the highest diversity of soil fungi and the greatest relative abundance of beneficial genera from the dominant phylum Ascomycota and Mortierellomycota. Moreover, Green manure rotations (particularly Si-Ts) alleviate these constraints by simultaneously augmenting microbial diversity (driven by OM/AK/AHN) and crop yield (driven by AP/OM). Overall, the Triticale-millet rotation is a feasible practice for improving soil conditions, maintaining soil microbial balance, and ensuring high yields of millet. Our findings offer theoretical support for green manure-crop rotation in influencing the soil environment and the sustainable development of the millet industry in the North China Plain. - Source: PubMed

Yu GuohongHan YaLiu JingqiangZhang YingyingHao HongboLi Mingzhe - Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a subclass of apolipoproteins primarily found in high-density lipoprotein (HDL), it was mainly expressed and secreted in the liver and kidneys. ApoM functions as the carrier of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) to form apoM-S1P complex, further mediating various physiological and pathological processes in the body. Most research has focused on cardiovascular diseases, such as anti-atherosclerosis, with very few studies in the field of nephrology. In recent years, scholars have found that it plays a crucial role in kidney disease. Thereby, this review would summarize the potential roles of apoM and the apoM-S1P axis in various kidney diseases, including chronic kidney disease, diabetic nephropathy, acute kidney injury, glomerular diseases, and renal clear cell carcinoma, providing new insights for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases. - Source: PubMed
