AbstractThe non-dipping pattern is nighttime systolic blood pressure (SBP) fall of less than 10%. Several studies showed that the non-dipping pattern, increased mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet distribution width (PDW) are associated with elevated cardiovascular risk. Hypertensives with the non-dipping pattern have higher MPV than the dippers but this relationship was never investigated among people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). This study aimed to investigate the association between the central dipping pattern and platelet morphology in T1DM subjects. We measured the central and brachial blood pressure with a validated non-invasive brachial oscillometric device—Arteriograph 24—during twenty-four-hour analysis in T1DM subjects without diagnosed hypertension. The group was divided based on the central dipping pattern for the dippers and the non-dippers. From a total of 62 subjects (32 males) aged 30.1 (25.7–37) years with T1DM duration 15.0 (9.0–20) years, 36 were non-dippers. The non-dipper group had significantly higher MPV (MPV (10.8 [10.3–11.5] vs 10.4 [10.0–10.7] fl; p = 0.041) and PDW (13.2 [11.7–14.9] vs 12.3 [11.7–12.8] fl; p = 0.029) than dipper group. Multivariable logistic regression revealed that MPV (OR 3.74; 95% CI 1.48–9.45; p = 0.005) and PDW (OR 1.91; 95% CI 1.22–3.00; p = 0.005) were positively associated with central non-dipping pattern adjusting for age, sex, smoking status, daily insulin intake, and height. MPV and PDW are positively associated with the central non-dipping pattern among people with T1DM.

Objective: Vascular disease associated with endothelial dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity in patients with type-1 diabetes. Endothelin (ET)-1 plays a role in diabetes-induced vascular complications, since ET-1 type A receptor blockade reduces diabetes-induced vascular injury. However, whether ET-1 contributes to diabetes-induced endothelial dysfunction remains unproven. We hypothesized that vascular ET-1 overexpression will exaggerate diabetes-induced endothelial dysfunction. Methods: Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin treatment (STZ, 55 mg/kg/day, ip) for 5 days in 6-week-old male wild-type (WT) mice and in mice overexpressing ET-1 restricted to the endothelium (eET-1). Mice were studied 14 weeks later. Blood was collected to determine glucose. Mesenteric artery reactivity and remodeling were evaluated using pressurized myography and aortic fibronectin expression by immnunofluorescence. Results: STZ-induced diabetes was confirmed by a 3-fold increase in glycemia in WT and eET-1 ( P <0.001). Diabetes impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) reponses to acetylcholine in WT (60.9±6.4% vs 83.9±3.4%, P <0.05) and eET-1 (48.6±5.1% vs 81.5±5.2%, P <0.001). EDR impairment was exaggerated in eET-1 compared to WT ( P <0.05). Meclofenamic acid, an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase, increased EDR in eET-1 compared to WT (78.4±9.4% vs 66.7±3.2%, P <0.01), which was not observed in diabetic mice. L-NAME, an inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, completely blocked EDR in WT, eET-1 and diabetic WT, but not in diabetic eET-1 (4.1±1.6%, 6.4±5.7%, 2.2±4.6% and 26.6±4.6%, P <0.05). Apamin plus Tram34, inhibitors of endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization inhibited EDR in the four groups. Endothelium-independent relaxation to sodium nitroprusside, a NO donor, was similar in the four groups. Diabetes reduced media/lumen in WT (2.7±0.3 vs 3.6±0.3, P <0.05) and eET-1 (2.9±0.2 vs 3.8±0.3, P <0.05). Diabetes decreased aortic fibronectin expression in WT (94.0±11.0 vs. 151.9±21.8 RFU/μm 2 , P <0.05) and eET-1 (66.3±8.7 vs. 146.6±20.7 RFU/μm 2 , P <0.05). Conclusion: ET-1 contributes to alterations in several pathways mediating endothelium-dependent relaxation in type-1 diabetes, leading to exaggerated endothelial dysfunction.
