Increased central adiposity and decreased subcutaneous adipose tissue 11β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 are associated with deterioration in glucose tolerance – a longitudinal cohort study

Summary

Objective & Context

Increasing adiposity, aging and tissue‐specific regeneration of cortisol through the activity of 11β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 have been associated with deterioration in glucose tolerance. We undertook a longitudinal, prospective clinical study to determine if alterations in local glucocorticoid metabolism track with changes in glucose tolerance.

Design, Patients, Measurements

65 overweight/obese individuals (mean age 50.3±7.3years), underwent oral glucose tolerance testing, body composition assessment, subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsy and urinary steroid metabolite analysis annually for up to 5 years. Participants were categorised into those in whom glucose tolerance deteriorated ('deteriorators') or improved ('improvers').

Results

Deteriorating glucose tolerance was associated with increasing total and trunk fat mass and increased subcutaneous adipose tissue expression of lipogenic genes. Subcutaneous adipose tissue 11β‐HSD1 gene expression decreased in deteriorators and at study completion, was highest in the improvers. There was a significant negative correlation between change in area under the curve glucose and 11β‐HSD1 expression. Global 11β‐HSD1 activity did not change and was not different between deteriorators and improvers at baseline or follow‐up.

Conclusion

Longitudinal deterioration in metabolic phenotype is not associated with increased 11β‐HSD1 activity, but decreased subcutaneous adipose tissue gene expression. These changes may represent a compensatory mechanism to decrease local glucocorticoid exposure in the face of an adverse metabolic phenotype.
