Objective. Increased coagulation activation may contribute to the high incidence of cardiovascular complications observed in obeseand type 2 diabetes (T2D) subjects. Although tissue factor (TF), the primary initiator of coagulation is increased in obesity, itsexpression in adipose tissues and its association with metabolic parameters are unclear. We sought to compare TF expression inplasma and adipose tissues of obese subjects with and without T2D, its correlation with metabolic parameters, and regulation inresponse to antidiabetic drugs. Methods Subjects were recruited from diabetes clinics and adipose tissue was obtained by needlebiopsy of lower subcutaneous abdominal depot. For the intervention study, subjects were randomized into treatment groups withrosiglitazone or metformin for 4 months. Results. Plasma TF antigen, activity, and adipose TF mRNA were greater in obese T2Dsubjects compared with obese nondiabetics. Plasma TF activity correlated with fasting insulin, glucose, and free fatty acids, (FFAs),and adipose TF mRNA correlated with plasma FFA. Plasma TF activity was reduced by metformin and increased with rosiglitazonetreatment. Conclusions. Specific diabetes-related metabolic parameters, but not obesity per se, are correlated with TF expression.
Regulation of TF activity by different classes of antidiabetic drugs may relate to protective or adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
TF-FVIIa complex triggers extrinsic coagulation leading toFXa-mediated generation of the downstream coagulation Obesity is a major risk factor for the development of type protease thrombin, fibrin deposition, and platelet activation.
2 diabetes (T2D), and clinical studies have established an Higher plasma concentrations of FVII [3], increased levels increased incidence of thrombosis and cardiovascular disease of thrombin and thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) complexes as a primary cause of mortality in diabetic patients [1, 2]. T2D [4], and increased circulating monocyte TF procoagulant is associated with accelerated and premature atherosclerosis activity [5] are observed in obese subjects. Weight loss as well as other cardiovascular and thrombotic complica- in morbidly obese patients significantly reduces thrombin tions including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and generation potential [6] and decreases levels of circulating peripheral vascular disease [1, 2]. While risk factors such TF, FVII, and prothrombin fragment F1.2, a marker of in vivo as hypertension and cholesterol are elevated in T2D, these thrombin formation [7]. Compared with nondiabetic control only account partially for the cardiovascular burden, and subjects, T2D patients display signs of hypercoagulability and emerging evidence suggests that dysregulation of pathways increased plasma TF procoagulant activity [8, 9], increased of coagulation is an additional significant mechanism that abundance of TF-positive microparticles [8, 10], and higher contributes to increased cardiovascular risk.

Journal of Obesity Whereas plasma TF activity and antigen levels have Table 1: (a) Metabolic characteristics of subjects and (b) baseline been shown to be increased in obese subjects as well as parameters of subjects prior to treatment with metformin or rosigli- in patients with T2D, whether its expression is higher in obese diabetics compared with obese nondiabetics is unclear.
This is especially important since all obese subjects are notnecessarily diabetic. In genetically or high fat diet induced obese mice that are also diabetic, TF activity is increased in the blood and its activity and gene expression increased in adipose tissues [15–17]. However, to our knowledge whether adipose TF expression is similarly induced in obese and diabetic humans has not been studied. Here, we examined Fasting glucose (mmol/L) TF expression in plasma and adipose tissues of obese subjects Fasting insulin (pmol/L) with and without diabetes, how its expression correlates with a number of metabolic parameters, and how its activity isregulated in response to the antidiabetic drugs, metformin, and rosiglitazone.

Human subject protocols were approved by the Committee on Human Investigation at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), and all subjects provided written informed Fasting glucose (mmol/L) consent. Subjects were recruited from diabetes clinics and Fasting insulin (pmol/L) classified as diabetic or nondiabetic by their response to a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test according to the American Diabetes Association criteria and classified as obese if their BMI (kg/m2) > 30 as previously described [18].

Fasting levels of plasma glucose, insulin, free fatty acids (FFAs), and HbA1c were significantly higher in the obese diabetic cohorts, while no differences were observed for plasma triglycerides between the two groups. Plasma TF activity, plasma TF antigen, and adipose TF mRNA expression were significantly increased in obese diabeticscompared with obese nondiabetics (Figures 1(a)–1(c)).
In the commercial Actichrome TF activity assay (Ameri- can Diagnostica) plasma samples are directly incubated with FVIIa, FX, and a chromogenic substrate for FXa. A limitation of this assay is that the values obtained tend to be somewhat overestimated. However, regardless of the absolute levels of βˆ—π‘ƒ < 0.05, βˆ—βˆ—π‘ƒ < 0.01, βˆ—βˆ—βˆ—π‘ƒ < 0.001 for TF (activity, antigen or adipose TF activity, we believe that, on a relative basis, the observation mRNA) versus indicated metabolic parameters.
