Low leptin concentration may identify heart failure patients with central sleep apnea.
Low leptin concentration has been shown to be associated with central sleep apnea in heart failure patients. We hypothesized that low leptin concentration predicts central sleep apnea. Consecutive ambulatory New York Heart Association (NYHA) classes I-IV heart failure patients were studied prospectively, including measurement of serum leptin, echocardiography and polysomnography. Sleep apnea was defined by type (central/mixed/obstructive) and by apnea-hypopnea index ≥5 by polysomnography. Subjects were divided into four groups by polysomnography: (1) central sleep apnea, (2) mixed apnea, (3) no apnea and (4) obstructive sleep apnea. Fifty-six subjects were included. Eighteen subjects were diagnosed with central sleep apnea, 15 with mixed apnea, 12 with obstructive apnea and 11 with no sleep apnea. Leptin concentration was significantly lower in central sleep apnea compared to obstructive apnea (8 ± 10.7 ng mL Topics: Aged; Biomarkers; Female; Heart Failure; Humans; Leptin; Male; Middle Aged; Polysomnography; Prospective Studies; Sleep Apnea, Central | 2018 |

Leptin deficiency promotes central sleep apnea in patients with heart failure.
Leptin-deficient animals hyperventilate. Leptin expression by adipocytes is attenuated by atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Increased circulating natriuretic peptides (NPs) are associated with an increased risk of central sleep apnea (CSA). This study tested whether serum leptin concentration is inversely correlated to NP concentration and decreased in patients with heart failure (HF) and CSA.. Subjects with HF (N = 29) were studied by measuring leptin, NPs, CO2 chemosensitivity (Δminute ventilation [V.e]/Δpartial pressure of end-tidal CO2 [Petco2]), and ventilatory efficiency (V.e/CO2 output [V.co2]) and were classified as CSA or no sleep-disordered breathing by polysomnography. CSA was defined as a central apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15. The Student t test, Mann-Whitney U test, and logistic regression were used for analysis, and data were summarized as mean ± SD; P < .05 was considered significant.. Subjects with CSA had higher ANP and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentrations (P < .05), ΔV.e/ΔPetco2 (2.39 ± 1.03 L/min/mm Hg vs 1.54 ± 0.35 L/min/mm Hg, P = .01), and V.e/V.co2 (43 ± 9 vs 34 ± 7, P < .01) and lower leptin concentrations (8 ± 10.7 ng/mL vs 17.1 ± 8.8 ng/mL, P < .01). Logistic regression analysis (adjusted for age, sex, and BMI) demonstrated leptin (OR = 0.07; 95% CI, 0.01-0.71; P = .04) and BNP (OR = 4.45; 95% CI, 1.1-17.9; P = .05) to be independently associated with CSA.. In patients with HF and CSA, leptin concentration is low and is inversely related to NP concentration. Counterregulatory interactions of leptin and NP may be important in ventilatory control in HF.
