Inflammation and Oxidative Stress of Adipose Tissue in Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Decrease of Inflammation of Adipose Tissue
Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Interventions
Device: cPAP
Registration Number
NCT01196845
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Grenoble
Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the decrease of inflammation of adipose tissue in obese and non-obese patients having a sleep apnea syndrome and treated or not by continuous positive airway pressure (cPAP).

An interim analysis will be performed when 40 patients will be included.

Detailed Description

Inflammation of adipose tissue will be evaluated by RT-PCR on mRNA of pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12, RANTES, TNFa, leptin, adiponectin, CD68).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Decrease of inflammation in adipose tissue2 months

Obese and non-obese patients having a sleep apnea syndrome will be treated by cPAP or not (placebo arm). Decrease of inflammation in adipose tissue is expected to be observed in patients treated by cPAP.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure of structural and functional changes in skeletal muscle2 months

This measure will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP"

measure of insulin sensitivity2 months

Insulin sensitivity will be measured in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP"

Measure of local hypoxemia of adipose tissue2 months

This measure will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP"

Measure of vascular adhesion factors modifications and protein synthesis signals modifications2 months

This measure will be done in musculus skeletal of obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP"

Decrease in endothelial dysfunction2 months

This measure will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP" and correlated to decrease of inflammation and oxidative stress

Decrease of systemic inflammation2 months

This measure will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP"

Decrease of oxidative stress2 months

Measures of oxidative stress will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "Placebo cPAP"

Decrease in arterial rigidity2 months

This measure will be done in obese and non-obese patients treated either by cPAP or "placebo cPAP" and correlated to decrease of inflammation and oxidative stress
