  • Description: Abstract Introduction Cyclic hypoxia-reoxygenation in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) induces oxidative stress and systemic inflammation. Hypothesis: Repeated intermittent hypoxia (IH) in OSA is associated with cytokine diurnal variation. Methods A cross-sectional, single-night study of 48 adults undergoing diagnostic polysomnography (PSG; OSA n=25; non-OSA n= 23) with strict inflammatory confounder criteria. PSG-derived variables: apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), mean O2, total sleep time (TST) O2 saturation 80%-90% (OSD80%) and ≤ 88% (TS88%), O2 nadir, arousal index (AI). Cytokine plasma concentrations, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), measured by a Luminex Human MMP 5-Plex Panel at pre-sleep bout (8pm; Time 1) and post-sleep bout (6am; Time 2). Cytokine diurnal variation, D=Time 1 - Time 2. Wilcoxon rank-sum test for group differences; scatterplots and Spearman partial rank correlation for cytokine diurnal variation (D) and PSG-derived oxygenation indices association, adjusted for age, body mass index, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Results Middle-aged (47.8 ± 15.8 yrs), obese (33.5 ± 8.5 kg/m2), men (41.7%) with OSA (AHI, mean 14.3 events/hr) and non-OSA (AHI, mean 1.8 events/hr). Significant group differences identified for OSA-specific PSG indices but not for sleep stage distribution or sleep continuity indices. Significant TNF-α D in both OSA and non-OSA group (p=0.0005; p=0.0023, respectively) but no differences between groups (p=0.66); trend for IL-8 D in only OSA group was identified (p=0.198) but no between-group differences (p=0.156). In OSA group, IL-8 D was positively correlated to OSD80% and TS88% (r=0.448, p=0.0405; r=0.50, p=0.0198, respectively); IL-6 D was positively correlated to O2 nadir and AI (r=0.482, p=0.0257; r=0.497, p=0.0205, respectively). No significant relationships between any cytokine D and PSG-defined oxygenation indices in non-OSA group. Conclusion IH in OSA is associated with IL-6 and IL-8 diurnal variation; IL-8 may be a specific biomarker of IH in OSA and may be causal mechanism of atherosclerosis risk in OSA.
