Abstract

Purpose

The co-occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity are common. Mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA-c (MOTS-C) is one of the newly identified mitochondrial derivative peptides that play a role in the regulation of metabolic homeostasis. We aimed to examine the serum levels of MOTS-C to help understand the role of the disease in the pathophysiology, thereby investigating whether it can contribute to the appropriate treatment.

Materials and methods

Seventy patients with OSAS and 20 healthy controls were included. The serum MOTS-C level was measured in all patients. For each participant, demographic features, lipid profile, serum glucose levels, and insulin levels were also evaluated. Homeostatic model assessment indicator of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated for all participants.

Results

Patients with OSAS (n = 70) were grouped as mild (n = 19), moderate (n = 19), and severe (n = 32). Patients with AHI ≤ 5 were considered as the healthy control group (n = 20). Mean age was 50.3 years and 74% (67/90) of the study sample was male. As expected, as the severity of OSA increased, BMI, insulin levels and HOMA-IR increased. MOTS-C levels were significantly lower in patients with OSA compared to healthy controls (p < 0.000) and we found that MOTS-C levels decreased as OSA severity increased. There was a negative correlation between serum MOTS-C levels and AHI and BMI (r = − 0.492, p < 0.001, r = − 0.382, p < 0.001, respectively). Serum MOTS-C levels were independently associated with AHI in BMI and HOMA-IR in linear regression analysis (p < 0.010, p < 0.007, p < 0.007, respectively).

Conclusion

Serum MOTS-C level is related to OSA and BMI. MOTS-C may be a useful new marker for early metabolic disorders in patients with OSA.
