Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Hypertension is a complex trait with an ill-defined genetic predisposition, in which adrenergic mechanisms seem to be involved even at the early stages. Chromogranin A is a pro-hormone stored and released with catecholamines by exocytosis; its fragment catestatin, formed in vivo, inhibits further catecholamine release as an antagonist at the physiologic trigger for secretion, the neuronal nicotinic cholinergic receptor. METHODS:We measured catestatin by radioimmunoassay in n = 277 subjects stratified by blood pressure (n = 61 hypertensive, n = 216 normotensive), and if normotensive by genetic risk of developing hypertension: family history positive (n = 176) versus negative (n = 40). Maximum likelihood analysis tested for bimodality. Involvement of catestatin in pathophysiology was probed by measurements of catecholamines and leptin, and the hemodynamic responses to environmental (cold) stress. RESULTS:The normotensive offspring of patients with hypertension already had diminished catestatin (P = 0.024), and family history was a better predictor of catestatin than age, ethnicity or gender (P = 0.014). Greater catestatin variance among family history-positive individuals (P = 0.021) suggested heterogeneity in this group, and a bimodal distribution (P < 0.001) identified 4.3% of individuals in a lower mode of catestatin values, all with positive family histories (P = 0.05). Catestatin correlated inversely with body mass index (r = -0.215, r(2) = 0.046, n = 276, P < 0.001) and plasma leptin (r = -0.203, r(2) = 0.041, n = 212, P = 0.003), while body mass index and leptin correlated directly (r = 0.59, r(2) = 0.350, n = 212, P < 0.001). Family history-positive individuals had greater epinephrine excretion (P = 0.037) in addition to diminished catestatin, suggesting an inhibitory effect of catestatin on chromaffin cells in vivo. Low plasma catestatin predicted enhanced pressor response to a sympathoadrenal stressor (cold stress; r = -0.184, r(2) = 0.034, n = 211, P = 0.007), suggesting an adrenergic mechanism whereby diminished catestatin might predispose to later development of hypertension. In white subjects, diminished catestatin also predicted greater systemic vascular resistance responses to cold stress (r = -0.307, r(2) = 0.094, n = 75, P = 0.007), a relationship not found in Blacks (r = 0.122, r(2) = 0.015, n = 94, P = 0.243). CONCLUSIONS:We conclude that catestatin is diminished early in the course of development of hypertension, even in the normotensive offspring of patients with the disease. Low catestatin predicts augmented adrenergic pressor responses, suggesting a mechanism whereby diminished catestatin might increase the risk for later development of hypertension.
