This study found that branched chain amino acid (BCAA) plasma levels are associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission in patients consuming the Mediterranean diet, but not in those consuming a low-fat diet. Additionally, combining BCAA plasma levels into a score revealed that a high score is associated with a lower risk of T2DM remission in patients following the Mediterranean diet.
Scope Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) plasma levels may be differentially associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission through the consumption of the Mediterranean diet (Med) and a low-fat (LF) diet. Methods One hundred eighty-three newly diagnosed T2DM patients within the CORDIOPREV study are randomized to consume the Med or a LF diet. BCAA plasma levels (isoleucine, leucine, and valine) are measured at fasting and after 120 min of an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at the baseline of the study and after 5 years of the dietary intervention. Results Isoleucine, leucine, and valine plasma levels after 120 min of an OGTT in the Med diet (N = 80) are associated by COX analysis with T2DM remission: HR per SD (95% CI): 0.53 (0.37-0.77), 0.75 (0.52-1.08), and 0.61 (0.45-0.82), respectively; no association is found in patients who consumed a LF diet (N = 103). BCAA plasma levels combined in a score show a HR of 3.33 (1.55-7.19) of T2DM remission for patients with a high score values in the Med diet, while in those with a LF diet, no association is found. Conclusion The study suggests that BCAA measurements potentially be used as a tool to select the most suitable diet to induce T2DM remission by nutritional strategies.
