Metabolomics Panel Associated with Cystic Fibrosis-Related Diabetes toward Biomarker Discovery.

ABSTRACT: The most prevalent comorbidity among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). CFRD has been linked to one of the worse clinical outcomes and a higher mortality. Improved clinical results have been related to earlier diagnosis and treatment of CFRD. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the metabolome of human serum of patients with CFRD. This might aid in identifying novel biomarkers linked with the pathophysiology of CFRD and its diagnosis. The liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) metabolomics approach was utilized for serum samples from patients with CF (n = 36) and healthy controls (n = 36). Nine patients in the CF group had CFRD, and 27 were non-CFRD patients (nCFRD). A total of 2328 metabolites wer
