Metabolomic profiling identifies novel metabolites associated with cardiac dysfunction.

ABSTRACT: Metabolic comorbidities, such as obesity and diabetes, are associated with subclinical alterations in both cardiac structure/function and natriuretic peptides prior to the onset of heart failure (HF). Despite this, the exact metabolic pathways of cardiac dysfunction which precede HF are not well-defined. Among older individuals without HF in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), we evaluated the associations of 47 circulating metabolites measured by ¹H-NMR with echocardiographic measures of cardiac structure and function. We then evaluated associations of significant metabolites with circulating N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). In a separate cohort, we evaluated differences between top metabolites in patients with HF with preserved ejection frac
