Identification of serum biomarkers for chronic kidney disease using serum metabolomics.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to identify biomarkers for chronic kidney disease (CKD) by studying serum metabolomics. Serum samples were collected from 194 non-dialysis CKD patients and 317 healthy controls (HC). Using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS), untargeted metabolomics analysis was conducted. A random forest model was developed and validated in separate sets of HC and CKD patients. The serum metabolomic profiles of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibited significant differences compared to healthy controls (HC). A total of 314 metabolites were identified as significantly different, with 179 being upregulated and 135 being downregulated in CKD patients. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed several key pathways, including arginine biosynthes
