Metabolomics Profiling of Cystic Renal Disease towards Biomarker Discovery.

ABSTRACT: Cystic renal disease (CRD) comprises a heterogeneous group of genetic and acquired disorders. The cystic lesions are detected through imaging, either incidentally or after symptoms develop, due to an underlying disease process. In this study, we aim to study the metabolomic profiles of CRD patients for potential disease-specific biomarkers using unlabeled and labeled metabolomics using low and high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS), respectively. Dried-blood spot (DBS) and serum samples, collected from CRD patients and healthy controls, were analyzed using the unlabeled and labeled method. The metabolomics profiles for both sets of samples and groups were collected, and their data were processed using the lab's standard protocol. The univariate analysis showed (FDR p < 0.05 and fold
