Metabolome-wide association study of estimated glomerular filtration rates in Hispanics.

ABSTRACT: Circulating metabolites are by-products of endogenous metabolism or exogenous sources and may inform disease states. Our study aimed to identify the source of variability in the association of metabolites with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Hispanics/Latinos with low chronic kidney disease prevalence by testing the association of 640 metabolites in 3,906 participants of the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos. Metabolites were quantified in fasting serum through non-targeted mass spectrometry analysis. eGFR was regressed on inverse normally transformed metabolites in models accounting for study design and covariates. To identify the source of variation on eGFR associations, we tested the interaction of metabolites with lifestyle and clinical risk factors, and r
