Lipidomics as a tool of predicting progression from non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease to type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: The lipid metabolism relationship between non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease (NAFPD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is poorly defined. We aim to identify novel T2DM-related lipid biomarkers in addition to previous studies and provide the evidence for elucidating the relationship between NAFPD and T2DM in a lipid perspective. In this study, multi-dimensional mass spectrometry-based shotgun lipidomics (MDMS-SL) was used to investigate the potential discriminating lipid profile of the fasting plasma of 105 Chinese individuals (39 NAFPD patients, 38 T2DM patients and 30 healthy controls). Then multivariate statistical analysis combined with pathway analysis was performed to identify the lipid biomarker and explore the potential relationship of these two important diseases. The results d
