Urinary metabolic modulation in human participants residing in Siachen: a 1H NMR metabolomics approach.

ABSTRACT: The main physiological challenge in high altitude environment is hypoxia which affects the aerobic metabolism reducing the energy supply. These changes may further progress toward extreme environment-related diseases. These are further reflected in changes in small molecular weight metabolites and metabolic pathways. In the present study, metabolic changes due to chronic environmental hypoxia were assessed using 1H NMR metabolomics by analysing the urinary metabolic profile of 70 people at sea level and 40 people at Siachen camp (3700 m) for 1 year. Multivariate statistical analysis was carried out, and PLSDA detected 15 metabolites based on VIP score > 1. ROC analysis detected cis-aconitate, Nicotinamide Mononucleotide, Tyrosine, Choline and Creatinine metabolites with a high range of sen
