Altered Urinary Metabolomics in Hereditary Angioedema.

ABSTRACT: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare and potentially life-threatening disease with heterogeneous clinical symptoms. The metabolomic profile of HAE remains unknown. Uncovering the metabolic signatures of HAE may provide inspiration for a comprehensive understanding of HAE pathogenesis and may help explore potential new metabolic biomarkers. We performed a comprehensive metabolic analysis using high-performance liquid chromatography−tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Urine samples from 34 HAE patients and 82 healthy controls (HCs) were collected to characterize the metabolic signatures associated with HAE. The metabolomes of HAE patients carrying different mutation types were also compared. A total of 795 metabolites were accurately detected and quantified. We considered 73 metabolites
