Project description:BackgroundIn individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), healthy dietary patterns are inversely associated with CKD progression. Metabolomics, an approach that measures many small molecules in biofluids, can identify biomarkers of healthy dietary patterns.ObjectivesWe aimed to identify known metabolites associated with greater adherence to 4 healthy dietary patterns in CKD patients.MethodsWe examined associations between 486 known plasma metabolites and Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015, Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI)-2010, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, and alternate Mediterranean diet (aMED) in 1056 participants (aged 21-74 y at baseline) in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study. Usual dietary intake was assessed using a semiquantitative FFQ. We conducted multivariable linear regression models to study associations between healthy dietary patterns and individual plasma metabolites, adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, health behaviors, and clinical factors. We used principal component analysis to identify groups of metabolites associated with individual food components within healthy dietary patterns.ResultsAfter Bonferroni correction, we identified 266 statistically significant diet-metabolite associations (HEI: n = 60; AHEI: n = 78; DASH: n = 77; aMED: n = 51); 78 metabolites were associated with >1 dietary pattern. Lipids with a longer acyl chain length and double bonds (unsaturated) were positively associated with all 4 dietary patterns. A metabolite pattern low in saturated diacylglycerols and triacylglycerols, and a pattern high in unsaturated triacylglycerols was positively associated with intake of healthy food components. Plasmalogens were negatively associated with the consumption of nuts and legumes and healthy fat, and positively associated with the intake of red and processed meat.ConclusionsWe identified many metabolites associated with healthy dietary patterns, indicative of food consumption. If replicated, these metabolites may be considered biomarkers of healthy dietary patterns in patients with CKD.

Project description:ObjectiveThe mechanisms linking obesity to type 2 diabetes (T2D) are not fully understood. This study aimed to identify obesity-related metabolomic signatures (MESs) and evaluated their relationships with incident T2D.MethodsIn a nested case-control study of 2076 Chinese adults, 140 plasma metabolites were measured at baseline, linear regression was applied with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to identify MESs for BMI and waist circumference (WC), and conditional logistic regression was applied to examine their associations with T2D risk.ResultsA total of 32 metabolites associated with BMI or WC were identified and validated, among which 14 showed positive associations and 3 showed inverse associations with T2D; 8 and 18 metabolites were selected to build MESs for BMI and WC, respectively. Both MESs showed strong linear associations with T2D: odds ratio (95% CI) comparing extreme quartiles was 4.26 (2.00-9.06) for BMI MES and 9.60 (4.22-21.88) for WC MES (both p-trend < 0.001). The MES-T2D associations were particularly evident among individuals with normal WC: odds ratio (95% CI) reached 6.41 (4.11-9.98) for BMI MES and 10.38 (6.36-16.94) for WC MES. Adding MESs to traditional risk factors and plasma glucose improved C statistics from 0.79 to 0.83 (p < 0.001).ConclusionsMultiple obesity-related metabolites and MESs strongly associated with T2D in Chinese adults were identified.

Project description:ObjectiveDifferentiating forms of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) from other causes of seizures helps expedite immunotherapies in AE patients and informs studies regarding their contrasting pathophysiology. We aimed to investigate whether and how Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics could differentiate AE from drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE), and stratify AE subtypes.MethodsThis study recruited 238 patients: 162 with DRE and 76 AE, including 27 with contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CASPR2), 29 with leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) and 20 with N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antibodies. Plasma samples across the groups were analyzed using NMR spectroscopy and compared with multivariate statistical techniques, such as orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA).ResultsThe OPLS-DA model successfully distinguished AE from DRE patients with a high predictive accuracy of 87.0 ± 3.1% (87.9 ± 3.4% sensitivity and 86.3 ± 3.6% specificity). Further, pairwise OPLS-DA models were able to stratify the three AE subtypes. Plasma metabolomic signatures of AE included decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL, -(CH2)n-, -CH3), phosphatidylcholine and albumin (lysyl moiety). AE subtype-specific metabolomic signatures were also observed, with increased lactate in CASPR2, increased lactate, glucose, and decreased unsaturated fatty acids (UFA, -CH2CH=) in LGI1, and increased glycoprotein A (GlycA) in NMDAR-antibody patients.InterpretationThis study presents the first non-antibody-based biomarker for differentiating DRE, AE and AE subtypes. These metabolomics signatures underscore the potential relevance of lipid metabolism and glucose regulation in these neurological disorders, offering a promising adjunct to facilitate the diagnosis and therapeutics.

Project description:Mechanisms through which most known Alzheimer's disease (AD) loci operate to increase AD risk remain unclear. Although Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is known to regulate lipid homeostasis, the effects of broader AD genetic liability on non-lipid metabolites remain unknown, and the earliest ages at which metabolic perturbations occur and how these change over time are yet to be elucidated. We examined the effects of AD genetic liability on the plasma metabolome across the life course. Using a reverse Mendelian randomization framework in two population-based cohorts [Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC, n = 5648) and UK Biobank (n ≤ 118,466)], we estimated the effects of genetic liability to AD on 229 plasma metabolites, at seven different life stages, spanning 8 to 73 years. We also compared the specific effects of APOE ε4 and APOE ε2 carriage on metabolites. In ALSPAC, AD genetic liability demonstrated the strongest positive associations with cholesterol-related traits, with similar magnitudes of association observed across all age groups including in childhood. In UK Biobank, the effect of AD liability on several lipid traits decreased with age. Fatty acid metabolites demonstrated positive associations with AD liability in both cohorts, though with smaller magnitudes than lipid traits. Sensitivity analyses indicated that observed effects are largely driven by the strongest AD instrument, APOE, with many contrasting effects observed on lipids and fatty acids for both ε4 and ε2 carriage. Our findings indicate pronounced effects of the ε4 and ε2 genetic variants on both pro- and anti-atherogenic lipid traits and sphingomyelins, which begin in childhood and either persist into later life or appear to change dynamically.

Project description:Azithromycin (AZM) reduces pulmonary inflammation and exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with emphysema. The antimicrobial effects of AZM on the lung microbiome are not known and may contribute to its beneficial effects. Methods. Twenty smokers with emphysema were randomized to receive AZM 250 mg or placebo daily for 8 weeks. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed at baseline and after treatment. Measurements included: rDNA gene quantity and sequence. Results. Compared with placebo, AZM did not alter bacterial burden but reduced α-diversity, decreasing 11 low abundance taxa, none of which are classical pulmonary pathogens. Conclusions. AZM treatment the lung microbiome Randomized trial comparing azithromycin (AZM) treatment with placebo for eight weeks. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples were obtained before and after treatment to explore the effects of AZM on microbiome, in the lower airways. 16S rRNA was quantified and sequenced (MiSeq) The amplicons from total 39 samples are barcoded and the barcode is provided in the metadata_complete.txt file.

Project description:Older adults experiencing dual decline in memory and gait have greater dementia risk than those with memory or gait decline only, but mechanisms are unknown. Dual decline may indicate specific pathophysiological pathways to dementia which can be reflected by circulating metabolites. We compared longitudinal changes in plasma metabolite biomarkers of older adults with and without dual decline in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA). Participants were grouped into 4 phenotypes based on annual rates of decline in verbal memory and gait speed: no decline in memory or gait, memory decline only, gait decline only, and dual decline. Repeated measures of plasma metabolomics were measured by biocrates p500 kit during the same time of memory and gait assessments. In BLSA, 18 metabolites differed across groups (q-value < 0.05). Metabolites differentially abundant were enriched for lysophosphatidylcholines (lysoPC C18:0,C16:0,C17:0,C18:1,C18:2), ceramides (d18:2/24:0,d16:1/24:0,d16:1/23:0), and amino acids (glycine) classes. Compared to no decline, the dual decline group showed greater declines in lysoPC C18:0, homoarginine synthesis, and the metabolite module containing mostly triglycerides, and showed a greater increase in indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity. Metabolites distinguishing dual decline and no decline groups were implicated in metabolic pathways of the aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis, histidine metabolism, and sphingolipid metabolism. Older adults with dual decline exhibit the most extensive alterations in metabolic profiling of lysoPCs, ceramides, IDO activity, and homoarginine synthesis. Alterations in these metabolites may indicate mitochondrial dysfunction, compromised immunity, and elevated burden of cardiovascular and kidney pathology.

Project description:Blood and urine acylcarnitine profiles are commonly used to diagnose long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAOD: i.e., long-chain hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase [LCHAD] and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 [CPT2] deficiency), but the global metabolic impact of long-chain FAOD has not been reported. We utilized untargeted metabolomics to characterize plasma metabolites in 12 overnight-fasted individuals with FAOD (10 LCHAD, two CPT2) and 11 healthy age-, sex-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls, with the caveat that individuals with FAOD consume a low-fat diet supplemented with medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) while matched controls consume a typical American diet. In plasma 832 metabolites were identified, and partial least squared-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) identified 114 non-acylcarnitine variables that discriminated FAOD subjects and controls. FAOD individuals had significantly higher triglycerides and lower specific phosphatidylethanolamines, ceramides, and sphingomyelins. Differences in phosphatidylcholines were also found but the directionality differed by metabolite species. Further, there were few differences in non-lipid metabolites, indicating the metabolic impact of FAOD specifically on lipid pathways. This analysis provides evidence that LCHAD/CPT2 deficiency significantly alters complex lipid pathway flux. This metabolic signature may provide new clinical tools capable of confirming or diagnosing FAOD, even in subjects with a mild phenotype, and may provide clues regarding the biochemical and metabolic impact of FAOD that is relevant to the etiology of FAOD symptoms.

Project description:ImportanceMetabolic deregulation plays an important role in gastric cancer (GC) development. To date, no studies have comprehensively explored the metabolomic profiles along the cascade of gastric lesions toward GC.ObjectiveTo draw a metabolic landscape and define metabolomic signatures associated with the progression of gastric lesions and risk of early GC.Design, setting, and participantsA 2-stage, population-based cohort study was initiated in 2017 in Linqu County, Shandong Province, China, a high-risk area for GC. Prospective follow-up was conducted during the validation stage (June 20, 2017, to May 27, 2020). A total of 400 individuals were included based on the National Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Early Detection Program in China. The discovery stage involved 200 individuals with different gastric lesions or GC (high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia or invasive GC). The validation stage prospectively enrolled 152 individuals with gastric lesions who were followed up for 118 to 1063 days and 48 individuals with GC.ExposuresMetabolomic profiles and metabolite signatures were examined based on untargeted plasma metabolomics assay.Main outcomes and measuresThe risk of GC overall and early GC (high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia), and progression of gastric lesions.ResultsOf the 400 participants, 124 of 200 (62.0%) in the discovery set were men; mean (SD) age was 56.8 (7.5) years. In the validation set, 136 of 200 (68.0%) were men; mean (SD) age was 57.5 (8.1) years. Distinct metabolomic profiles were noted for gastric lesions and GC. Six metabolites, including α-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, palmitic acid, arachidonic acid, sn-1 lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC)(18:3), and sn-2 LysoPC(20:3) were significantly inversely associated with risk of GC overall and early GC (high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia). Among these metabolites, the first 3 were significantly inversely associated with gastric lesion progression, especially for the progression of intestinal metaplasia (α-linolenic acid: OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.18-0.98; linoleic acid: OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.19-1.00; and palmitic acid: OR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.13-0.78). Compared with models including only age, sex, Helicobacter pylori infection, and gastric histopathologic findings, integrating these metabolites significantly improved the performance for predicting the progression of gastric lesions (area under the curve [AUC], 0.86; 95% CI, 0.70-1.00 vs AUC, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.50-0.88; P = .02) and risk of early GC (AUC, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.58-1.00 vs AUC, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.31-0.91; P = .03).Conclusions and relevanceThis study defined metabolite signatures that might serve as meaningful biomarkers for assessing high-risk populations and early diagnosis of GC, possibly advancing targeted GC prevention and control.
