Project description:Background and aims: The serum metabolites changes in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhosis as progression. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is closely related to lipid metabolism in cirrhotic liver. However, the relationship between fatty acids and the expression of hepatic PPARγ during cirrhosis regression remains unknown. In this study, we explored the serum metabolic characteristics and expression of PPARγ in patients with histological response to treatment with entecavir. Methods: Sixty patients with HBV-related cirrhosis were selected as the training cohort with thirty patients each in the regression (R) group and non-regression (NR) group based on their pathological changes after 48-week treatment with entecavir. Another 72 patients with HBV-related cirrhosis and treated with entecavir were collected as the validation cohort. All of the serum samples were tested using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Data were processed through principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis. Hepatic PPARγ expression was observed using immunohistochemistry. The relationship between serum fatty acids and PPARγ was calculated using Pearson's or Spearman's correlation analysis. Results: A total of 189 metabolites were identified and 13 differential metabolites were screened. Compared to the non-regression group, the serum level of fatty acids was higher in the R group. At baseline, the expression of PPARγ in hepatic stellate cells was positively correlated with adrenic acid (r 2 = 0.451, p = 0.046). The expression of PPARγ in both groups increased after treatment, and the expression of PPARγ in the R group was restored in HSCs much more than that in the NR group (p = 0.042). The adrenic acid and arachidonic acid (AA) in the R group also upgraded more than the NR group after treatment (p = 0.037 and 0.014). Conclusion: Baseline serum differential metabolites, especially fatty acids, were identified in patients with HBV-related cirrhosis patients who achieved cirrhosis regression. Upregulation of adrenic acid and arachidonic acid in serum and re-expression of PPARγ in HSCs may play a crucial role in liver fibrosis improvement.

Project description:Metabolomics offers new insights into disease mechanisms that is enhanced when adopting orthogonal instrumental platforms to expand metabolome coverage, while also reducing false discoveries by independent replication. Herein, we report the first inter-method comparison when using multisegment injection-capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (MSI-CE-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for characterizing the serum metabolome of patients with liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (n = 20) and non-HCV controls (n = 14). In this study, 60 and 30 serum metabolites were detected frequently (>75%) with good technical precision (median CV < 10%) from serum filtrate samples (n = 34) when using standardized protocols for MSI-CE-MS and NMR, respectively. Also, 20 serum metabolite concentrations were consistently measured by both methods over a 500-fold concentration range with an overall mean bias of 9.5% (n = 660). Multivariate and univariate statistical analyses independently confirmed that serum choline and histidine were consistently elevated (p < 0.05) in HCV patients with late-stage (F2-F4) as compared to early-stage (F0-F1) liver fibrosis. Overall, the ratio of serum choline to uric acid provided optimal differentiation of liver disease severity (AUC = 0.848, p = 0.00766) using a receiver operating characteristic curve, which was positively correlated with liver stiffness measurements by ultrasound imaging (r = 0.606, p = 0.0047). Moreover, serum 5-oxo-proline concentrations were higher in HCV patients as compared to non-HCV controls (F = 4.29, p = 0.0240) after adjustment for covariates (age, sex, BMI), indicative of elevated oxidative stress from glutathione depletion with the onset and progression of liver fibrosis. Both instrumental techniques enable rapid yet reliable quantification of serum metabolites in large-scale metabolomic studies with good overlap for biomarker replication. Advantages of MSI-CE-MS include greater metabolome coverage, lower operating costs, and smaller sample volume requirements, whereas NMR offers a robust platform supported by automated spectral and data processing software.

Project description:This study aimed to identify biomarkers for chronic kidney disease (CKD) by studying serum metabolomics. Serum samples were collected from 194 non-dialysis CKD patients and 317 healthy controls (HC). Using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS), untargeted metabolomics analysis was conducted. A random forest model was developed and validated in separate sets of HC and CKD patients. The serum metabolomic profiles of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibited significant differences compared to healthy controls (HC). A total of 314 metabolites were identified as significantly different, with 179 being upregulated and 135 being downregulated in CKD patients. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed several key pathways, including arginine biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, and purine metabolism. The diagnostic efficacy of the classifier was high, with an area under the curve of 1 in the training and validation sets and 0.9435 in the cross-validation set. This study provides comprehensive insights into serum metabolism in non-dialysis CKD patients, highlighting the potential involvement of abnormal biological metabolism in CKD pathogenesis. Exploring metabolites may offer new possibilities for the management of CKD.

Project description:ObjectivesAcute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), which develops in patients with underlying alcoholic liver disease (ALD), is characterized by acute deterioration of liver function and organ failures are secondary to that. The clear understanding of metabolic pathways perturbed in ALD-ACLF patients can greatly decrease the mortality and morbidity of patients through predicting outcome, guiding treatment, and monitoring response to treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the metabolic disturbances associated with ACLF using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based serum metabolomics approach and further to assess if the serum metabolic alterations are affected by the severity of hepatic impairment.Materials and methodsThe serum-metabolic profiles of 40 ALD-ACLF patients were compared to those of 49 age and sex-matched normal-control (NC) subjects making composite use of both multivariate and univariate statistical tests.ResultsCompared to NC, the sera of ACLF patients were characterized by significantly decreased serum levels of several amino acids (except methionine and tyrosine), lipid, and membrane metabolites suggesting a kind of nutritional deficiency and disturbed metabolic homeostasis in ACLF. Twelve serum metabolic entities (including BCAA, histidine, alanine, threonine, and glutamine) were found with AUROC (i.e., area under ROC curve) value >0.9 suggesting their potential in clinical diagnosis and surveillance.ConclusionOverall, the study revealed important metabolic changes underlying the pathophysiology of ACLF and those related to disease progression would add value to standard clinical scores of severity to predict outcome and may serve as surrogate endpoints for evaluating treatment response.

Project description:We carried out a prospective, longitudinal, single-center, observational cohort study of patients with confirmed acute methanol poisoning that were treated in hospitals during a mass methanol poisoning outbreak in the Czech Republic in 2012. Venous blood for proteomic analysis was obtained from 24 patients with confirmed acute methanol poisoning upon admission to the hospital (group M (“Methanol”)) with heparin administration for hemodialysis and ethanol or fomepizole administration as the antidote to block ADH. In the follow-up group of survivors of methanol poisoning (group S (“Survivors”)), venous blood samples for proteomic analysis were obtained from 46 patients during the examination, which took place 4 years after discharge from the hospital. For the control group not exposed to methanol, 24 healthy subjects were recruited (group C, “Controls”). Blood samples were spun, the serum was separated, and the samples were frozen to −80 °C until the analyses. Blood serum samples were depleted of most abundant serum proteins using Agilent MARS 14 column, samples fractionated and fractions containing proteins of interest precipitated. Samples were analyzed using LC-MS/MS Thermo Orbitrap Fusion (UHPLC-ESI-Q-OT-qIT) and identified proteins with differential expression.
