Metabolomics profiles were consistently associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk, but evidence on long-term metabolite changes and T2D incidence is lacking. We examined the associations of 10-year plasma metabolite changes with subsequent T2D risk.
We conducted a nested T2D case-control study (n=244 cases, n=244 matched controls) within the Nurses' Health Study. Repeated metabolomics profiling (170 targeted metabolites) was conducted in participant blood specimens from 1989/1990 and 2000/2001, and T2D occurred between 2002 and 2008. We related 10-year metabolite changes (Δ-values) to subsequent T2D risk using conditional logistic models, adjusting for baseline metabolite levels and baseline levels and concurrent changes of BMI, diet quality, physical activity, and smoking status.
The 10-year changes of thirty-one metabolites were associated with subsequent T2D risk (false discovery rate-adjusted p-values [FDR]<0.05). The top three high T2D risk-associated 10-year changes were (odds ratio [OR] per standard deviation [SD], 95%CI): Δisoleucine (2.72, 1.97-3.79), Δleucine (2.53, 1.86-3.47), and Δvaline (1.93, 1.52-2.44); other high-risk-associated metabolite changes included alanine, tri-/diacylglycerol-fragments, short-chain acylcarnitines, phosphatidylethanolamines, some vitamins, and bile acids (ORs per SD between 1.31and 1.82). The top three low T2D risk-associated 10-year metabolite changes were (OR per SD, 95% CI): ΔN-acetylaspartic acid (0.54, 0.42-0.70), ΔC20:0 lysophosphatidylethanolamine (0.68, 0.56-0.82), and ΔC16:1 sphingomyelin (0.68, 0.56-0.83); 10-year changes of other sphingomyelins, plasmalogens, glutamine, and glycine were also associated with lower subsequent T2D risk (ORs per SD between 0.66 and 0.78).
Repeated metabolomics profiles reflecting the long-term deterioration of amino acid and lipid metabolism are associated with subsequent risk of T2D.
代谢组学图谱与 2 型糖尿病(T2D)风险始终相关,但缺乏关于长期代谢物变化与 T2D 发病之间关系的证据。我们研究了 10 年血浆代谢物变化与随后 T2D 风险之间的关联。
我们在护士健康研究(Nurses' Health Study)中开展了一项 T2D 病例对照研究的嵌套研究(244 例病例,244 例匹配对照)。在 1989/1990 年和 2000/2001 年采集参与者的血液样本进行了多次代谢组学分析(170 种靶向代谢物),T2D 发生在 2002 年至 2008 年期间。我们使用条件逻辑回归模型将 10 年的代谢物变化(Δ 值)与随后的 T2D 风险相关联,该模型调整了基线代谢物水平、BMI、饮食质量、身体活动和吸烟状态的基线水平和同期变化。
31 种代谢物的 10 年变化与随后的 T2D 风险相关(错误发现率校正的 p 值[FDR] <0.05)。与高 T2D 风险相关的前三个 10 年变化是(每个标准差的优势比[OR],95%CI):异亮氨酸(2.72,1.97-3.79)、亮氨酸(2.53,1.86-3.47)和缬氨酸(1.93,1.52-2.44);其他高风险相关的代谢物变化包括丙氨酸、三酰基/二酰基甘油片段、短链酰基辅酶 A、磷脂酰乙醇胺、一些维生素和胆汁酸(SD 之间的 OR 为 1.31-1.82)。与低 T2D 风险相关的前三个 10 年代谢物变化是(SD 的 OR,95%CI):N-乙酰天冬氨酸(0.54,0.42-0.70)、C20:0 溶血磷脂酰乙醇胺(0.68,0.56-0.82)和 C16:1 神经鞘磷脂(0.68,0.56-0.83);其他神经鞘磷脂、血浆类脂、谷氨酰胺和甘氨酸的 10 年变化也与随后较低的 T2D 风险相关(SD 之间的 OR 为 0.66-0.78)。
