- Biobanks are important infrastructures for life science research. Optimal sample handling regarding e.g. collection and processing of biological samples is highly complex, with many variables that could alter sample integrity and even more complex when considering multiple study centers or using legacy samples with limited documentation on sample management. Novel means to understand and take into account such variability would enable high-quality research on archived samples. This study investigated whether pre-analytical sample variability could be predicted and reduced by modeling alterations in the plasma metabolome, measured by NMR, as a function of pre-centrifugation conditions (1-36 h pre-centrifugation delay time at 4 A degrees C and 22 A degrees C) in 16 individuals. Pre-centrifugation temperature and delay times were predicted using random forest modeling and performance was validated on independent samples. Alterations in the metabolome were modeled at each temperature using a cluster-based approach, revealing reproducible effects of delay time on energy metabolism intermediates at both temperatures, but more pronounced at 22 A degrees C. Moreover, pre-centrifugation delay at 4 A degrees C resulted in large, specific variability at 3 h, predominantly of lipids. Pre-analytical sample handling error correction resulted in significant improvement of data quality, particularly at 22 A degrees C. This approach offers the possibility to predict pre-centrifugation delay temperature and time in biobanked samples before use in costly downstream applications. Moreover, the results suggest potential to decrease the impact of undesired, delay-induced variability. However, these findings need to be validated in multiple, large sample sets and with analytical techniques covering a wider range of the metabolome, such as LC-MS.

- Background: Metabolomics represents a powerful tool for exploring modulation of the human metabolome in response to food intake. However, the choice of multivariate statistical approach is not always evident, especially for complex experimental designs with repeated measurements per individual. Here we have investigated the serum metabolic responses to two breakfast meals: an egg and ham based breakfast and a cereal based breakfast using three different multivariate approaches based on the Projections to Latent Structures framework. Methods: In a cross over design, 24 healthy volunteers ate the egg and ham breakfast and cereal breakfast on four occasions each. Postprandial serum samples were subjected to metabolite profiling using H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and metabolites were identified using 2D nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Metabolic profiles were analyzed using Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures with Discriminant Analysis and Effect Projections and ANOVA-decomposed Projections to Latent Structures. Results: The Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures with Discriminant Analysis model correctly classified 92 and 90% of the samples from the cereal breakfast and egg and ham breakfast, respectively, but confounded dietary effects with inter-personal variability. Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures with Effect Projections removed inter-personal variability and performed perfect classification between breakfasts, however at the expense of comparing means of respective breakfasts instead of all samples. ANOVA-decomposed Projections to Latent Structures managed to remove inter-personal variability and predicted 99% of all individual samples correctly. Proline, tyrosine, and N-acetylated amino acids were found in higher concentration after consumption of the cereal breakfast while creatine, methanol, and isoleucine were found in higher concentration after the egg and ham breakfast. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that the choice of statistical method will influence the results and adequate methods need to be employed to manage sample dependency and repeated measurements in cross-over studies. In addition, H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance serum metabolomics could reproducibly characterize postprandial metabolic profiles and identify discriminatory metabolites largely reflecting dietary composition.

- Aim. Determine the metabolic profile and identify risk factors of women transitioning from gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods. 237 women diagnosed with GDM underwent an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), anthropometrics assessment, and completed lifestyle questionnaires six years after pregnancy. Blood was analysed for clinical variables (e.g., insulin, glucose, HbA1c, adiponectin, leptin, and lipid levels) and NMR metabolomics. Based on the OGTT, women were divided into three groups: normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and T2DM. Results. Six years after GDM, 19% of subjects had T2DM and 19% IGT. After BMI adjustment, the IGT group had lower HDL, higher leptin, and higher free fatty acid (FFA) levels, and the T2DM group higher triglyceride, FFA, and C-reactive protein levels than the NGT group. IGT and T2DM groups reported lower physical activity. NMR measurements revealed that levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and the valine metabolite 3-hydroxyisobyturate were higher in T2DM and IGT groups and correlated with measures of insulin resistance and lipid metabolism. Conclusion. In addition to well-known clinical risk factors, BCAAs and 3-hydroxyisobyturate are potential markers to be evaluated as predictors of metabolic risk after pregnancy complicated by GDM.

- This study investigated how post-exercise intake of placebo (PLA), protein (PRO) or carbohydrate (CHO) affected fat oxidation (FO) and metabolic parameters during recovery and subsequent exercise.In a cross-over design, 12 moderately trained women (VO2max 45 ± 6 ml·min(-1)·kg(-1)) performed three days of testing. A 23 min control (CON) incremental FO bike test (30-80% VO2max) was followed by 60 min exercise at 75% VO2max. Immediately post-exercise, subjects ingested PLA, 20 g PRO or 40 g CHO followed by a second FO bike test 2h later.Maximal fat oxidation (MFO) and the intensity at which MFO occurs (Fatmax) increased at the second FO test compared to the first following all three post-exercise drinks (MFO for CON=0.28±0.08, PLA=0.57±0.13, PRO=0.52±0.08, CHO=0.44±0.12 g fat·min(-1); Fatmax for CON=41±7, PLA=54±4, PRO=55±6, CHO=50±8 %VO2max, P<0.01 for all values compared to CON). Resting FO, MFO and Fatmax were not significantly different between PLA and PRO, but lower for CHO. PRO and CHO increased insulin levels at 1h post-exercise, though both glucose and insulin were equal with PLA at 2h. Increased post-exercise ketone levels only occurred with PLA.Protein supplementation immediately post-exercise did not affect the doubling in whole body fat oxidation seen during a subsequent exercise trial 2 hours later. Neither did it affect resting fat oxidation during the post-exercise period despite increased insulin levels and attenuated ketosis. Carbohydrate intake dampened the increase in fat oxidation during the second test, though a significant increase was still observed compared to the first test.

- Background: Objective and reliable methods to measure dietary exposure and prove associations and causation between diet and health are desirable. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate if 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) analysis of serum samples may be used as an objective method to discriminate vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore diets. Specifically, the aim was to identify a metabolite pattern that separated meat-eaters from non-meat-eaters and vegans from nonvegans. Methods: Healthy volunteers (45 men and 75 women) complying with habitual vegan (n = 43), vegetarian (n = 24 + vegetarians adding fish n = 13), or omnivore (n = 40) diets were enrolled in the study. Data were collected on clinical phenotype, body composition, lifestyle including a food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ), and a 4-d weighed food diary. Serum samples were analyzed by routine clinical test and for metabolites by 1H NMR spectroscopy. NMR data were nonnormalized, UV-scaled, and analyzed with multivariate data analysis [principal component analysis, orthogonal projections to latent structures (OPLS) and OPLS with discriminant analysis]. In the multivariate analysis volunteers were assigned as meat-eaters (omnivores), non-meat-eaters (vegans and vegetarians), vegans, or nonvegans (lacto-ovo-vegetarians, vegetarians adding fish, and omnivores). Metabolites were identified by line-fitting of 1D 1H NMR spectra and the use of statistical total correlation spectroscopy. Results: Although many metabolites differ in concentration between men and women as well as by age, body mass index, and body composition, it was possible to correctly classify 97.5% of the meat-eaters compared with non-meat-eaters and 92.5% of the vegans compared with nonvegans. The branched-chain amino acids, creatine, lysine, 2-aminobutyrate, glutamine, glycine, trimethylamine, and 1 unidentified metabolite were among the most important metabolites in the discriminating patterns in relation to intake of both meat and other animal products. Conclusions: 1H NMR serum metabolomics appears to be a possible objective tool to identify and predict habitual intake of meat and other animal products in healthy subjects. These results should be confirmed in larger cohort studies or intervention trials. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02039609.

- Known and consistent bioactivity between samples of insulin is essential to correctly estimate the dose. Insulin concentration is not the same thing as bioactivity, however, and methods to correctly determine both are required. Here we show that one dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (1D NMR), in contrast to, for example, reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography, can be used to determine both insulin concentration as well as confirm the structural integrity required for activity. In response to the report by Carter and Heinemann, we decided to investigate insulin intended for public use. Insulin from several manufacturers was investigated. Correct insulin concentrations were found in all tested samples although the general sample variability, which possibly could influence the bioactivity, varied depending on insulin type and manufacturer.

- Coupling of evolution periods in NMR experiments is a very promising approach that has recently attracted much attention for its substantial savings in measurement time. Another novel concept, which has already proved useful in many types of NMR applications is multi-way decomposition. The PRODECOMP tool described here addresses the combination of these two modern tools in protein NMR. The following properties of this approach are described and illustrated. Highly similar information to what would be found in a corresponding full-dimensional spectrum is extracted from a set of projected spectra. All experimental spectra are used simultaneously, avoiding sensitivity loss associated with individual examination of the spectra. Aliasing caused by the linear combinations of individual shifts in the projected spectra is automatically resolved, allowing for better resolution due to smaller spectral widths. Reconstructions of various high-dimensional spectra, including the corresponding full-dimensional spectrum become straightforward. Spectral overlap is efficiently resolved. The capabilities of PRODECOMP are illustrated for a 14 kD protein, for which 12 projections of a 5-dimensional spectrum with the nuclei N, HN, CO, Calpha and Halpha are analysed.

- The attenuation of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) by metabolic surgery is enhanced by pharmacotherapy promoting renal fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Using the Zucker Diabetic Fatty and Zucker Diabetic Sprague Dawley rat models of DKD, we conducted studies to determine if these effects could be replicated with a non-invasive bariatric mimetic intervention. Metabolic control and renal injury were compared in rats undergoing a dietary restriction plus medical therapy protocol (DMT; fenofibrate, liraglutide, metformin, ramipril, and rosuvastatin) and ad libitum-fed controls. The global renal cortical transcriptome and urinary 1H-NMR metabolomic profiles were also compared. Kidney cell type-specific and medication-specific transcriptomic responses were explored through in silico deconvolution. Transcriptomic and metabolomic correlates of improvements in kidney structure were defined using a molecular morphometric approach. The DMT protocol led to ∼20% weight loss, normalized metabolic parameters and was associated with reductions in indices of glomerular and proximal tubular injury. The transcriptomic response to DMT was dominated by changes in fenofibrate- and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα)-governed peroxisomal and mitochondrial FAO transcripts localizing to the proximal tubule. DMT induced urinary excretion of PPARα-regulated metabolites involved in nicotinamide metabolism and reversed DKD-associated changes in the urinary excretion of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates. FAO transcripts and urinary nicotinamide and TCA cycle metabolites were moderately to strongly correlated with improvements in glomerular and proximal tubular injury. Weight loss plus pharmacological PPARα agonism is a promising means of attenuating DKD.

- Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) improves biochemical and histological parameters of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Targeted adjunct medical therapy may enhance renoprotection following RYGB. Methods: The effects of RYGB and RYGB plus fenofibrate, metformin, ramipril, and rosuvastatin (RYGB-FMRR) on metabolic control and histological and ultrastructural indices of glomerular and proximal tubular injury were compared in the Zucker Diabetic Sprague Dawley (ZDSD) rat model of DKD. Renal cortical transcriptomic (RNA-sequencing) and urinary metabolomic (1H-NMR spectroscopy) responses were profiled and integrated. Transcripts were assigned to kidney cell types through in silico deconvolution in kidney single-nucleus RNA-sequencing and microdissected tubular epithelial cell proteomics datasets. Medication-specific transcriptomic responses following RYGB-FMRR were explored using a network pharmacology approach. Omic correlates of improvements in structural and ultrastructural indices of renal injury were defined using a molecular morphometric approach. Results: RYGB-FMRR was superior to RYGB alone with respect to metabolic control, albuminuria, and histological and ultrastructural indices of glomerular injury. RYGB-FMRR reversed DKD-associated changes in mitochondrial morphology in the proximal tubule to a greater extent than RYGB. Attenuation of transcriptomic pathway level activation of pro-fibrotic responses was greater after RYGB-FMRR than RYGB. Fenofibrate was found to be the principal medication effector of gene expression changes following RYGB-FMRR, which led to the transcriptional induction of PPARα-regulated genes that are predominantly expressed in the proximal tubule and which regulate peroxisomal and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO). After omics integration, expression of these FAO transcripts positively correlated with urinary levels of PPARα-regulated nicotinamide metabolites and negatively correlated with urinary tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates. Changes in FAO transcripts and nicotinamide and TCA cycle metabolites following RYGB-FMRR correlated strongly with improvements in glomerular and proximal tubular injury. Conclusions: Integrative multi-omic analyses point to PPARα-stimulated FAO in the proximal tubule as a dominant effector of treatment response to combined surgical and medical therapy in experimental DKD. Synergism between RYGB and pharmacological stimulation of FAO represents a promising combinatorial approach to the treatment of DKD in the setting of obesity.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the Microvascular Outcomes after Metabolic Surgery randomised clinical trial (MOMS RCT, NCT01821508), combined metabolic surgery (gastric bypass) plus medical therapy (CSM) was superior to medical therapy alone (MTA) as a means of achieving albuminuria remission at 2‐year follow‐up in patients with obesity and early diabetic kidney disease (DKD). In the present study, we assessed the urinary1H‐NMR metabolome in a subgroup of patients from both arms of the MOMS RCT at baseline and 6‐month follow‐up. Whilst CSM and MTA both reduced the urinary excretion of sugars, CSM generated a distinctive urinary metabolomic profile characterised by increases in host–microbial co‐metabolites (N‐phenylacetylglycine, trimethylamine N‐oxide, and 4‐ aminobutyrate (GABA)) and amino acids (arginine and glutamine). Furthermore, reductions in aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine and tyrosine), as well as branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs) and related catabolites (valine, leucine, 3‐hydroxyisobutyrate, 3‐hydroxyisovalerate, and 3‐methyl‐ 2‐oxovalerate), were observed following CSM but not MTA. Improvements in BMI did not correlate with improvements in metabolic and renal indices following CSM. Conversely, urinary metabolites changed by CSM at 6 months were moderately to strongly correlated with improvements in blood pressure, glycaemia, triglycerides, and albuminuria up to 24 months following treatment initiation, highlighting the potential involvement of these shifts in the urinary metabolomic profile in the metabolic and renoprotective effects of CSM. © 2022 by the authors.

Phenomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics for identifying concentration-dependent chemical interactions and understanding the mechanistic basis of the mixture toxicity
- 2019
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The prevalence of mixtures of synthetic and natural chemicals in the environment is a growing concern for public health and environmental effects. Currently, most chemical legislations are based on the risk assessments carried out on individual substances and theoretical estimates of combination effect. However, exposure to multi-component mixtures may stimulate unpredicted overall toxic responses due to interactions, where interactions were scored as deviations from the independent action model. In our project, we investigated the frequency and magnitude of interactions in mixtures of five compounds - NaCl, HgCl2, paraquat, rapamycin, clotrimazole - with relatively known specific mode of action. Growth effects by all-combination pair-wise mixtures spanning a wide concentration range were investigated by employing high-resolution yeast phenomics. The baker’s/brewer’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the marine yeast Debaryomyces hansenii are used in this study to identify evolutionary conserved mixture effects, with the aim to identify generic responses of relevance to a vast array of organisms. Our results clearly show that both synergistic and antagonistic relationships exist among the tested chemicals and some of these relationships are concentration-dependent. Evolutionary conserved interactions on the level of rate of growth were found for salt and rapamycin (synergy) as well as for salt and paraquat (antagonism). The mechanistic basis of the chemical interactions identified in our study was investigated by transcriptomics and metabolomics. As one example, we observed that several genes with symporter activity and with cation transmembrane transporter activity is downregulated in salt plus paraquat mixtures, while the expression of genes that are related to cofactor-dependent metabolic pathways is stimulated. We believe that the repression of symporter and ion transmembrane transport activity reduces paraquat entry to the yeast cells and thereby reduces its toxic response when combined with salt. On the other hand, upregulation of several of the genes (such as PGI1, PFK1, FBA1, and CDC19) related to cofactor-dependent metabolic pathways boost yeast fermentative activity. Since paraquat induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via respiration, a shift from aerobic respiration to anaerobic fermentation can reduce formation of ROS, thus reduces oxidative stress by paraquat.

- An increasing number of extremely premature infants survive the neonatal period and beyond. Little is known about the maturation of the preterm infant's metabolome and its relation to the development of morbidities. Using 1H-NMR, we investigated the serum metabolic profile of 87 infants born at a gestational age (GA) <28 weeks [mean GA (SD) 25.4 (1.4) weeks] in samples longitudinally collected from birth to term equivalent age. The infant metabolome was analyzed in relation to GA, postnatal age, nutrition, and preterm morbidities. At postnatal day 1, low GA correlated with high levels of 3-hydroxyisobutyrate, acetate, acetoacetate, acetone, formate, glucose, and valine. Nearly all quantified metabolites displayed postnatal concentration changes. For example, the two phospholipid-related metabolites myo-inositol and ethanolamine displayed a similar decline from birth over the first weeks of life, irrespectively of GA. The proportion of enteral/parenteral energy intake in the first 28 days significantly correlated with mean levels of 52% of the analyzed metabolites. Low enteral energy intake was associated with high serum levels of 3-hydroxyisobutyrate, creatinine, glucose, glycerol, histidine, lactate, leucine, lysine, methionine, ornithine, phenylalanine, proline, threonine, and uridine. There were also significant correlations between high enteral intake and high serum levels of isoleucine and tyrosine. Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) outcomes were not significantly associated with metabolite levels in the neonatal period after correcting for multiple testing. In conclusion, the serum metabolome of extremely premature infants changes substantially in the neonatal period, largely driven by the gradual transfer from total parenteral nutrition to full enteral feeding. Further studies are needed to disentangle the intricate relationships between the metabolome, nutritional management, GA, and the development of preterm morbidities.

- Purpose Choline is an essential nutrient for fetal and infant growth and development. Parenteral nutrition used in neonatal care lack free choline but contain small amounts of lipid-bound choline in the form of phosphatidylcholine (PC). Here, we examined the longitudinal development of serum free choline and metabolically related compounds betaine and methionine in extremely preterm infants and how the concentrations were affected by the proportion of parenteral fluids the infants received during the first 28 postnatal days (PNDs). Methods This prospective study included 87 infants born at gestational age (GA) < 28 weeks. Infant serum samples were collected PND 1, 7, 14, and 28, and at postmenstrual age (PMA) 32, 36, and 40 weeks. The serum concentrations of free choline, betaine, and methionine were determined by(1)H NMR spectroscopy. Results The median (25th-75th percentile) serum concentrations of free choline, betaine, and methionine were 33.7 (26.2-41.2), 71.2 (53.2-100.8), and 25.6 (16.4-35.3) mu M, respectively, at PND 1. The choline concentration decreased rapidly between PND one and PND seven [18.4 (14.1-26.4) mu M], and then increased over the next 90 days, though never reaching PND one levels. There was a negative correlation between a high intake of parenteral fluids and serum-free choline. Conclusion Circulating free choline in extremely preterm infants is negatively affected by the proportion of parenteral fluids administered.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- IMPORTANCE: The study of bacterial interactions and salivary-mediated regulation of early dental biofilm activity is of interest for understanding oral microbial adaptation to environmental cues and biofilm maturation. Findings in oral commensals can prove useful from the perspectives of both oral and systemic health of the host, as well as the understanding of general microbial biofilm physiology. The knowledge may provide a basis for the development of prognostic biomarkers, or development of new treatment strategies, related to oral health and disease and possibly also to other biofilm-induced conditions. The study is also an important step toward developing the methodology for similar studies in other species and/or growth conditions.

- Metabolomics provide an unbiased tool for exploring the modulation of the human metabolome in response to food intake. This study applied metabolomics to capture the postprandial metabolic response to breakfast meals corresponding to vegan (VE), lacto ovo-vegetarian (LOV), and omnivore (OM) diets. In a cross over design 32 healthy volunteers (16 men and 16 females) consumed breakfast meals in a randomized order during three consecutive days. Fasting and 3 h postprandial serum samples were collected and then subjected to metabolite profiling using1 H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Changes in concentration of identified and discriminating metabolites, between fasting and postprandial state, were compared across meals. Betaine, choline, and creatine displayed higher concentration in the OM breakfast, while 3-hydroxyisobutyrate, carnitine, proline, and tyrosine showed an increase for the LOV and unidentified free fatty acids displayed a higher concentration after the VE breakfast. Using1 H NMR metabolomics it was possible to detect and distinguish the metabolic response of three different breakfast meals corresponding to vegan, lacto-ovo vegetarian, and omnivore diets in serum. © 2018 by the authors.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The metabolome, which is the final down-stream global product of metabolic processes in organisms, is not sufficiently described in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. The aim of this study was, therefore, to study the serum metabolomic profile using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy, and its relationship to clinical characteristics and patient outcome. Serum samples, which were taken at diagnosis, from 201 MM patients who underwent high-dose melphalan followed by autologous stem cell transplantation as the first-line therapy, were analyzed. We found that the metabolomic profile differed between patients with different MM International Staging System (ISS) stages. The profile revealed increased levels of cholesterol, phospholipids, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, apolipoproteins A1 and A2, valine, and leucine in ISS I patients compared with ISS III patients. The metabolomic profile also differed between patients with IgA and IgG paraproteins, predominantly because of higher levels of high- and low-density lipoprotein subfractions in IgA patients. The exact pathway of metabolism leading to accumulation of these metabolites is still elusive, but this study indicates an area of interest for further investigation in the search for new therapy targets and prognostic markers for this disease.
