Abstract
Background and aims
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) frequently coexist in postmenopausal women. The study aimed to explore metabolic variations linked to these circumstances and their simultaneous presence through proton nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics (1H NMR).
Materials and methods
Serum samples from 80 postmenopausal women, including 20 PMO individuals, 20 T2DM, 20 T2DM + PMO, and 20 healthy postmenopausal women, were analyzed using 1H NMR spectroscopy.
Results
Our study revealed significant metabolic profile differences among the four groups. Notably, the T2DM + PMO group showed elevated levels of alanine, pyruvate, glutamate, lactate, and aspartate, indicating their involvement in lipid metabolism, energy, and amino acids. Importantly, our multivariate statistical analysis identified a metabolite set that accurately distinguished the groups, suggesting its potential as an early diagnostic marker.
Conclusion
The 1H NMR metabolomics approach uncovered metabolic biomarkers intricately linked to postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and their concurrent presence. Among these biomarkers, alanine emerged as a pivotal player, showing its significant role in the metabolic landscape associated with PMO and T2DM. These findings shed light on the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these conditions and underscore alanine's potential as a diagnostic biomarker.
