Overview

What is metabolomics and why do we need it?

Type II diabetes


CAD and cardiovascular disease


Man, mouse and rat
Markers of drug efficacy
Type I diabetes

Biomarker discovery
The basis of metabolomics



Metabolomics/metabonomics
 the quantitative
measurement of metabolic
responses to
pathophysiological stimuli
or genetic modification
Measure small molecule
concentrations through a
global approach
 NMR spectroscopy
 Mass Spectrometry
Use pattern recognition to
define metabolism in a
multidimensional space
 metabolic phenotype
 metabotype

Metabolism is very easily
compared across animal models
and back to humans
 With Roger Cox, Michael
Cheeseman and Tertius
Hough looked at the effects
of age and gender on the
profile of diabetic urine
 Ignored glucose!
 Identified a number of
novel perturbations
 E.g. NMN and
nucleotide metabolism

CAD and cardiovascular disease



Predict the occurrence and
severity of coronary artery
disease using blood serum.
Blood sera collected at
Papworth hospital as part of
trials concerning statins
Such systems may produce
significant financial savings
 angiography, currently the
gold standard for diagnosis.
Brindle JT et al., 2002. Nat Med. 8(12), 1439-45.

However, on closer
inspection:


‘Biomarkers’ are rather
generic
Gender and statin
treatment effect the same
‘biomarkers’ of disease


Groups must be stratified
Over fitting of the
pattern recognition
models is a problem

Discussion & Conclusion



Metabolomics can now be used as a high throughput
phenotyping tool in mice
 Metabolism is also very translatable across species
Reduced variability in phenotype can simplify biomarker
discovery
 Mass spectrometry is much more sensitive if you know
what you are looking for
Database tools are also in place to conduct this across
multiple sites
