| Project Title: | Higher Plasma Kynurenine to Tryptophan Correlates with Increased Incidence of Mild Cognitive Impairment in Treated Metabolic Syndrome Patients |
| Project Type: | MS quantitative analysis |
| Project Summary: | An increase in cognitive impairment has been observed in metabolic syndrome (MetS) patients. Although alterations in metabolomic profiles have been identified as potential plasma/serum biomarkers of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and MetS, findings remain inconsistent— likely due to the heterogeneity among MetS patients and the lack of subsequent validation using targeted analysis after initial untargeted analysis. In this study, we validated mass spectrometry-based quantitation methods and quantified amino acids, fatty acids, and tryptophan metabolites in the kynurenine pathway in plasma of ninety-five treated MetS patients with and without MCI assessed by Montreal cognitive assessment. We found that MCI was positively associated with kynurenine to tryptophan ratio (KTR) after the adjustment for age, gender, and BMI, as well as were negatively associated with C20:3 [all-Z-8,11,14] and lysine. One-unit increase in KTR resulted in increased probability of developing MCI by 371%. In contrast, one-unit increases in C20:3 and lysine were associated with decreased odds of developing MCI by 81% and 78%, respectively. Our finding underscores the prominent neuroinflammation, beyond normal aging, in MetS patients, even under ongoing clinical treatment. It also points to the potential of KTR as a risk marker for MCI, offering a valuable complement to the existing cognitive assessments that may be influenced by educational background. In addition, the validated metabolite data is an useful resource for future research. It can facilitate comparisons across different studies, contribute to large-scale analyses, and be used in machine learning models for discovering and validating new biomarkers. |

| Collection ID: | CO004068 |
| Collection Summary: | Blood was collected in EDTA-coated tubes and centrifuged at 3,000 rpm to obtain plasma. The plasma was then transferred into cryovials and stored at –85°C until use. |
| Sample Type: | Blood (plasma) |
Treatment:
| Treatment ID: | TR004084 |
| Treatment Summary: | All patients were divided into two groups: 1) MetS patients with MCI and 2) MetS patients with normal cognitive function. MCI was determined when the MoCA score was less than 23. |
Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP004081 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | Sample extraction of amino acids from plasma was modified from a published method. In brief, 30 µL of plasma was extracted with 1 mL of pre-cooled mixture of acetonitrile/isopropanol/water (3:3:2, v/v/v), containing isotopically labeled internal standards that include alanine-d3 and phenylalanine-d5 with final concentrations of ~ 5 ng/µL. The extracts were shaken at 2,000 rpm for 2 min using a vortex mixture (Scientific Industries) before being kept at -20ºC for 1 h. The extracts were then centrifuged for 10 min at 4ºC and 19,600 ×g. A 450-µL aliquot of supernatant was evaporated to dryness using a vacuum concentrator (Labconco, MO, USA) and kept at -20ºC until analysis. Prior to derivatization, the dried aliquot was resuspended in 450 µL acetonitrile/water (50:50, v/v) followed by centrifugation at 14,000 ×g and room temperature for 2 min. The supernatant was transferred to a new Eppendorf tube and dried at 50ºC under vacuum. The dried sample was reconstituted in 450 µL acetonitrile/water (50:50, v/v) before centrifugation at 14,000 ×g for 2 min at room temperature. The supernatant was evaporated to dryness. The dried samples were derivatized with 50 µL N-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl-N-methyltrifluoroacetamide with 1% tert-butyldimethylchlorosilane (MTBSTFA + 1% TBDMSCl) and 50 µL acetonitrile, followed by incubating at 100ºC for 4 h. |

| Chromatography Summary: | The quantification of amino acids was carried out using a GC-TOFMS (Pegasus HRT+4D, Leco Corp., St.Joseph, MI). The separation was achieved on a nonpolar Rxi-5sil MS column (5% diphenyl-methyl polysiloxane and 95% dimethylpolysiloxane, 30 m × 0.25 mm I.D., 0.25 μM film thickness, Restek). The injection volume was 1 µL, with the injector temperature of 250 ºC. in The samples were analyzed in splitless mode. Helium was used as a carrier gas at a constant flow rate of 1 mL min-1. The GC oven temperature program started at 50 ºC (2 min hold) and ramped to 320ºC at 20 ºC min-1 (3 min hold). Transfer line and electron impact (EI) ion source temperatures were kept at 320ºC and 250ºC, respectively. |
