PG - 130-146 LID - 10.1021/acs.jproteome.8b00439 [doi] AB - Reactive arthritis (ReA) is a member of seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SSA), which involves an acute/subacute onset of asymmetrical lower limb joint inflammation weeks after a genitourinary/gastrointestinal infection. The diagnosis is clinical because it is difficult to culture the microbes from synovial fluid. Arthritis patients with a similar clinical picture but lapsed history of an immediate preceding infection that do not fulfill the diagnostic criteria of other members of SSA, such as ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and arthritis associated with inflammatory bowel disease, are labeled as peripheral undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy (uSpA). Both ReA and uSpA patients show a strong association with class I major histocompatibility complex allele, HLA-B27, and a clear association with an infectious trigger; however, the disease mechanism is far from clear. Because the clinical picture is largely dominated by rheumatoid-arthritis (RA)-like features including elevated levels of inflammatory markers (such as ESR, CRP, etc.), these overlapping symptoms often confound the clinical diagnosis and represent a clinical dilemma, making treatment choice more generalized. Therefore, there is a compelling need to identify biomarkers that can support the diagnosis of ReA/uSpA. In the present study, we performed NMR-based serum metabolomics analysis and demonstrated that ReA/uSpA patients are clearly distinguishable from controls and further that these patients can also be distinguished from the RA patients based on the metabolic profiles, with high sensitivity and specificity. The discriminatory metabolites were further subjected to area under receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, which led to the identification of four metabolic entities (i.e., valine, leucine, arginine/lysine, and phenylalanine) that could differentiate ReA/uSpA from RA.
