PG - 34-42 LID - S0009-8981(20)30559-3 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.cca.2020.11.026 [doi] AB - Lipid mediators play an essential role in the pathogenesis of asthma. Many studies on the differential expression of sphingolipids and fatty acid exist, but relatively few concerned about glycerophospholipid (GP) metabolites in asthma. Here, plasma samples from 20 healthy controls and 24 asthmatic patients were collected and analyzed. High-performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-QTOF-MS) revealed that 29 GPs were identified and relatively quantified as differential metabolites for discriminating asthma patients and healthy subjects, consisting of six major subclasses of GPs. Moreover, a significant relevance was found between the selected metabolites and diagnostic and prognostic indicators of asthma. Remarkably, in subgroup analyses, plasma phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) levels were higher in patients with eosinophilic asthma than non-eosinophilic asthma. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the power of plasma PA and PG levels to distinguish between asthmatic patients and healthy subjects was strong (all areas under the curves > 0.9; P < 0.05). Our study characterized circulating GP metabolites in patients with asthma and explored their clinical relevance which may help to develop reliable biomarkers for early and accurate diagnosis based on lipid metabolites and provide novel insight into the role of GPs in asthma.
