Identification of serum metabolic markers in non-obese hypertensive patients using non-targeted metabolomics by Yifan Xu, Yilin Jiang, Jia Lu, Chen Xu, Qing Li, Hongjun Zhu

“…A non-targeted metabolomics approach was used to quantify serum metabolites in 120 patients with newly diagnosed hypertension, and to determine the metabolomic characteristics of J-HTN and two types of obese hypertension (fat-dominant and muscle-dominant). 4 metabolites unique to J-HTN were identified, with lysophosphatidylcholine 22:6 (LysoPC(22:6/0:0)) standing out as the marker showing the most pronounced difference. Using the serum metabolome alone, we were able to distinguish J-HTN from other hypertensive patients. …”
