Abstract
- • AECOPD patients with high CRP exhibited a distinct serum LysoPL metabolic profile. • There is a negative correlation between CRP and some LysoPLs in AECOPD. • Four LysoPLs were significantly reduced in the AECOPD patients with high CRP. • Certain LysoPLs species correlated with prognosis in AECOPD. The precise role of lysophospholipids (LysoPLs) in the pathogenesis of acute exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (AECOPD) remains unclear. In this study, we sought to elucidate the differences in serum LysoPL metabolite profiles and their correlation with clinical features between patients with low versus high CRP levels. A total of 58 patients with AECOPD were enrolled in the study. Patients were classified into two groups: low CRP group (CRP < 20 mg/L, n = 34) and high CRP group (CRP ≥ 20 mg/L, n = 24). Clinical data were collected, and the LysoPL metabolite profiles were analyzed using Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) and identified by matching with the LipidBlast library. Nineteen differential LysoPLs were initially identified through Student's t -test (p < 0.05 and VIP > 1). Subsequently, four LysoPLs, LPC(16:0), LPE(18:2), LPC(22:0), and LPC(24:0), were identified by FDR adjustment (adjusted p < 0.05). These four lysoPLs had a significant negative correlation with CRP. Integrative analysis revealed that LPC (16:0) and LPC (22:0) correlated with less hypercapnic respiratory failure and ICU admission. AECOPD patients with high CRP levels demonstrated a distinctive LysoPL metabolism profile, with LPC (16:0), LPE(18:2), LPC(22:0), and LPC(24:0) being the most significantly altered lipid molecules. These alterations were associated with poorer clinical outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
