Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the metabolomic characteristics of stage T1 papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)and nodular goiter(NG),and the relationship between metabolites and lymph node metastasis of PTC.METHODS Serum samples were collected from 60 patients with stage T1 PTC and 30 patients with NG who underwent thyroidectomy at the Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery,Civil Aviation General Hospital between September 2021 and April 2022.The PTC group was divided into the N+ group with lymph node metastasis and the N-group without lymph node metastasis according to the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis.The serum metabolites of the N+ and N-groups and the PTC and NG groups were compared and analyzed using an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS)coupled platform,and principal component analysis(PCA),partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA),and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA)was performed using SIMCA-P 14.1 software.OPLS-DA modeling,combined with FDR-corrected Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test results and metabolite difference multiples in the two groups undergoing comparison,etc.to screen for potential small molecule metabolic markers,and to establish a joint diagnostic model by binary logistic regression analysis.RESULTS There were no significant differential metabolites between the N+ group with lymph node metastasis and the N-group without lymph node metastasis.Seven differential metabolites were found between PCA patients and NG patients,and the five relevant metabolic pathways were the pentose phosphate pathway,pentose and glucuronide interconversion,glycolysis/gluconeogenesis,fructose,and mannose metabolism,and fatty acid biosynthesis.The differential metabolite with an area under the ROC curve>0.9 was D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate,and another N-undecanoylglycine,uronic acid,and the area under the ROC curve for three metabolites,N-undecanoylglycine,uric acid,and triiodothyronine glucuronide,was>0.8.CONCLUSION PTC patients differed from NG patients mainly in glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism,and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate could be distinguished from NG patients with the aid of N-undecanoylglycine,uric acid,and triiodothyronine glucuronide,combined with imaging findings.Also,no significant differences in serum metabolites were found in the N+ group compared with the N-group,and the presence or absence of lymph node metastases did not affect serum metabolites in patients with stage T1 PTC.关键词
