Study Objective
• Metabolite predictors of deteriorating glucose tolerance may elucidate the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes
• Study investigated associations of circulating metabolites from high-throughput profiling with fasting and postload glycemia cross-sectionally and prospectively on the population level
Würtz P et al. Diabetes Care 2012;35:1749-1756
Study Design
• Oral glucose tolerance assessed in 2 Finnish population-based studies consisting of 1,873 individuals (mean age 52 years, 58% women)
• OGTT reexamined after 6.5 years for 618 individuals in one of the cohorts
• Metabolites quantified by NMR spectroscopy from fasting
serum samples • Associations were studied by linear regression models
adjusted for established risk factors

Results
• 19 circulating metabolites, including amino acids, gluconeogenic substrates, and fatty acid measures cross-sectionally associated with fasting and/or postload glucose (P< 0.001)
• Branched-chain amino acids, phenylalanine, and α1-acid glycoprotein predicted both fasting and 2-h glucose at 6.5-year follow-up (P< 0.05)
• Alanine, lactate, pyruvate, and tyrosine associated with 6.5-
year postload glucose (P = 0.003–0.04)

Conclusions
• Alterations in branched-chain and aromatic amino acid metabolism precede hyperglycemia in the general population
• Alanine, lactate, and pyruvate were predictive of postchallenge glucose
• These gluconeogenic precursors are potential markers of long-term impaired insulin sensitivity that may relate to attenuated glucose tolerance later in life
