Bretschneider solution-induced alterations in the urine metabolome in cardiac surgery patients.
Scientific Reports 2018 December 12
The development of Bretschneider's histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) cardioplegia solution represented a major advancement in cardiac surgery, offering significant myocardial protection. However, metabolic changes induced by this additive in the whole body have not been systematically investigated. Using an untargeted mass spectrometry-based method to deeply explore the urine metabolome, we sought to provide a holistic and systematic view of metabolic perturbations occurred in patients receiving HTK. Prospective urine samples were collected from 100 patients who had undergone cardiac surgery, and metabolomic changes were profiled using a high-performance chemical isotope labeling liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. A total of 14,642 peak pairs or metabolites were quantified using differential 13 C-/12 C-dansyl labeling LC-MS, which targets the amine/phenol submetabolome from urine specimens. We identified 223 metabolites that showed significant concentration change (fold change > 5) and assembled several potential metabolic pathway maps derived from these dysregulated metabolites. Our data indicated upregulated histidine metabolism with subsequently increased glutamine/glutamate metabolism, altered purine and pyrimidine metabolism, and enhanced vitamin B6 metabolism in patients receiving HTK. Our findings provide solid evidence that HTK solution causes significant perturbations in several metabolic pathways and establish a basis for further study of key mechanisms underlying its organ-protective or potential harmful effects.
