This study aims to identify molecular alterations during the transition from prediabetes to diabetes using metabolomics.
Analyzed serum samples from 188 participants divided into Control, Prediabetes, and Diabetes groups based on ADA/WHO criteria.
Utilized untargeted gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) metabolomics and multivariate statistical analysis (PCA).
Observed metabolomic features across the glycemic continuum, although none were significant post FDR correction.
Diabetes correlated with substantial downregulation of amino acid features, lipid species, and organic acids compared to controls and prediabetes.
PCA showed a significant metabolic stratification primarily influenced by hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and elevated blood pressure.
Findings indicate exploratory metabolomic alterations that may link prediabetes and diabetes status.
