Objective: To study the characteristics of changes in serum metabolites in two Uyghur families with probable maturity-onset diabetes of young (MODY). Method: We gathered two probable MODY families composed of four generations of Uyghurs from Kashgar region, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. A total of 52 family members were gathered. Their general information, measured blood glucose levels, blood lipid levels, and blood pressure were analyzed. Using 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, serum metabolites were measured for each study participants. After having conducted data pretreatment on the spectrogram, orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) was used to interpret data. We divided subjects into two groups according to blood glucose (norrmal and high), blood pressure, body mass index (BMI) levels, and .. View More»
