Abstract

Strokeisthesuddendeathofbraincellsinalocalized areaduetoan inadequatebloodflow or blood vessel rupture, and it seriously affects the quality of life. The metabolite biomarkers are needed for predicting the functional outcome of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). To identify biomarkers for AIS, untargeted LC/MS metabolomics was performed on plasma samples from subjects with favorable prognosis (mRS ≤ 2) and unfavorable prognosis (mRS>2). The identified markers were further absolutely quantified by a targeted MRM approach. There were 10 upregulated and 26 downregulated markers. Among these candidates, one was successfully identified as glycocholic acid and then absolutely quantified in plasma samples. Glycocholic acid could discriminate between subjects with favorable and unfavorable prognosis with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.68 and odds ratio of 5.88. Glycocholic acid was identified as a potential plasma metabolite marker of non-progressive outcomes after ischemic stroke and could serve as predictive prognostic markers for clinical acute stroke outcomes.
