    The Metabolomic Approach Reveals the Alteration in Human Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid Composition in Parkinson’s Disease Patients

    by Szymon Plewa, Karolina Poplawska-Domaszewicz, Jolanta Florczak-Wyspianska, Agnieszka Klupczynska-Gabryszak, Bartosz Sokol, Wojciech Miltyk, Roman Jankowski, Wojciech Kozubski, Zenon J. Kokot, Jan Matysiak

    Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a major public health problem. Since currently there are no reliable diagnostic tools to reveal the early steps of PD, new methods should be developed, including those searching the variations in human metabolome. Alterations in human metabolites could help to establish an earlier and more accurate diagnosis. The presented research shows a targeted metabolomics study of both of the serum and CSF from PD patients, atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) patients, and the control. The use of the LC-MS/MS system enabled to quantitate 144 analytes in the serum and 51 in the CSF. This information about the concentration enabled for selection of the metabolites useful for differentiation between the studied group of patients, which should be further evaluated as candidates for markers of screening and differential diagnosis of PD and APDs. Among them, the four compounds observed to be altered in both the serum and CSF seem to be the most important: tyrosine, putrescine, trans-4-hydroxyproline, and total dimethylarginine. Furthermore, we indicated the metabolic pathways potentially related to neurodegeneration processes. Our studies present evidence that the proline metabolism might be related to neurodegeneration processes underlying PD and APDs. Further studies on the proposed metabolites and founded metabolic pathways may significantly contribute to understanding the molecular background of PD and improving the diagnostics and treatment in the future.

    Stroke is a major cause of morbidity in industrialized countries, representing 8% of total deaths across Europe in 2017. It is also a very costly disorder, frequently caused by atrial fibrillation. We aimed to calculate the cost of stroke hospitalization in 2018 in Poznań (Poland). We also intended to present patients with the first AF diagnosis at the time of stroke. The study was conducted from January 2019 to July 2020. Data were obtained from hospital records and from the hospital accounting department. Out of 164 patients included in the study, 41 had AF and in 18 cases AF was first diagnosed at the time of stroke. The cost of hospitalization in Poznań was EUR 139,257.21 (x¯= EUR 849.13). Among those with concomitant AF, the general cost of inpatient care was EUR 33,859.18 (x¯= EUR 825.83). Considering those who had AF first diagnosed during hospitalization the cost was EUR 16,248.97 (x¯= EUR 906.24). Stroke is associated with high costs of inpatient care, which turned out to be higher among those with AF first diagnosed at the time of stroke. The number of patients who used oral anticoagulants at the time of admission was relatively low. The most frequently used NOAC was dabigatran.
