Abstract
In this study, urinary metabolic profiles of patients with heart failure (HF) and healthy individuals were analyzed by LC-TOF-MS. Both reversed-phase chromatography and hydrophilic interaction chromatography were used to separate the endogenous metabolites in urine. Partial least-squares to latent structure-discriminant analysis was used for discriminating HF patients from healthy persons and the selection of potential biomarkers. The results suggested that the combination of LC-MS and multivariate statistical analysis could be used for HF diagnosis. The MS/MS experiments were carried out to identify the potential biomarkers which are important for the contribution to the discrimination. As a result, 12 potential biomarkers for HF were identified and the related metabolic pathways were studied.
