Abstract

Abstract Background Individuals with sepsis exhibited a higher likelihood of benefiting from early initiation of specialized treatment to enhance the prognosis of the condition. The objective of this study is to identify potential biomarkers of sepsis by means of serum metabolomics. Materials and methods The screening of putative biomarkers of sepsis was conducted using serum samples from patients with sepsis and a control group of healthy individuals. The pathogenesis of sepsis was determined through the utilization of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based metabolic profiles and bioinformatic techniques, which in turn provided a foundation for timely diagnosis and intervention. Results Individuals with sepsis had significantly different metabolic characteristics compared to those with normal health. The concentrations of phosphatidylcholines (PCs), phosphatidylserine (PS), lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LysoPEs), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPCs) exhibited a decrease, while the levels of creatinine, C17-Sphinganine, and PS(22:0/22:1(11Z)) demonstrated an increase in the serum of sepsis patients when compared to the control group. Additionally, ROC curves were generated to assess the discriminatory ability of the differentially expressed metabolites. The area under the ROC curve for PS (22:0/22:1(11Z)) and C17-Sphinganine were determined to be 0.976 and 0.913, respectively. These metabolites may potentially serve as diagnostic markers for sepsis. Additionally, the pathogenesis of sepsis is associated with mTOR signaling, NF-κB signaling pathway, calcium signaling, calcium transport, and tRNA charging pathway. Conclusion The identification of differential expression of these metabolites in sepsis serum samples could aid in the timely diagnosis and intervention of sepsis, as well as enhance our understanding of its pathogenesis.
