This study demonstrated that potential markers for the early prediction of ATB-DILI can be found through plasma metabolomics and lipidomics. The random forest model showed good clinical predictive value for ATB-DILI.
Background: Anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury (ATB-DILI) is an adverse reaction with a high incidence and the greatest impact on tuberculosis treatment. However, there is a lack of effective biomarkers for the early prediction of ATB-DILI. Herein, this study uses UPLC-MS/MS to reveal the plasma metabolic profile and lipid profile of ATB-DILI patients before drug administration and screen new biomarkers for predicting ATB-DILI. Methods: A total of 60 TB patients were enrolled, and plasma was collected before antituberculosis drug administration. The untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics analyses were performed using UPLC-MS/MS, and the high-resolution mass spectrometer Q Exactive was used for data acquisition in both positive and negative ion modes. The random forest package of R software was used for data screening and model building. Results: A total of 60 TB patients, including 30 ATB-DILI patients and 30 non-ATB-DILI subjects, were enrolled. There were no significant differences between the ATB-DILI and control groups in age, sex, smoking, drinking or body mass index (p > 0.05). Twenty-two differential metabolites were selected. According to KEGG pathway analysis, 9 significantly enriched metabolic pathways were found, and both drug metabolism-other enzymes and niacin and nicotinamide metabolic pathways were found in both positive and negative ion models. A total of 7 differential lipid molecules were identified between the two groups. Ferroptosis and biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids were involved in the occurrence of ATB-DILI. Random forest analysis showed that the model built with the top 30 important variables had an area under the ROC curve of 0.79 (0.65-0.93) for the training set and 0.79 (0.55-1.00) for the validation set. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that potential markers for the early prediction of ATB-DILI can be found through plasma metabolomics and lipidomics. The random forest model showed good clinical predictive value for ATB-DILI.
