Abstract

Migraine is a prevalent, disabling type of primary headache disorder associated with a high socioeconomic burden. The clinical management of migraine is challenging. This study was to identify potential serum lipidomic biomarkers of migraine. The serum lipidomic profile of migraine sufferers was compared with healthy individuals using Liquid Chromatography coupled to Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS). Volcano plot analysis by Student's t-test was performed to identify the differential metabolites. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed and the area under ROC curves (AUC) was calculated to evaluate whether the metabolites could be efficiently exploited for constructing a sensitive biomarker of migraine. A total of 29 serum metabolites from 4 classes of lipids including acylcarnitines, non-alpha-hydroxy-sphingosine ceramides (Cer_NSs), lysophosphatidylcholines (lysoPCs) and lysophosphatidylethanolamines (lysoPEs) were significantly different in migraine patients and controls. Of note, Cer_NSs were significantly elevated and lysoPEs were significantly decreased in migraine patients. LysoPE 18:1, lysoPE 18:2 and lysoPE 22:5 were found to be decreased in both positive and negative ion mode. Moreover, except for lysoPC 20:0, other lysoPCs were decreased in migraine patients. ROC curve analysis indicated that lysoPC 16:0 and lysoPC 20:0 are potential sensitive and specific biomarkers for migraine. LysoPC 16:0 and lysoPC 20:0 may be potential biomarkers for migraine. We suggest therapeutic management of these metabolites may be helpful in the prevention and treatment of migraine.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 04 March 2018.
All research outputs
#20,465,050
of 23,023,224 outputs
Outputs from Lipids in Health and Disease
#1,208
of 1,458 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#377,041
of 439,373 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Lipids in Health and Disease
#25
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,023,224 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,458 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.1. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 439,373 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
