AB - BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common chronic lung disease and its incidence is steadily increasing. COPD patients and mouse models of COPD share some similarities in lung pathology and physiology. We performed this study to explore the potential metabolic pathways involved in the pathogenesis of COPD and to discover the COPD-associated biomarkers. Furthermore, we aimed to examine how much the mouse model of COPD was similar and different to human COPD in terms of the altered metabolites and pathways. METHODS: Twenty human lung tissue samples (ten COPD and ten controls) and twelve mice lung tissue samples (six COPD and six controls) were analyzed by targeted HM350 metabolomics, and multivariate and pathway analysis were performed by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database. RESULTS: The counts of many metabolites such as amino acids, carbohydrates and carnitines were changed in both COPD patients and mice compared to controls, respectively. While lipid metabolism was changed only in COPD mice. After KEGG analysis, we found these altered metabolites involved in COPD through aging, apoptosis, oxidative stress and inflammation pathways. CONCLUSIONS: The expressions of metabolites changed in both COPD patients and cigarette smoke exposed (CS-exposed) mice. And there were also some differences between COPD patients and mouse models due to the differences between species. Our study suggested the dysregulation in amino acid metabolism, energy production pathway and perhaps lipid metabolism may be significantly related to the pathogenesis of COPD.
