Diabetes mellitus is a typical metabolic disease.Its complications cause the main damage and lead to high mortality and disability eventually.The exact mechanism of diabetes is still unknown at present,and no radical cure of it is available.Therefore,the prevention of diabetes has become a priority.Metabolomics as a new technology can identify and measure the entire metabolic changes in the organism,and therefore has been widely applied to diabetes related studies with its enormous potential.
