RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Aortic dissection (AD) significantly threated human cardiovascular health, extensive clinical-scientific research programs have been executed to uncover the pathogenesis and prevention. Unfortunately, no specific biomarker was identified for the causality or development of human AD. AIM OF REVIEW: Metabolomics, a high-throughput technique capable of quantitatively detecting metabolites, holds considerable promise in discovering specific biomarkers and unraveling the underlying pathways involved. Aiming to provide a metabolite prediction in human AD, we collected the metabolomics data from 2003 to 2023, and diligently scrutinized with the online system MetaboAnalyst 6.0. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW: Based on the data obtained, we have concluded the metabolic dynamics were highly correlated with human AD. Such metabolites (choline, serine and uridine) were frequently involved in the AD. Besides, the pathways, including amino acids metabolism and lipids metabolism, were also dysregulated in the disease. Due to the current limitation of metabolism analysis, the integrative omics data including genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics were required for developing the specific biomarker for AD.
