Study Title | Characterization of the transpulmonary metabolome at the intersection of pulmonary vascular disease and exercise |
Study Summary | Pathologic implications of dysregulated pulmonary vascular metabolism to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are increasingly recognized, but their clinical applications have been limited. We hypothesized that metabolite quantification across the pulmonary vascular bed in connective tissue disease (CTD)-associated PAH would identify transpulmonary gradients of pathobiologically relevant metabolites, in an exercise stage-specific manner. 63 CTD patients with established or suspected PAH underwent exercise right heart catheterization. Using mass spectrometry-based metabolomics, metabolites were quantified in plasma samples simultaneously collected from the pulmonary and radial arteries at baseline and during resistance-free wheeling, peak exercise, and recovery. We identified uptake and excretion of metabolites across the pulmonary vascular bed, unique and distinct from single vascular site analysis. We demonstrated the physiological relevance of metabolites previously shown to promote disease in animal models and end-stage human lung tissues, including acylcarnitines, glycolytic intermediates, and tryptophan catabolites. Notably, pulmonary vascular metabolite handling was exercise stage-specific. Transpulmonary metabolite gradients correlated with hemodynamic endpoints largely during free-wheeling. Glycolytic intermediates demonstrated physiologic significance at peak exercise, including net uptake of lactate in those with more advanced disease. Contribution of pulmonary vascular metabolism to CTD-PAH pathogenesis and therapeutic candidacy of metabolism modulation must be considered in the context of physiologic stress. |

Project Title: | Physiologic Relevance of Transpulmonary Metabolome in Connective Tissue Disease-Associated Pulmonary Vascular Disease |
Project Summary: | Previous studies attempted to deduce metabolic changes in the pulmonary vasculature of PAH patients by analyzing their plasma metabolome. The clinical applicability of these findings, however, has been limited by: (i) plasma collection from a single anatomic site reflecting metabolic disturbances of the whole body rather than the pulmonary vessels, and (ii) the incomprehension of how metabolism relates to exercise physiology in PAH. We therefore aimed to quantify the transpulmonary (i.e., across the pulmonary vascular bed via two collection sites per patient per exercise timepoint) plasma metabolome in exercising connective tissue disease patients with suspected or confirmed PAH, with the goal of identifying metabolic signatures specific to the pulmonary vasculature and defining how they relate to physiologic, clinical parameters. |

Collection:
Collection ID: | CO003811 |
Collection Summary: | Patient recruitment: Over a 24-month period, we prospectively and consecutively recruited CTD patients with suspected or confirmed diagnosis of PAH from the Pulmonary Hemodynamic Assessment Program at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in São Paulo, Brazil, with the following inclusion criteria: age ≥ 18 years; CTD diagnosis according to current guidelines using clinical presentation and serology; and ability to provide informed consent. Patients were excluded if any of the following criteria was met: New York Heart Association functional class IV (symptomatic at rest); syncope or change in PAH therapy within 30 days before study; anemia (serum hemoglobin < 10 g/dL); osteoarticular limitation precluding exercise on a cycle ergometer; and pregnancy. Exercise RHC and transpulmonary metabolomics: All consenting patients underwent clinically indicated, standardized, incremental, symptom-limited exercise RHC on a cycle ergometer with radial arterial lines, for the purpose of PAH diagnosis or risk stratification. All subjects were required to fast for at least four hours prior to study participation. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) was calculated from hemodynamic variables as routinely performed and previously described. At the four sequential exercise stages – baseline (rest), free-wheeling (resistance-free pedaling), peak exercise, and two minutes into recovery (resistance-free pedaling) -- blood samples were simultaneously collected from the pulmonary artery and the systemic radial artery (i.e., across the pulmonary vascular bed), where both free-wheeling and recovery were done using resistance-free pedaling. The blood samples were immediately placed on ice upon collection, and isolated plasma was stored at -80°C until analyzed. |

Treatment Summary: | Patients and blood samples were not treated as part of this study. Information on PAH medications used by the enrolled patients is included in a forthcoming manuscript. |
Sample Preparation:
Sampleprep ID: | SP003825 |
Sampleprep Summary: | Plasma aliquots were thawed on ice then metabolites extracted from a 20 uL plasma aliquot using 480 uL of cold 5:3:2 MeOH:acetonitrile:water. Samples were vortexed 30 min at 4 degrees C then supernatants clarified by centrifugation (10 min, 10,000 g, 4 degrees C) and transferred to autosampler vials. |
