Method: Serum of 83 Orang Asli (OA), 50 healthy volunteers (HT) and 31 patients with history of myocardial infarction (MI) were analysed using LC/MS-Q/TOF. Targeted MS/MS were performed to validate the features of metabolites. Biochemical profiles were determined and recorded for all subjects. Metabolites that were significantly different between MI and HT (p<0.005, >2-fold-changes) were validated using AUROC analysis. Metabolites with AUOO.7 were selected as putative biomarkers, which were further used as variables in building a prediction model (PLSDA) differentiating healthy phenotype and MI. Results and discussions: Our finding revealed that lipids were the major metabolites that significantly different between OA and HT (p<0.005). AUROC analysis had identified twenty-two (22) metabolites as potential biomarkers for myocardial infarction. They include 15(S)-HETE (AUC=0.997), phosphorylcholine (AUC=0.995) and 24,24- Difluoro-25-hydroxy-26,27-dimethylvitamin D3 (AUC=0.976). Prediction results revealed that majority of the OA were clustered with the healthy subjects and therefore have similar metabolic state with the group. This shows that they are healthy as they had claimed and as further illustrated by the conventional biochemical analysis. There were however, seven (7) OA whose metabolite profiles were clustered with the patients group, highlighting that they had abnormality in lipid metabolism and implied that they-had MI. An evaluation of their biochemistry profiles show abnormalities of cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL. Conclusion: Metabolomics-PLSDA prediction model was developed in this study using comprehensive validation approach and it was able to predict the health status of the Orang Asli. This model was developed using the differential metabolite profiles of the MI and healthy volunteers; and would be useful for categorization of an individual’s phenotype to either group. 2015 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/15797/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/15797/1/TM_NORNAZLIYA%20MOHAMAD%20PH%2015_5.PDF text en public mphil masters Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Pharmacy
