2 Product Outline What is Metabolomics? Metabolomics, a relatively new entrant into the -omics arena and in several ways related to genomics and proteomics, is concerned with the rapid and high-throughput characterization of the small molecule metabolites found in an organism. Metabolomics provides the exceptional prospect of looking into genotypephenotype as well as genotype-envirotype relationships due to the fact that the metabolome is closely linked to the genotype of an organism, its physiology and its environment. The utilization of metabolomics has been growing in a range of health applications, such as pharmacology, pre-clinical drug trials, toxicology, transplant monitoring, newborn screening and clinical chemistry. Despite these advances, the field of metabolomics has been limited by the fact of inadequacy in the characterization of the human metabolome. Metabolomics enables in the detection and quantification of metabolites or low molecular weight molecules, which are constituents of the metabolome and are produced by active and living cells under different conditions and times in their life cycles. Due to its capability of observing mixtures of small molecules in living cells or in cell extracts, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is critical to the concept of metabolomics. Though the words metabolomics and metabonomics are very often used synonymously, there has been an endeavour to specify the meaning of each. Metabolomics is associated with cataloguing and quantifying the multitude small molecules that are present in biological fluids under different conditions. In contrast, metabonomics involves scrutinizing alterations in the metabolic profile of a complex biological system as a consequence of stresses, such as disease, changes in diet or exposure to toxins. A Brief History of Metabolomics The notion of biological fluids reflecting the health of an individual has been in existence for times immemorial. Doctors in ancient China made use of ants for evaluating patients urine and ascertaining the presence of high glucose content in order to confirm diabetes. The middle ages witnessed the use of urine charts for associating the colors, tastes and smells of urine to a range of medical conditions that were of metabolic origin. In the late 1940s, Roger Williams was instrumental in introducing the idea of individuals possessing a metabolic profile capable of being reflected in the composition of their biological fluids. He made use of paper chromatography in proposing that typical metabolic patterns in urine and saliva had an association with diseases, such as schizophrenia. However, technological advancements witnessed in the 1960s and 1970s were of immense help in the quantitative, as against the qualitative, measurement of metabolic profiles. Metabolic profiles was a term coined by Horning in 1971 after establishing that gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) could be utilized for measuring compounds present in human urine and tissue extracts. During the 1970s, groups of researchers were engaged in developing GC-MS techniques for monitoring the metabolites present in urine. During the same time, NMR spectroscopy, developed in the 1940s, was also going through rapid technological advancements. By the 1980s, this technique gained enough sensitivity for the identification of metabolites in unmodified biological samples. -3-

Biomarkers can be defined as objectively measurable biological characteristics that can be used to diagnose, monitor or predict the risk of disease. Some examples of biomarkers include BRCA1 mutations ass genetic markers for breast cancer risk, blood glucose as a standard chemical biomarker for diabetes monitoring, serum creatinine as a chemical marker for kidney function and prostate specific antigen (PSA) as a protein biomarker for prostate cancer. The emergence of -omics technologies, such as proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics has offered the potential of measuring, as well as using multiple biomarkers simultaneously for predicting or diagnosing disease. Physicians have been known to commonly use multiple physiological biomarkers for improving the sensitivity and specificity of clinical diagnosis. One illustration of this is assessing the risk of cardiac disease by studying an individual s age, body mass index (BMI), triglyceride level and cholesterol level. -15-

4 KEY MARKET TRENDS Plasma Metabolites as Biomarkers in Predicting Alzheimer s Disease Notwithstanding the research efforts being undertaken across the world for better understanding it, the diagnosis of Alzheimer s disease (AD) has still remained quite complex. Some approaches have required researchers to target the brain itself for investigating the chemistry around the formation of the amyloid proteins and their precursors in a bid to garner any diagnostic clues. Yet other approaches, primarily from researchers in China, have taken the recourse of metabolomics for finding out whether the lowmolecular-mass metabolites in the body could be of assistance in signaling the onset of AD. Though conceding that the application of metabolomics in AD is not a new concept, this group has emphasized that previous studies have either involved a limited number of patients or targeted a relatively small number of metabolites. These approaches have been modified to measure as many metabolites as possible in an attempt to find the most appropriate ones that get altered due to this crippling degenerative disease. In addition to AD, the researchers have also directed focus on amnestic mild cognitive impairment (amci) that can eventually lead to full-blown Alzheimer's. amci affects about 5%-20% of the older population, with typical symptoms being minor problems in day-today memory, planning, language and impaired attention span. The research has shed light on two distinct groups of metabolites found in human plasma, which offer the possibility of distinguishing between patients with Alzheimer s disease or amci and healthy individuals that could be of potential use in the early diagnosis of both conditions. The study has collected plasma from 57 people with Alzheimer's disease, 58 with amci and 57 healthy volunteers of average ages 74, 72 and 72 years, respectively. The complementary techniques of GC- MS and LC-MS were used for studying the metabolites, with both being conducted in time-of-flight instruments that can simultaneously record data from several compounds. The GC-MS technique has uncovered 545 chromatographic peaks, from which 85 have been identified from their retention times and mass spectra. The LC-MS technique has found 12,705 peaks, leading to the identification of 238 metabolites. Following statistical analysis, it was shown that 31 and 40 metabolites had altered abundances in Alzheimer's and amci patients, respectively. These comprised saturated and unsaturated fatty acids that were less in abundance and amino acids, some with reduced and some with increased abundance. Further whittling down of these compounds has been done by using ROC analysis and logistic regression to obtain a more manageable number for creating a panel of biomarkers for each condition. This has resulted in selecting arachidonic acid, N,Ndimethylglycine, thymine, glutamine, glutamic acid and cytidine for AD and arachidonic acid, N,Ndimethylglycine, thymine, 2-aminoadipic acid and 5,8-tetradecadienoic acid for amci. -31-
