Abstract

Objectives: The exact underlying mechanism of developing diabetes-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not clear. Metabolomics can provide a platform enabling the prediction, diagnosis, and understanding of the risk of CVD in patients with diabetes mellitus. The aim of this review is to summarize the available evidence on the relationship between metabolomics and cardiovascular diseases in patients with diabetes. Methods: The literature was searched to find out studies that have investigated the relationship between the alteration of specific metabolites and cardiovascular diseases in patients with diabetes. Results: Evidence proposed that changes in the metabolism of certain amino acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, independent of traditional CVD risk factors, are associated with increased CVD risk. Conclusions: Metabolomics can provide a platform to enable the prediction, diagnosis, and understanding of the risk of CVD in patients with diabetes mellitus. The association of the alteration in specific metabolites with CVD may be considered in the investigations for the development of new therapeutic targets for the prevention of CVD in patients with diabetes mellitus. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
