Urinary metabolomics of phenolic compounds reveals biomarkers of type-2 diabetes within the PREDIMED trial. Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 162:114703. [PMID: 37062219 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Phenolic compounds have been associated with protective effects against type-2 diabetes (T2D). We used a metabolomics approach to determine urinary phenolic metabolites associated with T2D and fasting plasma glucose. METHODS This case-control study within the PREDIMED trial included 200 participants at high cardiovascular risk, 102 of whom were diagnosed with T2D. A panel of urinary phenolic compounds were analysed using a novel method based on liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Multivariate statistics and adjusted logistic regressions were applied to determine the most discriminant compounds and their association with T2D. The relationship between the discriminant phenolic compounds and plasma glucose was assessed using multivariable linear regressions. RESULTS A total of 41 phenolic compounds were modeled in the orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis, and after applying adjusted logistic regressions two were selected as discriminant: dihydrocaffeic acid (OR = 0.22 (CI 95 %: 0.09; 0.52) per 1-SD, p-value = 0.021) and genistein diglucuronide (OR = 0.72 (CI 95%: 0.59; 0.88) per 1-SD, p-value = 0.021). Both metabolites were associated with a lower risk of suffering from T2D, but only dihydrocaffeic acid was inversely associated with plasma glucose (β = -17.12 (95 % CI: -29.92; -4.32) mg/dL per 1-SD, p-value = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS A novel method using a metabolomics approach was developed to analyse a panel of urinary phenolic compounds for potential associations with T2D, and two metabolites, dihydrocaffeic acid and genistein diglucuronide, were found to be associated with a lower risk of this condition.

Abstract
Cheonggukjang is a naturally fermented soybean food of Korea. The present study was aimed to reveal the whole microbial community structure of naturally fermented cheonggukjang along with the prediction of microbial functional profiles by shotgun metagenomic sequence analysis. Metataxonomic profile of cheonggukjang samples showed different domains viz. bacteria (95.83%), virus (2.26%), unclassified (1.84%), eukaryotes (0.05%) and archaea (0.005%). Overall, 44 phyla, 286 families, 722 genera and 1437 species were identified. Firmicutes was the most abundant phylum (98.04%) followed by Proteobacteria (1.49%), Deinococcus-Thermus (0.14%). Bacillus thermoamylovorans was the most abundant species in cheonggukjang followed by Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus glycinifermentans, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus paralicheniformis, Bacillus amyloliquifaciens, Brevibacillus borstelensis, Brevibacillus sonorensis Brevibacillus, Acinetobacter, Carnobacterium, Paenibacillus, Cronobacter Enterococcus, Enterobacter, Terriglobus, Psychrobacter and Virgibacillus. A colossal diversity of the genus Bacillus was detected with 150 species. Functional analysis of cheonggukjang metagenome revealed the genes for the synthesis and metabolism of wide range of bioactive compounds including, various essential amino acids, conjugated amino acids, different vitamins, flavonoids, and enzymes. Amino acid profiles obtained from KEGG annotation in cheonggukjang were validated with experimental result of amino acid profiles.

Abstract
Cheonggukjang (CGJ, fermented soybean paste), a traditional Korean fermented dish, has recently emerged as a functional food that improves blood circulation and intestinal regulation. Considering that excessive consumption of refined salt is associated with increased incidence of gastric cancer, high blood pressure, and stroke in Koreans, consuming CGJ may be desirable, as it can be made without salt, unlike other pastes. Soybeans in CGJ are fermented by Bacillus strains (B. subtilis or B. licheniformis), Lactobacillus spp., Leuconostoc spp., and Enterococcus faecium, which weaken the activity of putrefactive bacteria in the intestines, act as antibacterial agents against pathogens, and facilitate the excretion of harmful substances. Studies on CGJ have either focused on improving product quality or evaluating the bioactive substances contained in CGJ. The fermentation process of CGJ results in the production of enzymes and various physiologically active substances that are not found in raw soybeans, including dietary fiber, phospholipids, isoflavones (e.g., genistein and daidzein), phenolic acids, saponins, trypsin inhibitors, and phytic acids. These components prevent atherosclerosis, oxidative stress-mediated heart disease and inflammation, obesity, diabetes, senile dementia, cancer (e.g., breast and lung), and osteoporosis. They have also been shown to have thrombolytic, blood pressure-lowering, lipid-lowering, antimutagenic, immunostimulatory, anti-allergic, antibacterial, anti-atopic dermatitis, anti-androgenetic alopecia, and anti-asthmatic activities, as well as skin improvement properties. In this review, we examined the physiological activities of CGJ and confirmed its potential as a functional food.
