Title

Discovery and validation of plasma biomarkers for major depressive disorder classification based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

Overall design

In this study, a nontargeted metabolomics approach based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) was used to find the differential metabolites in plasma samples from patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and healthy controls. Furthermore, a validation analysis focusing on the differential metabolites was performed in another batch of samples using a LC-MS-based targeted approach based on the dynamic multiple reactions monitoring method. In the discovery set, first-episode drug-naive MDD patients (depressed group, n = 60) and healthy control subjects (control group, n = 59) were included. In the validation set, the other 75 MDD patients and 52 healthy control subjects were assigned.
