Title | Polyunsaturated fatty acids metabolism, purine metabolism and inosine as potential independent diagnostic biomarkers for major depressive disorder in children and adolescents |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to identify biomarkers in plasma samples from depressed children and adolescents and healthy controls based on a non-targeted metabolomics approach. An ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry-based (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) non-targeted metabolomics approach was used to compare the plasma metabolic profiles among the drug-naive depressed subjects (drug-naive MDD group, n = 52), drug-treatment depressed subjects (drug-treatment MDD group, n = 32) and matched healthy controls (control group, n = 50) in order to identify biomarkers for depression in children and adolescents. |
