Abstract: | This study investigates the effect of acute cysteamine (CS) supplementation on rat metabolism. A metabolomic strategy using
high-resolution 1H-NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with principal component analysis was applied to examine rat biological responses to CS
administration. Half of female Sprague–Dawley rats (2 groups of 6 rats) were each given doses of 150 mg CS/kg body weight
intraperitoneally. Urine samples were collected twice daily (0–8 and 8–24 h) from the rats following CS administration. The
identifiable biochemical effects associated with CS supplementation included decreased urinary concentrations of hippurate,
succinate, citric acid, and 2-oxoglutarate, as well as increased urinary concentrations of dimethylamine, dimethylglycine,
glycine, and taurine. These effects were predominately seen within the first 8 h after CS administration. Clear differences
in succinate, citric acid, and 2-oxoglutarate were observed 8–24 h following CS. The results suggest that CS supplementation
in the rats resulted in modulation of intestinal microbial metabolism and metabolic perturbation of the tricarboxylic acid
cycle. |
