Preliminary investigations of plasma lipidome and selenium levels in adults with treated hypothyroidism and in healthy individuals without selenium deficiency

Abstract The present preliminary study aimed to provide a targeted lipidomic analysis of Hashimoto (HT) and non-HT patients with well-controlled hypothyroidism as well as in healthy adults, and is the first to demonstrate the association of several components of the human lipidome with hypothyroidis...

description Abstract The present preliminary study aimed to provide a targeted lipidomic analysis of Hashimoto (HT) and non-HT patients with well-controlled hypothyroidism as well as in healthy adults, and is the first to demonstrate the association of several components of the human lipidome with hypothyroidism in relation to the total plasma selenium content. All the patients and age-, sex-, and BMI-matched healthy controls met the very strict qualification criteria. Se levels were analyzed by ICP-MS, and lipidome studies were conducted using TQ-LC/MS. The 40 acylcarnitines, 90 glycerophospholipids, and 15 sphingomyelins were identified and quantified. PCaaC26:0 and PCaaC40:1 were negatively correlated with Se concentrations. Other lipids that were negatively correlated with Se concentrations but did not present significant differences between the three groups in the Kruskal–Wallis ANOVA test were PCaaC32:0, PCaeC30:0, PCaeC36:5, SMC18:0, and SM C18:1. In the multiple linear regression analyses, Se levels showed negative relationship, whereas different phosphatidylcholines: PCaaC24:0, PCaaC26:0, PCaeC30:1, PCaeC34:0, PCaeC36:4, PCaeC42:0 were positively associated with the presence of (H). Different lipidome components were identified in healthy and hypothyroid patients regardless of the cause of that condition. Studies on larger populations are needed to determine cause-and-effect relations and the potential mechanisms underlying these associations.
