Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes, and it is the consequence of microvascular retinal changes due to high glucose levels over a long time. Metabolomics profiling is a rapidly evolving method used to identify the metabolites in biological fluids and investigate disease progression. In this study, we used a targeted metabolomics approach to quantify the serum metabolites in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Diabetes patients were divided into three groups based on the status of their complications: non-DR (NDR, n = 143), non-proliferative DR (NPDR, n = 123), and proliferative DR (PDR, n = 51) groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis and multiple testing corrections were performed to identify the significant differences in the metabolomics profiles of the different analysis groups. The concentrations of 62 metabolites of the NDR versus DR group, 53 metabolites of the NDR versus NPDR group, and 30 metabolites of the NDR versus PDR group were found to be si gnificantly different. Finally, sixteen metabolites were selected as specific metabolites common to NPDR and PDR. Among them, three metabolites including total DMA, tryptophan, and kynurenine were potential makers of DR progression in T2D patients. Additionally, several metabolites such as carnitines, several amino acids, and phosphatidylcholines also showed a marker potential. The metabolite signatures identified in this study will provide insight into the mechanisms underlying DR development and progression in T2D patients in future studies.
