Abstract

Metabolites are reliable biomarkers for many diseases. However, their role in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) pathogenesis is not well understood. In this systematic review we aim to evaluate the current literature on the presence of metabolites in thrombi retrieved by mechanical thrombectomy from AIS patients. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines, we searched OVID Medline, PubMed, OVID Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science until July 13, 2022. Metabolites lists were extracted, and pathway analysis was performed in MetaboAnalyst database. Four articles listing metabolites were included in this systematic review. D-Glucose, diacylglycerol, phytosphingosine, galabiosylceramide, glucosylceramide and 4-hydroxynonenal were reported to be associated with clots. Metabolomics data analysis showed that glycolysis, lactose, and sphingolipid metabolism pathways were enriched. In conclusion, results of the present study show that the thrombi niche has a glycolytic phenotype. Future studies should work to better understand the metabolic properties of AIS thrombi.
