Diabetic retinopathy (DR), is a major cause of blindness, caused by prolonged diabetes. However, this morbidity is largely preventable and treatable. The progression of DR from prolonged diabetes involves complex metabolic de-regulations. 1H NMR-based metabolomics of serum have potential to study dysregulation in metabolites of DR patients. Results of the PCA and PLS-DA analysis revealed metabolic differences in DR patients compared to healthy subjects. Using such a study, we may observe the severity of disease based on metabolic fingerprints and it may serve as a platform for screening of molecular targets for a more efficient therapeutic intervention.
