Circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D, nasopharyngeal airway metabolome, and bronchiolitis severity

Abstract

Low circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels are a risk factor for acute respiratory infection (e.g., bronchiolitis) in children. However, little is known about the relation of circulating 25OHD with the many downstream functional molecules in target organs – such as the airway – and with clinical outcomes. In this prospective multicenter study of infants (age <1 year) hospitalized with bronchiolitis, we measured serum 25OHD levels and profiled the metabolome of 144 nasopharyngeal airway samples. Among 254 metabolites identified, we defined a set of 20 metabolites that are related to lower serum 25OHD and higher vitamin D-binding protein levels. Of these metabolites, 9 metabolites were associated with a significantly higher risk of positive pressure ventilation use. These metabolites were glycerophosphocholines esterified with proinflammatory fatty acids (palmitate, arachidonate, linoleate, and stearate), sphingomyelins, alpha-hydroxyisovalerate, 2-hydroxybutyrate, and 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)lactate (all FDR<0.05). Based on the multicenter data, vitamin D-related airway metabolites were associated with risks of bronchiolitis severity.
