rimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) – a gut-microbiota derived metabolite –
is an emerging biomarker of cardiometabolic risk. No studies have inves-
tigated the utility for TMAO as an early biomarker of diabetes risk. We inves-
tigated the association between plasma TMAO and biomarkers of diabetes
risk. The Oral Infections, Glucose Intolerance and Insulin Resistance Study
(ORIGINS) is a longitudinal cohort study among n=300 diabetes-free partic-
ipants enrolled at baseline and re-examined at 2-years. Participants were
men and women (77%) aged 20-55 years (mean=34 10) without: i) Diabetes
Mellitus based on self-report physician diagnosis, fasting plasma glucose
(FPG) 126 mg/dl or HbA1c 6.5% (48mmol/mol); ii) self-reported history of
myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, stroke or chronic inflammato-
ry conditions. Plasma TMAO was measured using Ultra Performance Liquid
Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry. Baseline FPG, HbA1C and insulin were
measured after an overnight fast. Insulin resistance was defined using HO-
MA-IR. FPG was remeasured two-years after baseline in n=241 participants.
Multivariable generalized linear models regressed FPG, HOMA-IR and HbA1c
on tertiles of TMAO. Multivariable relative risk regressions modeled prediabe-
tes across TMAO tertiles. Mean values of 2-year longitudinal FPG SE across
tertiles of TMAO were 86.6 0.9, 86.7 0.9, 86.4 0.9 (p=0.98). Trends were sim-
ilarly null for FPG, HbA1c and HOMA-IR, cross-sectionally. The prevalence ra-
tio of prediabetes among participants in the 2nd and 3rd TMAO tertiles (vs.
the 1st ) were 1.94 [95%CI 1.09-3.48] and 1.41 [95%CI: 0.76-2.61]. TMAO lev-
els are modestly associated with an increased prevalence of prediabetes in a
nonlinear fashion but not with insulin resistance or longitudinal FPG change.
