AB  - Pediatric cancer NMR-metabonomics might be a powerful tool to discover modified
biochemical pathways in tumor development, improve cancer diagnosis, and, consequently, treatment.
Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common kidney tumor in young children whose genetic and epigenetic
abnormalities lead to cell metabolism alterations, but, so far, investigation of metabolic pathways
in WT is scarce. We aimed to explore the high-resolution magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic
resonance (HR-MAS NMR) metabonomics of WT and normal kidney (NK) samples. For this study,
14 WT and 7 NK tissue samples were obtained from the same patients and analyzed. One-dimensional
and two-dimensional HR-MAS NMR spectra were processed, and the one-dimensional NMR data
were analyzed using chemometrics. Chemometrics enabled us to elucidate the most significant
differences between the tumor and normal tissues and to discover intrinsic metabolite alterations in
WT. The metabolic differences in WT tissues were revealed by a validated PLS-DA applied on HR MAS T2
-edited 1H-NMR and were assigned to 16 metabolites, such as lipids, glucose, and branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), among others. The WT compared to NK samples showed 13 metabolites
with increased concentrations and 3 metabolites with decreased concentrations. The relative BCAA
concentrations were decreased in the WT while lipids, lactate, and glutamine/glutamate showed
increased levels. Sixteen tissue metabolites distinguish the analyzed WT samples and point to altered
glycolysis, glutaminolysis, TCA cycle, and lipid and BCAA metabolism in WT. Significant variation
in the concentrations of metabolites, such as glutamine/glutamate, lipids, lactate, and BCAAs, was
observed in WT and opened up a perspective for their further study and clinical validation.

AB  - The infection with SARS-CoV-2 mostly leads to mild disease, but some individuals progress to severe disease with death outcome [1]. These severe cases are driven by the host response to the infection, with multisystem dysfunctions [1,2]. Timely intervention in patients in critical conditions could be crucial for their survival. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to understand the disease phase and its progression markers. Serum samples from two cohorts of patients, with mild (n = 92) and severe disease (n = 41) were analyzed, with two subgroups in each cohort, positive and negative to the virus. The samples were age and gender-matched to healthy volunteers (n = 87), too. Three NMR data sets (1H-NMR, T2, and edited by diffusion) were recorded on a 600 MHz Bruker AVANCE III spectrometer, and analyzed in MetaboAnalyst 5.0. Serum metabolomics showed that proteins, very low and low-density lipoproteins (VLDL and LDL), phospholipids, 
lysophosphatidylcholines among other 50 metabolites were disrupted. Furthermore, changes in the levels of NAD(P)+, hyperglycemia and dysregulated glucose were detrimental in people with COVID-19. Glu cose excess, increased levels of VLDL, and decreased proteins were related to the disease severity, and might be important for determining a patient’s phase of the disease, and NMR can greatly add to the differentiation between severe and mild symptoms.
