Pre-diagnostic disturbances in gut microbiome and metabolome have been associated with an increased risk of diabetes in non-pregnant populations. However, such prospective studies in pregnant women are scant. We aimed to develop and validate microbiome-derived metabolite predictive markers in early to mid-pregnancy for GDM. We designed a nested case-control study (91 GDM, 180 non-GDM; discovery set) and a random subsample (42 GDM, 372 non-GDM; validation set 1) from the PETALS cohort, and a case-control study from the GLOW trial (35 GDM, 70 non-GDM; validation set 2) . We collected fasting serum untargeted metabolomics data at gestational weeks (GW) 10-13 and 16-by gas chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) , liquid chromatography (LC) /quadrupole TOF-MS, and hydrophilic interaction LC/quadrupole TOF-MS. Among 1167 annotated metabolites, 193 microbiome-derived metabolites were identified from the Virtual Metabolic Human Database. Multivariate enrichment analysis examined metabolite-GDM associations. Ten-fold cross-validated LASSO prediction models identified metabolite signatures for GDM. At GW 10-13, the branched-chain amino acids cluster was marginally, positively associated with GDM risk (FDR = 0.073) . At GW 16-19, the ceramides, pyridines, pyrimidine nucleosides, and unsaturated fatty acids clusters were significantly, positively associated with GDM risk (all FDR Disclosure Y.Zhu: None.
