Prostate cancer (PCa) is associated with cellular metabolism alterations leading to changes of the metabolome. So far, studies investigating these alterations mainly focused on comparisons of metabolite profiles of PCa patients and healthy controls. In the present study we compared for the first time metabolite profiles in a significant number of paired urine samples collected before and eight weeks after radical prostatectomy (rPX) in 34 patients with PCa. Our comprehensive non-targeted liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric metabolomics approach covered > 3000 metabolite ion masses. We annotated 23 metabolites showing significant changes eight weeks after rPX. While the levels of uridine and six acylcarnitines in urine were increased before surgery, lower levels were detected for 16 metabolites, like e.g. citrate, phenyl-lactic acid, choline, myo-inositol, emphasizing a relevant pathophysiological role of these biomarkers and the associated metabolic pathways. These results have important implications for potential use of metabolome analyses for detection of prostate cancer and related pathologic and molecular features.
