[Contribution of in vitro NMR spectroscopy to metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders].

In vitro Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a validated biochemical tool for metabolic analyses of human body fluids and diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism in children and adults. The technique is of special interest because it requires minimal sample preparation, it can detect simultaneously compounds of different nature and it offers structural information on the metabolites present in body fluids. In the last decade, in vitro NMR spectroscopy contributed to the identification of new inborn errors of metabolism, some of which are amenable to therapeutic intervention. Standardized analyses of body fluids, especially cerebrospinal fluid, are therefore indicated in patients affected with neurodegenerative disorders of unknown etiologies, for which extensive metabolic and genetic screening failed to identify the primary defect. In addition, the use of multivariate statistical analyses allows the comparison of the whole metabolic profile between patients with a given neurodegenerative disorder and controls. This so-called metabonomic approach yields promises for the discovery of biomarkers that can help detecting disease onset and progression, as well as evaluating therapeutic efficacy. Finally, the combination of in vitro NMR spectroscopy with genetic analytical tools may constitute a successful pathophysiological approach to investigate neurological disorders of unknown etiology.
