With menopause onset, most women gain weight and redistribute adipose tissue with the development of abdominal obesity and concomitant metabolic disorders, which is accompanied by a significant rise in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM). Almost all biochemical processes in the body are known to occur with the involvement of lipids. Due to this property, lipids can serve as predictors for various diseases. With the development of mass spectrometry methods, it has now become possible to assess lipid metabolism in more details. Mass spectrometry can identify hundreds of lipids, which significantly expands their diagnostic capabilities. The scientific literature contains data that most sphingolipids are associated with obesity, as well as with the development of type 2 DM and CVD. The levels of ceramides (a type of sphingolipids) differ in general and abdominal obesity. Measurement of plasma circulating ceramide levels can be useful for metabolic risk stratification in women during postmenopause when changes occur in their body composition. Higher levels of ceramides Cer) d18:1/24:0 and Cer d18:1/24:1, as well as phosphatidylcholine (PC) O36:1 and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) 36:2 are detectable in postmenopausal versus premenopausal women. Studies of the levels of ceramide to assess the risk of CVD are already available in a number of foreign laboratories. Lipid and carbohydrate metabolic changes in women often occur already at the stage of the menopausal transition; therefore this period is of particular scientific interest. This article provides an overview of the available data on the lipid profile changes undetected by classical methods, and their potential role in the development of metabolic and endocrine disorders in menopausal women.
Conclusion. The development of omix technologies is of fundamental importance for the elaboration of new approaches to the early diagnosis and treatment of cardiometabolic diseases.
