Overview of metabolic processes associated with hypertension. Metabolites are associated with hypertension, mainly resulting from the dysregulation of various metabolisms of amino acid, fatty acid, glucose, and steroid hormone, increased oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. FFA (free fatty acids), PCs (phosphatidylcholines), LPCs (lysophosphatidylcholines), C10 (decanoic acid).
