Hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) is well‑known to exert a protective effect against hypoxic injury; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. The present study utilized a serum metabolomics approach to detect the alterations associated with HPC. In the present study, an animal model of HPC was established by exposing adult BALB/c mice to acute repetitive hypoxia four times. The serum samples were collected by orbital blood sampling. Metabolite profiling was performed using ultra‑performance liquid chromatography‑quadrupole time‑of‑flight mass spectrometry (UPLC‑QTOFMS), in conjunction with univariate and multivariate statistical analyses. The results of the present study confirmed that the HPC mouse model was established and refined, suggesting significant differences between the control and HPC groups at the molecular levels. HPC caused significant metabolic alterations, as represented by the significant upregulation of valine, methionine, tyrosine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC; 16:1), LysoPC (22:6), linoelaidylcarnitine, palmitoylcarnitine, octadecenoylcarnitine, taurine, arachidonic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid, and the downregulation of acetylcarnitine, malate, citrate and succinate. Using MetaboAnalyst 3.0, a number of key metabolic pathways were observed to be acutely perturbed, including valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis, in addition to taurine, hypotaurine, phenylalanine, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid metabolism. The results of the present study provided novel insights into the mechanisms involved in the acclimatization of organisms to hypoxia, and demonstrated the protective mechanism of HPC.
