During human fasting, metabolic markers, including butyrates, carnitines, and branched-chain amino acids, are upregulated for energy substitution through gluconeogenesis and use of stored lipids. We performed non-targeted, accurate semiquantitative metabolomic analysis of human whole blood, plasma, ...
The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) integrates cellular nutrient signaling and hormonal cues to control metabolism. We have previously shown that constitutive nutrient signaling to mTORC1 by means of genetic activation of RagA (RagAGTP) in mice resulted in a fatal energetic crisis...
Metabolomics, a new branch of chemical biology, provides compositional and quantitative information about the state of organism or cell at the levels of metabolite constituents. We here report non-targeted metabolome of human blood that is made up of plasma and red blood cells (RBCs), using liquid-c...

Glucose as a source of energy is centrally important to our understanding of life. We investigated the cell division-quiescence behavior of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe under a wide range of glucose concentrations (0-111 mM). The mode of S. pombe cell division under a microfluidic per...
Metabolites present in human blood document individual physiological states influenced by genetic, epigenetic, and lifestyle factors. Using high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), we performed nontargeted, quantitative metabolomics analysis in blood of 15 young (29 ± 4 y of ...
Previous epidemiological and laboratorial studies have demonstrated a close relationship between plasma manganese (Mn) levels and type 2 diabetes (T2D), however, the underlying mechanism remains undisclosed. In this study, we employed a comprehensive approach that integrated fecal 16S rRNA sequen...
Cholecystectomy is associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS); however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. The gallbladder acts as a storage organ for hepatic bile and regulates the feeding/fasting cycles of bile acid (BA) flow in the enterohepatic circulation (EHC). In...
