Given that hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC) exhibits unique gut microbial and metabolic characteristics that influence the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, a better understanding of the correlations among gut microbiota, metabolism, and immunosuppressive...
Blood microsampling (BµS) devices collect less than 100 µL of blood, offering a less invasive and more cost-effective alternative to venipuncture. However, its metabolomic comparability to conventional samples remains unclear, and standardized BµS metabolomic workflows are lacking. This study com...
Background: Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) poses a significant challenge for patients with colorectal tumor, often resulting in treatment interruption or discontinuation and subsequent treatment failure. Herein, a longitudinal untargeted metabolomic study to reveal the metabolom...
Dementia is caused by factors that damage neurons. We quantified small molecular markers in whole blood of dementia patients, using non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LC-MS). Thirty-three metabolites, classified into 5 groups (A-E), differed significantly in dementia patients, ...
Capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE-MS) offers considerable advantages for polar compound metabolomics analysis, including simple workflows, fast method development, and suitability for small sample volumes. Blood microsampling (BμS) techniques (such as dried blood spots, quantitative...
Blood plays a vital role in diagnostic medicine by providing essential information for assessing health and diagnosing various conditions. Routine blood tests can reveal important biomarkers that support early diagnosis and timely intervention. Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged ...
