Direct-infusion mass spectrometry (DIMS) metabolomics is an important approach for characterising molecular responses of organisms to disease, drugs and the environment. Increasingly large-scale metabolomics studies are being conducted, necessitating improvements in both bioanalytical and computatio...
Sweat is emerging as a prominent biosource for real-time human performance monitoring applications. Although promising, sources of variability must be identified to truly utilize sweat for biomarker applications. In this proof-of-concept study, a targeted metabolomics method was applied to sweat col...
INTRODUCTION: Combined infections from Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus are a leading cause of death in the developed world. Evidence suggests that Candida enhances the virulence of Staphylococcus - hyphae penetrate through tissue bar...
Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse embryonic fiborolasts (MEF) cells obtained from the eight Founder animals [PWK/PhJ, NZO/HILtJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, WSB/EiJ, A/J, CAST, C57BL/6J, and 129/SvlmJ] were immortalized and the cell lines used to assess differences in transcriptional responses following treatment with...
Staphylococcus aureus causes a spectrum of human infection. Diagnostic delays and uncertainty lead to treatment delays and inappropriate antibiotic use. A growing literature suggests the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys inflammatory response to the pathogen represents a potential tool to improve upon current diagno...

C-MYC (henceforth MYC) is one of the most frequently overexpressed oncogenes in human cancer and even modestly deregulated MYC expression can initiate ectopic proliferation in many post-mitotic, terminally differentiated cell types in vivo. Metazoan organisms have consequently evolved a number of me...
