BACKGROUND: Metabolomic characterization of tumours can potentially improve prediction of cancer prognosis and treatment response. Here, we describe efforts to validate previous metabolomic findings using a historical cohort of breast cancer patients and discuss challenges with u...
Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis. Metabolic abnormalities are one of the hallmarks of pancreatic cancer, and pancreatic cancer cells can adapt to biosynthesis, energy intake and redox needs through metabolic reprogramming to tolerate nutrient deficiency and hypoxic ...
Plasma samples were analyzed using UPLC-MS/MS untargeted metabolomics. The dataset comprised 144 participants. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) three-dimensional scores plot distinguishing GC patients from non-GC controls. Metabolic profiling and differential comparison identi...
Ovarian cancer (OC) causes high mortality in women because of ineffective biomarkers for early diagnosis. Here, we perform metabolomics analysis on an initial training set of uterine fluid from 96 gynecological patients. A seven-metabolite-marker panel consisting of vanillylmandelic acid, norepin...
Gastric cancer (GC) is a severe malignancy characterized by late diagnosis, poor prognosis and low survival rates. Its progression is often linked to chronic non-atrophic gastritis (CNAG) and chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), which show atypical symptoms. Identifying biomarkers for CNAG, CAG and ...
