This study assesses the stability of metabolite levels in plasma and liver interstitial fluid (IF) from mice subjected to different handling times prior to extraction. Blood and tissues from female C57BL/6J mice were collected and either processed immediately or held on ice for 5, 10, or 30 minut...
Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) pose a significant challenge for aging surgical patients, with sevoflurane anesthesia being an identified risk factor. Time-restricted feeding (TRF), a dietary regimen, shows promise in mitigating age-related cognitive decline, but its efficacy and mec...
Organic carbon in seawater plays a significant role in the global carbon cycle. The concentration and composition of dissolved organic carbon, operationally defined in this project as organic carbon that passes through a 0.2 µm filter, reflect the actions of the biological community and chemical ...
Aspartate is crucial for nucleotide synthesis, ammonia detoxification and maintaining redox balance via the malate-aspartate-shuttle (MAS). To disentangle these multiple roles of aspartate metabolism, tools are required that measure aspartate concentrations in real time and in live cells. We intr...
Excess cortisol exposure and disruption of the circadian cortisol profile are both associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to identify unique metabolites and metabolic pathways associated with total cortisol exposure and/or variation of the cortisol time profile. Eigh...
