MetabolomicsA microfluidic chip recapitulating the human neurovascular unit with a functional blood-brain barrier for modeling gut-brain interactions

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential for central nervous system homeostasis, but most current in vitro models lack structural and functional fidelity. We developed a physiologically relevant human neurovascular unit microfluidic chip (hNVU-on-a-chip) incorporating brain microvascular endoth...

MetabolomicsMapping the biosynthetic pathway of a hybrid polyketide-nonribosomal peptide in a metazoan
Polyketide synthase (PKS) and nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) hybrid systems typically use complex protein-protein interactions to facilitate direct transfer of intermediates between these multimodular megaenzymes. In the canal-associated neurons (CANs) of Caenorhabditis elegans, PKS-1 and NR...

MetabolomicsMulti-omics association analysis reveals interactions between the oropharyngeal microbiome and the metabolome in pediatric patients with influenza A virus pneumonia.
Children are at high risk for influenza A virus (IAV) infections, which can develop into severe illnesses. However, little is known about interactions between the microbiome and respiratory tract metabolites and their impact on the development of IAV pneumonia in children. Using a combination of liq...

MetabolomicsEpistasis-driven identification of SLC25A51 as a regulator of human mitochondrial NAD import
About a thousand genes in the human genome encode for membrane transporters. Among these, several solute carrier proteins (SLCs), representing the largest group of transporters, are still orphan and lack functional characterization. We reasoned that assessing genetic interactions among SLCs may be a...

MetabolomicsIn plaque-mass spectrometry imaging of a bloom-forming alga during viral infection reveals a metabolic shift towards odd-chain fatty acid lipids (Imaging MS assays)

Tapping into the metabolic cross-talk between a host and its virus can reveal unique strategies employed during infection. Viral infection is a dynamic process that generates an evolving metabolic landscape. Gaining a continuous view into the infection process is highly challenging and is limited...

MetabolomicsLaser-assisted rapid evaporative ionisation mass spectrometry (LA-REIMS) as a metabolomics platform in cervical cancer screening

BACKGROUND: The introduction of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing as part of primary cervical screening is anticipated to improve sensitivity, but also the number of women who will screen positive. Reflex cytology is the preferred triage test in most settings but ha...

MetabolomicsMetabolomic and Metataxonomic Fingerprinting of Human Milk Suggests Compositional Stability over a Natural Term of Breastfeeding to 24 Months
Sparse data exist regarding the normal range of composition of maternal milk beyond the first postnatal weeks. This single timepoint, observational study in collaboration with the 'Parenting Science Gang' citizen science group evaluated the metabolite and bacterial composition of human milk from 62 ...

MetabolomicsA Cross-Platform Metabolomics Comparison Identifies Serum Metabolite Signatures of Liver Fibrosis Progression in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients
Metabolomics offers new insights into disease mechanisms that is enhanced when adopting orthogonal instrumental platforms to expand metabolome coverage, while also reducing false discoveries by independent replication. Herein, we report the first inter-method comparison when using multisegment injec...

MetabolomicsBiochemical Profiling of the Brain and Blood Metabolome in a Mouse Model of Prodromal Parkinson’s Disease Reveals Distinct Metabolic Profiles (NMR assay)
Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. In the vast majority of cases the origin is not genetic and the cause is not well understood, although progressive accumulation of α-synuclein aggregates appears central to the pathogenesis. Currently, treatments that slow dise...

MetabolomicsMetabolic Responses of a Model Green Microalga Euglena gracilis to Different Environmental Stresses

Euglena gracilis, a green microalga known as a potential candidate for jet fuel producers and new functional food resources, is highly tolerant to antibiotics, heavy metals and other environmental stresses. Its cells contain many high-value products, including vitamins, amino acids, pigm...
