BACKGROUND: Genomic prediction (GP) based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) has become a broadly used tool to increase the gain of selection in plant breeding. However, using predictors that are biologically closer to the phenotypes such as transcriptome and metabolome may...
The intestinal microflora and metabolites produced by these microbes serve as important regulators of the development of sepsis. Accordingly, this study was designed to systematically explore the relationships between the regulation of septicemia and both the intestinal flora and fecal metabolite...
Progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS) is currently diagnosed retrospectively. Here, we work towards a set of biomarkers that could assist in early diagnosis of PMS. A selection of cerebrospinal fluid metabolites (n=15) was shown to differentiate between PMS and its preceding phenotype in an indepe...
This study aimed to investigate systemic metabolic alterations underlying pain-depression comorbidity in the Recurrent Pelvic Pain (RPP) rat model using untargeted serum metabolomics (UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS). Comparative analysis revealed distinct metabolic profiles, identifying 234 differential meta...
Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome requiring aggressive management, and novel noninvasive biomarkers to enable risk stratification of sepsis with high confidence and to predict the sepsis-related outcomes are urgently needed.
A mass spectrometry–based quantitative method was used t...
Background. Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia worldwide, carries a high risk of severe complications. Patients diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) may progress to persistent atrial fibrillation (PerAF) following a period. We aimed to identify metabo...
Abstract
Background
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal pain and altered bowel habits. While gut microbiota alterations and metabolic disturbances have been implicated in IBS, t...
