Medulloblastomas (MBs) are malignant pediatric brain tumors that are molecularly and clinically very heterogenous. The application of omics technologies - mainly studying nucleic acids - has significantly improved MB classification and stratification, but treatment options are still unsatisfactor...

Increasing evidence indicates that shifts in brain polysaccharide metabolism can influence the progression of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Here we perform MALDI-MSI analysis of glycogen at different chain lengths in patients at different stages of Alzheimer's Disease. We look at frontal c...
Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is known to be a mutually beneficial plant-fungal symbiosis; however, the effect of mycorrhization is heavily dependent on multiple biotic and abiotic factors. Therefore, for the proper employment of such plant-fungal symbiotic systems in agriculture, a detailed underst...
Cd248 has recently been associated with adipose tissue physiology, demonstrated by reduced weight gain in high fat diet-fed mice with genetic deletion of Cd248 relative to controls. Here we set out to determine the metabolic consequences of loss of Cd248. Strikingly, we find these to be sex speci...
Cardiolipin (CL) is a phospholipid specific for mitochondrial membranes and crucial for many core tasks of this organelle. Its side chain configurations are tissue-specific, functionally important and generated via post-biosynthetic remodeling. However, this process lacks the necessary specificit...
Adjustments in muscle mass and metabolic demand are crucial for regulating whole-body metabolism, locomotion, eating, and respiration. Therefore, skeletal muscle is a central influencer of several human diseases. Muscle dysfunction correlates with the onset and progression of several metabolic di...
Toxocariasis, mainly caused by Toxocara canis, and to a lesser extent, Toxocara cati, is a neglected parasitic zoonosis. The mechanisms that underlie the changes in lipid metabolism of T. canis infection in Beagle dogs' lungs remain unclear. Lipidomics is a rapidly emer...
The gut microbiome has been implicated in multiple human chronic gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Determining its mechanistic role in disease has been difficult due to apparent disconnects between animal and human studies and lack of an integrated multi-omics view of disease-specific physiologica...
