MetabolomicsPREDICT: untargeted metabolomic profiling in a Brassica napus (canola) breeding population by GC-MS

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified thousands of genetic loci associated with complex plant traits, including many traits of agronomical importance. However, functional interpretation of GWAS results remains challenging because of large candidate regions due to linkage disequilibriu...

MetabolomicsDirect on-swab metabolic profiling of vaginal microbiome:host interactions during pregnancy and preterm birth

The pregnancy vaginal microbiome contributes to risk of preterm birth, the primary cause of death in children under 5 years of age. Here we describe direct on-swab metabolic profiling by Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (DESI-MS) for sample preparation-free characterisation of...

MetabolomicsPeripheral modulation of antidepressant targets MAO-B and GABAAR by harmol induces mitohormesis and delays aging in preclinical models
Reversible and sub-lethal stresses to the mitochondria elicit a program of compensatory responses that ultimately improve mitochondrial function, a conserved anti-aging mechanism termed mitohormesis. Here, we show that harmol, a member of the beta-carbolines family with anti-depressant properties, i...

MetabolomicsEmerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) infestation bioassays and metabolic profiles of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) provide evidence for an induced host defensive response to larval infestation

INTRODUCTION: Larvae of the invasive emerald ash borer [EAB, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)], kill over 99% of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marshall) trees they infest, yet a small percentage of green ash (“linge...

MetabolomicsAntiviral metabolite 3'-Deoxy-3',4'-didehydro-cytidine is detectable in serum and identifies acute viral infections including COVID-19

BACKGROUND: There is a critical need for rapid viral infection diagnostics to enable prompt case identification in pandemic settings and support targeted antimicrobial prescribing.

METHODS: Using untargeted high-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with...

MetabolomicsSex-specific effects of CD248 on metabolism and the adipose tissue lipidome

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...

MetabolomicsEvidence of altered fatty acid metabolism in dogs with naturally occurring valvular heart disease and congestive heart failure

INTRODUCTION: Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in adult dogs. The disease progresses over several years and affected dogs may develop congestive heart failure (HF). Research has shown that myocardial metabolism is altered in cardiac dise...

MetabolomicsGeographic variation of mutagenic exposures in kidney cancer genomes

International differences in the incidence of many cancer types indicate the existence of carcinogen exposures that have not been identified by conventional epidemiology yet potentially make a substantial contribution to cancer burden1. This pertains to clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), fo...

MetabolomicsSequential multi-omics analysis identifies clinical phenotypes and predictive biomarkers for long COVID

The post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), also known as long COVID, is often associated with debilitating symptoms and adverse multisystem consequences. We obtain plasma samples from 117 individuals during and 6 mth following their acute phase of infection to comprehensively profile and as...

MetabolomicsMetabolic phenotyping of urine from a dementia research cohort
To better understand the molecular mechanisms underpinning physiological variation in human populations, metabolic phenotyping approaches are increasingly being applied to studies involving hundreds and thousands of biofluid samples. Hyphenated ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectromet...
