In this study, we aimed to identify potential metabolic biomarkers that can improve the diagnostic accuracy of sepsis. Sixty-six patients including 30 septic and 36 nonsepsis patients from an intensive care unit were recruited. The global plasma and urine metabolomic profiles were determined by ultr...
We extracted mitochondria from Hela cells which were treated with CCCP or DMSO for 2 h. The samples were digested by FAST and peptides were used DIA to analysis.
Although previous studies have shown that certain factors interfere with the sensitivity of propofol, the mechanisms for interindividual variability in response to propofol remain unclear. This study aimed to screen the metabolites to predict patients' sensitivity to propofol and to identify meta...
We present an orthogonal multidimensional separation platform that couples size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and RPLC based protein prefractionation to CZE-MS/MS for deep top-down proteomics of Escherichia coli. The platform generated high peak capacity (∼4000) for separation of intact proteins, l...
Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) are essential for bacterial survival and virulence as they are involved in catalysis, infection and biofilm formation. The basal metabolism of pathogenic bacteria would be disturbed by the deficiency of metal ions in the host environment. In this study, we found that Str...
Identification of new biomarkers may help in the early diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography equipped with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS) was used to analyze the untargeted lipidomics and compare plasma l...
