Untargeted metabolomic analysis hits the target.
Propionic (PA) and methylmalonic (MMA) acidemias are inborn errors of the metabolism of several important amino acids, the side chain of the cholesterol molecule, and dietary odd chain-length fatty acids. PA results from a deficiency of mitochondrial propionyl-CoA carboxylase, an enzyme that requires biotin as a cofactor and converts propionyl-CoA to D-methylmalonyl-CoA. Classical MMA results f...
متن کاملUntargeted Metabolomic Analysis of Capsicum spp. by GC-MS.
INTRODUCTION In order to conserve the biodiversity of Capsicum species and find genotypes with potential to be utilised commercially, Embrapa Clima Temperado maintains an active germplasm collection (AGC) that requires characterisation, enabling genotype selection and support for breeding programmes. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to characterise pepper accessions from the Embrapa ...
متن کاملUntargeted metabolomic analysis of miltefosine action in Leishmania infantum reveals changes to the internal lipid metabolism☆
There are many theories as to the mode of action of miltefosine against Leishmania including alterations to the membrane lipid content, induction of apoptosis and modulation of macrophage responses. Here we perform untargeted metabolomics to elucidate the metabolic changes involved in miltefosine action. Over 800 metabolites were detected, 10% of which were significantly altered after 3.75 h. M...
متن کاملUntargeted Metabolomic Analysis of Amniotic Fluid in the Prediction of Preterm Delivery and Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
OBJECTIVE Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a serious complication associated with preterm birth. A growing body of evidence suggests a role for prenatal factors in its pathogenesis. Metabolomics allows simultaneous characterization of low molecular weight compounds and may provide a picture of such a complex condition. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether an unbiased metabolomic ana...
متن کاملTarget practice: Zic2 hits the bullseye!
A major challenge in biology is to unravel how the billions of neurons of the nervous system make appropriate functional connections. This is known to be a multistep developmental process that includes guiding, targeting and refinement of axons. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Garcı́a-Frigola and Herrera show compelling evidence that, within the visual system, the same transcription factor (Z...
