[ 1 ] - Metabolomics diagnostic approach to mustard airway diseases: a preliminary study

Objective(s): This study aims to evaluate combined proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolic profiling approaches, for discriminating between mustard airway diseases (MADs) and healthy controls and for providing biochemical information on this disease. Materials and Methods: In the present study, analysis of serum samples ...

[ 2 ] - Fluoxetine Regulates Ig Kappa Chain C Region Expression Levels in the Serum of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Patients: A proteomic Approach

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is one of the most common mental conditions. Proteome profiling may help identifying important proteins and finally shed lights to complexity of OCD underlying mechanisms. Here, by the application gel-based proteomic approach the proteome profile of patients with washing subtype of OCD before and after treatment with Fluoxetine (positive responders) are compa...

[ 4 ] - Effect of ghrelin on serum metabolites in Alzheimer’s disease model rats; a metabolomics studies based on 1H-NMR technique

Objective(s): Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is dysfunction of the central nervous system and as a neurodegenerative disease. The objective of this work is to investigate metabolic profiling in the serum of animal models of AD compared to healthy controls and then to peruse the role of ghrelin as a therapeutic approach for the AD.Materials and Methods: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique was u...

[ 5 ] - Serum-based metabolic alterations in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma unveiled by non-targeted 1H-NMR metabolomics approach

Objective(s): As the most prevalent endocrine system malignancy, papillary thyroid carcinoma had a very fast rising incidence in recent years for unknown reasons besides the fact that the current methods in thyroid cancer diagnosis still hold some limitations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to improve the potential molecular markers for diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules to...

[ 6 ] - Survey of potential diagnostic metabolite markers in serum of the rat model of Alzheimer’s disease using nuclear magnatic resonance (1H-NMR) technique

Introduction: The high prevalence of Alzheimerchr('39')s disease (AD) in todaychr('39')s societies indicates an urgent need for the development of methods that will help the early diagnosis of the disease. In this study, using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry (1H-NMR) metabolomics, identification of altered and distinct metabolites in serum of the rat model of AD was performed com...
