Metabolites are essential for life. They are the products of the chemical processes that occur in the body and are necessary for the body to function. Metabolites can be used as biomarkers to diagnose disease and to assess treatment efficacy.
In this blog, we’ll take a closer look at one specific metabolite. Topics of discussion include the biosynthesis and degradation in a broader health context, and the effects of dysregulation in disease.
Metabolite of the month is your sneak peek into the world of metabolomics. In this month´s article, we took a closer look at butyric acid, which is one of three common SCFAs in the human gut.
The metabolite of this month is choline, implicated in various aspects of neurological and cardiovascular health and function.
Trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), which has been suggested to be a “bad” metabolite
The metabolite of this month is 3-IAA, known as the most common plant growth hormone.
The metabolite of this month is p-cresol sulfate, a sulfate conjugate of the bacterial metabolite p-cresol, which is a uremic toxin.
