Microbiome
The microbiome is made of microorganisms living in and on our body. Through metabolism, the microbiome contributes essential metabolites that contribute to our health, but can also release toxic metabolites that contribute to disease. The study of the microbiome together with host biology is currently one of the hottest topics in biomedical research.
N-acetyl-aspartic acid (NAA) – Significant metabolite for brain function, metabolism, and disease
N-acetyl-aspartic acid (NAA) is a key brain metabolite involved in neuronal health, myelin synthesis, and metabolism. Its strong MRS signal makes it a valuable biomarker for neurological disorders, while emerging research links it to oncology, psychiatric conditions, and the gut-brain axis. As metabolomics advances, NAA’s role in diagnostics and personalized medicine continues to expand.
Preventive medicine – Transform medicine with metabolomics – part 1 of 5
This is the first in a series of five blogs where I’ll discuss how metabolomics is set to transform medicine as we know it. The applications of omics in biomedical research are vast, and to help organize the different ways metabolomics can be used, I’ll discuss this in the context of 5P medicine.
Citric acid – Key metabolite in energy production, bone health, and disease therapy
A key metabolite in cellular energy production and various physiological processes such as fatty acid metabolism, amino acid synthesis, calcium signaling, anticoagulation and the regulation of pH balance.
