Quantitative metabolic profiling based on gas chromatography.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The quantitative metabolic profiles of volatilizable components of human biological fluids, particularly urinary organic acids, is reviewed, with emphasis on the use of gas-chromatography/mass spectrometer/computer systems. Various definitions of metabolic profiling are considered and techniques for obtaining such profiles are discussed. The role of computer processing of such data is examined, and statistical techniques for treating quantitative metabolic profiles are suggested.

Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry-Based In Vitro Metabolic Profiling Reveals Altered Enzyme Expressions in Eicosanoid Metabolism
BACKGROUND Eicosanoids are metabolites of arachidonic acid that are rapidly biosynthesized and degraded during inflammation, and their metabolic changes reveal altered enzyme expression following drug treatment. We developed an eicosanoid profiling method and evaluated their changes on drug treatment. METHODS Simultaneous quantitative profiling of 32 eicosanoids in liver S9 fractions obtained...
متن کاملEffects of starvation and refeeding on the excretion of urinary steroid metabolites in mice with different genetic background.
Gas chromatographic steroid metabolic profiling procedures have been applied to investigations of the effects of starvation and refeeding in mice. Urinary steroid metabolites were quantitatively followed during the starvation-refeeding experiments for mice with different genetic backgrounds. Some quantitative alterations were noted for certain congenic strains of mice. The metabolites which exh...
متن کاملGas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry-Based Metabolic Profiling of Cerebrospinal Fluid from Epileptic Dogs
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with seizures, but diagnostic approaches in veterinary clinics remain limited. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a body fluid used for diagnosis in veterinary medicine. In this study, we explored canine epilepsy diagnostic biomarkers using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based metabolic profiling of CSF and multivariate data analysis. Profiles ...
متن کاملUntargeted metabolic quantitative trait loci analyses reveal a relationship between primary metabolism and potato tuber quality.
Recent advances in -omics technologies such as transcriptomics, metabolomics, and proteomics along with genotypic profiling have permitted dissection of the genetics of complex traits represented by molecular phenotypes in nonmodel species. To identify the genetic factors underlying variation in primary metabolism in potato (Solanum tuberosum), we have profiled primary metabolite content in a d...
متن کاملProgressive peak clustering in GC-MS Metabolomic experiments applied to Leishmania parasites
MOTIVATION A common problem in the emerging field of metabolomics is the consolidation of signal lists derived from metabolic profiling of different cell/tissue/fluid states where a number of replicate experiments was collected on each state. RESULTS We describe an approach for the consolidation of peak lists based on hierarchical clustering, first within each set of replicate experiments and...
