Hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) interfaced with an Orbitrap Fourier transform mass spectrometer (FT-MS) was used to carry out metabolomic profiling of the classical Drosophila mutation, rosy (ry). This gene encodes a xanthine oxidase/dehydrogenase. In addition to validating the technology by detecting the same changes in xanthine, hypoxanthine, urate and allantoin that have been reported classically, completely unsuspected changes were detected in each of the tryptophan, arginine, pyrimidine and glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways. The rosy mutation thus ramifies far more widely than previously detected.

Hawk tea has received increasing attention for its unique flavor and potential health benefits, with antioxidant function being one of its significant bioactivities. However, the metabolic profiles, potential antioxidant components, and action mechanisms of different types of hawk tea are still unclear. In this study, the chemical components of five hawk teas were determined using untargeted metabolomics.

Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 (L. reuteri DSM 17938) was one of the most widely used probiotics in humans for gastrointestinal disorders, but few studies have investigated its role in drug-induced liver injury (DILI). Here, we evaluated the efficacy of L.

Understanding a small molecule's mode of action (MoA) is essential to guide the selection, optimization and clinical development of lead compounds. In this study, we used high-throughput non-targeted metabolomics to profile changes in 2,269 putative metabolites induced by 1,520 drugs in A549 lung cancer cells. Although only 26% of the drugs inhibited cell growth, 86% caused intracellular metabolic changes, which were largely conserved in two additional cancer cell lines.

Compared to outdoor mango cultivation in the tropics, greenhouse cultivation in temperate regions is less reported due to its short history and small scale. Here, we evaluated for the first time the taste-focused quality of greenhouse-grown mangoes (Irwin) by GC-MS metabolic profiling and sensory evaluation for over three years (2021-2023). The relative standard deviation in sensory evaluation scores was approximately 15 % each year.

Object: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) have a high risk of serious infection, in particular severe pneumonia. This study aimed to investigate the transcriptional landscape, lower respiratory tract (LRT) microbiome and metabolomic profiles in the lung of RA-ILD patients with pneumonia.
Method: A total of 10 RA-ILD with pneumonia were enrolled in this study.
