Urinary metabolic fingerprinting of mice with diet-induced metabolic derangements by parallel dual secondary column-dual detection two-dimensional comprehensive gas chromatography.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1361 , 265-76, (2014)

This study investigates the potential of a parallel dual secondary column-dual detection two-dimensional comprehensive GC platform (GC×2GC-MS/FID) for metabolic profiling and fingerprinting of mouse urine. Samples were obtained from a murine model that mimics...

Proteomic and metabolomic analysis of the carotenogenic yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous using different carbon sources.

BMC Genomics 16 , 289, (2015)

Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant with increasing biotechnological interest. In Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous, a natural source of this pigment, carotenogenesis is a complex process regulated through several mechanisms, including the carbon source. X. dendr...

Selective removal of phosphate for analysis of organic acids in complex samples.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1388 , 1-8, (2015)

Accurate quantitation of compounds in samples of biological origin is often hampered by matrix interferences one of which occurs in GC-MS analysis from the presence of highly abundant phosphate. Consequently, high concentrations of phosphate need to be remove...

Substrates specialization in lipid compounds and hydrocarbons of Marinobacter genus.

Environ. Sci. Pollut. Res. Int. 22 , 15347-59, (2015)

The impact of petroleum contamination and of burrowing macrofauna on abundances of Marinobacter and denitrifiers was tested in marine sediment mesocoms after 3 months incubation. Quantification of this genus by qPCR with a new primer set showed that the main ...

Metabolomic profiles delineate potential role for sarcosine in prostate cancer progression.

Nature 457(7231) , 910-4, (2009)

Multiple, complex molecular events characterize cancer development and progression. Deciphering the molecular networks that distinguish organ-confined disease from metastatic disease may lead to the identification of critical biomarkers for cancer invasion an...

The human cerebrospinal fluid metabolome

J. Chromatogr. B. Analyt. Technol. Biomed. Life Sci. 871(2) , 164-73, (2008)

With continuing improvements in analytical technology and an increased interest in comprehensive metabolic profiling of biofluids and tissues, there is a growing need to develop comprehensive reference resources for certain clinically important biofluids, suc...

Radiation-induced metabolomic changes in sterile male nochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae).

J. Insect Sci. 14 , 166, (2014)

Radiation-induced sterile insect technique is a biologically based, environment-friendly method for the suppression or eradication of a number of insect pests. Although the basic mechanisms underlying the technology have been well studied, little is known abo...

SIRT3 deficiency impairs mitochondrial and contractile function in the heart.

Basic Res. Cardiol. 110 , 36, (2015)

Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is a mitochondrial NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase that regulates energy metabolic enzymes by reversible protein lysine acetylation in various extracardiac tissues. The role of SIRT3 in myocardial energetics and in the development of mitochondr...

Application of gas chromatography/flame ionization detector-based metabolite fingerprinting for authentication of Asian palm civet coffee (Kopi Luwak).

J. Biosci. Bioeng. 120 , 555-61, (2015)

Development of authenticity screening for Asian palm civet coffee, the world-renowned priciest coffee, was previously reported using metabolite profiling through gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). However, a major drawback of this approach is the h...

Anionic Lipids Modulate the Activity of the Aquaglyceroporin GlpF.

Biophys. J. 109 , 722-31, (2015)

The structure and composition of a biological membrane can severely influence the activity of membrane-embedded proteins. Here, we show that the E. coli aquaglyceroporin GlpF has only little activity in lipid bilayers formed from native E. coli lipids. Thus, ...
