  1. 1. Metabolomics and proteomics studies of brain tumors : a chemometric bioinformatics approach

    Author : Lina Mörén; Henrik Antti; Anders Malmendal; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glioblastoma; glioma; meningioma; metabolomics; proteomics; mass-spectrometry; biologisk kemi; biological chemistry;

    Abstract : The WHO classification of brain tumors is based on histological features and the aggressiveness of the tumor is classified from grade I to IV, where grade IV is the most aggressive. Today, the correlation between prognosis and tumor grade is the most important component in tumor classification. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular mechanisms in obesity-associated metabolic disease

    Author : Louise Olofsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : obesity; metabolic syndrome; cholesterol; resting metabolic rate; insulin resistance; serum amyloid A; S100 calcium binding protein A1; Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein; CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha;

    Abstract : Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Subjects with obesity are at risk of developing several serious conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke. READ MORE

  3. 3. On metabolic networks and multi-omics integration

    Author : Rasmus Ågren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; succinate; genome-scale metabolic model; metabolic engineering; systems biology; penicillin; NASH; flux balance analysis; metabolism; cancer; reconstruction;

    Abstract : Cellular metabolism is a highly complex chemical system, involving thousands of interacting metabolites and reactions. The traditional approach to understanding metabolism has been that of reductionism; by isolating and carefully measuring the involved components, the goal has been to understand the whole as the sum of its parts.
