Overview

Metabolism is a fundamental process for sustaining life activity and involves biochemical reactions that convert carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins into energy. This process plays a key role in metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Protheragen provides high-purity products of metabolism-related compounds. These products are widely used in the fields of drug screening, cell induction, and mechanism research, providing strong support for your research.

Title: Association between metabolite profiles, metabolic syndrome, and obesity status

Journal: Nutrients, 2016

DOI: https://doi.org/10.3390/nu8060324

Summary: The authors used metabolomic analysis to reveal metabolic differences between normal weight (NW) and overweight/obese (Ov/Ob) individuals and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of obesity-related metabolic abnormalities. Obesity and metabolic syndrome patients have been found to have significantly abnormal levels of metabolites such as long-chain glycerophospholipids, and these changes are strongly associated with lipid metabolism disorders and decreased insulin sensitivity. Levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and acylcarnitines correlate with healthy metabolic status, and their decline may indicate impaired metabolic function.
