Preeclampsia, a complication of pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure and high levels of protein in the urine ...

A breakthrough study has uncovered a hidden player in Parkinson’s disease—24-OHC, a cholesterol metabolite that fuels the ...

The Metabolite Profiling Facility (MPF) provides state-of-the-art technologies that enable both qualitative (defining all components of a metabolome) and quantitative (determining differential ...

Researchers led by Zhentao Zhang at Wuhan University, China have discovered a cholesterol metabolite that plays a critical ...

The new platform for small molecule sequencing, called “smol-seq”, employs short strands of DNA called aptamers to detect metabolites. Each aptamer is engineered to bind to a target metabolite and to ...

Researchers suggest drugs that prevent cholesterol from being converted to 24-OHC might therefore be an effective treatment for Parkinson's disease.

Each aptamer is engineered to bind to a target metabolite and to carry a unique DNA barcode. "We need to measure metabolites because of the role they play in our health, but it is very challenging ...
