Identification of potential salivary biomarkers for Sj ögren’s syndrome with an untargeted metabolomic approach
This study aims to identify metabolites that could be used as biomarkers for SS.MethodsUsing the software called XCMS online, the salivary metabolic profiles obtained with liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry for 18 female SS patients were compared to those obtained for 22 age-matched female healthy controls.Results and conclusionA total of 91 metabolites showed differential expression in SS patients. A putative identification was proposed with the use of a database for 37 of these metabolites and, of these, 16 identifications were confirmed. Given the identified metabolites, some important me...

Light effects on Lasiodiplodia theobromae metabolome cultured in vitro
AbstractIntroductionThe present work identified and compared intracellular metabolites and metabolic networks in mycelial cultures ofLasiodiplodia theobromae grown under 12 natural light and 24 hours ’ dark using a1 H NMR-based metabolomics approach.Materials and methods Fungal cultures were grown in potato dextrose media, and metabolites were extracted by sonication with sodium phosphate-buffered saline (pH  = 6.0, 10% D2O, 0.1 mM TSP) from mycelium samples collected every week over four weeks.ResultsMultivariate analyses revealed that the light exposure group showed a positive correlation within beta-hydroxybutyra...
