Untargeted metabolomic, and proteomic analysis identifies metabolic biomarkers and pathway alterations in individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome
ConclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first report on plasma metabolic and proteomic profiling and on the identification of unique biomarkers in 22q11.2DS. These findings may suggest the potential role of the identified metabolites and proteins as biomarkers for the onset of comorbid conditions in 22q11.2DS. Ultimately, the altered protein pathways in 22q11.2DS may provide insights of the biological mechanisms underlying the neurodevelopmental phenotype and may provide missing molecular outcome measures in future clinical trials to assess early-diagnosis treatment and the efficacy of response to targeted treatment.

Identification of glucose-independent and reversible metabolic pathways associated with anti-proliferative effect of metformin in liver cancer cells
ConclusionsThe derangement of multiple glucose-independent metabolic pathways, which are often upregulated in therapy-resistant cancer, and concomitantcMyc downregulation coordinately contribute to the anti-proliferative effect of metformin in liver cancer cells. These are reversible and may influence its therapeutic utility. (Source: Metabolomics)

Metabolomics approach for phenolic compounds profiling of soursop (Annona muricata L.) fruit during postharvest storage
ConclusionsHere, we show that the stage of ripening has a significant effect on the phenolic content, highlighting the point of cut (D0) and the onset of senescence (D5). The findings of this study provide new insights into the soursop fruit quality and may contribute to the identification of metabolic markers for its storage. (Source: Metabolomics)
