Emerging technologies help researchers draw mechanistic links between metabolism and epigenetic modification of DNA.

Out of 25,000 features originally detected by metabolic profiling of E. coli, fewer than 1,000 represent unique metabolites, a study finds.

Obesity-associated microbiome composition can persist after weight loss, affecting the exchange of metabolites between a mouse and its resident bugs, researchers report.

A comprehensive analysis of human urine identifies more than 3,000 metabolites. 

Obesity drives an alteration of the gut microbiome, leading to the secretion of metabolites associated with the development of liver cancer.

Researchers can identify individuals by the unique chemical signatures in their breath, suggesting that exhalations could be used for metabolomic tests.

Once the 2012 Olympics are over, the newly established drug testing lab will be turned into the world’s leading center for metabolic phenotyping.

Untargeted metabolic profiling implicates a new suite of metabolites that may be involved in nerve damage-induced pain.
