The application of metabolomics toward pulmonary tuberculosis research
(Elsevier, 2019)
In the quest to identify novel biomarkers for pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), high-throughput systems biology approaches such as metabolomics has become increasingly widespread. Such biomarkers have not only successfully been ...
Metabolomics biomarkers for tuberculosis diagnostics: current status and future objectives
(Future Medicine, 2017)
Numerous studies have contributed to our current understanding of the complex biology of pulmonary tuberculosis and subsequently provided solutions to its control or eradication. Metabolomics, a newcomer to the Omics ...
The altered human serum metabolome induced by a marathon
(Springer, 2018)
Introduction
Endurance races have been associated with a substantial amount of adverse effects which could lead to chronic disease and long-term performance impairment. However, little is known about the holistic metabolic ...
Predicting tuberculosis treatment outcome using metabolomics
(Future Medicine, 2017)
Aim: Predicting a poor treatment outcome would offer significant benefits for patient care and for new drug development. Materials, methods & results: Urine samples from tuberculosis-positive patients with a successful and ...
Urinary metabolite markers characterizing tuberculosis treatment failure
(Springer, 2017)
Background
Considering that approximately 15% of the nine million new tuberculosis (TB) cases reported per annum are not treated successfully, new, distinctive and specific biomarkers are needed to better characterize the ...
The role of metabolomics in tuberculosis treatment research
(Future Medicine, 2017)
Despite the fact that tuberculosis (TB) is a curable disease, it still results in approximately 1.8 million deaths annually. Various inadequacies in the current TB treatment strategies are major contributors to this high ...
