Session 14: Metabolomics and human health
Updated: 2024-07-22
Metabolism is the collective term for chemical reactions within organisms and is one of the fundamental characteristics of life.
Metabolic disorders are closely associated with major diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, fatty liver, obesity, cancer and dementia. Changes in metabolites can directly reflect the physiological and pathological states of organisms, and the analysis of abnormal changes in human metabolic products, or biomarkers, is gradually becoming one of the bases for diagnosing major diseases.
Metabolomics primarily studies the content, distribution and dynamic changes of small molecule metabolic products within living organisms. It is an important technological approach at the omics level for studying the molecular mechanisms, especially the metabolic regulatory mechanisms, of diseases.
