Stable isotope based dynamic metabolic profiling of living organisms for characterization of metabolic diseases, drug testing and drug development

The metabolic processes involved in the formation of any glucose-based metabolite are determined. A precursor molecule is labeled with a stable carbon ( C) isotope at specific positions. The label is allowed to distribute and rearrange in the system. Metabolites are recovered and analyzed against a...

Summary:The metabolic processes involved in the formation of any glucose-based metabolite are determined. A precursor molecule is labeled with a stable carbon ( C) isotope at specific positions. The label is allowed to distribute and rearrange in the system. Metabolites are recovered and analyzed against a control system to determine metabolic pathway substrate flux caused by changes to the test system relative to the control system such as the addition of compound being tested as a potential drug.
