Metabolomic research has applications in a wide variety of fields, including but not limited to breast cancer research, diabetes treatment, drug development, environmental sciences, and nutrition. To name just one example, individuals with impaired glucose tolerance have been shown to have significantly lower values of the three metabolites glycine, lysophosphatidylcholine (18:2), and acetylcarnitine than those with ordinary glucose tolerance. These metabolites can then be searched for and measured in order to help predict Type 2 diabetes in pre-diabetic individuals with impaired glucose tolerance, meaning that the study of metabolomics may be useful for identifying these patients and possibly preventing them from contracting the disease altogether (Sattler et al. 2012). ; Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein Honors Program |
