Characterisation of Aberrant Metabolic Pathways in Hepatoblastoma Using Liquid Chromatography and Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) (2023)
Journal Article
Whitby, A., Pabla, P., Shastri, B., Amugi, L., Del Río-Álvarez, Á., Kim, D., …Dandapani, M. (2023). Characterisation of Aberrant Metabolic Pathways in Hepatoblastoma Using Liquid Chromatography and Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Cancers, 15(21), Article 5182. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers15215182

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a rare childhood tumour with an evolving molecular landscape. We present the first comprehensive metabolomic analysis using untargeted and targeted liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (LC-M...

Acai Berry (Euterpe sp.) Extracts Are Neuroprotective against L-Glutamate-Induced Toxicity by Limiting Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Cellular Redox Stress (2023)
Journal Article
ALNasser, M. N., AlSaadi, A. M., Whitby, A., Kim, D. H., Mellor, I. R., & Carter, W. G. (2023). Acai Berry (Euterpe sp.) Extracts Are Neuroprotective against L-Glutamate-Induced Toxicity by Limiting Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Cellular Redox Stress. Life, 13(4), Article 1019. https://doi.org/10.3390/life13041019

Aberrant accumulation of the neurotransmitter L-glutamate (L-Glu) has been implicated as a mechanism of neurodegeneration, and the release of L-Glu after stroke onset leads to a toxicity cascade that results in neuronal death. The acai berry (Euterpe... Read More about Acai Berry (Euterpe sp.) Extracts Are Neuroprotective against L-Glutamate-Induced Toxicity by Limiting Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Cellular Redox Stress.

EPEN-21. Developing a sensitive method for detection of minimal residual disease in ependymoma using metabolomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (2022)
Journal Article
Woodward, A., Amugi, L., Patel, K., Kilpatrick, C., Kim, D., & Dandapani, M. (2022). EPEN-21. Developing a sensitive method for detection of minimal residual disease in ependymoma using metabolomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid. Neuro-Oncology, 24(Supplement 1), i43-i43. https://doi.org/10.1093/neuonc/noac079.719

Ependymoma (EPN) is the second most common malignant paediatric brain tumour with poor survival and significant neuro-cognitive impairment from current treatments (surgery and radiotherapy). Relapse occurs in 50% of patients within 2 years, despite n... Read More about EPEN-21.

Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues (2021)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Woodward, A., Pandele, A., Abdelrazig, S., Ortori, C., Khan, I., …Kim, D. (2021). Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues. Metabolites, 11(4), Article 240. https://doi.org/10.3390/metabo11040240

The integration of untargeted metabolomics and transcriptomics from the same population of cells or tissue enhances the confidence in the identified metabolic pathways and understanding of the enzyme–metabolite relationship. Here, we optimised a simu... Read More about Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues.
