Modelling the role of enzymatic pathways in the metabolism of docosahexaenoic acid by monocytes and its association with osteoarthritic pain (2024)
Journal Article
Franks, S. J., Gowler, P. R., Dunster, J. L., Turnbull, J., Gohir, S. A., Kelly, A., Valdes, A. M., King, J. R., Barrett, D. A., Chapman, V., & Preston, S. (2024). Modelling the role of enzymatic pathways in the metabolism of docosahexaenoic acid by monocytes and its association with osteoarthritic pain. Mathematical Biosciences, 374, Article 109228. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mbs.2024.109228

Chronic pain is a major cause of disability and suffering in osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Endogenous specialised pro-resolving molecules (SPMs) curtail pro-inflammatory responses. One of the SPM intermediate oxylipins, 17-hydroxydocasahexaenoic acid...

Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial (2024)
Journal Article
Kouraki, A., Nogal, A., Nocun, W., Louca, P., Vijay, A., Wong, K., Michelotti, G. A., Menni, C., & Valdes, A. M. (2024). Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial. Metabolites, 14(6), Article 311. https://doi.org/10.3390/metabo14060311

Metabolomics can uncover physiological responses to prebiotic fibre and omega-3 fatty acid supplements with known health benefits and identify response-specific metabolites. We profiled 534 stool and 799 serum metabolites in 64 healthy adults followi... Read More about Machine Learning Metabolomics Profiling of Dietary Interventions from a Six-Week Randomised Trial.

Large variability exists in people’s responses to foods. However, the efficacy of personalized dietary advice for health remains understudied. We compared a personalized dietary program (PDP) versus general advice (control) on cardiometabolic health...

Bacteriophages, gut bacteria, and microbial pathways interplay in cardiometabolic health (2024)
Journal Article
Kirk, D., Costeira, R., Visconti, A., Khan Mirzaei, M., Deng, L., Valdes, A. M., & Menni, C. (2024). Bacteriophages, gut bacteria, and microbial pathways interplay in cardiometabolic health. Cell Reports, 43(2), Article 113728. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2024.113728

Cardiometabolic diseases are leading causes of mortality in Western countries. Well-established risk factors include host genetics, lifestyle, diet, and the gut microbiome. Moreover, gut bacterial communities and their activities can be altered by ba... Read More about Bacteriophages, gut bacteria, and microbial pathways interplay in cardiometabolic health.
