We found that tyramine, a biogenic amine derived from the #microbial #metabolism of tyrosine and from #processedfoods can increase the #risk of #colorectalcancer.

Excited that our 5-year #research work @HostMicrobes group of @jiavli @ImperialMDR on the effect of tyramine in #colorectalcancer cancer can be finally shared in public. lnkd.in/dCJ86QjK

Our PhD student, Yang Bi, @DDWMeeting presented her poster on effects of TMAO on colon cancer. Thanks for support from @ERC_Research. #TMAO #ColonCancer
our recent work showed only one third of the gut bacteria in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery could grow in an anatomically normal gut. @jiavli @ImperialMDR msystems.asm.org/content/5/6…

Interesting. How about metabolic phenotyping/profiling? #metabolomics #metabonomics #metabolicphenotyping #metabolicprofiling
The terms metabo-N-omics and metabo-L-omics seem to be used interchangeably. But what’s the diff and which term is more popular? Check out my PubMed analysis #metabolomics #metabonomics #pubmed

Congratulations!
Congratulations to Orn on successfully passing the viva today! A metabolomics application in another parasitic disease - opisthorchiasis. She visited our lab for 1 year. Today her eyes were full of happy tears when she mentioned us, the support and friendship she got in that year
