Abstract:
Metabolomics is one of the branches of systems biology,which employs nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry technologies to detect the abnormal metabolites from a variety of body fluids. Study of various molecules and their functions may help to find the disease-related early metabolic marker clusters,understand the molecular mechanism of pathogenesis,which provides broad prospects for the early diagnosis and individualized treatment of malignant tumors.
