How do you interpret you metabolomics data?
Understanding the meaning of changes in metabolites is not easy. Metabolism is highly connected and a change in a certain metabolite can be caused by changes in many pathways. Therefore understanding the relation between metabolites is essential. For this purpose you can either use pathways tools () or modeling tools. Pathways tools will show the connections, whereas modeling tools can also help you understand the dynamic changes. Different tools are discussed in Interpretation tools.
Metabolomics has now been for several years a method that has been developed and used by analytical chemists. Therefore, many metabolite databases (Metabolite databases) are highly chemically directed. Recently NuGO has developed a database, that contains biological information (NuGOwiki project). Input on this information is highly appreciated!
