Metabolic profiling reveals disturbances in fatty acid & lipid metabolism in ME/CFS

Research abstract: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) remains a continuum spectrum disease without biomarkers or simple objective tests, and therefore relies on a diagnosis from a set of symptoms to link the assortment of brain and body disorders to ME/CFS. … Continue reading

Metabolic profiling indicates impaired pyruvate dehydrogenase function in ME/CFS

Research abstract: Myalgic encephalopathy/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating disease of unknown etiology, with hallmark symptoms including postexertional malaise and poor recovery. Metabolic dysfunction is a plausible contributing factor. We hypothesized that changes in serum amino acids may disclose … Continue reading

Dysfunctional energy metabolism and oxidative stress pathways in CFS

Research abstract: Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating long-term multisystem disorder with a central and inexplicably persistent fatigue symptom that is unable to be relieved by rest. Energy metabolism and oxidative stress have been recent focal points of … Continue reading
