The association of fecal microbiota & fecal, blood serum & urine metabolites in ME/CFS

Posted on 01/13/2017 by wames

Research abstract: INTRODUCTION: The human gut microbiota has the ability to modulate host metabolism. Metabolic profiling of the microbiota and the host biofluids may determine associations significant of a host–microbe relationship. Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a long-term disorder … Continue reading →

Oxidative phosphorylation & lactic acid excretion are impaired in severe ME

Posted on 10/02/2015 by wames

Case study abstract: Background: In this study the muscle bioenergetic function in response to exercise in severe ME was explored to see if the underlying metabolic problem in ME, responsible for the severe difficulties with trivial exercise, and the severe loss … Continue reading →

Dysfunctional energy metabolism and oxidative stress pathways in CFS

Posted on 06/11/2015 by wames

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 →

Assessment of energy metabolism by Serum Fluorescence Emission

Posted on 04/17/2012 by wames

Researchers from Witchita Kansas examined the metabolic component  of CFS, by determined serum NAD(P)H levels in 44 CFS patients and 30 healthy control  subjects by measuring serum fluorescence emission at 450 nm. It was directly correlated with serum coenzyme Q10 … Continue reading →
