Metabolic networks are affected by diabetes and obesity, their comorbidities and therapies. We study the underlying molecular mechanisms for a better understanding of the dysregulation of energy intake, energy expenditure, and energy storage via new and improved therapeutic approaches.
We conduct untargeted metabolomics studies and targeted quantification of metabolites to investigate metabolic processes.
We analyze and differentiate endogenous or therapeutic peptides and interfering products in (pre-)clinical study samples.
We determine metabolite turn-over rates, body water content, total energy expenditure as well as trace activity of metabolic pathways.
