Systems Biology and Medicine
We create biological networks to identify drug targets and discover biomarkers for the development of the efficient treatment strategies.
Integrated Network Analysis Reveals an Association between Plasma Mannose Levels and Insulin Resistance
Systems medicine has the potential to elucidate the onset and progression of complex metabolic diseases through the use of computational approaches.
Even if you are not overweight, your mannose levels may indicate whether you’re at risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) or insulin resistance (IR), a Swedish study shows. Mannose, a simple sugar that occurs as a component of many natural polysaccharides, has been identified as a biomarker for diabetes.
Mardinoglu lab at SciLifeLab develop Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) for human cells/tissues.
