New computer model predicts gut metabolites to better understand gastrointestinal disease

Thursday, November 20, 2014 - 15:01 in Health & Medicine

The first research to use computational modeling to predict and identify the metabolic products of gastrointestinal (GI) tract microorganisms has been published by researchers. Understanding these metabolic products, or metabolites, could influence how clinicians diagnose and treat GI diseases, as well as many other metabolic and neurological diseases increasingly associated with compromised GI function.
