PERSONALIZED METABOLOMIC PROFILING OF SPECIALIZED PRO-RESOLVING MEDIATORS

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method of providing a metabololipidomic profile and SPM signature on the progress of the innate host defense response following blood clotting. The method can include the step of taking one or more measurements in a patient's blood sample, wherein the sample is obtained during the time-course of clotting or coagulation or following clotting or coagulation, of pro-thrombotic and pro-inflammatory mediators (eicosanoids) and specialized pro-resolving mediators SPMs. From these measurements, a personalized metabololipidomic profile can be obtained. By comparing the measurement to that taken from normal or reference blood, a comparison profile can be developed. The profile comparison profile can then be used to make a medical or therapeutic decision.
