Metabolic Effects of Chemical Interactions in Toxicity
Abstract
This pilot study tests the feasibility of using GSH redox state and high resolution proton NMR spectroscopy (1H-NMR) to detect metabolic changes due to acetominophen and sulfur amino acid deficiency. Our central hypothesis is that the a 2-day sulfur amino acid deficiency will alter acetominophen metabolism, acetominophen will affect sulfur amino acid homeostasis, and the treatments together will alter the global metabolic profile, as measured by 1H-NMR spectroscopy.
Conditions: Oxidative Stress.
Primary outcome: individual thiol and disulfide components; GSH/GSSG and Cys/CySS redox state; urinary output of taurine and sulfate.
Enrollment: 15 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 15 participants or records.
