Metabolic Disease

1. Metabolic Disease Metabolic disease is any of the diseases or disorders that disrupt normal metabolism. Metabolism is the process your body uses to get or make energy from the food you eat. Food is made up of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Chemicals in your digestive system break the food parts down into sugars and acids, your body's fuel. Your body can use this fuel right away, or it can store the energy in your body tissues, such as your liver, muscles, and body fat. Thousands of enzymes participating in numerous interdependent metabolic pathways carry out the metabolic process. Metabolic diseases affect the ability of the cell to perform critical biochemical reactions that involve the processing or transport of proteins (amino acids), carbohydrates (sugars and starches), or lipids (fatty acids). Metabolic diseases are typically hereditary, yet most persons affected by them may appear healthy for days, months, or even years. Metabolic diseases are quite rare individually, but they are relatively common when considered as a group. Specific metabolic disorders have incidences ranging from approximately 1 in 500 (or even higher in isolated populations) to fewer than 1 in 1,000,000. For some metabolic disorders, it is possible to obtain prenatal diagnostic screening. Such analysis usually is offered to families who have previously had a child with a metabolic disease or who are in a defined ethnic group. The onset of metabolic symptoms usually occurs when the body's metabolism comes under stress, for example, after prolonged fasting or during a febrile illness. Metabolic syndrome is a collection of heart disease risk factors that increase your chance of developing heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Metabolic syndrome is linked to be overweight or obese, and a lack of physical activity. Many features of the metabolic syndrome are also associated with insulin resistance, which is a key feature of type 2 diabetes. Blood sugar levels

2. are controlled by a hormone called insulin. Insulin resistance means that the body does not use insulin efficiently to lower glucose and triglyceride levels. Insulin resistance is a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors including diet, activity and perhaps interrupted sleep patterns (such as sleep apnea). Your chances of developing metabolic syndrome are greater if you have a family history of type 2 diabetes, or you've had diabetes during pregnancy (gestational diabetes). Diagnosis To assist customer for diagnosing metabolic disease, Creative Biolabs can customize a suite of IVD antibodies raised against metabolic disease (including obesity and diabetes) related biomarkers, which including but not limited to: Acetylcarnitine Apelin ANGPTL2 CyPA Glycine GDF-15 GDF-11 Gal-3 GCD59 Irisin Lysophosphatid
