Progress in the metabolomics study of primary Sj?gren′s syndrome / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Metabolomics is an emerging branch of system biology, which comprehensively and systematically analyzes the changes of metabolite levels in the human body after being affected by pathophysiological and other factors. In recent years, metabolomics has been widely used in the study of clinical diseases. Primary Sj?gren′s syndrome (pSS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs and systems. The pathogenesis of pSS has not been fully clarified, and early diagnosis and treatment are still difficult, and the research on its pathogenesis is still a challenge at present. Metabolomics provides new avenues for disease research, and there are more and more metabolomics studies of pSS. This review mainly introduces metabolomics and metabolomics research progress of pSS.
