New paper on sleep and metabolomics

Dr Xiao published a new study on habitual sleep and the human metabolome in Metabolomics. The study found that later sleep timing was associated with higher levels of multiple metabolites in amino acid metabolism, including branched chain amino acids and their gamma-glutamyl dipeptides. The study also found widespread associations between sleep timing and numerous metabolites in lipid metabolism, including bile acids, carnitines and fatty acids. [Read Paper]
