Omics Core

OMICS核心的主要功能是为路易斯维尔大学酒精研究的成员提供 中心（ULARC）的专业知识，资源和设施所需的代谢组学，蛋白质组学， 对收集的生物样品进行生物信息学分析，以研究营养、肠道植物群/肠道功能障碍， 酒精引起的器官损伤和治疗干预。OMICS核心人员将协助设计 样本收集协议，将推动开发和执行新颖和强大的 用于样品分离的色谱法和用于蛋白质分析的质谱法， 肽和代谢物，目的是提供更好的理解分子的进化， 与肝功能障碍相关或参与肝功能障碍的机制。OMICS核心将确保统一性， 样品制备标准化、方法开发、仪器性能、数据收集、数据 报告和数据共享。OMICS核心致力于为整体的成功和实用性做出贡献， ULARC，并加强该机构的基础设施以及技术和学术能力， 整体OMICS核心还将促进ULARC成员在以下方面的教育和培训： 最先进的组学技术此外，OMICS核心将成为一个独立的和自我的， 支持实体使用一套已经实施的综合办法， 证明了他们在我们当前的ULARC中的成功。OMICS核心预计将提供必要的和 对所有ULARC项目提供必要的支持。

The primary function of OMICS Core is to provide members of the University of Louisville Alcohol Research Center (ULARC) with the expertise, resources, and facilities needed for metabolomic, proteomic, and bioinformatic analyses of biological samples collected to study nutrition, gut flora/intestinal dysfunction and alcohol-induced organ injury, and therapeutic interventions. OMICS Core personnel will assist with the design of sample collection protocols, will drive the development and the execution of novel and robust chromatographic methods for sample separation and mass spectrometric methods for the analysis of proteins, peptides and metabolites with a goal of providing a greater understanding of the evolution of molecular mechanisms that correlate with or participate in liver dysfunction. OMICS Core will ensure uniformity and standardization in sample preparation, method development, instrument performance, data collection, data reporting, and data sharing. OMICS Core endeavors to contribute to the overall success and utility of the ULARC and to enhance the infrastructure and the technical and academic capabilities of the institution as a whole. OMICS Core will also promote the education and training of the ULARC members with regards to the state-of-the-art omics technologies. Furthermore, OMICS Core will become an independent and self- supporting entity using a set comprehensive approaches that have been already been implemented and have demonstrated their success in our current ULARC. The OMICS Core is projected to provide necessary and essential support to all ULARC projects.
