Liver Metabolic Alterations and Changes in Host Intercompartmental Metabolic Correlation during Progression of Malaria

Figure 4

The liver and serum correlation profile depicted by MPCA PC2 loadings plot. The aliphatic region of the spectra is shown. (a–c) are females and (d–f) are the males. In each set, the left figure is the liver profile and the right one is the serum profile. The -axis in each panel represents the loading axis. The compartmental loadings are obtained by cropping the model loading. (a/d): control, (b/e): early infection, and (c/f): late infection. Symbols: 1: branched chain amino acids, 2: choline, 3: glucose, 4: lactate, 5: lysine, 6: alanine, 7: trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), 8: glycine, 9: dimethylamine, and u: unidentified peak.
