Potential biomarkers that distinguish prostate cancer samples were successfully identified through metabolomics analysis （Sreekumar et al., 2009）. Metabolome quantitative trait loci （mQTL） and genome-wide association studies coupled with metabolomics analysis （mGWAS） also became efficient tools to decipher the genetic basis of complex metabolic traits in large populations （Gong et al., 2013; Chen et al., 2014）.展开更多
