Summary
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a multi-system disease of women. Metabolomics have been used to determine if metabolites downstream of mTOR and other LAM realted pathways were present or related to disease progression in a national cohort.
Documentation
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare lung and lymphatic disease categorised by infiltration of smooth muscle type cells in the lungs and lymphatics leading to progressive respiratory impairment. The disease only effects women and is caused by a defect in one of the two proteins associated with tuberous sclerosis, tuberin and hamartin.
