Metabolism is highly variable between individuals, even though the underlying key processes follow the same physicochemical laws and biological principles. Metabolic phenotypes are influenced by different genetic and environmental factors. In this work I have analyzed metabolite profiles on different biological scales, ranging from population data over physiological challenging results to in vitro experiments. In a network-based approach, I combined experimental data with established biochemical pathway knowledge for an improved analysis of genetic and nutritional effects on human metabolism.
