Description
For my thesis I investigated an abnormal gut-derived metabolite of interest identified as 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypropionic acid (HPHPA) that may serve as a potential biomarker for autism, and help us get a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of this disorder. Currently

For my thesis I investigated an abnormal gut-derived metabolite of interest identified as 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypropionic acid (HPHPA) that may serve as a potential biomarker for autism, and help us get a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of this disorder. Currently a laboratory test for autism does not exist, posing severe consequences on individuals with autism. In order to gather research on my metabolite of interest and its connection to autism as well as disorders correlated with autism, I analyzed different pieces of scientific literature investigating HPHPA and compiled this data into a literature review.
