Glyoxylate, a New Marker Metabolite of Type 2 Diabetes

Figure 1

Correlation matrix with glyoxylate and precursors/products of glyoxylate metabolism. Kendall’s tau correlations between metabolite levels of glyoxylate, glycine and 4-hydroxyproline in liver (L), muscle (M), and plasma (P) and of glycolate in plasma are visualized. Blue shades represent positive correlations and red shades represent negative correlations. The more the circle is filled, the higher the absolute correlation is.
