A comparison of the amino acid profile between patients with glioma and the control group allowed for the identification of differences in both endogenous amino acids (SER, ARG, CIT, ASN, GLY, GABA, SAR, ABA, ORN, ASP) and exogenous amino acids (THR, MET, LYS, HIS, AAA, LEU, PHE, ILE, CC, TYR). Here, CXCR1 is linked to glioma.
