The Human Metabolome Database (HMDB)
The clinical data includes information on >10,000 metabolite-
Four additional databases, DrugBank,[6][7][8] T3DB,[9] SMPDB [10] and FooDB are also part of the HMDB suite of databases. DrugBank contains equivalent information on ~1,600 drug and drug metabolites, T3DB contains information on 3,100 common toxins and environmental pollutants, SMPDB contains pathway diagrams for 700 human metabolic and disease pathways, while FooDB contains equivalent information on ~28,000 food components and food additives.
Version history
The first version of HMDB was released on January 1, 2007,[1] followed by two subsequent versions on January 1, 2009 (version 2.0),[2] August 1, 2009 (version 2.5), September 18, 2012 (version 3.0)[4] and Jan. 1, 2013 (version 3.5),[11] 2017 (version 4.0).[12], 2022 (version 5.0).[11] Details for each of the major HMDB versions (up to version 5.0) is provided in Table 1.
