Book Development of Metabolomics and Lipidomics Workflows for Phosphorylated Metabolites Using Ultra high performance Liquid Chromatography with Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Download or read book Development of Metabolomics and Lipidomics Workflows for Phosphorylated Metabolites Using Ultra high performance Liquid Chromatography with Tandem Mass Spectrometry written by Peng Li and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decades, system biology and multi-omics have become an emerging field in life science. With the development of analytical instruments, especially the mass spectrometry (MS), MS based metabolomics are widely utilized to understanding the metabolic status. Due to significantly different properties of lipids, lipidomics became more and more an independent research discipline. Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is the most popular analytical platform in metabolomics and lipidomics. Recent progress in bioinformatical approaches has also facilitated the bottlenecking data processing steps. Although some widely used methods were established for general metabolomics and lipidomics analysis, there are still some challenging analytes like phosphorylated metabolites/lipids, which showed compromised performance. Through highly regulated phosphorylation and dephosphorylation by enzymes, phosphorylated metabolites/lipids regulate many important cellular processes. Despite their importance, the performance of their current analytical methods is not satisfying. Generally, analysis of phosphorylated analytes by LC-MS/MS face the following challenges, including low abundance, low extraction recovery, instability, regioisomers, availability of standards, etc. In order to address these issues, we developed new methods based on phosphate methylation. Accordingly, complete workflows from sample preparation to data processing were developed and validated in biological matrix. In the 1st project, a targeted LC-MS/MS method of fatty acyl-CoAs (acyl-CoAs) with different chain lengths was established. Acyl-CoAs are central metabolic intermediates in numerous biological processes. Due to diverse fatty acyl compositions, acyl-CoAs vary greatly in polarity, which poses great challenges to their chromatographic separation. Currently, short chain acyl-CoAs are separated by HILIC or acidic RP-LC, while medium-, long- and very long-chain acyl-CoAs are analysed in basic RP-LC. Additionally, carryover in LC-MS/MS instrumentation requires extra flushing/cleaning procedures. To address these problems, we developed phosphate methylation strategy for acyl-CoAs. In the sample preparation, mixed-mode SPE was optimized to be compatible with methylation. SRM transitions in MS detection was constructed with fragmentation rule for all methylated acyl-CoAs. Uniformly 13C labelled yeast extract was used as internal standards for accurate quantification. Odd chain and stable isotope labelled analogs were used as surrogate calibrators. The LOQs were between 16.9 nM and 4.2 nM. The method was applied in cultured HeLa cells and human platelets of coronary artery disease patients. The results showed that the established method can be used to profile acyl-CoAs in biological samples. In the 2nd project, an isomer selective LC-MS/MS method of PIPx was developed. PIPx is a family of low abundant phospholipids commonly found in eukaryotic cells. Starting from phosphoinositol (PI), PIPx family consists of three lipid classes (PIP, PIP2, and PIP3) according to phosphorylation degree. There are three distinct regioisomers in each class of PIP and PIP2. As phospholipids, PIPx has two fatty acyl groups at the sn1 and sn2 position of a glycerol backbone. Currently, methods capable of regioisomer separation and fatty acyl coverage are still missing. To develop a comprehensive method, we utilized polysaccharide chiral column with data independent acquisition technique. Stable isotope labelled PIPx were characterized and used as internal standards. The established method was applied to several biological samples, including NIST SRM1950 plasma, Pichia Pastoris, and cultured HeLa cells. The results indicate this method could effectively monitor PIPx profiles in real samples and facilitate our understanding of physiological and pathological conditions. In the 3rd and 4th project, improved LC-MS/MS methods of IPx and SPx were developed. Compared to PIPx and acyl-CoAs, IPx and SPx are more polar and hydrophilic. To apply the phosphate methylation strategy, a new derivatization solvent mixture was developed and optimized. To improve extraction recovery, an extraction kit compromised of TiO2 and centrifuge filter was established. Differential isotope labelling methylation was utilized to generate stable isotope labelled analogs in both projects (internal standards in IPx project, surrogate calibrators in SPx project). Cholesterol-ether bonded RP column was used to separate IPx regioisomers, especially I(1,4,5)P3. Porous graphite carbon column was used to separate SPx in glycolysis pathway. After validation in biological matrix, the methods were applied in different biological samples, including NIST SRM1950 plasma, cultured HeLa cells, and human platelets.

Book High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry

Download or read book High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry written by William Kerr and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), also known as high-pressure liquid chromatography, is an advanced type of LC. HPLC is amenable to a wide range of applications, such as pharmaceuticals and food analysis. It is especially useful for low or non-volatile organic compounds, which cannot be handled with gas chromatography. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is an analytical chemistry technique that combines the physical separation capabilities of liquid chromatography (or HPLC) with the mass analysis capabilities of mass spectrometry (MS). Coupled chromatography - MS systems are popular in chemical analysis because the individual capabilities of each technique are enhanced synergistically. While liquid chromatography separates mixtures with multiple components, mass spectrometry provides structural identity of the individual components with high molecular specificity and detection sensitivity. This tandem technique can be used to analyze biochemical, organic, and inorganic compounds commonly found in complex samples of environmental and biological origin. Therefore, LC-MS may be applied in a wide range of sectors including biotechnology, environment monitoring, food processing, and pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and cosmetic industries. Mass spectrometry (MS) is an analytical technique that measures the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of charged particles (ions). Although there are many different kinds of mass spectrometers, all of them make use of electric or magnetic fields to manipulate the motion of ions produced from an analyze of interest and determine their m/z. The book has primarily been designed for analysts who are unfamiliar with this technique or have limited training and experience in this or have constraints in finding a suitable HPLC method. The book presents a comprehensive compilation of reviews, opinions and applications of the use of Mass Spectrometry to analyze biomolecules.

Book Application of Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry Techniques to the Study of Two Biological Systems

Download or read book Application of Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry Techniques to the Study of Two Biological Systems written by Mary Elizabeth Eisenhauer and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quorum sensing is a type of bacterial cell-cell communication that uses diffusible signaling molecules to allow the regulation of gene expression based on cell density. The two types of signaling molecules discussed here are autoinducer-2 (AI-2) and a class of signaling molecules of the N-acylhomoserine lactone type (AHL) also known as autoinducer-1 (AI-1). The biosynthesis of both of these molecules has origins in a metabolic pathway. Although undisputed in some cases, the role of AI-2 and AHLs in bacterial systems has come into question. Here, the functionalities of these molecules were investigated by utilizing isotope-labeled versions of both AI-2 and AHLs in conjunction with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry in order to quantify the natural abundance of these molecules in various bacterial cultures. Presented in this thesis are, a synthesis for doubly-deuterated AHLs as well as chromatographic and spectrometric methods for the detection and quantitation of these molecules. Additionally, a series of relevant biological studies which effectively and prolifically utilize these synthetic and analytical techniques are presented here. The selective destruction of beta-cell mass in the Langerhans of the pancreas is known to cause Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Currently, many key aspects of this autoimmune disease remain unclear, including the exact mechanism of beta-cell death. In a collaborative project with Dr. J. Jason Collier, we sought to test the hypothesis that different mechanisms of cell death will present discrete phenotypic profiles which can be distinguished by a specific metabolic response in response to the appropriate stimuli. A second project presented in this thesis is the development and implementation of a method to profile the metabolic signatures of two types of pancreatic beta-cell death using tandem mass spectrometry techniques. Using 832/13 rat insulinoma cells, the metabolite pools of cells exposed to either pro-inflammatory cytokines or known apoptosis inducers, such as camptothecin, were analyzed. In this investigation, it was found that this method was effective in defining reproducible metabolic differences in each sample tested. Taken together with complementary methods used in the Collier lab, the results collectively demonstrate that pancreatic beta-cells undergo apoptosis in response to camptothecin, but not pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Book Personalized Medicine in Oncology

Download or read book Personalized Medicine in Oncology written by Ari VanderWalde and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowhere is the explosion in comprehensive genomic testing more evident than in oncology. Multiple consensus guidelines now recommend molecular testing as the standard of care for most metastatic tumors. To aid in the advancement of this rapidly changing field, we intend this Special Issue of JPM to focus on technical developments in the genomic profiling of cancer, detail promising somatic alterations that either are, or have a high likelihood of being, relevant in the near future, and to address issues related to the pricing and value of these tests.The last few years have seen the cost of molecular testing decrease by orders of magnitude. In 2018, we saw the first “site-agnostic” drug approvals in cancer (for microsatellite unstable cancer (PD-1 inhibitors) and NTRK-fusions (TRK inhibitors)). Research on targetable mutations, determination of genetic “signatures” that can use multiple individual genes/pathways, development of targeted therapy, and insight into the value of new technology remains at the cutting edge of research in this field. We are soliciting papers that present new technologies to assess predictive biomarkers in cancer, original research (pre-clinical or clinical) that demonstrates promise for particular targeted therapies in cancer, and articles that explore the clinical and financial impacts of this paradigmatic shift in cancer diagnostics and treatment.
