Abstract
Elastase, collagenase, hyaluronidase and tyrosinase, are very interesting enzymes due to their direct implication in skin aging and as therapeutic hits. Different techniques can be used to study these enzymes and to evaluate the influence of effectors on their kinetics. Nowadays, analytical techniques have become frequently used tools for miniaturizing enzyme assays. The main intention of this article is to review chromatographic and electrophoretic tools that study the four enzymes above mentioned. More specifically, the use of high-performance liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis and their derivative techniques for monitoring these enzymes will be investigated. The advantages and limitations of these assays will also be discussed. The original use of microscale thermophoresis and thin layer chromatography in this domain will also be covered.

Abstract
Proteoglycans (PGs) represent a class of heavily glycosylated proteins distributed in the extracellular matrix, connective tissues, and on the surface of many cell types where, as functional molecules, regulate important biological processes. Structurally, PGs consist of a core protein linked to glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains, which basically determine the properties and activities of PGs. In view of the structural complexity of GAGs and the existing correlation between this structure and PG functions, systematic efforts are invested into development of analytical methods for GAG characterization. Although less popular and of higher technical difficulty than liquid-based chromatographic methods, CE coupled with ESI MS contributed lately an important progress to glycosaminoglycomics field. In this review article, the most significant CE ESI MS and MS/MS applications in GAG research are highlighted and critically assessed. The advantages and the limitations of each concept as well as the possible further methodological refinements are also concisely discussed. Finally, the review presents the perspectives of CE ESI MS in GAG analysis along with the objectives, which still need to be reached in the near future.

Abstract
This chapter reports an overview of the recent advances in the analysis of mono- and oligosaccharides by capillary electrophoresis (CE); furthermore, relevant reviews and research articles recently published in the field are tabulated. Additionally, pretreatments and procedures applied to uncharged and acidic carbohydrates (i.e., monosaccharides and lower oligosaccharides carrying carboxylate, sulfate, or phosphate groups) are described.Representative examples of such procedures are reported in detail, upon describing robust methodologies for the study of (1) neutral oligosaccharides derivatized by reductive amination and by formation of glycosylamines; (2) sialic acid derivatized with 2-aminoacridone, released from human serum immunoglobulin G; (3) anomeric couples of neutral glycosides separated using borate-based buffers; (4) unsaturated, underivatized oligosaccharides from lyase-treated alginate.

Abstract
The elucidation of the structure of glycosaminoglycan has proven to be challenging for analytical chemists. Molecules of glycosaminoglycan have a high negative charge and are polydisperse and microheterogeneous, thus requiring the application of multiple analytical techniques and methods. Heparin and heparan sulfate are the most structurally complex of the glycosaminoglycans and are widely distributed in nature. They play critical roles in physiological and pathophysiological processes through their interaction with heparin-binding proteins. Moreover, heparin and low-molecular weight heparin are currently used as pharmaceutical drugs to control blood coagulation. In 2008, the health crisis resulting from the contamination of pharmaceutical heparin led to considerable attention regarding their analysis and structural characterization. Modern analytical techniques, including high-performance liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, played critical roles in this effort. A successful combination of separation and spectral techniques will clearly provide a critical advantage in the future analysis of heparin and heparan sulfate. This review focuses on recent efforts to develop hyphenated techniques for the analysis of heparin and heparan sulfate.

Abstract
The glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are linear polysaccharides expressed on animal cell surfaces and in extracellular matrices. Their biosynthesis is under complex control and confers a domain structure that is essential to their ability to bind to protein partners. Key to understanding the functions of GAGs are methods to determine accurately and rapidly patterns of sulfation, acetylation and uronic acid epimerization that correlate with protein binding or other biological activities. Mass spectrometry (MS) is particularly suitable for the analysis of GAGs for biomedical purposes. Using modern ionization techniques it is possible to accurately determine molecular weights of GAG oligosaccharides and their distributions within a mixture. Methods for direct interfacing with liquid chromatography have been developed to permit online mass spectrometric analysis of GAGs. New tandem mass spectrometric methods for fine structure determination of GAGs are emerging. This review summarizes MS-based approaches for analysis of GAGs, including tissue extraction and chromatographic methods compatible with LC/MS and tandem MS.

Abstract
Carbohydrates exhibit many physiologically and pharmacologically important activities, yet their complicated structure and sequence pose major analytical challenges. Although their structural complexity makes analysis of carbohydrate difficult, mass spectrometry (MS) with high sensitivity, resolution and accuracy has become a vital tool in many applications related to analysis of carbohydrates or oligosaccharides. This application is essentially based on soft ionization technique which facilitates the ionization and vaporization of large, polar and thermally labile biomolecules. Electrospray-ionization (ESI), one of the soft ionization technique, tandem MS has been used in the sequencing of peptides, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and more recently carbohydrates. The development of the ESI and tandem MS has begun to make carbohydrate analysis more routine. This review will focus on the application of the ESI tandem MS for the sequence analysis of native oligosaccharides, including neutral saccharides with multiple linkages, and the uronic acid polymers, alginate and glycosaminoglycans structures containing epimers.

Abstract
The glycosaminoglycan (GAG) family of polysaccharides includes the unsulfated hyaluronan and the sulfated heparin, heparan sulfate, keratan sulfate, and chondroitin/dermatan sulfate. GAGs are biosynthesized by a series of enzymes, the activities of which are controlled by complex factors. Animal cells alter their responses to different growth conditions by changing the structures of GAGs expressed on their cell surfaces and in extracellular matrices. Because this variation is a means whereby the functions of the limited number of protein gene products in animal genomes is elaborated, the phenotypic and functional assessment of GAG structures expressed spatially and temporally is an important goal in glycomics. On-line mass spectrometric separations are essential for successful determination of expression patterns for the GAG compound classes due to their inherent complexity and heterogeneity. Options include size exclusion, anion exchange, reversed phase, reversed phase ion pairing, hydrophilic interaction, and graphitized carbon chromatographic modes and capillary electrophoresis. This review summarizes the application of these approaches to on-line MS analysis of the GAG classes.

Abstract
Complex natural polysaccharides, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), are a class of ubiquitous macromolecules that exhibit a wide range of biological functions and participate and regulate multiple cellular events and (patho)physiological processes. They are generally present either as free chains (hyaluronic acid and bacterial acidic polysaccharides) or as side chains of proteoglycans (PGs; chondroitin/dermatan sulfate, heparin/heparan sulfate, and keratan sulfate) and are most often found in cell membranes and in the extracellular matrix. The recent emergence of modern analytical tools for their study has produced a virtual explosion in the field of glycomics. CE, due to its high resolving power and sensitivity, has been useful in the analysis of intact GAGs and GAG-derived oligosaccharides and disaccharides affording concentration and structural characterization data essential for understanding the biological functions of GAGs. In this review, novel off-line and on-line CE-MS and MS/MS methods for screening of GAG-derived oligosaccharides and disaccharides will be discussed.

Abstract
This chapter illustrates the usefulness of capillary electrophoresis (CE) for the analysis of sugar acids, that is, monosaccharides and lower oligosaccharides carrying carboxylate, sulphate or phosphate groups. In order to provide a general description of the main results and challenges in the field, some relevant applications and reviews on CE of such saccharidic compounds are tabulated. Furthermore, some detailed experimental procedures are shown, regarding the CE analysis of sugar acids released upon hydrolysis of acidic polysaccharides and of glycans linked to glycoproteins. In particular, the protocols will deal with the following compounds: (i) unsaturated, underivatized oligosaccharides from lyase-treated alginate; (ii) oligosaccharides derivatized with 4-aminobenzonitrile, arising from chemical hydrolysis of alginate; (iii) sialic acid derivatized with 2-aminoacridone, released from human serum immunoglobulin G.

Abstract
Isobaric oligosaccharides enzymatically prepared from hyaluronic acid (HA) and N-acetylheparosan (NAH), were distinguished using tandem mass spectrometry. The only difference between the two series of oligosaccharides was the linkage pattern (in HA 1-->3 and in NAH 1-->4) between glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues. Tandem mass spectrometry afforded spectra in which glycosidic cleavage fragment ions were observed for both HA and NAH oligosaccharides. Cross-ring cleavage ions 0,2An and 0,2An-h (n is even number) were observed only in GlcNAc residues of NAH oligosaccharides. One exception was an 0,2A2 ion fragment observed for the disaccharide from HA. These cross-ring cleavage fragment ions are useful to definitively distinguish HA and NAH oligosaccharides.

Abstract
Chondroitin C lyase was demonstrated to be unable to act on fructosylated sequences inside a partially fructosylated polysaccharide having the chondroitin backbone structure, the Escherichia coli K4 polymer, using different analytical approaches. Chondroitin C lyase produced various unsaturated oligosaccharides by acting on an approximately 27%-fructosylated K4 polymer. The online HPLC-ESI-MS approach showed the disaccharide nature of the main species produced by chondroitinase C as DeltaHexA-GalNAc. Furthermore, the non-digested sequences inside the K4 polymer were demonstrated to be oligosaccharides bearing a fructose for each glucuronic acid unit. In fact, unsaturated fully fructosylated oligomers, from tetrasaccharide to decasaccharide (DeltaHexA(Fru)-GalNAc-[GlcA(Fru)-GalNAc](n) with n between 1 and 4), at decreasing percentages, were produced by the enzyme. These results clearly indicate that chondroitinase C cleaved the innermost glucuronic acid-N-acetylgalactosamine linkage without affecting the 1,4 glycosidic linkage between fructosylated glucuronic acid and N-acetylgalactosamine residues, confirming that the 3-O-fructosylation of the GlcA residue renders the polysaccharide resistant to the enzyme action. This novel specific activity of chondroitinase C was also useful for the production of discrete microgram amounts of fully fructosylated oligomers, from 4- to 10-mers, from E. coli K4 for possible further studies and applications.

Capillary electrophoresis (CE)-mass spectrometry (MS), as an analytical platform, has made significant contributions in advancing metabolomics research, if still limited up to this time. This review, covering reports published between 1998 and 2006, describes how CE-MS has been used thus far in this field, with the majority of the works dealing with targeted metabolite analyses and only a small fraction using it in the comprehensive context. It also discusses how some of the key features of CE-MS were exploited in selected metabolomic applications.

Abstract
The separation and characterization of oligosaccharides obtained by hyaluronidase [E.C. 3.2.1.35] digestion of Escherichia coli K4 polysaccharide using online high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI-MS) are presented. Complete identification and structural information for oligosaccharides containing 2-24 monomers (from 2- to 24-mers) were obtained. In particular, smaller K4 species, from 2-mers to 4-mers, exhibited mainly [M-H](-1) anions, whereas the 6- to 8-mers existed predominantly at the charge state of -2. The K4 oligomers from 10-mers to 14-mers were mainly represented by [M-3H](-3) anions while species from 16- to 20-mers were characterized by a charge state of -4. K4 oligosaccharides from 22- to 24-mers existed as [M-4H](-4) and [M-5H](-5) anions and, for this latter species, ions having a charge state of -6 appeared. For smaller K4 species, in particular from 6-mers to 10-mers, ESI-MS revealed anions related to the loss of one monosaccharide unit from the oligomers due to apparent collisional activation and ion source fragmentation. However, no odd-numbered anions were produced for K4 2/4-mer species or for oligosaccharides greater than 12-mers, while for K4 species 8/10-mer, ESI-MS revealed odd-numbered anions generally in low relative abundance making the interpretation of the spectra easier. The ESI-MS spectra of oligosaccharides separated by online HPLC were applied to the evaluation of the K4 polymerization process, confirming that the addition of fructose units is not critical for chain elongation as variously fructosylated oligomer species were detected directly on the K4 carbohydrate backbone.

Abstract
The increasing interest for carbohydrates as holder of essential bioinformations has boosted their full characterization through analytical techniques. The intent of this review is to summarize the recent trends regarding on-line and off-line CE-MS coupling for carbohydrate analysis. A statistical survey on the articles that use derivatizing agents as well as on the analyzer and type of instrument coupling (i.e. on- or off-line) is depicted. From a general overview it can be concluded that, whereas derivatization might be useful for the detection of neutral carbohydrates improving separation selectivity with volatile buffers and increasing sensitivity of the MS detection, relatively few works with derivatized carbohydrates were found; this was noticed in particular for glycosides and saccharides carrying ionizable groups, which are normally analyzed without any chemical modification. The most applied coupling is the on-line sheath-liquid interface; for on-line applications, ESI is the sole source used, whilst the most common analyzer is the IT. MS(n) is often exploited, as fragmentation increases the achieved structural information. CE-MS turned out to be mainly used for the analysis of carbohydrates in drug development (i.e. study of oligosaccharides from pathogens, carbohydrate-based drugs and drug metabolites), in nutrition and for characterization of glycans from glycoproteins. The reader will find elucidating tables regarding these recent CE-MS applications, including the main information on the analysis conditions. Comments are meant to help the immediate focus on the usefulness of the analytical technique and predict the difficulties found during analysis and, in case, their overcoming.

Abstract
Recently, a useful procedure for the preparation of both even- and odd-numbered series of N-acetylheparosan (NAH) oligosaccharides was established. The present report describes findings when these NAH oligosaccharides were subjected to comparative mass spectrometry (MS)/MS fragmentation analysis by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-LIFT-time-of-flight (TOF)/TOF-MS/MS, and electrospray ionization (ESI) collision-induced dissociation (CID) MS/MS. The resultant fragment ions were systematically assigned to elucidate fragmentation characteristics. In the MALDI-LIFT-MS/MS experiments, all the NAH oligosaccharides underwent unique glycosidic cleavages that included B-Y ion cleavages (nomenclature system of Domon and Costello, Glycoconjugate J. 1988; 5: 397) at the C-1 side, and C-Z ion cleavages at the C-4 side, with respect to glucuronic acid (GlcA). In addition, (0,2)A and/or (0,2)X cross-ring cleavages were observed for relatively small oligosaccharides. The former observation clearly reflects the occurrence of a GlcA-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) alternating structure of NAH, while the latter feature implies the occurrence of the -beta-1-4-glucuronide linkage. Extensive glycosidic cleavages were also observed in the ESI-CID-MS/MS fragmentation, though cleavage specificity was less evident than in the case of MALDI-LIFT-TOF/TOF-MS/MS. The information obtained in this study should be valuable for understanding both biosynthetic and degradation processes of NAH and its derivatives including heparin and heparan sulfate, as well as artificially modified NAH oligosaccharides.

Abstract
The major developments and applications related to CE-MS over the last two years (2003-2004) and most of the reviews and applications found in the ISI Web of Science and publisher data bases are presented in a tabulated way. This article complements our previous review "Capillary electrophoresis - mass spectrometry: 15 years of developments and applications", Electrophoresis, 2003, 24, 3837-3867 for the last two years 2003-2004. All cited articles were analyzed in a way to illustrate (i) in which journals CE-MS-related papers were mostly found over the last decades and (ii) which commercial CE-, MS-instrumentations or CE-MS combinations were mostly used in the European, Asian, and American continent. Additionally, like it was done in our last review, the reader will rapidly find applications classified as forensics, environment, bioanalytics, pharmaceutics, and metabolites.

Abstract
In the post-genomic era, increasing efforts have been made to describe the relationship between the genome and the phenotype in cells and organisms. It has become clear that even a complete understanding of the state of the genes, messages, and proteins in a living system does not reveal its phenotype. Therefore, researchers have started to study the metabolome (or the metabolic complement of functional genomics). Within this context, mass spectrometry (MS) has increasingly occupied a central position in the methodologies developed for determination of the metabolic state. This review is mainly focused on the status of MS in the metabolome field, trying to direct the reader to the main approaches for analysis of metabolites, reviewing basic methodologies in sample preparation, and the most recent MS techniques introduced. Apart from the description of the different methods, this review will try to state a general comparison between the several different techniques that involve MS and metabolite analysis, and will highlight their limitations and preferred applicability.

Abstract
An analytical approach using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry for the structural characterization and assessment of the degree of polymerization of cell wall pectin-derived oligosaccharides (PDOs) in three regions of Botrytis cinerea-infected tomato fruit tissue is described. The PDOs were isolated from lesion centers (extensively macerated tissue), the area just beyond visible lesion margins, and healthy and intact tissue of an inoculated fruit, sampled at a distance from developing lesions. PDO mixtures were directly analyzed by mass spectrometry without chromatographic separation, after minimum cleanup by membrane drop dialysis. The structures identified implied the action of three different pathogen pectin-modifying enzymes. Modifications such as methyl esterification were identified by determination of exact PDO molecular masses and tandem mass spectrometry via collision-induced dissociation. We have identified four PDO series that were generated through the breakdown of homogalacturonan pectins. The decayed and lesion edge areas had fewer and less diverse PDOs than healthy tissues, possibly due to metabolic by-products of the pathogen. This analytical technique provides a simple and rapid method to characterize the pectin-derived oligosaccharides produced by in vivo digestion during pathogen infection.

Abstract
We describe here the state-of-the-art development of on-line capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) over the last two years. Technological developments included are novel designs of new interfaces and ionization sources, new capillary coatings, buffers, and micelles as well as application of various modes of CE-MS published in the recent literature. The areas of CE-MS application in analysis of small achiral and chiral solutes are covered in sections that highlight the recent advances and possibilities of each mode of CE-MS. Application areas reviewed in this paper include achiral and chiral pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, carbohydrates, and small peptides. The separation of enantiomers using micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC)-MS with molecular micelles and capillary electrochromatography (CEC)-MS using pack tapered columns appears to provide good tolerance to electrospray stability for routine on-line CE-MS. These two modes seem to be very suitable for sensitive detection of chiral pharmaceuticals in biological samples, but their use will probably increase in the near future. Overall, it seems that one mode of CE-MS, in particular capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE)-MS, is now recognized as established technique for analysis of small charged solutes, but other modes, such as MEKC-MS and CEC-MS, are still within a period of development in terms of both MS-compatible pseudostationary phases and columns as well as applications.

Abstract
We report on the development of a novel methodology to extend the limits of capillary electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (CE-ESI-MS) general applicability. A sheathless on-line CE-ESI-MS setup was optimized on standard monosaccharide mixture to operate in reverse polarity and negative ion mode for MS detection without pressure to assist the sample migration, coating of the capillaries, and/or sample derivatization. This approach was further applied for screening of a complex glycopeptide mixture obtained from the urine of a patient diagnosed with N-acetylhexosaminidase deficiency, known as Schindler's disease. The potential of this methodology in terms of high sensitivity, separation efficiency, resolution, and reproducibility is demonstrated. In combination with the high quality of MS data, a new, significantly improved insight into the sample heterogeneity is possible.

Abstract
Meningococcal polysaccharides are medically important molecules and are the active components of vaccines against Neisseria meningiditis serogroups A, C, W135, and Y. This study demonstrates that free solution capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) using simple phosphate/borate separation buffers is capable of separating intact, native polysaccharides from these four serogroups. Separation appeared to be robust with respect to variations in test conditions and behaved in expected ways with respect to changes in temperature, ionic strength, and addition of an organic modifier. Serogroups W135 and Y are composed of sialic acid residues alternating with either galactose or glucose, respectively. Separation of these serogroups could be achieved using phosphate buffer and was therefore not dependent on differential complexation with borate. Addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate to the separation buffer (i.e., MEKC) resulted in peak splitting for all four serogroups. Changes in polysaccharide size did not affect migration time for the size range examined, but serogroup C polysaccharide (a sialic acid homopolymer) was separable from sialic acid monosaccharide. CZE quantification of multiple lots of each of the four serogroups was compared to wet chemical determination by phosphorus or sialic acid measurement. Results from CZE determination showed good agreement with the wet chemical methods.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) was treated with hyaluronate lyase (GBS HA lyase, E.C. 4.2.2.1, from Streptococcus agalactiae strain 4755), and the products have been analyzed by capillary electrophoresis (CE-UV and online CE-ESIMS), gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) and viscosimetric measurements. The resulting electropherograms showed that the enzyme produced a mixture of oligosaccharides with a 4,5-unsaturated uronic acid nonreducing terminus. More exhaustive degradation of HA led to increasing amounts of di-, tetra-, hexa-, octa- and decasaccharides. Using CE, linear relationships were found between peak area of the observed oligosaccharides and reaction time. Determination of viscosity at different stages of reaction yielded an initial rapid decrease following Michaelis-Menten theory. A reaction time-dependent change in the elution position of the HA peak due to partial digestion of HA with GBS hyaluronate lyase has been observed by GPC. These results indicated that the HA lyase under investigation is an eliminase that acts in a nonprocessive endolytic manner, as at all stages of digestion a mixture of oligosaccharides of different size were found. For GBS HA lyase from Streptococcus agalactiae strain 3502, previously published findings reported an action pattern that involves an initial random endolytic cleavage followed by rapid exolytic and processive release of unsaturated disaccharides. Our results suggest that differences between the two enzymes from distinct S. agalactiae strains (GBS strains 4755 and 3502) have to be considered.

Abstract
A novel approach in glycosaminoglycomics, based on sheathless on-line capillary electrophoresis/nanoelectrospray ionization-quadrupole time of flight-mass spectrometry (CE/nanoESI-QTOF-MS) and tandem MS of extended chondroitin sulfate/dermatan (CS/DS) oligosaccharide chains is described. The methodology required the construction of a new sheathless CE/nanoESI-QTOF-MS configuration, its implementation and optimization for the high sensitivity analysis of CS/DS oligosaccharide mixtures from conditioned culture medium of decorin transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells. Under newly established sheathless on-line CE/(-)nanoESI conditions for glycosaminoglycan (GAG) ionization and MS detection, single CS/DS oligosaccharide components of extended chain length and increased sulfation degree were identified. Molecular ions corresponding to species carrying 5 and 6 negative charges could be generated for large GAG oligosaccharide species in the negative ion nanoESI-MS. The optimized on-line conditions enabled the detection of molecular ions assigned to oversulfated tetradeca-, octadeca-, and eicosasaccharide CS/DS molecules, which represent the category of largest sulfated GAG-derived oligosaccharides evidenced by CE/ESI-MS. By on-line CE/ESI tandem MS in data-dependent acquisition mode the oversulfated eicosasaccharide species could be sequenced and the localization of the additional sulfate group along the chain could be determined.

Abstract
Application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem MS to glycoscreening in biomedical projects is highlighted. In the first part recent CE-MS experiments by sheath liquid CE and multiple stage MS are reported. Neutral and negatively charged N-glycan mixtures from ribonuclease B and fetuin, high-mannose type N-glycoforms, oligosaccharides from lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Haemophilus influenzae, polysaccharides of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus were analyzed. A particular emphasis is devoted to the applicability of novel off- and on-line CE-MS and tandem MS methods for screening of proteoglycan-derived oligosaccharides, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), such as hyaluronates from Streptococcus agalactiae, chondroitin/dermatan sulfates (CS/DS) from bovine aorta and human skin fibroblast decorin, and heparin/heparan sulfate (HS) from porcine and bovine mucosa. The performance of CE-MS/MS for identification of glycoforms in glycopeptides and glycoproteins is illustrated by experiments performed on complex mixtures from urine of patients suffering from a hereditary N-acetylhexosaminidase deficiency (Schindler's disease) and urine of patients suffering from cancer cachexia. For determination of glycosylation patterns in glycoproteins like enzymes and antibodies by CE/MS, both CE-matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and CE-electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS were functional. Finally, the potential of CE-ESI-MS strategy in glycolipid analysis is demonstrated for gangliosides from bovine brain for which particular CE buffer conditions are required.
