Abstract
In this work, we sought to validate the use of Euphorbia calyptrata (L.), a Saharan and Mediterranean medicinal plant, in traditional pharmacopeia. GC-MS/MS identified volatile compounds of potential therapeutic interest. Antioxidant tests were performed using β-carotene decolorization, DPPH radical scavenging, FRAP, beta-carotene bleaching, and TAC. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated on solid and liquid media for bacterial and fungal strains to determine the zone of inhibition and the minimum growth concentration (MIC) of the microbes tested. The hemolytic activity of these essential oils was assessed on red blood cells isolated from rat blood. Phytochemical characterization of the terpenic compounds by GC-MS/MS revealed 31 compounds, with alpha-Pinene dominating (35.96 %). The antioxidant power of the essential oils tested revealed an IC50 of 67.28 μg/mL (DPPH), EC50 of 80.25.08±1.42 μg/mL (FRAP), 94.83±2.11 μg/mL (beta carotene) and 985.07±0.70 μg/mL (TAC). Evaluating solid media's antibacterial and antifungal properties revealed a zone of inhibition between 10.28 mm and 25.80 mm and 31.48 and 34.21 mm, respectively. On liquid media, the MIC ranged from 10.27 μg/mL to 24.91 μg/mL for bacterial strains and from 9.32 μg/mL to 19.08 μg/mL for fungal strains. In molecular docking analysis, the compounds naphthalene, shogunal, and manol oxide showed the greatest activity against NADPH oxidase, with Glide G scores of -5.294, -5.218 and -5.161 kcal/mol, respectively. For antibacterial activity against E. coli beta-ketoacyl-[acyl carrier protein] synthase, the most potent molecules were cis-Calamenene, alpha.-Muurolene and Terpineol, with Glide G-scores of -6.804, -6.424 and -6.313 kcal/mol, respectively. Hemolytic activity revealed a final inhibition of 9.42±0.33 % for a 100 μg/mL concentration. The essential oils tested have good antioxidant, antimicrobial, and hemolytic properties thanks to their rich phytochemical composition, and molecular docking analysis confirmed their biological potency.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) enables label-free imaging of biomolecules in biological tissues. However, many species remain undetected due to their poor ionization efficiencies. MALDI-2 (laser-induced post-ionization) is the most widely used post-ionization method for improving analyte ionization efficiencies. Mass spectra acquired using MALDI-2 constitute a combination of ions generated by both MALDI and MALDI-2 processes. Until now, no studies have focused on a detailed comparison between the ion images (as opposed to the generated m/z values) produced by MALDI and MALDI-2 for mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) experiments. Herein, we investigated the ion images produced by both MALDI and MALDI-2 on the same tissue section using correlation analysis (to explore similarities in ion images for ions common to both MALDI and MALDI-2) and a deep learning approach. For the latter, we used an analytical workflow based on the Xception convolutional neural network, which was originally trained for human-like natural image classification but which we adapted to elucidate similarities and differences in ion images obtained using the two MSI techniques. Correlation analysis demonstrated that common ions yielded similar spatial distributions with low-correlation species explained by either poor signal intensity in MALDI or the generation of additional unresolved signals using MALDI-2. Using the Xception-based method, we identified many regions in the t-SNE space of spatially similar ion images containing MALDI and MALDI-2-related signals. More notably, the method revealed distinct regions containing only MALDI-2 ion images with unique spatial distributions that were not observed using MALDI. These data explicitly demonstrate the ability of MALDI-2 to reveal molecular features and patterns as well as histological regions of interest that are not visible when using conventional MALDI.

Abstract
Lipids are one of the cell components therefore it is important to be able to accurately assess them. One of the analytical techniques used to study lipid profiles is matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI TOF MS). The present study attempted to select optimal conditions for sample preparation and MALDI MS analysis of bacterial lipidome in both positive and negative ion modes using different extraction protocols-Folch, Matyash, and Bligh & Dyer, solvents used to apply samples, and matrices such as 9-aminoacridine (9-AA), α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT), and 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone (THAP). The obtained results allowed concluding that DHB or CHCA matrices are suitable for lipid analysis in the positive mode, and in the negative mode THAP or 9-AA. The most appropriate protocol for extracting lipids from bacterial cells was the Bligh & Dyer method in both ionization modes. The use of the solvent TA30, which was a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid in water, provided on the spectra a significant number of signals from lipids in all groups analyzed, such as fatty acyls, glycerolipids, and glycerophospholipids.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has accelerated our understanding of lipid metabolism and spatial distribution in tissues and cells. However, few MSI studies have approached lipid imaging quantitatively and those that have focused on a single lipid class. We overcome this limitation by using a multiclass internal standard (IS) mixture sprayed homogeneously over the tissue surface with concentrations that reflect those of endogenous lipids. This enabled quantitative MSI (Q-MSI) of 13 lipid classes and subclasses representing almost 200 sum-composition lipid species using both MALDI (negative ion mode) and MALDI-2 (positive ion mode) and pixel-wise normalization of each lipid species in a manner analogous to that widely used in shotgun lipidomics. The Q-MSI approach covered 3 orders of magnitude in dynamic range (lipid concentrations reported in pmol/mm2) and revealed subtle changes in distribution compared to data without normalization. The robustness of the method was evaluated by repeating experiments in two laboratories using both timsTOF and Orbitrap mass spectrometers with an ∼4-fold difference in mass resolution power. There was a strong overall correlation in the Q-MSI results obtained by using the two approaches. Outliers were mostly rationalized by isobaric interferences or the higher sensitivity of one instrument for a particular lipid species. These data provide insight into how the mass resolving power can affect Q-MSI data. This approach opens up the possibility of performing large-scale Q-MSI studies across numerous lipid classes and subclasses and revealing how absolute lipid concentrations vary throughout and between biological tissues.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. The precise mechanisms of HD progression are poorly understood; however, it is known that there is an expansion of the trinucleotide cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) repeat in the Huntingtin gene. Important new strategies are of paramount importance to identify early biomarkers with predictive value for intervening in disease progression at a stage when cellular dysfunction has not progressed irreversibly. Metabolomics is the study of global metabolite profiles in a system (cell, tissue, or organism) under certain conditions and is becoming an essential tool for the systemic characterization of metabolites to provide a snapshot of the functional and pathophysiological states of an organism and support disease diagnosis and biomarker discovery. This review briefly highlights the historical progress of metabolomic methodologies, followed by a more detailed review of the use of metabolomics in HD research to enable a greater understanding of the pathogenesis, its early prediction, and finally the main technical platforms in the field of metabolomics.

Abstract
Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is the most common form of cutaneous lupus1. It can cause permanent scarring. The pathophysiology of is not fully understood. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells are found in close association with apoptotic keratinocytes inferring close cellular signalling. Matrix Associated Laser Desorption Ionisation (MALDI) combined with Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) is an exquisitely sensitive combination to examine disease processes at the cellular and molecular level. Active areas of discoid lupus erythematosus were compared with normal perilesional skin using MALDI combined with FT-ICR-MS. A unique set of biomarkers, including epidermal lipids is identified in active discoid lupus. These were assigned as sphingomyelins, phospholipids and ceramides. Additionally, increased levels of proteins from the keratin, and small proline rich family, and aromatic amino acids (tryptophan, phenylalanine, and tyrosine) in the epidermis are observed. These techniques, applied to punch biopsies of the skin, have shown a distinctive lipid profile of active discoid lupus. This profile may indicate specific lipid signalling pathways. Lipid rich microdomains (known as lipid rafts) are involved in cell signalling and lipid abnormalities have been described with systemic lupus erythematosus which correlate with disease activity.

Abstract
Nigella sativa (NS) is a plant that has long been utilized in traditional medicine as a treatment for certain diseases. The aim of this work was to valorize the essential oil (EO) of this species by phytochemical analysis and antimicrobial and antioxidant evaluation. EO was extracted by hydrodistillation from the seeds of Nigella sativa (EO-NS). Phytochemical content of EO-NS was evaluated by use of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). Antioxidant ability was in vitro determined by use of three assays: 2.2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing power (FRAP), and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) relative to two synthetic antioxidants: BHT and quercetin. Antimicrobial effect was evaluated against four clinically important bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC 6633; Escherichia coli, K12; Bacillus subtilis, DSM 6333; and Proteus mirabilis, ATCC 29906) and against four fungal strains (Candida albicans, ATCC 10231; Aspergillus niger, MTCC 282; Aspergillus flavus, MTCC 9606; and Fusarium oxysporum, MTCC 9913). Fifteen constituents that accounted for the majority of the mass of the EO-NS were identified and quantified by use of GC-MSMS. The main component was O-cymene (37.82%), followed by carvacrol (17.68%), α-pinene (10.09%), trans-sabinene hydrate (9.90%), and 4-terpineol (7.15%). EO-NS exhibited significant antioxidant activity with IC50, EC50, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of
,
, and
mg EAA/g, respectively. Additionally, EO-NS exhibited promising antibacterial activity on all strains under investigation, especially on E. coli K12 resulting in inhibition diameter of
mm and a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of
μg/mL. Also, EO-NS had significant antifungal efficacy, with a percentage of inhibition of
% and MIC of
μg/mL against F. oxysporum, MTCC 9913 and with a diameter of inhibition
mm and MIC of
μg/mL against C. albicans. To minimize development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, EO-NS can be utilized as a natural, alternative to synthetic antibiotics and antioxidants to treat free radicals implicated in microbial infection-related inflammatory reactions.

Abstract
On their way to the oocyte, sperm cells are subjected to oxidative stress, which may trigger the oxidation of phospholipids (PL). Applying MALDI-TOF MS, HPTLC and ESI-IT MS, we comparatively analyzed the PL compositions of semen and blood of species differing in their reproductive systems and types of nutrition (bull, boar, stallion, lion and man) with regard to the sensitivity to oxidation as well as the accumulation of harmful lyso-PL (LPL), transient products of lipid oxidation. In addition, the protective capacity of seminal fluid (SF) was also examined. The PL composition of erythrocytes and blood plasma is similar across the species, while pronounced differences exist for sperm and SF. Since the blood function is largely conserved across mammalian species, but the reproductive systems may vary in many aspects, the obtained results suggest that the PL composition is not determined by the type of nutrition, but by the relatedness of species and by functional requirements of cell membranes such as fluidity. Sperm motion and fertilization of oocytes require a rather flexible membrane, which is accomplished by significant moieties of unsaturated fatty acyl residues in sperm lipids of most species, but implies a higher risk of oxidation. Due to a high content of plasmalogens (alkenyl ether lipids), bull sperm are most susceptible to oxidation. Our data indicate that bull sperm possess the most effective protective power in SF. Obviously, a co-evolution of PL composition and protective mechanisms has occurred in semen and is related to the reproductive characteristics. Although the protective capacity in human SF seems well developed, we recorded the most pronounced individual contaminations with LPL in human semen. Probably, massive oxidative challenges related to lifestyle factors interfere with natural conditions.

Abstract
Simple Summary Developing new anticancer medicaments is focused on inducing controlled elimination of tumor tissue without severe side effects. It is essential to enable the medicament to reach the target molecule without provoking the immune response too early. The first cellular changes might occur already at the level of the cell membrane, composed mainly of lipids. Therefore, we used spectroscopic techniques to study the interaction of potential metallodrug [Ru(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2CN] (RuCN) with lipids of A2780 ovarian cancer cells and investigated if these changes are affected by the presence of drug carriers (carbon dots (CDs) and nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs)). Our results showed that CDs and N-CDs prevent lysis and moderate oxidative stress of lipids caused by metallodrug, still keeping the antitumor activity and potential to penetrate through the lipid bilayer. Therefore, Ru drug loading to carriers balances the anticancer efficiency and leads to better anticancer outcomes by reducing the oxidative stress that has been linked to cancer progression. Abstract In the last decade, targeting membrane lipids in cancer cells has been a promising approach that deserves attention in the field of anticancer drug development. To get a comprehensive understanding of the effect of the drug [Ru(η5-Cp)(PPh3)2CN] (RuCN) on cell lipidic components, we combine complementary analytical approaches, matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI TOF MS) and synchrotron radiation-based Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) spectroscopy. Techniques are used for screening the effect of potential metallodrug, RuCN, without and with drug carriers (carbon dots (CDs) and nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs)) on the lipids of the human ovarian cancer cell line A2780. MALDI TOF MS results revealed that the lysis of ovarian cancer membrane lipids is promoted by RuCN and not by drug carriers (CDs and N-CDs). Furthermore, SR-FTIR results strongly suggested that the phospholipids of cancer cells undergo oxidative stress after the treatment with RuCN that was accompanied by the disordering of the fatty acid chains. On the other hand, using (N-)CDs as RuCN nanocarriers prevented the oxidative stress caused by RuCN but did not prevent the disordering of the fatty acid chain packing. Finally, we demonstrated that RuCN and RuCN/(N-)CDs alter the hydration of the membrane surface in the membrane–water interface region.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) is an indispensable tool in modern lipid research since it is fast, sensitive, tolerates sample impurities and provides spectra without major analyte fragmentation. We will discuss some methodological aspects, the related ion-forming processes and the MALDI MS characteristics of the different lipid classes (with the focus on glycerophospholipids) and the progress, which was achieved during the last ten years. Particular attention will be given to quantitative aspects of MALDI MS since this is widely considered as the most serious drawback of the method. Although the detailed role of the matrix is not yet completely understood, it will be explicitly shown that the careful choice of the matrix is crucial (besides the careful evaluation of the positive and negative ion mass spectra) in order to be able to detect all lipid classes of interest. Two developments will be highlighted: spatially resolved Imaging MS is nowadays well established and the distribution of lipids in tissues merits increasing interest because lipids are readily detectable and represent ubiquitous compounds. It will also be shown that a combination of MALDI MS with thin-layer chromatography (TLC) enables a fast spatially resolved screening of an entire TLC plate which makes the method competitive with LC/MS.

Abstract
Lipid research is attracting more and more attention as various key roles and novel biological functions of lipids have been demonstrated and discovered in the organism. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based lipidomics approaches are the most powerful and effective tools for analysis of cellular lipidomes with very high sensitivity and specificity. However, the artifacts generated from in-source fragmentation are always present in all kinds of ion sources, even soft ionization techniques (i.e., electrospray ionization and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization [MALDI]). These artifacts can cause many problems for lipidomics, especially when the fragment ions correspond to/are isomeric species of other endogenous lipid species in complex biological samples. These commonly observed artifacts could lead to misannotation, false identification, and consequently, incorrect attribution of phenotypes, and will have negative impact on any MS-based lipidomics research including but not limited to biomarker discovery, drug development, etc. Liquid chromatography-MS, shotgun lipidomics, and MALDI-MS imaging are three representative lipidomics approaches in which ion source-generated artifacts are all manifested and are comprehensively summarized in this article. The strategies on how to avoid/reduce the artifacts of in-source fragmentation on lipidomics analysis are also discussed in detail. We believe that with the recognition and avoidance of ion source-generated artifacts, MS-based lipidomics approaches will provide better accuracy on comprehensive analysis of biological samples and will make greater contribution to the research on metabolism and translational/precision medicine (collectively termed functional lipidomics). © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry has emerged as an extremely powerful analytical tool, which is widely used in many fields. This broad application range became possible with the invention of MALDI and ESI as "soft ionization" techniques that keep fragmentation of the analyte to a minimum. However, when these techniques are applied to mixture analysis, less-sensitively detectable compounds may be suppressed by more sensitively detectable compounds, a process called "ion suppression". Thus, previous separation of the mixture into the individual lipid classes is necessary to be able to detect all compounds. This review summarizes the current knowledge in the field of combined TLC/MS and discusses the most important strengths and weaknesses of the different MS (particularly ionization) techniques with respect to phospholipids. This comprises techniques such as MALDI and ESI, but less established approaches such as plasma desorption will be also discussed.

Abstract

Spatial metabolomics
using mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a
powerful tool to map hundreds to thousands of metabolites in biological
systems. One major challenge in MSI is the annotation of m/z values, which is substantially complicated by
background ions introduced throughout the chemicals and equipment
used during experimental procedures. Among many factors, the formation
of adducts with sodium or potassium ions, or in case of matrix-assisted
laser desorption ionization (MALDI)-MSI, the presence of abundant
matrix clusters strongly increases total m/z peak counts. Currently, there is a limitation to identify
the chemistry of the many unknown peaks to interpret their biological
function. We took advantage of the co-localization of adducts with
their parent ions and the accuracy of high mass resolution to estimate
adduct abundance in 20 datasets from different vendors of mass spectrometers.
Metabolites ranging from lipids to amines and amino acids form matrix
adducts with the commonly used 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) matrix
like [M + (DHB-H2O) + H]+ and [M + DHB + Na]+. Current data analyses neglect those matrix adducts and overestimate
total metabolite numbers, thereby expanding the number of unidentified
peaks. Our study demonstrates that MALDI-MSI data are strongly influenced
by adduct formation across different sample types and vendor platforms
and reveals a major influence of so far unrecognized metabolite–matrix
adducts on total peak counts (up to one third). We developed a software
package, mass2adduct, for the community
for an automated putative assignment and quantification of metabolite–matrix
adducts enabling users to ultimately focus on the biologically relevant
portion of the MSI data.

Abstract
A binary system composed of carbon dots (CDs) and N-doped CDs (N-CDs) embedded in an organic matrix was used for the analysis of cholesterol by MALDI (matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization time-of-flight) mass spectrometry, as a model for detection of small, biologically relevant molecules. The results showed that both CDs are sensitive to the cholesterol and can be used either alone or in a binary system with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) to enhance the detection process. It was found that both COOH and NH2 groups on CDs surface contributed to the enhancement in the cholesterol detection by MALDI mass spectrometry in the presence of inorganic cations. Nevertheless, in the presence of NaCl, N-CDs led to a better reproducibility of results. It was due to the coexistence of positive and negative charge on N-CDs surface that led to a homogeneous analyte/substrate distribution, which is an important detection parameter. The enhancing effect of carbon dots was linked to a negative Gibbs energy of the complex formation between CDs, Na+, cholesterol and DHB, and it was supported by theoretical calculations. Moreover, upon the addition of CDs/N-CDs, such features as a low ionization potential, vertical excitation, dipole moment and oscillator strength positively affected the cholesterol detection by MALDI in the presence of Na+.

Abstract
In legumes, symbiotic nitrogen (N) fixation (SNF) occurs in specialized organs called nodules after successful interactions between legume hosts and rhizobia. In a nodule, N-fixing rhizobia are surrounded by symbiosome membranes, through which the exchange of nutrients and ammonium occurs between bacteria and the host legume. Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient, and N2-fixing legumes have a higher requirement for P than legumes grown on mineral N. As in the previous studies, in P deficiency, barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) plants had impaired SNF activity, reduced growth, and accumulated less phosphate in leaves, roots, and nodules compared with the plants grown in P sufficient conditions. Membrane lipids in M. truncatula tissues were assessed using electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry. Galactolipids were found to increase in P deficiency, with declines in phospholipids (PL), especially in leaves. Lower PL losses were found in roots and nodules. Subsequently, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry imaging was used to spatially map the distribution of the positively charged phosphatidylcholine (PC) species in nodules in both P-replete and P-deficient conditions. Our results reveal heterogeneous distribution of several PC species in nodules, with homogeneous distribution of other PC classes. In P poor conditions, some PC species distributions were observed to change. The results suggest that specific PC species may be differentially important in diverse nodule zones and cell types, and that membrane lipid remodeling during P stress is not uniform across the nodule.

Abstract
A production prototype structures for lossless ion manipulation ion mobility (SLIM IM) platform interfaced to a commercial high-resolution mass spectrometer (MS) is described. The SLIM IM implements the traveling wave ion mobility technique across a ∼13m path length for high-resolution IM (HRIM) separations. The resolving power (CCS/ΔCCS) of the SLIM IM stage was benchmarked across various parameters (traveling wave speeds, amplitudes, and waveforms), and results indicated that resolving powers in excess of 200 can be accessed for a broad range of masses. For several cases, resolving powers greater than 300 were achieved, notably under wave conditions where ions transition from a nonselective "surfing" motion to a mobility-selective ion drift, that corresponded to ion speeds approximately 30-70% of the traveling wave speed. The separation capabilities were evaluated on a series of isomeric and isobaric compounds that cannot be resolved by MS alone, including reversed-sequence peptides (SDGRG and GRGDS), triglyceride double-bond positional isomers (TG 3, 6, 9 and TG 6, 9, 12), trisaccharides (melezitose, raffinose, isomaltotriose, and maltotriose), and ganglioside lipids (GD1b and GD1a). The SLIM IM platform resolved the corresponding isomeric mixtures, which were unresolvable using the standard resolution of a drift-tube instrument (∼50). In general, the SLIM IM-MS platform is capable of resolving peaks separated by as little as ∼0.6% without the need to target a specific separation window or drift time. Low CCS measurement biases <0.5% were obtained under high resolving power conditions. Importantly, all the analytes surveyed are able to access high-resolution conditions (>200), demonstrating that this instrument is well-suited for broadband HRIM separations important in global untargeted applications.

Abstract
Altered lipid metabolism has been associated with the progression of various cancers, and aberrant expression of enzymes involved in the lipid metabolism has been detected in different stages of cancer. Breast cancer (BC) is one of the cancer types known to be associated with alterations in the lipid metabolism and overexpression of enzymes involved in this metabolism. It has been demonstrated that inhibition of the activity of certain enzymes, such as that of phospholipase A2 in BC cell lines sensitizes these cells and decreases the IC50 values for forthcoming therapy with traditional drugs, such as doxorubicin and tamoxifen. Moreover, other phospholipases, such as phospholipase C and D, are involved in intracellular signal transduction, which emphasizes their importance in cancer development. Finally, BC is assumed to be dependent on the diet and the composition of lipids in nutrients. Despite their importance, analytical approaches that can associate the activity of phospholipases with changes in the lipid composition and distribution in cancer tissues are not yet standardized. In this review, an overview of various analytical platforms that are applied on the study of lipids and phospholipase activity in BC tissues will be given, as well as their association with cancer diagnosis and tumor progression. The methods that are applied to tissues obtained from the BC patients will be emphasized and critically evaluated, regarding their applicability in oncology.

Abstract
RATIONALE We report the top-down lignomic analysis of the virgin released lignin (VRL) small oligomers obtained from French Oak wood. METHODS We have used MALDI-TOF-MS in the negative ion mode for the analysis of the complex mixture of lignin oligomers extracted from French Oak wood. High-energy CID-TOF/TOF-MS/MS analyses were used to support the postulated precursor ion structures. RESULTS Twenty compounds were identified using MALDI-TOF-MS/MS of the VRL extracted from French Oak wood: seven tricin derivatives and/or flavonoids, three syringylglycerol derivatives, two syringol derivatives, two flavonolignin derivatives, and six miscellaneous compounds: luteoferol, lariciresinol isomer, 5-hydroxy guaiacyl derivative, syringyl -C10 H10 O2 dimer, trihydroxy benzaldehyde derivative, and aryl tetralin lignan derivative. Most of the identified compounds were in the form of carbohydrate and/or shikimic acid complexes. CONCLUSIONS The analysis of this complex mixture led to the identification of a series of lignin dimers, novel lignin-carbohydrate complexes (LCC), and unique tricin derivatives linked to different types of carbohydrates and shikimic acid moieties. This finding supports the presence of lignin-carbohydrate complexes in the isolated VRL. These analyses also showed that French Oak lignin is abundant in syringol moieties present in the lignin syringyl units or tricin derivatives. Moreover, the identification of some lignin-carbohydrate and/or flavonoid-shikimic acid complexes could provide new insight into the relationship between the biosynthesis of lignin and tricin.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal diseases are extremely widespread and a significant burden on the health systems of the industrialized countries. The use of mesenchymal stromal cells is a promising approach to cure cartilage and tendon injuries, which often also occur in younger people as consequences of sport accidents. Although particular interest is on the collagen and the glycosaminoglycan composition of the tendon and potential alterations compared to healthy tissue, there is nowadays also increasing evidence that some selected phospholipids (PL) are potential mediators of tissue regeneration. Therefore, PL (and potential changes thereof) attract increasing interest in this field. We have used positive and negative ion matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) to elucidate the lipid compositions of human mesenchymal stromal cells in dependence on the composition of the cell culture medium and the cultivation time. The de novo biosynthesis of PL was monitored by adding 13C labeled glucose or deuterated palmitic acid (d31-PA) to the cells and the incorporation of 13C or 2H into the different PL classes was investigated by electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS). It is remarkable that all PL classes (for instance, phosphatidylcholine and -inositol) exhibited 13C incorporation - but not the sphingomyelin (SM) which is the most abundant sphingolipid in the majority of human tissues and body fluids. Using suitable internal standards it could be shown, that only 12C-containing SM is de novo generated while no 13C-labeled SM could be monitored - independent of the cultivation time, which was varied between 7 and 28 days. SM impurities stemming from the cell culture medium and the used MALDI matrix compounds (2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) or 9-aminoacridine (9-AA)) could be ruled out. However, incorporation of deuterated palmitic acid (d31-PA) could be observed for multiple PL, including SM. Therefore, it is suggested that there must exist another, so far unknown SM biosynthesis pathway. This pathway does not make use of glucose but relies on the use of other molecules as energy sources. Potential pathways to explain the experimental observations are discussed.

Validation of MALDI-MS imaging data of selected membrane lipids in murine brain with and without laser postionization by quantitative nano-HPLC-MS using laser microdissection.

Abstract
MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is a widely used technique to map the spatial distribution of molecules in sectioned tissue. The technique is based on the systematic generation and analysis of ions from small sample volumes, each representing a single pixel of the investigated sample surface. Subsequently, mass spectrometric images for any recorded ion species can be generated by displaying the signal intensity at the coordinate of origin for each of these pixels. Although easily equalized, these recorded signal intensities, however, are not necessarily a good measure for the underlying amount of analyte and care has to be taken in the interpretation of MALDI-MSI data. Physical and chemical properties that define the analyte molecules’ adjacencies in the tissue largely influence the local extraction and ionization efficiencies, possibly leading to strong variations in signal intensity response. Here, we inspect the validity of signal intensity distributions recorded from murine cerebellum as a measure for the underlying molar distributions. Based on segmentation derived from MALDI-MSI measurements, laser microdissection (LMD) was used to cut out regions of interest with a homogenous signal intensity. The molar concentration of six exemplary selected membrane lipids from different lipid classes in these tissue regions was determined using quantitative nano-HPLC-ESI-MS. Comparison of molar concentrations and signal intensity revealed strong deviations between underlying concentration and the distribution suggested by MSI data. Determined signal intensity response factors strongly depend on tissue type and lipid species. Graphical abstract ![]()

Abstract
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is used increasingly to simultaneously detect a broad range of biomolecules while mapping their spatial distributions within biological tissue sections. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) is recognized as the method-of-choice for MSI applications due in part to its broad molecular coverage. In spite of the remarkable advantages offered by MALDI, imaging of neutral lipids, such as triglycerides (TGs), from tissue has remained a significant challenge due to ion suppression of TGs by phospholipids, e.g. phosphatidylcholines (PCs). To help overcome this limitation, silicon nanopost array (NAPA) substrates were introduced to selectively ionize TGs from biological tissue sections. This matrix-free laser desorption ionization (LDI) platform was previously shown to provide enhanced ionization of certain lipid classes, such as hexosylceramides (HexCers) and phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) from mouse brain tissue. In this work, we present NAPA as an MSI platform offering enhanced ionization efficiency for TGs from biological tissues relative to MALDI, allowing it to serve as a complement to MALDI-MSI. Analysis of a standard lipid mixture containing PC(18:1/18:1) and TG(16:0/16:0/16:0) by LDI from NAPA provided an ~49 and ~227-fold higher signal for TG(16:0/16:0/16:0) relative to MALDI, when analyzed without and with the addition of a sodium acetate, respectively. In contrast, MALDI provided an ~757 and ~295-fold higher signal for PC(18:1/18:1) compared with NAPA, without and with additional Na+ . Averaged signal intensities for TGs from MSI of mouse lung and human skin tissues exhibited an ~105 and ~49-fold increase, respectively, with LDI from NAPA compared with MALDI. With respect to PCs, MALDI provided an ~2 and ~19-fold increase in signal intensity for mouse lung and human skin tissues, respectively, when compared with NAPA. The complementary coverage obtained by the two platforms demonstrates the utility of using both techniques to maximize the information obtained from lipid MS or MSI experiments.

Abstract
As a consequence of the detoxification process, drugs and drug related metabolites can accumulate in the liver, resulting in drug induced liver injury (DILI), which is the major cause for dose limitation. Amitriptyline, a commonly used tricyclic anti-depressant, is known to cause DILI. The mechanism of Amitriptyline induced liver injury is not yet completely understood. However, as it undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism, unraveling the molecular changes in the liver upon Amitriptyline treatment can help understand Amitriptyline's mode of toxicity. In this study, Amitriptyline treated male rat liver tissue was analyzed using Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MALDI-MSI) to investigate the spatial abundances of Amitriptyline, lipids, and bile acids. The metabolism of Amitriptyline in liver tissue was successfully demonstrated, as the spatial distribution of Amitriptyline and its metabolites localize throughout treatment group liver samples. Several lipids appear upregulated, from which nine were identified as distinct phosphatidylcholine (PC) species. The detected bile acids were found to be lower in Amitriptyline treatment group. The combined results from histological findings, Oil Red O staining, and lipid zonation by MSI revealed lipid upregulation in the periportal area indicating drug induced macrovesicular steatosis (DIS).

Abstract
The lipid composition of sperm membranes is crucial for fertilization and differs among species. As the evolution of internal fertilization modes in fishes is not understood, a comparative study of the sperm lipid composition in freshwater representatives of externally and internally fertilizing fishes is needed for a better understanding of taxa-specific relationships between the lipid composition of the sperm membrane and the sperm physiology. The lipidomes of spermatozoa from stingray, a representative of cartilaginous fishes possessing internal fertilization, and sterlet, a representative of chondrostean fishes with external fertilization, have been studied by means of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), electrospray MS, gas chromatography-(GC) MS, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC). NMR experiments revealed higher cholesterol content and the presence of phosphatidylserine in stingray compared to sterlet sperm. Unknown MS signals could be assigned to different glycosphingolipids in sterlet (neutral glycosphingolipid Gal-Cer(d18:1/16:0)) and stingray (acidic glycosphingolipid sulpho-Gal-Cer(d18:1/16:0)). Free fatty acids in sterlet sperm indicate internal energy storage. GC-MS experiments indicated a significant amount of adrenic acid, but only a low amount of docosahexaenoic acid in stingray sperm. In a nutshell, this study provides novel data on sperm lipid composition for freshwater stingray and sterlet possessing different modes of fertilization.

Abstract
Populations of industrialized countries have registered a dramatically increasing prevalence in obesity for many years. Despite continuous research, mechanisms involved in the storage and utilization of chemical energy in adipocytes are still under investigation. Adipocytes have the task to store excessive energy in the form of triacylglycerols (TG) and it is already well-known that the fatty acyl composition of TG is largely determined by the composition of the diet. In contrast to TG, the composition of adipocyte phospholipids was less comprehensively investigated. In this study, the compositions of the most abundant phospholipid classes of 3T3-L1 undifferentiated (preadipocytes) and differentiated cells (adipocytes) were determined. The lipid fractions were isolated by normal phase high-performance thin-layer chromatography and subsequently analyzed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Additionally, the fatty acyl (FA) compositions were determined by gas chromatography. The positions of the FA residues were additionally confirmed by phospholipase A2 digestion. The advantages and disadvantages of the different analytical approaches will be discussed. It will be shown that undifferentiated 3T3-L1 and mature adipocytes differ extremely regarding their compositions. This goes along with an increase in odd-chain fatty acids. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current methods to identify, classify, and predict tumor behavior mostly rely on histology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular determinants. However, better predictive markers are required for tumor diagnosis and evaluation. Due, in part, to recent technological advancements, metabolomics and lipid biomarkers have become a promising area in cancer research. Therefore, there is a necessity for novel and complementary techniques to identify and visualize these molecular markers within tumors and surrounding tissue. RECENT FINDINGS Since its introduction, mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has proven to be a powerful tool for mapping analytes in biological tissues. By adding the label-free specificity of mass spectrometry to the detailed spatial information of traditional histology, hundreds of lipids can be imaged simultaneously within a tumor. MSI provides highly detailed lipid maps for comparing intra-tumor, tumor margin, and healthy regions to identify biomarkers, patterns of disease, and potential therapeutic targets. In this manuscript, recent advancement in sample preparation and MSI technologies are discussed with special emphasis on cancer lipid research to identify tumor biomarkers. CONCLUSION MSI offers a unique approach for biomolecular characterization of tumor tissues and provides valuable complementary information to histology for lipid biomarker discovery and tumor classification in clinical and research cancer applications.

Abstract
In the last ten years, mass spectrometry (MS) has become the favored analytical technique for sphingolipid (SPL) analysis and measurements. Indeed MS has the unique ability to both acquire sensitive and quantitative measurements and to resolve the molecular complexity characteristic of SPL molecules, both across the different SPL families and within the same SPL family. Currently, two complementary MS-based approaches are used for lipid research: analysis of lipid extracts, mainly by infusion electrospray ionization (ESI), and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) from a sample surface (i.e. intact tissue sections, cells, model membranes, thin layer chromatography plates) (Fig. 1). The first allows for sensitive and quantitative information about total lipid molecular species from a given specimen from which lipids have been extracted and chromatographically separated prior to the analysis; the second, albeit generally less quantitative and less specific in the identification of molecular species due to the complexity of the sample, allows for spatial information of lipid molecules from biological specimens. In the field of SPL research, MS analysis of lipid extracts from biological samples has been commonly utilized to implicate the role of these lipids in specific biological functions. On the other hand, the utilization of MSI in SPL research represents a more recent development that has started to provide interesting descriptive observations regarding the distribution of specific classes of SPLs within tissues. Thus, it is the aim of this review to discuss how MSI technology has been employed to extend the study of SPL metabolism and the type of information that has been obtained from model membranes, single cells and tissues. We envision this discussion as a complementary compendium to the excellent technical reviews recently published about the specifics of MSI technologies, including their application to SPL analysis (Fuchs et al., 2010; Berry et al., 2011; Ellis et al., 2013; Eberlin et al., 2011; Kraft and Klitzing, 2014).

The effects of acetyl-l-carnitine (ALC) supplementation during IVM on subsequently vitrified buffalo oocytes were evaluated, followed by determination of the mitochondrial DNA copy number, measurement of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and identification of the lipid profile of oocyte membranes as markers of oocyte quality after vitrification. Supplementation with ALC during IVM significantly improved the rates of oocyte cleavage and morula and blastocyst formation, and increased MMP after vitrification compared with unsupplemented vitrified oocytes (P<0.05). Using a bidirectional orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis based on positive ion matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry data, five phospholipid ions (m/z 728.7 (phosphatidylcholine (PC) 32:3), 746.9 (PC 32:5), 760.6 (PC 34:1), 768.8 (PC P-36:3) and 782.6 (PC 36:4); P<0.05) were identified as significantly more abundant in fresh oocytes than in unsupplemented vitrified oocytes. Meanwhile, three phospholipid ions (m/z 734.6 (PC 32:0), 760.6 (PC 34:1), and 782.6 (PC 36:4); P<0.05) were more abundant in ALC-supplemented vitrified oocytes than in unsupplemented vitrified oocytes. Therefore, supplementation with ALC during IVM may improve buffalo oocyte quality after vitrification by enhancing mitochondrial function and altering the phospholipid composition of vitrified oocyte membranes.

Abstract
The presence of lipids within starch granules is specific to cereal endosperm starches. These starch lipids are composed of lysophospholipids, especially lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC) and free fatty acids that strongly impact the assembly and properties of cereal starches. However, the molecular mechanisms associated with this specific lipid routing have never been investigated. In this study, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging revealed decreasing gradients in starch LysoPC concentrations from the periphery to the center of developing maize endosperms. This spatiotemporal deposition of starch LysoPC was similar to that previously observed for endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-synthesized storage proteins, i.e. zeins, suggesting that LysoPC might originate in the ER, as already reported for chloroplasts. Furthermore, a decrease of the palmitate concentration of amyloplast galactolipids was observed during endosperm development, correlated with the preferential trapping of palmitoyl-LysoPC by starch carbohydrates, suggesting a link between LysoPC and galactolipid synthesis. Using microarray, the homologous genes of the Arabidopsis ER-chloroplast lipid trafficking and galactolipid synthesis pathways were also expressed in maize endosperm. These strong similarities suggest that the encoded enzymes and transporters are adapted to managing the differences between chloroplast and amyloplast lipid homeostasis. Altogether, our results led us to propose a model where ER-amyloplast lipid trafficking directs the LysoPC towards one of two routes, the first towards the stroma and starch granules and the other towards galactolipid synthesis.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) is one of the most successful “soft” ionization methods in the field of mass spectrometry and enables the analysis of a broad range of molecules, including lipids. Although the details of the ionization process are still unknown, the importance of the matrix is commonly accepted. Both, the development of and the search for useful matrices was, and still is, an empirical process, since properties like vacuum stability, high absorption at the laser wavelength, etc. have to be fulfilled by a compound to become a useful matrix. This review provides a survey of successfully used MALDI matrices for the lipid analyses of complex biological samples. The advantages and drawbacks of the established organic matrix molecules (cinnamic or benzoic acid derivatives), liquid crystalline matrices, and mixtures of common matrices will be discussed. Furthermore, we will deal with nanocrystalline matrices, which are most suitable to analyze small molecules, such as free fatty acids. It will be shown that the analysis of mixtures and the quantitative analysis of small molecules can be easily performed if the matrix is carefully selected. Finally, some basic principles of how useful matrix compounds can be “designed” de novo will be introduced.

Abstract
The synthesis of nonnatural phospholipid, phosphatidylhydroxybutyrate (PB), was firstly introduced by phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated transphosphatidylation of phosphatidylcholine (PC) with sodium γ-hydroxybutyrate (NaGHB) in the aqueous-solid system. Nanoscale silicon dioxide (NSD) was employed as a carrier to provide an "artificial interphase" between PC and PLD. Special attention has been paid to the effect of the PC coverage on the surface area of hybrids of NSD-PC, the PC loading and the yield of PB. Results indicated that the highest PC loading of 98.3% and the highest PB yield of 97.3% were achieved. In addition, the free PLD in the aqueous-solid system showed the greater stability and pH tolerance than that in the traditional liquid-liquid system. The operational stability of free PLD solution was investigated. The yield of PB remained 70.7% after being used for five batches. The authors provide a new idea for drug design and the potential source of PB for medical experiments. PB is a potential drug and may have the excellent performance in the treatment of central nervous system's diseases. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Abstract
Over the past decade, mass spectrometry (MS)-based "shotgun lipidomics" has emerged as a powerful tool for quantitative and qualitative analysis of the complex lipids in the biological system. The aim of this critical review is to give the interested reader a concise overview of the current state of the technology, focused on lipidomic analysis by mass spectrometry. The pros and cons, and pitfalls associated with each available "shotgun lipidomics" method are discussed; and the new strategies for improving the current methods are described. A list of important papers and reviews that are sufficient rather than comprehensive, covering all the aspects of lipidomics including the workflow, methodology, and fundamentals is also compiled for readers to follow.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) techniques are nowadays widely used to obtain spatially resolved metabolite information from biological tissues. Since (phospho)lipids occur in all animal tissues and are very sensitively detectable, they are often in the focus of such studies. This particularly applies for phosphatidylcholines (PC) which are very sensitively detectable as positive ions due to the permanent positive charge of their choline headgroup. Areas covered: After a short introduction of lipid species occurring in biological systems and approaches normally used to obtain spatially resolved mass spectra (with the focus on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization coupled to time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) MSI) a survey will be given which diseases have so far been characterized by changes of the PC composition. Expert commentary: Since PC species are very sensitively detectable by MS, sensitivity is not a major issue. However, spatial resolution is still limited and cellular dimensions can be hardly resolved by MALDI-TOF MSI, which is a critical point of the available approaches. Due to lacks of reproducibility and standardization further development is required.

Abstract
Dietary rumen-protected polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) rich in linoleic acid (LA) may affect embryo yield, and LA can modulate the molecular mechanisms of lipid uptake in bovine blastocysts produced in vitro. In embryos, membrane lipids, such as phosphatidylcholines (PCs) and sphingomyelins (SMs), affect cryopreservation success. The aim of the present study was to evaluate embryonic developmental rates after the IVF of oocytes retrieved from Nellore heifers fed for approximately 90 days with rumen-protected PUFAs rich in LA. In addition, we evaluated embryo cryotolerance and the membrane structure lipid composition using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation mass spectrometry of fresh and vitrified embryos. Embryo development to the blastocyst stage (mean 43.2%) and embryo survival after vitrification and warming (mean 79.3%) were unaffected by diet. The relative abundance of one lipid species (PC ether (PCe; 38:2, which means that this lipid has 38 carbon atoms and 2 double bonds in the fatty acyl residues) was increased after PUFAs supplementation. However, 10 ions were affected by cryopreservation; ions consistent with PC 32:0, PC 34:1, SM 24:1, PC 40:6 or PC 42:9, PC plasmalogen (PCp) 44:10 or PC 42:7, triacylglycerol (TAG) 54:9 and a not assigned ion (m/z 833.2) were lower in blastocysts that survived to the cryopreservation process compared with fresh blastocysts, whereas the abundance of the ions PC 36:3 or PC 34:0, PCe 38:2 or PC 36:6 and PC 36:5 or PCe 38:1 were increased after cryopreservation. Thus, the results demonstrate that the mass spectrometry profiles of PC, SM and TAG species differ significantly in bovine blastocysts upon cryopreservation. Because the lipid ion abundances of fresh and vitrified-warmed embryos were distinct, they can be used as potential markers of post-cryopreservation embryonic survival.

Abstract
Lipids are important and abundant constituents of all biological tissues and body fluids. In particular, phospholipids (PL) constitute a major part of the cellular membrane, play a role in signal transduction, and some selected PL are increasingly considered as potential disease markers. However, methods of lipid analysis are less established in comparison to techniques of protein analysis. Mass spectrometry (MS) is an increasingly used technique to analyze lipids, especially in combination with electrospray ionization (ESI) MS which is the so far best established ionization method. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) MS has itself proven to be also useful in the field of lipid analysis. 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is another powerful method of PL analysis, represents a direct quantitative method, and does not suffer from suppression effects.This chapter gives an overview of methodological aspects of MALDI-TOF MS and 31P NMR in lipid research and summarizes the specific advantages and drawbacks of both methods. In particular, suppression effects in MS will be highlighted and possible ways to overcome this problem (use of different matrices, separation of the relevant lipid mixture prior to analysis) will be discussed.

Abstract
Lipids, particularly phospholipids (PLs), are key components of cellular membrane. PLs play important and diverse roles in cells such as chemical-energy storage, cellular signaling, cell membranes, and cell-cell interactions in tissues. All these cellular processes are pertinent to cells that undergo transformation, cancer progression, and metastasis. Thus, there is a strong possibility that some classes of PLs are expected to present in cancer cells and tissues in cellular physiology. The mass spectrometric soft-ionization techniques, electrospray ionization (ESI), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) are well-established in the proteomics field, have been used for lipidomic analysis in cancer research. This review focused on the applications of mass spectrometry (MS) mainly on ESI-MS and MALDI-MS in the structural characterization, molecular composition and key roles of various PLs present in cancer cells, tissues, blood, and urine, and on their importance for cancer-related problems as well as challenges for development of novel PL-based biomarkers. The profiling of PLs helps to rationalize their functions in biological systems, and will also provide diagnostic information to elucidate mechanisms behind the control of cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases. The investigation of cellular PLs with MS methods suggests new insights on various cancer diseases and clinical applications in the drug discovery and development of biomarkers for various PL-related different cancer diseases. PL profiling in tissues, cells and body fluids also reflect the general condition of the whole organism and can indicate the existence of cancer and other diseases. PL profiling with MS opens new prospects to assess alterations of PLs in cancer, screening specific biomarkers and provide a basis for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The fascinating ability of myxobacteria to form multicellular spore filled fruiting bodies under starvation conditions was widely studied as a model for cooperative microbial behavior. The potential of a life cycle induced change of secondary metabolism, as a means to discover novel natural products, remains largely underexplored. We therefore studied the model organism Myxococcus xanthus DK1622 under submersed and solid cultivation conditions to find putatively life-cycle related compounds by applying statistical analysis on analytical data. Utilizing the advantageous characteristics of LC-MS, LC-MS/MS, and MALDI-MSI allowed the identification of compounds unambiguously associated with myxobacterial fruiting bodies. Our screening effort resulted in the purification and structure elucidation of a novel compound, the homospermidine lipid, from cultures that had undergone the fruiting process. A combination of molecular networking and targeted LC-MS/MS in conjunction with our in-house metabolomics database subsequently revealed alternative producers of the respective compound as well as a number of compounds belonging to the same structural class. Three further members of this compound class were isolated from an alternative producer and structurally elucidated by NMR. Insights into the biosynthesis of this novel compound class was gained by feeding of isotopically labeled substrates and in silico analysis.

Abstract
Cholesterol is an essential component of mammalian membranes and is known to induce a series of physicochemical changes in the lipid bilayer. Such changes include the formation of liquid-ordered phases with an increased thickness and a configurational order as compared to liquid-disordered phases. For saturated lipid membranes, cholesterol molecules localize close to the lipid head group-tail interface. However, the presence of polyunsaturated lipids was recently shown to promote relocation of cholesterol toward the inner interface between the two bilayer leaflets. Here, neutron reflection is used to study the location of cholesterol (both non-deuterated and per-deuterated versions are used) within supported lipid bilayers composed of a natural mixture of phosphatidylcholine (PC). The lipids were produced in a genetically modified strain of Escherichia coli and grown under specific deuterated conditions to give an overall neutron scattering length density (which depends on the level of deuteration) of the lipids matching that of D2O. The combination of solvent contrast variation method with specific deuteration shows that cholesterol is located closer to the lipid head group-tail interface in this natural PC extract rather than in the center of the core of the bilayer as seen for very thin or polyunsaturated membranes.

Abstract
The influence of cumulus cells (CC) on the lipid profile of bovine oocytes matured in two different lipid sources was investigated. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) or denuded oocytes (DO) were matured in tissue culture medium (TCM) supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS) or serum substitute supplement (SSS). Lipid profiles of TCM, serum supplements, immature CC and oocyte (IO), and in vitro-matured oocytes from COC and DO were then analyzed by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) and submitted to partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). The developmental competence of such oocytes was also assessed. Differences in lipid composition were observed between two types of sera and distinctly influenced the lipid profile of CC. As revealed by PLS-DA, the abundance of specific ions corresponding to triacylglycerols (TAG) or phospholipids (PL) were higher in COC compared to DO both supplemented with FBS or SSS and to some extent affected the subsequent DO in vitro embryo development. DO exposed to SSS had however a marked diminished ability to develop to the blastocyst stage. These results indicate a modulation by CC of the oocyte TAG and PL profiles associated with a specific cell response to the serum supplement used for in vitro maturation.

Abstract
Purification, characterization, and antioxidative activity in vitro of shrimp phosphatidylcholines (PCs) were investigated. The molecular structures of shrimp PCs were determined by MALDI-TOF/TOF MS. The MS2 fragments produced from protonated PC precursors and sodiated PC precursors were identified. The specific fragments including [M + Na - trimethylamine]+, [M + Na - 205]+, [M + Na - RCOOH - trimethylamine]+, and [M + H - RCOOH - trimethylamine]+ could distinguish the precursor type to confirm PC molecular structures. The antioxidative activities of purified shrimp PC fractions were evaluated by assay of DPPH free radical scavenging activity, and their effects on the oxidative stability of camellia oil were measured by monitoring changes in the peroxide value assay during oxidation. The PC fractions from Penaeus chinesis and Macrobranchium nipponense showed stronger antioxidative activities than those of other species. All of the shrimp PCs at 0.2% (w/w) improved the oxidative stability of camellia oil significantly (P < 0.05) compared to controls. The experimental findings suggest that shrimp PCs might be a valuable source of natural antioxidants for edible oils or other food dispersions.
