Abstract
Liposomes are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as drug delivery systems to increase the efficacy and reduce the off-target toxicity of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The liposomes are more complex drug delivery systems than the traditional dosage forms, and phospholipids and cholesterol are the major structural excipients. These two excipients undergo hydrolysis and/or oxidation during liposome preparation and storage, resulting in lipids hydrolyzed products (LHPs) and cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) in the final liposomal formulations. These excipient-related impurities at elevated concentrations may affect liposome stability and exert biological functions. This review focuses on LHPs and COPs, two major categories of excipient-related impurities in the liposomal formulations, and discusses factors affecting their formation, and analytical methods to determine these excipient-related impurities.

Abstract
Dioscoreae Rhizoma (Chinese yam; derived from the rhizome of Dioscorea opposita Thunb.) (DR), commonly consumed as a food or supplement, is often sulfur-fumigated during post-harvest handling, but it remains largely unknown if and how sulfur fumigation impacts the chemistry of DR. In this study, we report the impact of sulfur fumigation on the chemical profile of DR and then the molecular and cellular mechanisms potentially involved in the chemical variations induced by sulfur fumigation. The results show that sulfur fumigation significantly and specifically changed the small metabolites (molecular weight lower than 1000 Da) and polysaccharides of DR at both qualitative and quantitative levels. Multifaceted molecular and cellular mechanisms involving chemical transformations (e.g., acidic hydrolysis, sulfonation, and esterification) and histological damage were found to be responsible for the chemical variations in sulfur-fumigated DR (S-DR). The research outcomes provide a chemical basis for further comprehensive and in-depth safety and functional evaluations of sulfur-fumigated DR.

Arachidonic Acid Cascade and Eicosanoid Production Are Elevated While LTC4 Synthase Modulates the Lipidomics Profile in the Brain of the HIVgp120-Transgenic Mouse Model of NeuroHIV. Cells 2022; 11:2123.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has transformed HIV infection from a terminal disease to a manageable chronic health condition, extending patients' life expectancy to that of the general population. However, the incidence of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HANDs) has persisted despite virological suppression. Patients with HIV display persistent signs of immune activation and inflammation despite cART. The arachidonic acid (AA) cascade is an important immune response system responsible for both pro- and anti-inflammatory processes. METHODS Lipidomics, mRNA and Western blotting analysis provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms surrounding arachidonic acid metabolism and the resulting inflammation caused by perturbations thereof. RESULTS Here, we report the presence of inflammatory eicosanoids in the brains of a transgenic mouse model of NeuroHIV that expresses soluble HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein in glial cells (HIVgp120tg mice). Additionally, we report that the effect of LTC4S knockout in HIVgp120tg mice resulted in the sexually dimorphic transcription of COX- and 5-LOX-related genes. Furthermore, the absence of LTC4S suppressed ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling activity in female mice only. The mass spectrometry-based lipidomic profiling of these mice reveals beneficial alterations to lipids in the brain. CONCLUSION Targeting the AA cascade may hold potential in the treatment of neuroinflammation observed in NeuroHIV and HANDs.

Abstract
Previous studies have evaluated pork quality by omics methods. However, proteomics coupled with metabolomics to investigate pork freshness by using pork exudates has not been reported. This study determined the changes in the profiles of peptides and metabolites in exudates from pork stored at different temperatures (25, 10, 4, and −2 °C). Multivariate statistical analysis revealed similar changes in profiles in exudates collected from pork stored at −2 and 4 °C, and additional changes following storage at higher temperatures. We identified peptides from 7 proteins and 30 metabolites differing in abundance between fresh and spoiled pork. Significant correlations between pork quality and most of the peptides from these 7 proteins and 30 metabolites were found. The present study provides insight into changes in the peptide and metabolite profiles of exudates from pork during storage at different temperatures, and our analysis suggests that such changes can be used as markers of pork spoilage.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to study the changes of lipids in salmon muscle stored at 4 °C for different storage times to explore the relationship between lipid composition and salmon freshness. Ninety-two kinds of lipid changes were observed at three different storage times (5, 10, and 15 days) compared with the fresh control group (0 day). Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the contents of four lipids were significantly increased from the tenth day, namely, lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) (17:0), LPC (18:0), LPC (22:2), and phosphatidylcholine (PC) (18:4/16:1). LPC (17:0) and LPC (18:0) are produced by PC (18:4/16:1) hydrolysis. The traditional freshness index also showed that the salmon slices were in the initial state of spoilage on the tenth day. Therefore, they may be indicators of raw salmon freshness.

Abstract
The uncontrolled activation of endogenous enzymes may introduce both qualitative and quantitative artefacts when lipids are extracted from vegetal matrices. In the present study, a method based on hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled either to high-resolution/accuracy Fourier-transform mass spectrometry (HILIC-ESI-FTMS) or to linear ion trap multiple stage mass spectrometry (HILIC-ESI-MSn , with n = 2 and 3) with electrospray ionization was developed to unveil one of those artefacts. Specifically, the artificial generation of methyl esters of phosphatidic acids (MPA), catalysed by endogenous phospholipase D (PLD) during lipid extraction from five oleaginous microgreen crops (chia, soy, flax, sunflower and rapeseed), was studied. Phosphatidylcholines (PC) and phosphatidylglycerols (PG) were found to be the most relevant precursors of MPA among glycerophospholipids (GPLs), being involved in a transphosphatidylation process catalysed by PLD and having methanol as a coreactant. The combination of MS2 and MS3 measurements enabled the unambiguous recognition of MPA from their fragmentation pathways, leading to distinguish them from isobaric PA including a further CH2 group on their side chains. PLD was also found to catalyse the hydrolysis of PC and PG to phosphatidic acids (PAs). The described transformations were confirmed by the remarkable decrease of MPA abundance observed when isopropanol, known to inhibit PLD, was tentatively adopted instead of water during the homogenization of microgreens. The unequivocal identification of MPA might be exploited to assess if GPL alterations are actually triggered by endogenous PLD during lipid extractions from specific vegetal tissues.

Abstract
In the past decade, hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) has emerged as an efficient alternative to reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) for the analysis of phospholipid (PL) mixtures based on mass spectrometric detection. Since the separation of PL by HILIC is chiefly based on their headgroup, the mass spectrum of each class can be obtained by spectral averaging under the corresponding HILIC band. Using experimental m/z values resulting from high mass resolution/accuracy instruments, the sum compositions of PL in a specific class can be thus inferred but partial overlapping may occur between signals related to the M + 0 isotopologue of one species and the M + 2/M + 4 isotopologues of species having one/two more C═C bonds in their chemical structures. Here, an automated workflow, named LIPIC (lipid isotopic pattern interference correction), is proposed to account for such interferences. Starting from the experimentally verified assumption that peaks in isotope patterns are Gaussian, LIPIC predicts, as a function of m/z ratio, signal intensities due to M + 2 and M + 4 isotopologues of species with one or two more C = C bonds than the target one and calculates the corrected intensity for the M + 0 isotopologue of the latter. Thanks to an iterative procedure, the suggested algorithm compensates also for slight shifts occurring between experimental and theoretical m/z ratios related to isotopologue peaks. Examples of applications to simulated and experimental mass spectra of two PL classes, i.e., phosphatidylcholines (PC) and cardiolipins (CL), emphasize the increased extent of correction at the increase of molecular masses of involved species.

Abstract
In this paper, a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry (MS) (MALDI-FTICR-MS) imaging method was developed to rapid and in situ detect the spatial distribution of lysophospholipids (LPLs) in zebrafish. The combination of MALDI with ultrahigh-resolution FTICR-MS achieves the MS imaging of LPLs with a mass resolution up to 50 000, which allows accurate identification and clear spatial visualization of LPLs in complex biological tissues. A series of lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) was detected using positive ion detection mode, and their concentration differences and spatial distributions were clearly visualized in different parts of zebrafish tissue. The method is rapid, simple, and efficient, being a desirable way to understand the spatial distribution of LPLs in biosome.

Abstract
An extensive characterization and quantification of intact phospholipids (PLs) in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa cv San Andreas) seed and pulp was carried out by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and electrospray ionization (ESI) coupled to either Fourier-transform (FT) orbital-trap or linear ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (LIT-MS/MS). More than 150 intact polar lipids including phosphatidylcholines (PCs), phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs), phosphatidylglycerols (PGs), phosphatidic acids (PAs), phosphatidylinositols (PIs), lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs), and lysophosphatidylethanolamines (LPEs) were identified in negative ESI mode. PC 18:2/18:2 and 18:2/18:3 were found to be the major components of strawberry lipid extracts at concentrations of 230 ± 36 and 189 ± 32 μg/g, respectively, in seeds and at concentrations of 330 ± 50 and 140 ± 22 μg/g, respectively, in pulp. The lipidic extracts of both strawberry seeds and pulp exhibited the dominance of LPC 16:0/0:0 at a content of 132 ± 19 and 114 ± 16 μg/g, respectively, and LPC 0:0/18:2 at 236 ± 20 and 150 ± 20 μg/g, respectively. The other most abundant species of strawberry seeds and pulp were PE 18:2/18:2, 40 ± 9 and 190 ± 40 μg/g, followed by PI 16:0/18:2, 51 ± 15 and 24 ± 8 μg/g, respectively, while PG, PA, and LPE show comparable abundance below 10 μg/g. The most recurrent fatty acyl substituents of PLs were C18:3 (α-linolenic acid), C18:2 (linoleic acid), C18:1 (oleic acid), C18:0 (stearic acid), C16:0 (palmitic acid), and relatively high contents of a shorter chain such as C14:0 (myristic acid).

Abstract
Alzheimer disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia, is a progressive disorder involving cognitive impairment, loss of learning and memory, and neurodegeneration affecting wide areas of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. AD is characterized by altered lipid metabolism in the brain. Lower concentrations of long-chain PUFAs have been described in the frontal cortex, entorhinal cortex, and hippocampus in the brain in AD. The brain can synthesize only a few fatty acids; thus, most fatty acids must enter the brain from the blood. Recent studies show that PUFAs such as DHA (22:6) are transported across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in the form of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) via a specific LPC receptor at the BBB known as the sodium-dependent LPC symporter 1 (MFSD2A). Higher dietary PUFA intake is associated with decreased risk of cognitive decline and dementia in observational studies; however, PUFA supplementation, with fatty acids esterified in triacylglycerols did not prevent cognitive decline in clinical trials. Recent studies show that LPC is the preferred carrier of PUFAs across the BBB into the brain. An insufficient pool of circulating LPC containing long-chain fatty acids could potentially limit the supply of long-chain fatty acids to the brain, including PUFAs such as DHA, and play a role in the pathobiology of AD. Whether adults with low serum LPC concentrations are at greater risk of developing cognitive decline and AD remains a major gap in knowledge. Preventing and treating cognitive decline and the development of AD remain a major challenge. The LPC pathway is a promising area for future investigators to identify modifiable risk factors for AD.

Abstract
Lipidomics suffers from the lack of fast and reproducible tools to obtain both structural information on intact phospholipids (PL) and fatty acyl chain composition. Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization coupled to an orbital-trap Fourier-transform analyzer operating using all ion fragmentation mode (HILIC-ESI-FTMS-AIF MS) is seemingly a valuable resource in this respect. Here, accurate m/z values, HILIC retention times and AIF MS scan data were combined for PL assignment in standard mixtures or real lipid extracts. AIF scans in both positive and negative ESI mode, achieved using collisional induced dissociation for fragmentation, were applied to identify both the head-group of each PL class and the fatty acyl chains, respectively. An advantage of the AIF approach was the concurrent collection of tandem MS-like data, enabling the identification of linked fatty acyl chains of precursor phospholipids through the corresponding carboxylate anions. To illustrate the ability of AIF in the field of lipidomics, two different types of real samples, i.e., the lipid extracts obtained from human plasma and dermal fibroblasts, were examined. Using AIF scans, a total of 253 intact lipid species and 18 fatty acids across 4 lipid classes were recognized in plasma samples, while FA C20:3 was confirmed as the fatty acyl chain belonging to phosphatidylinositol, PI 38:3, which was found to be down-regulated in fibroblast samples of Parkinson's disease patients.

Analysis of Phospholipids, Lysophospholipids, and Their Linked Fatty Acyl Chains in Yellow Lupin Seeds ( Lupinus luteus L.) by Liquid Chromatography and Tandem Mass Spectrometry. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25040805. [PMID: 32069835 PMCID: PMC7070507 DOI: 10.3390/molecules25040805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2020] [Revised: 02/11/2020] [Accepted: 02/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and electrospray ionization (ESI) coupled to either Fourier-transform (FT) orbital-trap or linear ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (LIT-MS/MS) was used to characterize the phospholipidome of yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus) seeds. Phosphatidylcholines (PC) were the most abundant species (41 ± 6%), which were followed by lyso-forms LPC (30 ± 11%), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE, 13 ± 4%), phosphatidylglycerols (PG, 5.1 ± 1.7%), phosphatidic acids (PA, 4.9 ± 1.8%), phosphatidylinositols (PI, 4.7 ± 1.1%), and LPE (1.2 ± 0.5%). The occurrence of both isomeric forms of several LPC and LPE was inferred by a well-defined fragmentation pattern observed in negative ion mode. An unprecedented characterization of more than 200 polar lipids including 52 PC, 42 PE, 42 PA, 35 PG, 16 LPC, 13 LPE, and 10 PI, is reported. The most abundant fatty acids (FA) as esterified acyl chains in PL were 18:1 (oleic), 18:2 (linoleic), 16:0 (palmitic), and 18:3 (linolenic) with relatively high contents of long fatty acyl chains such as 22:0 (behenic), 24:0 (lignoceric), 20:1 (gondoic), and 22:1 (erucic). Their occurrence was confirmed by reversed-phase (RP) LC-ESI-FTMS analysis of a chemically hydrolyzed sample extract in acid conditions at 100 °C for 45 min.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of neural changes causing cerebral impairment is critical for proposing preventive therapies for Parkinson’s disease (PD). Biomarkers currently available cannot be informative of PD onset since they are characterized by analysing post-mortem tissues from patients with severe degeneration of the substantia nigra. Skin fibroblasts (SF) are now recognized as a useful model of primary human cells, capable of reflecting the chronological and biological aging of the subjects. Here a lipidomic study of easily accessible primary SF is presented, based on hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization and mass spectrometry (HILIC/ESI-MS). Phospholipids (PL) from dermal fibroblasts of five PD patients with different parkin mutations and healthy control SF were characterized by single and tandem MS measurements using a hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap and a linear ion trap mass analysers. The proposed approach enabled the identification of more than 360 PL. Univariate statistical analyses highlight abnormality of PL metabolism in the PD group, suggesting down- or up-regulation of certain species according to the extent of disease progression. These findings, although preliminary, suggest that the phospholipidome of human SF represents a source of potential biomarkers for the early diagnosis of PD. The dysregulation of ethanolamine plasmalogens in the circulatory system, especially those containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), might be likely associated with neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HRMS) was applied to the detection of lipid species in the lipid extracts of farmed salmon samples collected from a local retailer and analyzed right after the purchase and after storage for 4 and 6 days under refrigerated conditions. The recognition of type and composition of lipids detected in DART-HRMS spectra was performed by using the relevant accurate m/z data (accuracy better than 5 ppm) as input for a search on the LipidMaps database. As a result, several fatty acids (FA), either saturated or mono-/poly-unsaturated, and triacylglycerols (TAG) were recognized in the three types of samples from the corresponding negative and positive ion DART-HRMS spectra, respectively. Following, spectral intensities were exploited to monitor the evolution of selected FA and TAG during the refrigeration of salmon meat. In particular, after 4 days of refrigeration, a statistically significant increase was recorded for FA with side chain compositions 18:2, 18:1, 20:5, and 22:6 despite a significant decrease found for TAG with overall side chain compositions 50:4, 52:5, 52:4, and 52:3 after the same time. These evolutions were consistent with a general model already proposed for the effect of low temperature treatments on seafood, implying the action of endogenous lipases, with consequent increase of the free FA amount and decrease in glycerophospholipids and triglycerides contents. The described results indicate DART-HRMS as a promising MS-based rapid tool for the assessment of fish, or other seafood, freshness.

Abstract
Low temperature treatments commonly applied to seafood products have been shown to influence their phospholipid (PL) profile through enzymatic hydrolysis. In the present study, the generation of lysophospholipids (LPL) resulting from this process was systematically investigated for selected, commercially relevant seafood products, namely oysters, clams, octopuses, and shrimps. These products were subjected to thermal treatments like refrigeration or freezing after being purchased as fresh, defrozen, or frozen products depending on the case. The coupling between hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and electrospray ionization with high resolution/accuracy Fourier transform mass spectrometry (ESI-FTMS) was exploited to evaluate the PL profile of the cited products, especially the incidence of LPL related to the two main PL classes of seafood products—phosphatidylcholines (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamines (PE)—in the lipid extracts. The lyso forms of PE (LPE) were found to be generally more sensitive than those of PC (LPC) to thermal treatments, usually exhibiting a significant increase upon prolonged refrigeration at 4 °C in all types of investigated products except European flat oysters. Moreover, the distinction between fresh and frozen or defrozen products could be achieved in the case of octopuses and shrimps, respectively.

Abstract
Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to negative-ion electrospray linear ion-trap multiple-stage MS (HILIC-ESI-MSn , n = 2,3) was used to characterize polar lipids occurring in donkey milk. Besides the detection of abundant phospholipids, the structural characterization and content evaluation of minor glycosphingolipids (GSLs) were assessed. We report an unprecedented characterization of 11 hexosyl-ceramides (HexCer), 10 Hex2 Cer, and 4 Hex3 Cer. CID-MS/MS spectra in negative ion mode mainly afford information on the monosaccharide number and ceramide constitution (i.e., N-acyl residue and long-chain base), whereas MS/MS/MS spectra on the ceramide anions allow to recognize for each GSL the sphingoid base. The occurrence of sphingosine (S), sphinganine (DS), and phytosphingosine (P) was inferred from the fragmentation patterns. The milk samples exhibit a relatively high number of phytosphingosine substitutes, perhaps because of the feeding of donkeys, mainly based on pasture grass. However, the incidence of hydroxylated species on the α-carbon of the acyl chain was also revealed. The fatty acid composition of N-acyl chains showed high values of long-chain saturated fatty acids such as 20:0, 22:0, 23:0, and 24:0. An average content of GSL is also provided and three representative mono-, di-, and tri-HexCer in donkey milk are the following: HexCer 18:0/24:1 phytosphingosine nonhydroxylated [PN] at m/z 862.6 as chloride adduct [M+Cl]- , and content 225.9 ± 2.8 μg 100 mL-1 ; Hex2 Cer 18:0/16:0 sphinganine nonhydroxylated [DSN] at m/z 862.7 as deprotonated adduct [M-H]- , and content 70.8 ± 1.4 μg 100 mL-1 ; and Hex3 Cer 18:1/24:1 [SN] at m/z 1132.8 as [M-H]- , and content 38.5 ± 0.7 μg 100 mL-1 .

Abstract
A systematic characterization of phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanolamines in mussels of sp Mytilus galloprovincialis was performed by high-efficiency hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography combined with electrospray ionization and Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS), based on a quadrupole-Orbitrap hybrid spectrometer. The FTMS/MS experiments under high collisional energy dissociation conditions, complemented by low-energy collisionally induced dissociation MSn (n = 2,3) experiments, performed in a linear ion trap mass spectrometer, were exploited for structural elucidation purposes. The described approach led to an unprecedented characterization of the mussel phospholipidome, with 185 phosphatidylcholines and 131 phosphatidylethanolamines species recognized, distributed among diacylic, plasmanylic, and plasmenylic forms. This was the starting point for the evaluation of the effects of season (in particular, of sea temperature) on the profile of those phospholipids. To this aim, a set of mussel samples retrieved from commercial sources in different periods of the year was considered. Principal component analysis revealed a clear separation between samples collected in periods characterized by cold, intermediate, or warm sea temperatures, respectively. In particular, an enrichment in phospholipids containing unsaturated side chains was observed in mussels collected from cold seawaters (winter-early spring), thus confirming the general model previously elaborated to explain the adaptation of marine invertebrates, including some bivalve molluscs, to low temperatures. On the other hand, relevant levels of plasma(e)nylic and acylic phospholipids bearing either saturated or non-methylene-interrupted side chains were found in mussels collected in warm seawaters (typical of summer and early autumn, at Italian latitudes). This finding opened interesting perspectives towards the development of strategies able to prevent global warming-related mussel losses in aquacultural plants.

Abstract
A hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) fused-core column (150×2.1mm ID, 2.7μm particle size) and a short reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) column (20mm×2.1mm ID, 1.9μm) were serially coupled to perform mixed-mode chromatography (MMC) on complex mixtures of phospholipids (PL). Mobile phase composition and gradient elution program were, preliminarily, optimized using a mixture of phosphatidylcholines (PC), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), their corresponding lyso-forms (LPC and LPE), and sphingomyelins (SM). Thus a mixture of PC extracted from soybean was characterized by MMC coupled to electrospray ionization (ESI) high-resolution Fourier-transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) using an orbital trap analyzer. Several previously undiscovered PC, including positional isomers (i.e. 16:0/19:1 and 19:1/16:0) of PC 35:1 and skeletal isomers (i.e. 18:1/18:2 and 18:0/18:3) of PC 36:3 were identified. Therefore, high-resolution MS/MS spectra unveiled the occurrence of isomers for several overall side chain compositions. The proposed MMC-ESI-FTMS/MS approach revealed an unprecedented capability in disclosing complexity of an actual lipid extract, thus representing a very promising approach to lipidomics.

Abstract
The confident identification and in-depth profiling of molecular lipid species remain to be a challenge in lipidomics analysis. In this work, an off-line two-dimensional mixed-mode and reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) method combined with high-field quadrupole orbitrap mass spectrometer (Q Exactive HF) was developed to profile lipids from complex biological samples. In the first dimension, 22 different lipid classes were separated on a monolithic silica column with elution order from neutral to polar lipids. A total of 13 fractions were collected and run on a RPLC C30 column in the second dimension for further separation of the lipid molecular species based on their hydrophobicity, with the elution order being determined by both the length and degree of unsaturation in the fatty-acyl chain. The method was applied to analyze lipids extracted from rat plasma and rat liver. Fatty acid methyl ester analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to identify the fatty acyls from total lipid extracts, which provided a more confident identification of the lipid species present in these samples. More than 800 lipids were identified in each sample and their molecular structures were confidentially confirmed using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The number of lipid molecular species identified in both rat plasma and rat liver by this off-line two-dimensional method is approximately twice of that by one-dimensional RPLC-MS/MS employing a C30 column. This off-line two-dimensional mixed-mode LC-RPLC-MS/MS method is a promising technique for comprehensive lipid profiling in complex biological matrices.

Ceramide lipids in alive and thermally stressed mussels: an investigation by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization Fourier transform mass spectrometry.

Abstract
Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization-Fourier transform mass spectrometry was employed to study ceramide lipids occurring in mussels of sp. Mytilus galloprovincialis. Lipid extracts from alive mussels and mussels deliberately subjected to specific thermal treatments were analyzed. In particular, single and tandem MS measurements were performed on a hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer and then complemented by MS(n) analyses (n = 2, 3) achieved by a linear ion trap mass spectrometer. This approach enabled the characterization of 66 ceramide lipids, encompassing ceramide phosphoethanolamines (CPE), ceramide aminoethylphosphonates (CAEP) and N-monomethylated CAEP. The sphingoid and acyl chains of each ceramide lipid could be distinctly recognized in terms of numbers of carbon atoms and C=C bonds, and indications on the possible location of the latter on the sphingoid chain could be often inferred from fragmentation patterns. The occurrence of several species hydroxylated on the α carbon of the acyl chain was also discovered. On the other hand, the sphingoid chain of ceramide lipids was never found to be involved in oxidation processes, unless forced exposure of the mussel lipid extracts to atmospheric oxygen was performed. CPE(d19:3/16:0) and its hydroxylated form, CPE(d19:3/2-OH-16:0), were found to be the prevailing species among CPE, whereas CAEP(d18:2/16:0), CAEP(d19:3/16:0) and CAEP(d19:3/2-OH-16:0) were the most abundant CAEP. Finally, ceramide lipids showed a remarkably higher stability, compared with glycerophospholipids, in mussels subjected to different thermal treatments. This finding opens interesting perspectives on the role of ceramide-based lipids in the adaptation of aquatic organisms to thermal stresses. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
This work aims to evaluate and compare, for the first time, the effects of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and hybrid palm oil (HPO) supplementation on the fatty acid profile and phospholipid (PL) molecular species composition of human erythrocyte membranes. Results supported the effectiveness of both HPO and EVOO supplementation (3 months, 25 mL/day) in decreasing the lipophilic index of erythrocytes with no significant differences between HPO and EVOO groups at month 3. On the other hand, the novel and rapid ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method used for PL analysis reveals an increase in the levels of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine species esterified with polyunsaturated fatty acids. This work demonstrates the ability of both EVOO and HPO to increase the degree of unsaturation of erythrocyte membrane lipids with an improvement in membrane fluidity that could be associated with a lower risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Metabolomics, along with other "omics" approaches, is rapidly becoming one of the major approaches aimed at understanding the organization and dynamics of metabolic networks. Mass spectrometry is often a technique of choice for metabolomics studies due to its high sensitivity, reproducibility and wide dynamic range. High resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) is a widely practiced technique in analytical and bioanalytical sciences. It offers exceptionally high resolution and the highest degree of structural confirmation. Many metabolomics studies have been conducted using HRMS over the past decade. In this review, we will explore the latest developments in Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) and Orbitrap based metabolomics technology, its advantages and drawbacks for using in metabolomics and lipidomics studies, and development of novel approaches for processing HRMS data.

Abstract
The goal of untargeted lipidomics is to have high throughput, yet comprehensive and unambiguous identification and quantification of lipids. Novel stationary phases in LC separation and new mass spectrometric instruments capable of high mass resolving power and faster scanning rate are essential to achieving this goal. In this work, 4 reversed phase LC columns coupled with a high field quadrupole orbitrap mass spectrometer (Q Exactive HF) were thoroughly compared using complex lipid standard mixture and rat plasma and liver samples. A good separation of all lipids was achieved in 24min of gradient. The columns compared include C30 and C18 functionalization on either core-shell or totally porous silica particles, with size ranging from 1.7 to 2.6μm. Accucore C30 column showed the narrowest peaks and highest theoretical plate number, and excellent peak capacity and retention time reproducibility (<1% standard deviation). As a result, it resulted in 430 lipid species identified from rat plasma and rat liver samples with highest confidence. The high resolution offered by the up-front RPLC allowed discrimination of cis/trans isomeric lipid species, and the high field orbitrap mass spectrometer afforded the clear distinction of isobaric lipid species in full scan MS and the unambiguous assignment of sn-positional isomers for lysophospholipids in MS/MS. Taken together, the high efficiency LC separation and high mass resolving MS analysis are very promising tools for untargeted lipidomics analysis.
