Abstract
NMR spectroscopy has been applied to cells and tissues analysis since its beginnings, as early as 1950. We have attempted to gather here in a didactic fashion the broad diversity of data and ideas that emerged from NMR investigations on living cells. Covering a large proportion of the periodic table, NMR spectroscopy permits scrutiny of a great variety of atomic nuclei in all living organisms non-invasively. It has thus provided quantitative information on cellular atoms and their chemical environment, dynamics, or interactions. We will show that NMR studies have generated valuable knowledge on a vast array of cellular molecules and events, from water, salts, metabolites, cell walls, proteins, nucleic acids, drugs and drug targets, to pH, redox equilibria and chemical reactions. The characterization of such a multitude of objects at the atomic scale has thus shaped our mental representation of cellular life at multiple levels, together with major techniques like mass-spectrometry or microscopies. NMR studies on cells has accompanied the developments of MRI and metabolomics, and various subfields have flourished, coined with appealing names: fluxomics, foodomics, MRI and MRS (i.e. imaging and localized spectroscopy of living tissues, respectively), whole-cell NMR, on-cell ligand-based NMR, systems NMR, cellular structural biology, in-cell NMR… All these have not grown separately, but rather by reinforcing each other like a braided trunk. Hence, we try here to provide an analytical account of a large ensemble of intricately linked approaches, whose integration has been and will be key to their success. We present extensive overviews, firstly on the various types of information provided by NMR in a cellular environment (the "why", oriented towards a broad readership), and secondly on the employed NMR techniques and setups (the "how", where we discuss the past, current and future methods). Each subsection is constructed as a historical anthology, showing how the intrinsic properties of NMR spectroscopy and its developments structured the accessible knowledge on cellular phenomena. Using this systematic approach, we sought i) to make this review accessible to the broadest audience and ii) to highlight some early techniques that may find renewed interest. Finally, we present a brief discussion on what may be potential and desirable developments in the context of integrative studies in biology.

NMR characterization and evaluation of antibacterial and antiobiofilm activity of organic extracts from stationary phase batch cultures of five marine microalgae (Dunaliella sp., D. salina, Chaetoceros calcitrans, C. gracilis and Tisochrysis lutea). PHYTOCHEMISTRY 2019; 164:192-205. [PMID: 31174083 DOI: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2019.05.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2019] [Revised: 04/11/2019] [Accepted: 05/06/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The chemical composition of five marine microalgae (Dunaliella sp., Dunaliella salina, Chaetoceros calcitrans, Chaetoceros gracilis and Tisochrysis lutea) was investigated through nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic study of the soluble material obtained by sequential extraction with hexane, ethyl acetate (AcOEt) and methanol of biomass from stationary phase cultures. Hexane extracted the major lipids present in the microalgae during the stationary phase of growth, which correspond to storage lipids. Triacylglycerols (TGs) were the only storage lipids produced by Dunaliella and Chaetoceros. In contrast, T. lutea predominantly stored polyunsaturated long-chain alkenones, with sterols also detected as minor components of the hexane extract. The molecular structure of brassicasterol was determined in T. lutea and the presence of squalene in this sample was also unequivocally detected. Monogalactosyldiacylglycerols (MGDGs) and pigments were concentrated in the AcOEt extracts. C. calcitrans and D. salina constituted an exception due to the high amount of TGs and glycerol produced, respectively, by these two strains. Chlorophylls a and b and β-carotene were the major pigments synthesized by Dunaliella and chlorophyll a and fucoxanthin were the only pigments detected in Chaetoceros and T. lutea. Information concerning the acyl chains present in TGs and MGDGs as well as the positional distribution of acyl chains on the glycerol moiety was obtained by NMR analysis of hexane and AcOEt extracts, with results consistent with those expected for the genera studied. Fatty acid composition of TGs in the two Dunaliella strains was different, with polyunsaturated acyl chains almost absent in the storage lipids produced by D. salina. Except in C. calcitrans, the polar nature of soluble compounds was inferred through the relative extraction yield using methanol as the extraction solvent. Glycerol was the major component of this fraction for the Dunaliella strains. In T. lutea 1,4/2,5-cyclohexanetetrol (CHT) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) preponderated. CHT was also the major polyol present in the Chaetoceros strains in which DMSP was not detected, but prominent signals of 2,3-dihydroxypropane-1-sulfonate (DHSP) were observed in the 1H NMR spectra of methanolic extracts. The presence of DHSP confirms the production of this metabolite by diatoms. In addition, several other minor compounds (digalactosyldiacyglycerols (DGDGs), sulphoquinovosyldiacylglycerols (SQDGs), amino acids, carbohydrates, scyllo-inositol, mannitol, lactic acid and homarine) were also identified in the methanolic extracts. The antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of the extracts were tested. The AcOEt extract from C. gracilis showed a moderate antibiofilm activity.

1H HR-MAS NMR spectroscopy to study the metabolome of the protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia. Talanta 2018; 188:429-441.

Abstract
Knowledge of the metabolic profile and exchange processes in the protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia is of importance for a better understanding of the biochemical processes and for the development of drugs to control diseases caused by G. lamblia. In the current paper, 1H High Resolution Magic Angle Spinning (HR-MAS) NMR spectroscopy was directly applied to G. lamblia trophozoite suspensions to analyze the detectable small metabolites with a minimum of intervention. Thirty-one components were identified with main contributions from amino acids such as alanine and ornithine. The reproducibility, variability, and stability of the metabolites were investigated. Citrulline was found to be formed as an intermediate and citrulline levels depended on the stage of cell growth. Glucose-1-phosphate was found to be formed in relatively high amounts after cell harvesting if enzymes were not inactivated. In addition, the metabolic footprint of Giardia trophozoites, i.e. changes in the culture medium induced by G. lamblia, was investigated by liquid state NMR spectroscopy of culture media before and after inoculation. A quantitative comparison of the NMR spectra revealed component changes in the culture media during growth. The results suggested that not glucose but rather arginine serves as main energy supply. Biochemical functions of intracellular components and their metabolic exchange with the culture medium are discussed. The results provide an important basis for the design of HR-MAS NMR based metabolomic studies of G. lamblia in particular and any protozoan parasite samples in general.

Abstract
β-Glucans are a group of biologically-active fibers or polysaccharides from natural sources with proven medical significance. β-Glucans are known to have antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, anti-allergic, anti-osteoporotic, and immunomodulating activities. β-Glucans are natural bioactive compounds and can be taken orally, as a food supplement, or as part of a daily diet, and are considered safe to use. The medical significance and efficiency of β-glucans are confirmed in vitro, as well as using animal- and human-based clinical studies. However, systematic study on the clinical and physiological significance of β-glucans is scarce. In this review, we not only discuss the clinical and physiological importance of β-glucans, we also compare their biological activities through the existing in vitro and animal-based in vivo studies. This review provides extensive data on the clinical study of β-glucans.

Abstract
Lignocellulose, which includes mainly cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, is a potential resource for the production of chemicals and for other applications. For effective production of materials derived from biomass, it is important to characterize the metabolites and polymeric components of the biomass. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been used to identify biomass components; however, the NMR spectra of metabolites and lignocellulose components are ambiguously assigned in many cases due to overlapping chemical shift peaks. Using our 13C-labeling technique in higher plants such as poplar samples, we demonstrated that overlapping peaks could be resolved by three-dimensional NMR experiments to more accurately assign chemical shifts compared with two-dimensional NMR measurements. Metabolites of the 13C-poplar were measured by high-resolution magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy, which allows sample analysis without solvent extraction, while lignocellulose components of the 13C-poplar dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide/pyridine solvent were analyzed by solution-state NMR techniques. Using these methods, we were able to unambiguously assign chemical shifts of small and macromolecular components in 13C-poplar samples. Furthermore, using samples of less than 5 mg, we could differentiate between two kinds of genes that were overexpressed in poplar samples, which produced clearly modified plant cell wall components.

Abstract
A new chrysolaminarin, named CL2, with a molecular mass of 7.75 kDa, was purified from the marine diatom, Odontella aurita, using DEAE-52 cellulose anion-exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-200 gel-filtration chromatography. The monosaccharide and structural analysis revealed that CL2 was a glucan mainly composed of glucose, which was linked by the β-d-(1→3) (main chain) and β-d-(1→6) (side chain) glycosidic bond, demonstrated by infrared spectroscopy (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The antioxidant activity tests revealed that the CL2 presented stronger hydroxyl radical scavenging activity with increasing concentrations, but less was effective on reducing power analysis and scavenging 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. The influences of nitrogen concentration and light intensity on chrysolaminarin production of O. aurita were further investigated in a glass column photobioreactor, and a record high chrysolaminarin productivity of 306 mg L-1 day-1 was achieved. In conclusion, the chrysolaminarin CL2 from O. aurita may be explored as a natural antioxidant agent for application in aquaculture, food and pharmaceutical areas.

Abstract
In this contribution, the latest developments in solid state NMR are presented in the field of organic-inorganic (O/I) materials (or hybrid materials). Such materials involve mineral and organic (including polymeric and biological) components, and can exhibit complex O/I interfaces. Hybrids are currently a major topic of research in nanoscience, and solid state NMR is obviously a pertinent spectroscopic tool of investigation. Its versatility allows the detailed description of the structure and texture of such complex materials. The article is divided in two main parts: in the first one, recent NMR methodological/instrumental developments are presented in connection with hybrid materials. In the second part, an exhaustive overview of the major classes of O/I materials and their NMR characterization is presented.

Abstract
High-resolution magic-angle spinning (HR-MAS) NMR was developed in late 1990s, and it has evolved quickly for the study of a variety of biological matrixes. Recently, it has been used as an effective means to study the cell wall structures of intact bacteria. (1)H-(13)C heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) HR-MAS NMR can provide rapid analysis of the cell wall structure in live bacterial cells, thus allowing observation of drug effects, gene mutation, species differentiation, and environmental effects. However, this rapid analysis is dependent on having an established framework of HR-MAS NMR experiments and a detailed assignment of the whole-cell NMR spectra. This study examines parameters and describes strategies for the effective application of 2D and 3D HR-MAS NMR techniques to assign and study bacterial cell wall structures using Mycobacterium smegmatis as a model organism. Important parameters for successful whole-cell HR-MAS NMR studies, including pulse sequences, rotor synchronization, acquisition times, labeling strategies, temperature, number of cells, and cell viability, are described. A four-prong approach is presented for assignment of the complex whole-cell spectra, including the use of 3D HCCH-TOCSY and HCCH-COSY HR-MAS NMR.

Abstract
The chrysolaminaran from the marine diatom Chaetoceros debilis was isolated and characterized by NMR spectroscopy. Cells were harvested in the stationary phase of growth after the medium had been depleted of nitrate when the chrysolaminaran content was expected to be at its highest. The chrysolaminaran was isolated with an yield of 17.5 mg/L, which corresponds to 15.8 pg/cell. 1H NMR indicated that the structure was similar to that of a beta-(1-->3) main chain with beta-(1-->6)-linked side chains. The degree of polymerization was found to be 30, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 4900. Thirty-three percent of the residues were found to be beta-(1-->6)-linked branches. The characteristics of the beta-(1-->6) branching were examined by NOESY NMR, which suggested pustulan-like branches, being beta-(1-->6) linked chains connected to the main chain with few branch points. Confirmation of the 1H NMR data was done by 13C-DEPT, TOCSY, COSY and HMQC NMR spectroscopy. The assignment of the resonances of the main beta-(1-->3) and beta-(1-->6) chains is presented. The structure proposed from our analyses is compared against other chrysolaminaran structures.

Carbohydr Res 2005; 340:1159-64. [PMID: 15797131 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2004.12.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2004] [Accepted: 12/28/2004] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
We have investigated the content and structure of the chrysolaminarans isolated from the two marine diatoms Chaetoceros mülleri and Thalassiosira weissflogii. Samples were taken from different phases of growth, and the structure of the chrysolaminaran was seen in relation to the specific growth rate of the diatoms. The structure determined for the glucan from C. mülleri was found not to vary with different specific growth rates. T. weissflogii showed some variance in the structure, both throughout the different stages of growth and between samples taken from the stationary phase. C. mülleri was found to have a chrysolaminaran with a degree of polymerization (DP) of 22-24 and a degree of beta-(1-->6) branching of 0.006-0.009. These results corresponded well with previous results obtained in our laboratories. The chrysolaminaran isolated from T. weissflogii was found to have a DP of 5-13 and no beta-(1-->6) branching. This is to our knowledge the first characterization of the chrysolaminaran from T. weissflogii.
