[PMID: 37958678 PMCID: PMC10649022 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242115693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Biological membranes, primarily composed of lipids, envelop each living cell. The intricate composition and organization of membrane lipids, including the variety of fatty acids they encompass, serve a dynamic role in sustaining cellular structural integrity and functionality. Typically, modifications in lipid composition coincide with consequential alterations in universally significant signaling pathways. Exploring the various fatty acids, which serve as the foundational building blocks of membrane lipids, provides crucial insights into the underlying mechanisms governing a myriad of cellular processes, such as membrane fluidity, protein trafficking, signal transduction, intercellular communication, and the etiology of certain metabolic disorders. Furthermore, comprehending how alterations in the lipid composition, especially concerning the fatty acid profile, either contribute to or prevent the onset of pathological conditions stands as a compelling area of research. Hence, this review aims to meticulously introduce the intricacies of membrane lipids and their constituent fatty acids in a healthy organism, thereby illuminating their remarkable diversity and profound influence on cellular function. Furthermore, this review aspires to highlight some potential therapeutic targets for various pathological conditions that may be ameliorated through dietary fatty acid supplements. The initial section of this review expounds on the eukaryotic biomembranes and their complex lipids. Subsequent sections provide insights into the synthesis, membrane incorporation, and distribution of fatty acids across various fractions of membrane lipids. The last section highlights the functional significance of membrane-associated fatty acids and their innate capacity to shape the various cellular physiological responses.

Abstract
This review paper highlights the recent research on liquid-phase microscale separation techniques for lipidome analysis over the last 10 years, mainly focusing on capillary liquid chromatography (LC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). Lipids are one of the most important classes of biomolecules which are involved in the cell membrane, energy storage, signal transduction, and so on. Since lipids include a variety of hydrophobic compounds including numerous structural isomers, lipidomes are a challenging target in bioanalytical chemistry. MS is the key technology that comprehensively identifies lipids; however, separation techniques like LC and CE are necessary prior to MS detection in order to avoid ionization suppression and resolve structural isomers. Separation techniques using μm-scale columns, such as a fused silica capillary and microfluidic device, are effective at realizing high-resolution separation. Microscale separation usually employs a nL-scale flow, which is also compatible with nanoelectrospray ionization-MS that achieves high sensitivity. Owing to such analytical advantages, microscale separation techniques like capillary/microchip LC and CE have been employed for more than 100 lipidome studies. Such techniques are still being evolved and achieving further higher resolution and wider coverage of lipidomes. Therefore, microscale separation techniques are promising as the fundamental technology in next-generation lipidome analysis.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is one of the most powerful tools in identifying and quantitating molecular species. Decreasing column diameter from the millimeter to micrometer scale is now a well-developed method which allows for sample limited analysis. Specific fabrication of capillary columns is required for proper implementation and optimization when working in the nanoflow regime. Coupling the capillary column to the mass spectrometer for electrospray ionization (ESI) requires reduction of the subsequent emitter tip. Reduction of column diameter to capillary scale can produce improved chromatographic efficiency and the reduction of emitter tip size increased sensitivity of the electrospray process. This improved sensitivity and ionization efficiency is valuable in analysis of precious biological samples where analytes vary in size, ion affinity, and concentration. In this review we will discuss common approaches and challenges in implementing nLC-MS methods and how the advantages can be leveraged to investigate a wide range of biomolecules.

Abstract
Herein, we introduce a comprehensive analytical method for the separation and relative quantification of polyglycerophospholipids (PGPLs), including phosphatidylglycerol (PG), bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP), bis(diacylglycero)phosphate (BDP), Hemi BDP, cardiolipin (CL), monolysocardiolipin (MLCL), and dilysocardiolipin (DLCL), using isotope-labeled methylation (ILM) with nanoflow ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nUHPLC-ESI-MS/MS). Abnormal levels of BMP and CL have been associated with the pathology of lysosomal storage and neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, simultaneous analysis of all PGPLs is important to understand the mechanisms and pathologies of such diseases. In this study, improved separation and MS detection of PGPLs, including their regioisomers, was achieved by the methylation of PGPL. ILM-based relative quantification was applied to lipid extracts from a dopaminergic cell line (SH-SY5Y) treated with drugs commonly used for Parkinson's disease (PD), resulting in the identification of 229 unique PGPLs, including 121 CLs, 71 MLCLs, and 16 Hemi BDP species. The drug treatment induced significant increases in the amount of CLs containing polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains, including 20:4 and 22:6, as well as decreased levels of BMP, Hemi BDP, and BDP species, demonstrating the feasibility of using ILM for the comprehensive and high-speed relative quantification of PGPLs.

Abstract
Nano-liquid chromatography (nLC)-nanoelectrospray (NSI) is one of the cornerstones of mass-spectrometry-based bioanalytics. Nevertheless, the application of nLC is not yet prevalent in lipid analyses. In this study, we established a reproducible nLC separation for global lipidomics and describe the merits of using such a miniaturized system for lipid analyses. In order to enable comprehensive lipid analyses that is not restricted to specific lipid classes, we particularly optimized sample preparation conditions and reversed-phase separation parameters. We further benchmarked the developed nLC system to a commonly used high flow HPLC/ESI MS system in terms of lipidome coverage and sensitivity. The comparison revealed an intensity gain between 2 and 3 orders of magnitude for individual lipid classes and an increase in the linear dynamic range of up to 2 orders of magnitude. Furthermore, the analysis of the yeast lipidome using nLC/NSI resulted in more than a 3-fold gain in lipid identifications. All in all, we identified 447 lipids from the core phospholipid lipid classes (PA, PE, PC, PS, PG, and PI) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
