Efficient derivatization-free monitoring of glycosyltransferase reactions via flow injection analysis-mass spectrometry for rapid sugar analytics. Anal Bioanal Chem 2024; 416:5191-5203. [PMID: 39095616 PMCID: PMC11377506 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05457-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2024] [Revised: 07/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
The widespread application of enzymes in industrial chemical synthesis requires efficient process control to maintain high yields and purity. Flow injection analysis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (FIA-ESI-MS) offers a promising solution for real-time monitoring of these enzymatic processes, particularly when handling challenging compounds like sugars and glycans, which are difficult to quickly analyze using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry due to their physical properties or the requirement for a derivatization step beforehand. This study compares the performance of FIA-MS with traditional hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC)-ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)-mass spectrometry (MS) setups for the monitoring of the enzymatic synthesis of N-acetyllactosamine (LacNAc) using beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase. Our results show that FIA-MS, without prior chromatographic separation or derivatization, can quickly generate accurate mass spectrometric data within minutes, contrasting with the lengthy separations required by LC-MS methods. The rapid data acquisition of FIA-MS enables effective real-time monitoring and adjustment of the enzymatic reactions. Furthermore, by eliminating the derivatization step, this method offers the possibility of being directly coupled to a continuously operated reactor, thus providing a rapid on-line methodology for glycan synthesis as well.

Abstract
Polysaccharides, as common metabolic products in organisms, play a crucial role in the growth and development of living organisms. For humans, polysaccharides represent a class of compounds with diverse applications, particularly in the medical field. Therefore, the exploration of the monosaccharide composition and structural characteristics of polysaccharides holds significant importance in understanding their biological functions. This review provides a comprehensive overview of extraction methods and hydrolysis strategies for polysaccharides. It systematically analyzes strategies and technologies for determining polysaccharide composition and discusses common derivatization reagents employed in further polysaccharide studies. Derivatization is considered a fundamental strategy for determining monosaccharides, as it not only enhances the detectability of analytes but also increases detection sensitivity, especially in liquid chromatography (LC), capillary electrophoresis (CE), and gas chromatography (GC) techniques. The review meticulously examines pre-column and post-column derivatization techniques for monosaccharide analysis, categorizing them based on diverse detection methodologies. It delves into the principles and distinctive features of various derivatization reagents, offering a comparative analysis of their strengths and limitations. Ultimately, the aim is to provide guidance for selecting the most suitable derivatization approach, taking into account the structural nuances, biological functions, and reaction dynamics of polysaccharides.

Abstract
The chromatographic retention of carbohydrates on chelating stationary phase loaded with different metal ions was studied under conditions of hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC). The chelating stationary phases represented silica microparticles with immobilized 2-hydroxyethyliminodiacetic acid (HEIDA) groups in loose form and saturated with Ca2+, Pb2+, and La3+form. The role of loaded metal ion, the acetonitrile and methanol content in the mobile phase, buffer pH and column temperature on the retention of l-(+)-arabinose, d-(+)-maltose, l-(+)-rhamnose, d-(+)-lactose, d-(+)-xylose, glucose, fructose, sucrose, mannose, maltotriose and d-(+) raffinose was studied. The investigation was mainly focused on possible contribution of the complexation in the stationary phase on retention of carbohydrates as well as on effect of the presence metal ion in HEIDA-silica on resulting HILIC behavior of. It is shown that adsorbents with immobilized metal complexes have a good potential for the separation of organic ligands under HILIC mode.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharide (EPS) from Weissella cibaria has been devoted to the study of food industry. However, the anticancer activity of W. cibaria derived EPS has not yet been investigated. In this study, we obtained the EPS from W. cibaria D-2 isolated from the feces of healthy infants and found that D-2-EPS, a homopolysaccharide with porous web like structure, could effectively inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and induce cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. In HT-29 tumor xenografts, D-2-EPS significantly retarded tumor growth without obvious cytotoxicity to normal organs. Furthermore, we revealed that D-2-EPS promoted the apoptosis of CRC cells by increasing the levels of Fas, FasL and activating Caspase-8/Caspase-3, indicating that D-2-EPS might induce apoptosis through the extrinsic Fas/FasL pathway. Taken together, the D-2-EPS has the potential to be developed as a nutraceutical or drug to prevent and treat colorectal cancer.

Abstract
In this study, a low-cost efficient online derivatization system was developed which allows for the detection of various types of mono- and oligo-saccharides only utilizing high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-ultraviolet detector (UV) system. In the proposed method, phenylhydrazine was used as the derivatization reagent and directly spiked in the mobile phase, allowing for the separation and detection of mono- and oligosaccharides in an accessible instrument system (HPLC-UV). And the online derivatization design of the proposed method has significantly reduced the potential harm of derivatization reagents to the analysts. Furthermore, critical chromatographic parameters were optimized via the Box-Behnken design strategy, culminating in the ideal response for saccharides. Finally, the methodology validation of the proposed method was conducted. The proposed method showed satisfactory linear ranges with acceptable correlation coefficients (R2 > 0.99), outstanding accuracy (Recovery: 95.3%-105.6%), high intra-day precision (relative standard deviation [RSD]: 1.4%-7.1%) and inter-day precision (RSD: 2.0%-7.4%). The robustness and ruggedness of the proposed method were proved as the recovery values in the range of 95.0%-104.6% and 95.1%-104.8% for robustness and ruggedness, respectively. These satisfactory validation results confirm the applicability and reliability of the proposed method for the analysis of saccharides in various complex real-world samples.

Abstract
Monosaccharides play important roles in biological processes. Sensitive and accurate analyses of monosaccharides remain challenging because of their high hydrophilicities and poor ionization efficiencies. Here, we developed a paired derivatization approach with H/D-labeled hydroxylamines for simultaneous quantification of 12 monosaccharides by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). O-(4-Methoxybenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride (4-MOBHA·HCl) showed higher derivatization efficiency for monosaccharides compared to six other hydroxylamine analogues. The derivatization of monosaccharides was readily achieved in an aqueous solution. Furthermore, the deuterium-labeled isotope reagent, d3-4-MOBHA·HCl, was newly synthesized to stably label monosaccharides to improve its accuracy and precision in complex matrix analysis. As a result, 12 monosaccharides were rapidly detected by LC-MS/MS within 16 min with significant improvements in chromatographic separation and retention time. The detection sensitivity increased by 83 to 1600-fold with limits of quantitation ranging from 0.25 to 3.00 fmol. With the paired derivatization strategy, the monosaccharides could be accurately quantified with good linearity (R2 > 0.99) and satisfactory accuracy (recoveries: 85-110%). Using this method, we achieved sensitive and accurate quantification of the monosaccharide composition of herbal polysaccharides and the change in monosaccharide levels in human cell lines under physiopathological conditions. More importantly, the developed method was able to differentiate between the levels of the monosaccharides in fecal samples of human ulcerative colitis (UC) patients and UC mice compared to their respective controls. The differential monosaccharides determined in human feces provided a good diagnostic performance in distinguishing the UC patients from healthy individuals, showing potential for clinical application.

Abstract
Monosaccharide isomers and disaccharide isomers widely exist in nature, playing a key role in a number of important biological processes. However, due to high structural similarity and high polarity, the characterization of monosaccharide isomers, disaccharide isomers, as well as the analysis of monosaccharide composition of polysaccharides by a method that does not require derivatization is an ongoing challenge. Herein, we proposed a simple method for rapid discrimination of non-derivatized neutral monosaccharide, and disaccharide isomers using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HILIC-Q/TOF-MS). In this work, we optimized the experimental parameters, and detailed approaches to discriminate the precursor ions, deprotonated ions, and fragment ions are proposed, as well. To discriminate the various ions, the retention times, the relative abundance (RA) of precursor ions and fragment ions at different collision energies, the relative abundance ratio (RAR) of fragment ions to deprotonated ions or precursor ions were considered for characterization of neutral monosaccharide and disaccharide isomers. Finally, this strategy was successfully applied to analyzing the monosaccharide composition of neutral disaccharides, polysaccharides, and an aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera seeds. The experimental results revealed that the HILIC-Q/TOF-MS is an effective and convenient strategy for rapid differentiation of monosaccharide isomers and disaccharide isomers, which may serve as a general platform for the analysis of neutral polysaccharides, food, medicinal plants, and herbs.

Abstract
Carbonyl-containing metabolites widely exist in biological samples and have important physiological functions. Thus, accurate and sensitive quantitative analysis of carbonyl-containing metabolites is crucial to provide insight into metabolic pathways as well as disease mechanisms. Although reversed phase liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (RPLC-ESI-MS) is widely used due to the powerful separation capability of RPLC and high specificity and sensitivity of MS, but it is often challenging to directly analyze carbonyl-containing metabolites using RPLC-ESI-MS due to the poor ionization efficiency of neutral carbonyl groups in ESI. Modification of carbonyl-containing metabolites by a chemical derivatization strategy can overcome the obstacle of sensitivity; however, it is insufficient to achieve accurate quantification due to instrument drift and matrix effects. The emergence of stable isotope-coded derivatization (ICD) provides a good solution to the problems encountered above. Thus, LC-MS methods that utilize ICD have been applied in metabolomics including quantitative targeted analysis and untargeted profiling analysis. In addition, ICD makes multiplex or multichannel submetabolome analysis possible, which not only reduces instrument running time but also avoids the variation of MS response. In this review, representative derivatization reagents and typical applications in absolute quantification and submetabolome profiling are discussed to highlight the superiority of the ICD strategy for detection of carbonyl-containing metabolites.

Abstract
Saccharides are the most common carbon source for Streptococcus thermophilus, which is a widely used bacterium in the production of fermented dairy products. The performance of the strain is influenced by the consumption of different saccharides during fermentation. Therefore, a precise measurement of the concentrations of saccharides in the fermentation media is essential. An 18-min long method with limits of quantitation in the range of 0.159-0.704 mg/L and with 13C labelled internal standards employing hydrophilic interaction chromatography coupled to mass spectrometric detection-(HILIC-LC-MS) allowed for simultaneous quantification of five saccharides: fructose, glucose, galactose, sucrose, and lactose in the fermentation samples. The method included a four-step sample preparation protocol, which could be easily applied to high-throughput analysis. The developed method was validated and applied to the fermentation samples produced by Streptococcus thermophilus.

Abstract
A new commercially available HPLC column, poly-N-(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-methacrylamide-bonded stationary phase (Daicel DCpak PTZ), was systematically evaluated for its carbohydrate isomer separation capability by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) with charged aerosol detection (CAD) or (tandem) mass spectrometry. Reducing sugars tend to split into two anomer peaks which makes carbohydrate isomer separations in non-derivatized form even more complicated. For practical purposes anomer separations are therefore ideally suppressed which can be accomplished by using high temperature or high pH that are both associated with fast interconversion kinetics leading to peak coalescence, or on the other hand by conditions with low chromatographic anomer selectivity. Four major hexoses (glucose, mannose, galactose, fructose), five main pentoses (ribose, ribulose, xylose, xylulose, arabinose) and five most important disaccharides (maltose, cellobiose, lactose, sucrose, trehalose) were analyzed as single carbohydrate standards by isocratic HILIC with 0.1% (v/v) formic acid and 2 mM ammonium acetate at various temperatures to study anomer interconversion equilibria in a pH-dependent manner. Rate constants of forward (α→β) and backward (β→α) anomerization and corresponding energy barriers were calculated. The energy barriers of anomerisation were in the range of around 83-91 kJ mol-1 at 298 K and the difference between forward (α→β) and backward reaction (β→α) was typically between 1-3 kJ mol-1. The systematic studies finally allowed to pick conditions for the simultaneous analysis of all 14 carbohydrates by HILIC-ESI-MS(/MS) with PTZ in gradient elution mode. A combination of carbohydrate isomer-selective LC (with PTZ), tandem MS (with carbohydrate group-selective MS1 and some species-specific SRM transitions) and a simple deconvolution strategy allowed the determination of all carbohydrates of the complex test mixture except for the disaccharide pair lactose and maltose (which can be determined as sum). Consequently, the proposed method represents a successful step towards a global glycometabolomics profiling method of mono- and disaccharides by HILIC-ESI-MS/MS.

Abstract
Toxicological effects of sulfamethazine (SM2) have garnered increasing concern due to its wide applications in aquaculture and persistence in the aquatic environment. Most studies have main focused on freshwater fish (i.e. zebrafish), while information regarding effects of SM2 on marine species is still scarce. Here, the hepatotoxicities in marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma) with an increasing SM2 concentration exposures (0.01 mg/L, 0.1 mg/L and 1 mg/L) were assessed by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC-TOF/MS) based metabolomics. Significant metabolites belonging to different metabolites classes were identified by multivariate statistical analysis. The increases levels of amino acids including alanine, asparagine, ornithine, proline, threonine, glutamic acid, lysine, tyrosine and phenylalanine were found in at least two exposure levels. Pathway analysis revealed that amino acids played important biological roles during SM2 exposure: up-regulation of high energy-related amino acids for energy alteration; immune function disorder, oxidative stress and corresponding toxicities defenses. The down regulations of sugar and fatty acid metabolism were observed with an increasing level of SM2 exposure, suggesting that extra energy for cellular defense and detoxification was demanded in terms of different stress request. This study provided an innovative perspective to explore possible SM2 induced hepatic damages at three exposure levels on a nontarget aquatic specie.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a regulated form of necrotic cell death implicated in carcinogenesis and neurodegeneration that is driven by phospholipid peroxidation. Lipid-derived electrophiles (LDEs) generated during this process can covalently modify proteins ("carbonylation") and affect their functions. Here we report the development of a quantitative chemoproteomic method to profile carbonylations in ferroptosis by an aniline-derived probe. Using the method, we established a global portrait of protein carbonylations in ferroptosis with >400 endogenously modified proteins and for the first time, identified >20 residue sites with endogenous LDE modifications in ferroptotic cells. Specifically, we discovered and validated a novel cysteine site of modification on voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 2 (VDAC2) that might play an important role in sensitizing LDE signals and mediating ferroptosis. Our results will contribute to the understanding of ferroptotic signaling and pathogenesis and provide potential biomarkers for ferroptosis detection.
