Abstract
The deliberate pork adulteration with lymph nodes is a common adulteration phenomenon, and it poses a serious threat to public health and food safety. An untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics approach based on ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap quadrupole-Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (MS) was used to distinguish lymph nodes from minced pork. The principal component analysis and orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis models were established with the good of fitness and predictivity. The results showed that there were significant differences in metabolites and lipids between lymph nodes and pork. A total of 16 significantly differentiated metabolites were identified, of which 1-palmitoylglycerophosphocholine, 12,13-dihydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were positively correlated with lymph node content and were identified as potential markers of lymph nodes. These three markers were combined to create a binary logistic regression model, and a combined-factor exceeding 0.75 was ultimately identified as a marker for pork adulteration with lymph nodes. The desorption electrospray ionization-MS images showed that PGE2 had a higher relative abundance in the lymph node region than in adjacent non-lymph node regions, indicating that PGE2 was a marker that contributed significantly for identifying lymph nodes adulteration into pork. Our results provide a theoretical basis for identifying lymph node adulteration, which will contribute to combating fraud in the meat industry.

Abstract
Dipeptides have been shown to be an important taste substance in alcoholic beverages. However, the characterization of dipeptides in Chinese liquors was poor. Here, dansylation combined with liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry was employed to analyze dipeptides in eight liquors of two flavors. Consequently, 35 dipeptides were identified from liquors and 32 of them were quantified. Dipeptide quantification showed LODs smaller than 2.5 ng/mL. The calibration curves showed concentration spans from two to three orders of magnitude with satisfactory linearity. The matrix effects in low and high concentrations were from -25.71 % to 24.19 % and -14.82 % to 20.73 %, respectively. Intra- and inter-day precision is lower than 15 % for both low and high concentrations. The dipeptide contents in sauce flavor liquors were higher than those in strong flavor liquors. Ala- and -Phe dipeptides showed their unique trends between sauce and strong flavor liquors. This study provides new clues to evaluate taste of liquors.

Abstract
Small peptides such as dipeptides and tripeptides show various biological activities in organisms. However, methods for identifying dipeptides/tripeptides from complex biological samples are lacking. Here, an annotation strategy involving the derivatization of dipeptides and tripeptides via dansylation was suggested based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and iterative quantitative structure retention relationship (QSRR) to choose dipeptides/tripeptides by using a small number of standards. First, the LC-autoMS/MS method and initial QSRR model were built based on 25 selected grid-dipeptides and 18 test-dipeptides. To achieve high-coverage detection, dipeptide/tripeptide pools containing abundant dipeptides/tripeptides were then obtained from four dansylated biological samples including serum, tissue, feces, and soybean paste by using the parameter-optimized LC-autoMS/MS method. The QSRR model was further optimized through an iterative train-by-pick strategy. Based on the specific fragments and tR tolerances, 198 dipeptides and 149 tripeptides were annotated. The dipeptides at lower annotation levels were verified by using authentic standards and grid-correlation analysis. Finally, variation in serum dipeptides/tripeptides of three different liver diseases including hepatitis B infection, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma was characterized. Dipeptides with N-prolinyl, C-proline, N-glutamyl, and N-valinyl generally increased with disease severity. In conclusion, this study provides an efficient strategy for annotating dipeptides/tripeptides from complex samples.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry-based metabolomics has emerged as a powerful technique for biomedical research, although technical issues with its analytical precision and structural characterization remain. Herein, a robust non-targeted strategy for accurate quantitation and precise profiling of metabolomes is developed and applied to investigate plasma metabolic features associated with human aging. A comprehensive set of isotope-labeled standards (ISs) covering major metabolic pathways is incorporated to quantify polar metabolites. Matching rules to select ISs for calibration follow a primary criterion of minimal coefficients of variations (COVs). If minimal COVs between specific ISs for a particular metabolite fall within 5% window, a further selection of ISs is conducted based on structural similarities and proximity in retention time. The introduction and refined selection of appropriate ISs for quantitation reduces the COVs of 480 identified metabolites in quality control samples from 14.3% to 9.8% and facilitates identification of additional metabolite. Finally, the precise metabolomics approach reveals perturbations in a diverse array of metabolic pathways across aging that principally implicate steroid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, lipid metabolism, and purine metabolism, which allows the authors to draw correlates to the pathology of various age-related diseases. These findings provide clues for the prevention and treatment of these age-related diseases.
