Elshoura Y, Herz M, Gad MZ, Hanafi R. Nitro fatty acids: A comprehensive review on analytical methods and levels in health and disease. Anal Biochem 2024; 694:115624. [PMID: 39029643 DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2024.115624] [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: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
Nitro fatty acids (NO2-FAs) are biologically active compounds produced from the reaction of unsaturated fatty acids with reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Due to their electrophilic nature, these endogenously produced metabolites can react with nucleophilic targets, producing a spectrum of modulatory and protective effects. Determination of NO2-FAs in biological samples is challenging due to their low nanomolar to picomolar endogenous concentrations, indistinct metabolism, and distribution in many tissues and biofluids. Several attempts have been made to develop precise, standardized, and efficient methodologies for assessing physiological and pathophysiological processes to overcome the difficulties associated with their measurement. This review discusses those approaches utilizing liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC‒MS/MS) and gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC‒MS/MS) for the quantification of NO2-FAs, in addition to a summary of their laboratory synthesis and extraction from biological samples. Clinical associations with different pathological conditions, including hyperlipidaemia, cardiac ischemia and herpes simplex type 2 viral infection (HSV-2), are also discussed.

Comprehensive analysis of key aroma compounds enhanced by Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb in mutton roasted by air-frying roast technology by means of SAFE-GC-O-MS and lipidomics. Food Chem X 2024; 23:101593. [PMID: 39036480 PMCID: PMC11260336 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Little information is known about the increased aroma compounds and possible mechanism in Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb roasted mutton (TRM). A comprehensive analysis of aroma compounds and lipids were firstly performed by lipidomics and sensomics approach. The results indicated that 9 out of 53 aroma compounds were considered as key odorants, including 5-methyl-2,3-diethylpyrazine. The roasted mutton contained highest levels of phosphatidylcholine (PC, 13.95%), triglyceride (TG, 13.50%), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE, 12.25%). TG 18:0_18:0_18:1 and nine odorants were the potential biomarkers for discriminating differential samples due to variable importance in projection (VIP) > 1 and p < 0.05. PCs and TGs, including PC 21:0_13:1 and TG 16:0_18:1_18:1, might be predominantly responsible for the formation and retention of aroma compounds, respectively. This will clarify the enhanced effect of Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb on the presence of aroma compounds via lipid pathways in roasted mutton.

Hepatocyte-derived Igκ promotes HCC progression by stabilizing electron transfer flavoprotein subunit α to facilitate fatty acid β-oxidation. J Exp Clin Cancer Res 2024; 43:280. [PMID: 39380077 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-024-03203-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 09/30/2024] [Indexed: 10/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid metabolism dysregulation is a key characteristic of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) onset and progression. Elevated expression of immunoglobulin (Ig), especially the Igκ free light chain with a unique Vκ4-1/Jκ3 rearrangement in cancer cells, is linked to increased malignancy and has been implicated in colon cancer tumorigenesis. However, the role of Igκ in HCC carcinogenesis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to elucidate the pivotal roles of hepatocyte-derived Igκ in HCC development. METHODS The rearrangement sequence and expression level of hepatocyte-derived Igκ in HCC cells were determined via RT-PCR, Sanger sequencing, immunohistochemistry, and western blot analysis. The function of Igκ in HCC tumorigenesis was assessed by silencing Igκ using siRNA or gRNA in various HCC cell lines. To assess the role of Igκ in HCC pathogenesis in vivo, a mouse model with hepatocyte-specific Igκ knockout and diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and carbon tetrachloride (CCL4)-induced HCC was utilized. The molecular mechanism by which Igκ affects HCC tumorigenesis was investigated through multiomics analyses, quantitative real-time PCR, immunoprecipitation, mass spectrometry, immunofluorescence, and metabolite detection. RESULTS We confirmed that Igκ, especially Vκ4-1/Jκ3-Igκ, is highly expressed in human HCC cells. Igκ depletion inhibited HCC cell proliferation and migration in vitro, and hepatocyte-specific Igκ deficiency ameliorated HCC progression in mice with DEN and CCL4-induced HCC in vivo. Mechanistically, Vκ4-1/Jκ3-Igκ interacts with electron transfer flavoprotein subunit α (ETFA), delaying its protein degradation. Loss of Igκ led to a decrease in the expression of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes III and IV, resulting in aberrant fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) and lipid accumulation, which in turn inhibited HCC cell proliferation and migration. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that the Igκ/ETFA axis deregulates fatty acid β-oxidation, contributing to HCC progression, which suggests that targeting fatty acid metabolism may be an effective HCC treatment strategy. The results of this study suggest that hepatocyte-derived Vκ4-1/Jκ3-Igκ may serve as a promising therapeutic target for HCC.

Abstract
The lateral diffusion of lipids within a membrane is of paramount importance, serving as a central mechanism in numerous physiological processes including cell signaling, membrane trafficking, protein activity regulation, and energy transduction pathways. This review offers a comprehensive overview of lateral lipid diffusion in model biomembrane systems explored through the lens of neutron scattering techniques. We examine diverse models of lateral diffusion and explore the various factors influencing this fundamental process in membrane dynamics. Additionally, we offer a thorough summary of how different membrane-active compounds, including drugs, antioxidants, stimulants, and membrane proteins, affect lipid lateral diffusion. Our analysis unveils the intricate interplay between these additives and membranes, shedding light on their dynamic interactions. We elucidate that this interaction is governed by a complex combination of multiple factors including the physical state and charge of the membrane, the concentration of additives, the molecular architecture of the compounds, and their spatial distribution within the membrane. In conclusion, we briefly discuss the future directions and areas requiring further investigation in the realm of lateral lipid diffusion, highlighting the need to study more realistic membrane systems.

Abstract
This Perspective covers discovery and mechanistic aspects as well as initial applications of novel ionization processes for use in mass spectrometry that guided us in a series of subsequent discoveries, instrument developments, and commercialization. Vacuum matrix-assisted ionization on an intermediate pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization source without the use of a laser, high voltages, or any other added energy was simply unbelievable, at first. Individually and as a whole, the various discoveries and inventions started to paint, inter alia, an exciting new picture and outlook in mass spectrometry from which key developments grew that were at the time unimaginable, and continue to surprise us in its simplistic preeminence. We, and others, have demonstrated exceptional analytical utility. Our current research is focused on how best to understand, improve, and use these novel ionization processes through dedicated platforms and source developments. These ionization processes convert volatile and nonvolatile compounds from solid or liquid matrixes into gas-phase ions for analysis by mass spectrometry using, e.g., mass-selected fragmentation and ion mobility spectrometry to provide accurate, and sometimes improved, mass and drift time resolution. The combination of research and discoveries demonstrated multiple advantages of the new ionization processes and established the basis of the successes that lead to the Biemann Medal and this Perspective. How the new ionization processes relate to traditional ionization is also presented, as well as how these technologies can be utilized in tandem through instrument modification and implementation to increase coverage of complex materials through complementary strengths.

Abstract
High-resolution ion mobility (resolving power > 200) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical tool for resolving isobars and isomers in complex samples. High-resolution ion mobility is capable of discerning additional structurally distinct features, which are not observed with conventional resolving power ion mobility (IM, resolving power ~ 50) techniques such as traveling wave IM and drift tube ion mobility (DTIM). DTIM in particular is considered to be the "gold standard" IM technique since collision cross section (CCS) values are directly obtained through a first-principles relationship, whereas traveling wave IM techniques require an additional calibration strategy to determine accurate CCS values. In this study, we aim to evaluate the separation capabilities of a traveling wave ion mobility structures for lossless ion manipulation platform integrated with mass spectrometry analysis (SLIM IM-MS) for both lipid isomer standards and complex lipid samples. A cross-platform investigation of seven subclass-specific lipid extracts examined by both DTIM-MS and SLIM IM-MS showed additional features were observed for all lipid extracts when examined under high resolving power IM conditions, with the number of CCS-aligned features that resolve into additional peaks from DTIM-MS to SLIM IM-MS analysis varying between 5 and 50%, depending on the specific lipid sub-class investigated. Lipid CCS values are obtained from SLIM IM (TW(SLIM)CCS) through a two-step calibration procedure to align these measurements to within 2% average bias to reference values obtained via DTIM (DTCCS). A total of 225 lipid features from seven lipid extracts are subsequently identified in the high resolving power IM analysis by a combination of accurate mass-to-charge, CCS, retention time, and linear mobility-mass correlations to curate a high-resolution IM lipid structural atlas. These results emphasize the high isomeric complexity present in lipidomic samples and underscore the need for multiple analytical stages of separation operated at high resolution.

Abstract
Persister cells constitute a bacterial subpopulation able to survive to high concentrations of antibiotics. This phenotype is temporary and reversible, and thus could be involved in the recurrence of infections and emergence of antibiotic resistance. To better understand how persister cells survive to such high antibiotic concentration, we examined changes in their lipid composition. We thus compared the lipidome of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606T persister cells formed under ciprofloxacin treatment with the lipidome of control cells grown without antibiotic. Using matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation-Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, we observed a higher abundance of short chains and secondary chains without hydroxylation for lipid A in persister cells. Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, we found that persister cells produced particular phosphatidylglycerols, as LPAGPE and PAGPE, but also lipids with particular acyl chains containing additional hydroxyl group or uncommon di-unsaturation on C18 and C16 acyl chains. In order to determine the impact of these multiple lipidome modifications on membrane fluidity, fluorescence anisotropy assays were performed. They showed an increase of rigidity for the membrane of persister cells, inducing likely a decrease membrane permeability to protect cells during dormancy. Finally, we highlighted that A. baumannii persister cells also produced particular wax esters, composed of two fatty acids and a fatty diol. These uncommon storage lipids are key metabolites allowing a rapid bacterial regrow when antibiotic pressure disappears. These overall changes in persister lipidome may constitute new therapeutic targets to combat these particular dormant cells.

LC-MS/MS-based phospholipid profiling of plant-pathogenic bacteria with tailored separation of methyl-branched species. Anal Bioanal Chem 2024; 416:5513-5525. [PMID: 39052053 PMCID: PMC11427607 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05451-1] [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: 05/13/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Plant-pathogenic bacteria are one of the major constraints on agricultural yield. In order to selectively treat these bacteria, it is essential to understand the molecular structure of their cell membrane. Previous studies have focused on analyzing hydrolyzed fatty acids (FA) due to the complexity of bacterial membrane lipids. These studies have highlighted the occurrence of branched-chain fatty acids (BCFA) alongside normal-chain fatty acids (NCFA) in many bacteria. As several FA are bound in the intact phospholipids of the bacterial membrane, the presence of isomeric FA complicates lipid analysis. Furthermore, commercially available reference standards do not fully cover potential lipid isomers. To address this issue, we have developed a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to analyze the phospholipids of various plant-pathogenic bacteria with a focus on BCFA containing phospholipids. The study revealed the separation of three isomeric phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) depending on the number of bound BCFA to NCFA. The validation of the retention order was based on available reference standards in combination with the analysis of hydrolyzed fatty acids through gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) after fractionation. Additionally, the transferability of the retention order to other major lipid classes, such as phosphatidylglycerols (PG) and cardiolipins (CL), was thoroughly examined. Using the information regarding the retention behavior, the phospholipid profile of six plant-pathogenic bacteria was structurally elucidated. Furthermore, the developed LC-MS/MS method was used to classify the plant-pathogenic bacteria based on the number of bound BCFA in the phospholipidome.

Direct analysis by ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry of lipid A and phospholipids from Acinetobacter baumannii cells. Biochimie 2024:S0300-9084(24)00222-0. [PMID: 39326489 DOI: 10.1016/j.biochi.2024.09.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 08/13/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024]
Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii, classified as priority number one by the World Health Organization (WHO), is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for infection and is able to develop antibiotic resistance easily. Membranes are bacteria's first line of defense against external aggression, such as antibiotics. A chemical modification of a lipid family or a change in lipid composition can lead to resistance to antibiotics. In this work, we analyzed different A. baumannii strains from various environments with different antibiotic resistance profiles, using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (MALDI-FT-ICR MS). This study shows that it is possible to describe the main lipidome (phospholipids and lipid A) from the simple preparation of lysed cells, and that despite the complexity of the mixture. This ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry technique enables the separation of isobaric ion, to report a new class of lipids. Given its performance, this technique can be used to quickly and reliably characterize the lipidome of clinical strains from different environments.

Abstract
Previous studies demonstrated that EV71-infected cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs), facilitating the transfer of viral components to recipient cells and thereby promoting virus spread. Considering lipid signaling plays a crucial role in EVs-mediated cell-to-cell communication, we compared the lipid profile of EVs secreted from uninfected and EV71-infected cells (EVs-Mock and EVs-EV71) using the human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cell model. These two groups of EVs were purified by using size exclusion chromatography (SEC), respectively, and evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking technology (NTA), and Western blotting (WB). In-depth lipidomic analysis of EVs identified 1705 lipid molecules belonging to 43 lipid classes. The data showed a significant increase in the lipid content of EVs after EV71 infection. Meanwhile, we deeply analyzed the changes in lipids and screened for lipid molecules with significant differences compared EVs-EV71 with EVs-Mock EVs. Altogether, we report the alterations in the lipid profile of EVs derived from RD-cells after EV71 infection, which may affect the function of the EVs in the recipient cells.

Abstract
Multiomics approaches have significantly aided the identification of molecular signatures in complex neuropsychiatric disorders. Lipidomics, one of the newest additions in the -omics family, sheds light on lipid profiles and is an emerging methodological tool to study schizophrenia pathobiology, as lipid dysregulation has been repeatedly observed in schizophrenia. In this review, we performed a detailed literature search for lipidomics studies in schizophrenia. Following elaborate inclusion/exclusion criteria, we focused on human studies in schizophrenia and schizophrenia-related diagnoses in brain and blood specimens, including serum plasma, platelets and red blood cells. Eighteen studies fulfilled our inclusion criteria, of which five were conducted in the brain, 12 in peripheral material and one in both. Here, we first provide background on lipidomics and the main lipid categories addressed, review in detail the included literature and look for common lipidomics patterns in brain and the periphery that emerge from these studies. Furthermore, we highlight current limitations in schizophrenia lipidomics research and underline the need for following up on lipidomics results with complementary molecular approaches.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a global health threat and has rapidly spread worldwide. Significant changes in the lipid profile before and after COVID-19 confirmed the significance of lipid metabolism in regulating the response to viral infection. Therefore, understanding the role of lipid metabolism may facilitate the development of new therapeutics for COVID-19. Owing to their high sensitivity and accuracy, mass spectrometry (MS)-based methods are widely used for rapidly identifying and quantifying of thousands of lipid species present in a small amount of sample. To enhance the capabilities of MS for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of lipids, different platforms have been combined to cover a wide range of lipidomes with high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. Currently, MS-based technologies are being established as efficient methods for discovering potential diagnostic biomarkers for COVID-19 and related diseases. As the lipidome of the host cell is drastically affected by the viral replication process, investigating lipid profile alterations in patients with COVID-19 and targeting lipid metabolism pathways are considered to be crucial steps in host-directed drug targeting to develop better therapeutic strategies. This review summarizes various MS-based strategies that have been developed for lipidomic analyzes and biomarker discoveries to combat COVID-19 by integrating various other potential approaches using different human samples. Furthermore, this review discusses the challenges in using MS technologies and future perspectives in terms of drug discovery and diagnosis of COVID-19.

Abstract
Lipids have evolved as versatile signaling molecules that regulate a variety of physiological processes in plants. Convincing evidence highlights their critical role as mediators in a wide range of plant processes required for survival, growth, development, and responses to environmental conditions such as water availability, temperature changes, salt, pests, and diseases. Understanding lipid signaling as a critical process has helped us expand our understanding of plant biology by explaining how plants sense and respond to environmental cues. Lipid signaling pathways constitute a complex network of lipids, enzymes, and receptors that coordinate important cellular responses and stressing plant biology's changing and adaptable traits. Plant lipid signaling involves a wide range of lipid classes, including phospholipids, sphingolipids, oxylipins, and sterols, each of which contributes differently to cellular communication and control. These lipids function not only as structural components, but also as bioactive molecules that transfer signals. The mechanisms entail the production of lipid mediators and their detection by particular receptors, which frequently trigger downstream cascades that affect gene expression, cellular functions, and overall plant growth. This review looks into lipid signaling in plant physiology, giving an in-depth look and emphasizing its critical function as a master regulator of vital activities.

Abstract
The black morel (Morchella sextelata) is a valuable edible and medicinal mushroom appreciated worldwide. Here, lipidomic profiles and lipid dynamic changes during the growth of M. sexletata were analyzed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. 203 lipid molecules, including four categories and fourteen subclasses, were identified in mature fruiting bodies, with triacylglycerol being the most abundant (37.00 %). Fatty acid composition analysis revealed that linoleic acid was the major fatty acid among the free fatty acids, glycerolipids and glycerophospholipids. The relative concentration of lipids in M. sextelata changed significantly during its growth, from which 12 and 29 differential lipid molecules were screened out, respectively. Pathway analysis based on these differential lipids showed that glycerophospholipid metabolism was the major pathway involved in the growth of M. sextelata. Our study provides a comprehensive understanding of the lipids in M. sextelata and will facilitate the development and utilization of M. sextelata.

[PMID: 39212696 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05508-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Integration of glycan-related databases between different research fields is essential in glycoscience. It requires knowledge across the breadth of science because most glycans exist as glycoconjugates. On the other hand, especially between chemistry and biology, glycan data has not been easy to integrate due to the huge variety of glycan structure representations. We have developed WURCS (Web 3.0 Unique Representation of Carbohydrate Structures) as a notation for representing all glycan structures uniquely for the purpose of integrating data across scientific data resources. While the integration of glycan data in the field of biology has been greatly advanced, in the field of chemistry, progress has been hampered due to the lack of appropriate rules to extract sugars from chemical structures. Thus, we developed a unique algorithm to determine the range of structures allowed to be considered as sugars from the structural formulae of compounds, and we developed software to extract sugars in WURCS format according to this algorithm. In this manuscript, we show that our algorithm can extract sugars from glycoconjugate molecules represented at the molecular level and can distinguish them from other biomolecules, such as amino acids, nucleic acids, and lipids. Available as software, MolWURCS is freely available and downloadable ( https://gitlab.com/glycoinfo/molwurcs ).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data suggest that metabolites, other than blood phenylalanine (Phe), better and independently predict clinical outcomes in patients with phenylketonuria (PKU). METHODS To find new biomarkers, we compared the results of untargeted lipidomics and metabolomics in treated adult PKU patients to those of matched controls. Samples (lipidomics in EDTA-plasma (22 PKU and 22 controls) and metabolomics in serum (35 PKU and 20 controls)) were analyzed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Data were subjected to multivariate (PCA, OPLS-DA) and univariate (Mann-Whitney U test, p < 0.05) analyses. RESULTS Levels of 33 (of 20,443) lipid features and 56 (of 5885) metabolite features differed statistically between PKU patients and controls. For lipidomics, findings include higher glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, and sphingolipids species. Significantly lower values were found for sterols and glycerophospholipids species. Seven features had unknown identities. Total triglyceride content was higher. Higher Phe and Phe catabolites, tryptophan derivatives, pantothenic acid, and dipeptides were observed for metabolomics. Ornithine levels were lower. Twenty-six metabolite features were not annotated. CONCLUSIONS This study provides insight into the metabolic phenotype of PKU patients. Additional studies are required to establish whether the observed changes result from PKU itself, diet, and/or an unknown reason.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a major public health problem worldwide, afflicting many postmenopausal women. Although many studies have focused on the biological role of individual lipids in osteoporosis, no studies have systematically elucidated the lipid profile of osteoporosis. In this study, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technology based on multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method was used to compare the levels of lipid molecules in bone marrow cells of osteoporotic mice (OVX) group and sham-operation (Sham) group. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used for multivariate statistics. Differential lipids were obtained by bar graph, heatmap and volcano map. A total of 400 lipid molecules were identified. A total of 199 lipid molecules were identified to be associated with PMOP, including 6 phospholipids and 3 sphingolipids. These differential lipid molecules provide a systematic lipid profile for osteoporosis, which helps to discover new candidate osteoporosis biomarkers, and their changes at the molecular level can be used as new targets for diagnosis or prevention.

Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1317:342913. [PMID: 39030025 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342913] [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: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipidomics studies require rapid separations with accurate and reliable quantification results to further elucidate the role of lipids in biological processes and their biological functions. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), in particular, can provide this rapid and high-resolution separation. The combination with trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) has not yet been applied, although the post-ionization separation method in combination with liquid chromatography or imaging techniques has already proven itself in resolving isomeric and isobaric lipids and preventing false identifications. However, a multidimensional separation method should not only allow confident identification but also provide quantitative results to substantiate studies with absolute concentrations. RESULTS A SFC method was developed and the hyphenation of SFC and TIMS was further explored towards the separation of different isobaric overlaps. Furthermore, lipid identification was performed using mass spectrometry (MS) and parallel accumulation serial fragmentation (PASEF) MS/MS experiments in addition to retention time and collision cross section (CCS). Quantification was further investigated with short TIMS ramps and performed based on the ion mobility signal of lipids, since TIMS increases the sensitivity by noise filtering. The final method was, as an exemplary study, applied to investigate the function of different ceramide synthases (CerS) in the nematode and model organism Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Loss of three known CerS hyl-1, hyl-2 and lagr-1 demonstrated different influences on and alterations in the sphingolipidome. SIGNIFICANCE This method describes for the first time the combination of SFC and TIMS-MS/MS, which enables a fast and sensitive quantification of lipids. The results of the application to C. elegans samples prove the functionality of the method and support research on the metabolism of sphingolipids in nematodes.

Abstract
Flammulina velutipes (enokitake) is widely recognized for its nutritional and medicinal properties. Understanding the biochemical processes, such as lipid metabolism during fruiting body formation, is essential for enhancing mushroom cultivation and utilization. This study aimed at elucidating the dynamic lipidomic changes during seven growth stages of F. velutipes using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Our results revealed significant increases in ceramides along with the growth and a sharp decline in phosphatidylinositols from mycelial to primordial stages. Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids, recently discovered for their bioactivities, showed high intensities in the mycelial and primordial stages but decreased rapidly thereafter. These findings provide profound insights into the lipid profiles associated with mushroom morphology and development. This lipidomics study establishes a foundational understanding for future research in agricultural and food chemistry applications, potentially improving industrial production and quality control of F. velutipes.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most prevalent and lethal malignancies. Lipidomic investigations have revealed numerous disruptions in lipid profiles across various cancers. Studies on CRC exhibit potential for identifying novel diagnostic or prognostic indicators through lipidomic signatures. This review examines recent literature regarding lipidomic markers for CRC. PubMed database was searched for eligible articles concerning lipidomic biomarkers of CRC. After selection, 36 articles were included in the review. Several studies endeavor to establish sets of lipid biomarkers that demonstrate promising potential to diagnose CRC based on blood samples. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, ceramides, and triacylglycerols (TAGs) appear to offer the highest diagnostic accuracy. In tissues, lysophospholipids, ceramides, and TAGs were among the most altered lipids, while unsaturated fatty acids also emerged as potential biomarkers. In-depth analysis requires both cell culture and animal studies. CRC involves multiple lipid metabolism alterations. Although numerous lipid species have been suggested as potential diagnostic markers, the establishment of standardized methods and the conduct of large-scale studies are necessary to facilitate their clinical application.

Abstract
Seminal plasma contains a heterogeneous population of extracellular vesicles (sEVs) that remains poorly characterized. This study aimed to characterize the lipidomic profile of two subsets of differently sized sEVs, small (S-) and large (L-), isolated from porcine seminal plasma by size-exclusion chromatography and characterized by an orthogonal approach. High-performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry was used for lipidomic analysis. A total of 157 lipid species from 14 lipid classes of 4 major categories (sphingolipids, glycerophospholipids, glycerolipids, and sterols) were identified. Qualitative differences were limited to two cholesteryl ester species present only in S-sEVs. L-sEVs had higher levels of all quantified lipid classes due to their larger membrane surface area. The distribution pattern was different, especially for sphingomyelins (more in S-sEVs) and ceramides (more in L-sEVs). In conclusion, this study reveals differences in the lipidomic profile of two subsets of porcine sEVs, suggesting that they differ in biogenesis and functionality.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, and its prevalence is increasing. Currently, no effective therapies for PD exist. Marine-derived natural compounds are considered important resources for the discovery of new drugs due to their distinctive structures and diverse activities. In this study, tetrahydroauroglaucin (TAG), a polyketide isolated from a marine sponge, was found to have notable neuroprotective effects on MPTP/MPP+-induced neurotoxicity. RNA sequencing analysis and metabolomics revealed that TAG significantly improved lipid metabolism disorder in PD models. Further investigation indicated that TAG markedly decreased the accumulation of lipid droplets (LDs), downregulated the expression of RUBCN, and promoted autophagic flux. Moreover, conditional knockdown of Rubcn notably attenuated PD-like symptoms and the accumulation of LDs, accompanied by blockade of the neuroprotective effect of TAG. Collectively, our results first indicated that TAG, a promising PD therapeutic candidate, could suppress the accumulation of LDs through the RUBCN-autophagy pathway, which highlighted a novel and effective strategy for PD treatment.

Abstract
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) results from the silencing of the FMR1 gene and is the most prevalent inherited cause of intellectual disability and the most frequent monogenic cause of autism spectrum disorder. It is well established that Fragile X individuals are subjected to a wide array of comorbidities, ranging from cognitive, behavioural, and medical origin. Furthermore, recent studies have also described metabolic impairments in FXS individuals. However, the molecular mechanisms linking FMRP deficiency to improper metabolism are still misunderstood. The endocannabinoidome (eCBome) is a lipid-based signalling system that regulates several functions across the body, ranging from cognition, behaviour and metabolism. Alterations in the eCBome have been described in FXS animal models and linked to neuronal hyperexcitability, a core deficit of the disease. However, the potential link between dysregulation of the eCBome and altered metabolism observed in FXS remains unexplored. As such, this review aims to overcome this issue by describing the most recent finding related to eCBome and metabolic dysfunctions in the context of FXS. A better comprehension of this association will help deepen our understanding of FXS pathophysiology and pave the way for future therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Feeding faba beans to grass carp could crisp its muscle texture to avoid softening, the relationship between texture formation throughout the crisping process and the critical lipids regulating the fish quality has not yet been clarified. Herein, an 60-day nutritional trial and untargeted lipidomic analysis was used to study the changes of lipids in crisp grass carp dorsal muscle. A total of 1036 lipids were remarkably different between ordinary and crisp grass carp. The concentrations of the LPC, LPE, PG, Cer, Hex2Cer, SM, MG and MGMG were positively correlated with hardness and springiness, and the CL, TG, PMe, WE, dMePE and AcCa were negative correlation. High content of lipids involved in storage in ordinary grass carp, such as glycerophospholipids, polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acid content. In contrast, high content of membrane components in crisp grass carp, such as monounsaturated fatty acid, sphingolipid and glycerolipids content, and the distribution of PUFA in lipid molecules was related to lipid biosynthesis. This study might provide some insights into improved knowledge of the association between meat texture and lipid molecules in fish fed with faba bean.

Abstract
This work describes a novel route for phospholipid fatty acid remodeling involving the monounsaturated fatty acid palmitoleic acid. When administered to human monocytes, palmitoleic acid rapidly incorporates into membrane phospholipids, notably into phosphatidylcholine (PC). In resting cells, palmitoleic acid remains within the phospholipid pools where it was initially incorporated, showing no further movement. However, stimulation of the human monocytes with either receptor-directed (opsonized zymosan) or soluble (calcium ionophore A23187) agonists results in the rapid transfer of palmitoleic acid moieties from PC to phosphatidylinositol (PI). This is due to the activation of a coenzyme A-dependent remodeling route involving two different phospholipase A2 enzymes that act on different substrates to generate free palmitoleic acid and lysoPI acceptors. The stimulated enrichment of specific PI molecular species with palmitoleic acid unveils a hitherto-unrecognized pathway for lipid turnover in human monocytes which may play a role in regulating lipid signaling during innate immune activation.

Abstract
Omics analyses collectively refer to the possibility of profiling genetic variants, RNA, epigenetic markers, proteins, lipids, and metabolites. The most common analytical approaches used for detecting molecules present within biofluids related to metabolism are vibrational spectroscopy techniques, represented by infrared, Raman, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopies and mass spectrometry (MS). Omics-based assessments utilizing MS are rapidly expanding and being applied to various scientific disciplines and clinical settings. Most of the omics instruments are operated by specialists in dedicated laboratories; however, the development of miniature portable omics has made the technology more available to users for field applications. Variations in molecular information gained from omics approaches are useful for evaluating human health following environmental exposure and the development and progression of numerous diseases. As MS technology develops so do statistical and machine learning methods for the detection of molecular deviations from personalized metabolism, which are correlated to altered health conditions, and they are intended to provide a multi-disciplinary overview for researchers interested in adding multiomic analysis to their current efforts. This includes an introduction to mass spectrometry-based omics technologies, current state-of-the-art capabilities and their respective strengths and limitations for surveying molecular information. Furthermore, we describe how knowledge gained from these assessments can be applied to personalized medicine and diagnostic strategies.

Abstract
Yak milk is essential to maintain the normal physiological functions of herders in Tibetan areas of China. However, the lipid components of yak colostrum (YC) and mature milk (YM) have not been systematically studied. We employed a quantitative lipidomics to comprehensively describe the alterations in the milk lipid profile of lactating yaks. Herein, totally 851 lipids from 28 lipid subclasses in YC and YM were identified and screened for 43 significantly different lipids (SDLs; variable importance in projection > 1, fold change < 0.5 or > 2 with P < 0.05), with cholesterol ester (CE, 16:0) and triacylglycerol (TAG, 54:6 (20:5), 50:1 (16:0), 56:6 (20:5)) were the potential lipid biomarkers. Fourteen SDLs were modulated downwards, and 29 SDLs were modulated upwards in YM. Moreover, by analyzing lipid metabolic pathways in these SDLs, glycerophospholipid metabolism was the most critical. Our results furnish integral lipid details for evaluating yak milk's nutritional quality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is a major cause of ischemic stroke, and early detection of advanced atherosclerosis in the carotid artery is important for reducing morbidity and mortality. What is even more important is not only detection of atherosclerosis but early determination whether the patients are at high risk of an event with adverse effects as the size of the plaque does not necessarily reflect its potential to trigger such events. AIM We studied whether plasma lipidomics profile can be used as a diagnostic tool for stratification of stable or unstable plaques without the need of removing the carotid plaque. METHODS This study used liquid chromatography high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry lipidomics to characterize lipid profiles in patients' plasma and found that patients with significant and complicated (vulnerable) atherosclerotic plaque had distinct lipid profiles compared to those with insignificant plaques. RESULTS The lipid classes that were most predictive of vulnerable plaque were lysophosphoethanolamines, fatty acyl esters of hydroxy fatty acids, free fatty acids, plasmalogens, and triacylglycerols. Most of these compounds were found decreased in plasma of patients with unstable plaques which enabled sufficient performance of a statistical model used for patient stratification. CONCLUSIONS Plasma lipidomes measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry show differences in patients with stable and unstable carotid plaques, therefore these compounds could potentially be used as biomarkers for unstable plaque in future clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
For either healthy or diseased organisms, lipids are key components for cellular membranes; they play important roles in numerous cellular processes including cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, energy storage and signaling. Exercise and disease development are examples of cellular environment alterations which produce changes in these networks. There are indications that alterations in lipid metabolism contribute to the development and progression of a variety of cancers. Measuring such alterations and understanding the pathways involved is critical to fully understand cellular metabolism. The demands for this information have led to the emergence of lipidomics, which enables the large-scale study of lipids using mass spectrometry (MS) techniques. Mass spectrometry has been widely used in lipidomics and allows us to analyze detailed lipid profiles of cancers. In this article, we discuss emerging strategies for lipidomics by mass spectrometry; targeted, as opposed to global, lipid analysis provides an exciting new alternative method. Additionally, we provide an introduction to lipidomics, lipid categories and their major biological functions, along with lipidomics studies by mass spectrometry in cancer samples. Further, we summarize the importance of lipid metabolism in oncology and tumor microenvironment, some of the challenges for lipodomics, and the potential for targeted approaches for screening pharmaceutical candidates to improve the therapeutic efficacy of treatment in cancer patients.

WATER RESEARCH 2024; 255:121533. [PMID: 38569359 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
Low-pressure mercury lamps emitting at 254 nm (UV254) are used widely for disinfection. However, subsequent exposure to visible light results in photoreactivation of treated bacteria. This study employed a krypton chloride excimer lamp emitting at 222 nm (UV222) to inactivate E. coli. UV222 and UV254 treatment had similar E. coli-inactivation kinetics. Upon subsequent irradiation with visible light, E. coli inactivated by UV254 was reactivated from 2.71-log to 4.75-log, whereas E. coli inactivated by UV222 showed negligible photoreactivation. UV222 treatment irreversibly broke DNA strands in the bacterium, whereas UV254 treatment primarily formed nucleobase dimers. Additionally, UV222 treatment caused cell membrane damage, resulting in wizened, pitted cells and permeability changes. The damage to the cell membrane was mainly due to the photolysis of proteins and lipids by UV222. Furthermore, the photolysis of proteins by UV222 destroyed enzymes, which blocked photoreactivation and dark repair. The multiple damages can be further evidenced by 4.0-61.1 times higher quantum yield in the photolysis of nucleobases and amino acids for UV222 than UV254. This study demonstrates that UV222 treatment damages multiple sites in bacteria, leading to their inactivation. Employing UV222 treatment as an alternative to UV254 could be viable for inhibiting microorganism photoreactivation in water and wastewater.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidylserine (lyso-PS) has emerged as yet another important signaling lysophospholipid in mammals, and deregulation in its metabolism has been directly linked to an array of human autoimmune and neurological disorders. It has an indispensable role in several biological processes in humans, and therefore, cellular concentrations of lyso-PS are tightly regulated to ensure optimal signaling and functioning in physiological settings. Given its biological importance, the past two decades have seen an explosion in the available literature toward our understanding of diverse aspects of lyso-PS metabolism and signaling and its association with human diseases. In this Review, we aim to comprehensively summarize different aspects of lyso-PS, such as its structure, biodistribution, chemical synthesis, and SAR studies with some synthetic analogs. From a biochemical perspective, we provide an exhaustive coverage of the diverse biological activities modulated by lyso-PSs, such as its metabolism and the receptors that respond to them in humans. We also briefly discuss the human diseases associated with aberrant lyso-PS metabolism and signaling and posit some future directions that may advance our understanding of lyso-PS-mediated mammalian physiology.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evidence indicates that sphingolipid accumulation drives complex molecular alterations promoting cardiometabolic diseases. Clinically, it was shown that sphingolipids predict cardiometabolic risk independently of and beyond traditional biomarkers such as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. To date, little is known about therapeutic modalities to lower sphingolipid levels. Exercise, a powerful means to prevent and treat cardiometabolic diseases, is a promising modality to mitigate sphingolipid levels in a cost-effective, safe, and patient-empowering manner. METHODS This randomised controlled trial will explore whether and to what extent an 8-week fitness-enhancing training programme can lower serum sphingolipid levels of middle-aged adults at elevated cardiometabolic risk (n = 98, 50% females). The exercise intervention will consist of supervised high-intensity interval training (three sessions weekly), while the control group will receive physical activity counselling based on current guidelines. Blood will be sampled early in the morning in a fasted state before and after the 8-week programme. Participants will be provided with individualised, pre-packaged meals for the two days preceding blood sampling to minimise potential confounding. An 'omic-scale sphingolipid profiling, using high-coverage reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, will be applied to capture the circulating sphingolipidome. Maximal cardiopulmonary exercise tests will be performed before and after the 8-week programme to assess patient fitness changes. Cholesterol, triglycerides, glycated haemoglobin, the homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, static retinal vessel analysis, flow-mediated dilatation, and strain analysis of the heart cavities will also be assessed pre- and post-intervention. This study shall inform whether and to what extent exercise can be used as an evidence-based treatment to lower circulating sphingolipid levels. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06024291) on August 28, 2023.

Abstract
Due to their valuable nutritional content, several hemp-derived products from hempseeds have recently been placed in the market as food and food ingredients. In particular, the lipid composition of hempseeds has raised interest for their rich content in biologically active polyunsaturated fatty acids with an optimum ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 compounds. At present, however, the overall polar lipidome composition of hempseeds remains largely unknown. In the present work, an analytical platform was developed for the extraction, untargeted HRMS-based analysis, and detailed annotation of the lipid species. First, five one- and two-phase solid-liquid extraction protocols were tested and compared on a hempseed pool sample to select the method that allowed the overall highest efficiency as well as easy coupling with lipid derivatization by photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition with 6-azauracil. Underivatized lipids were annotated employing a data processing workflow on Compound Discoverer software that was specifically designed for polar lipidomics, whereas inspection of the MS/MS spectra of the derivatized lipids following the aza-Paternò-Büchi reaction allowed pinpointing the regiochemistry of carbon-carbon double bonds. A total of 184 lipids were annotated, i.e., 26 fatty acids and 158 phospholipids, including minor subclasses such as N-acylphosphatidylethanolamines. Once the platform was set up, the lipid extracts from nine hempseed samples from different hemp strains were characterized, with information on the regiochemistry of free and conjugated fatty acids. The overall analytical approach helped to fill a gap in the knowledge of the nutritional composition of hempseeds.

Abstract
Lipid membranes and proteins, which are part of us throughout our lives, have been studied for decades. However, every year, new discoveries show how little we know about them. In a reader-friendly manner for people not involved in the field, this paper tries to serve as a bridge between physicists and biologists and new young researchers diving into the field to show its relevance, pointing out just some of the plethora of lines of research yet to be unraveled. It illustrates how new ways, from experimental to theoretical approaches, are needed in order to understand the structures and interactions that take place in a single lipid, protein, or multicomponent system, as we are still only scratching the surface.

Abstract
Lipids are widespread in nature and play a pivotal role as a source of energy and nutrition for the human body. Vegetable oils (VOs) constitute a significant category in the food industry, containing various lipid components that have garnered attention for being natural, environmentally friendly and health-promoting. The review presented the classification of raw materials (RMs) from oil crops and quality analysis techniques of VOs, with the aim of improving comprehension and facilitating in-depth research of VOs. Brief descriptions were provided for four categories of VOs, and quality analysis techniques for both RMs and VOs were generalized. Furthermore, this study discussed the applications of lipidomics technology in component analysis, processing and utilization, quality determination, as well as nutritional function assessment of VOs. Through reviewing RMs and quality analysis techniques of VOs, this study aims to encourage further refinement and development in the processing and utilization of VOs, offering valuable references for theoretical and applied research in food chemistry and food science.

This study aimed to assess how Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium co-fermented feed (FF) affects the antioxidant capacity, muscle fibre types and muscle lipid profiles of finishing pigs. In this study, a total of 144 Duroc × Berkshire × Jiaxing Black finishing pigs were randomly assigned into three groups with four replicates (twelve pigs per replication). The three treatments were a basal diet (0 % FF), basal diet + 5 % FF and basal diet + 10 % FF, respectively. The experiment lasted 38 d after 4 d of acclimation. The study revealed that 10 % FF significantly increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) compared with 0 % FF group, with mRNA levels of up-regulated antioxidant-related genes (GPX1, SOD1, SOD2 and CAT) in 10 % FF group. 10 % FF also significantly up-regulated the percentage of slow-twitch fibre and the mRNA expression of MyHC I, MyHC IIa and MyHC IIx, and slow MyHC protein expression while reducing MyHC IIb mRNA expression. Lipidomics analysis showed that 5 % FF and 10 % FF altered lipid profiles in longissimus thoracis. 10 % FF particularly led to an increase in the percentage of TAG. The Pearson correlation analysis indicated that certain molecular markers such as phosphatidic acid (PA) (49:4), Hex2Cer (d50:6), cardiolipin (CL) (72:8) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) (33:0e) could be used to indicate the characteristics of muscle fibres and were closely related to meat quality. Together, our findings suggest that 10 % FF improved antioxidant capacity, enhanced slow-twitch fibre percentage and altered muscle lipid profiles in finishing pigs.

Abstract
Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by worm parasites of the genus Schistosoma. Upon infection, parasite eggs can lodge inside of host organs like the liver. This leads to granuloma formation, which is the main cause of the pathology of schistosomiasis. To better understand the different levels of host-pathogen interaction and pathology, our study focused on the characterization of glycosphingolipids (GSLs). For this purpose, GSLs in livers of infected and noninfected hamsters were studied by combining high-spatial-resolution atmospheric-pressure scanning microprobe matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (AP-SMALDI MSI) with nanoscale hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (nano-HILIC MS/MS). Nano-HILIC MS/MS revealed 60 GSL species with a distinct saccharide and ceramide composition. AP-SMALDI MSI measurements were conducted in positive- and negative-ion mode for the visualization of neutral and acidic GSLs. Based on nano-HILIC MS/MS results, we discovered no downregulated but 50 significantly upregulated GSLs in liver samples of infected hamsters. AP-SMALDI MSI showed that 44 of these GSL species were associated with the granulomas in the liver tissue. Our findings suggest an important role of GSLs during granuloma formation.

Social stress-induced depressive-like symptoms and changes in gut microbial and lipidomic profiles are prevented by pharmacological inhibition of FAAH activity in male rats.

Abstract
Pharmacological inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) activity has antidepressant-like effects in preclinical models of stress. In this study, we investigated whether the antidepressant-like effects of FAAH inhibition are associated with corresponding changes in gut microbial and lipidomic profiles, which are emerging as critical components in the pathophysiology of depression. Adult male Wistar rats experienced five weeks of repeated social defeat or control procedure and were treated with the FAAH inhibitor URB694 (0.3 mg/kg/day, i.p.) or vehicle starting from the third week. Repeated social defeat induced the emergence of depressive-like behavioral (sucrose preference reduction and passive coping behaviors in the forced swim test) and neuroendocrine (increased corticosterone levels) changes, which were prevented by URB694 treatment. Repeated social defeat also provoked a significant variation in gut microbiota (changes in the relative abundance of 14 bacterial taxa) and lipidic (e.g., glycerophospholipids) composition. These stress-induced changes were prevented by URB694 treatment. These findings indicate that inhibition of FAAH activity with URB694 blocks the co-occurrence of depressive-like behavioral and neuroendocrine changes and alterations in gut microbial and lipid composition in rats exposed to repeated social defeat. In conclusion, these results suggest that the gut microbiota-lipid crosstalk may represent a novel biological target for FAAH inhibitors to enhance stress resilience.

Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) is a vital modulatory neurotransmitter responsible for regulating most behaviors in the brain. An inefficient 5-HT synaptic function is often linked to various mental disorders. Primarily, membrane proteins controlling the expression and activity of 5-HT synthesis, storage, release, receptor activation, and inactivation are critical to 5-HT signaling in synaptic and extra-synaptic sites. Moreover, these signals represent information transmission across membranes. Although the lipid membrane environment is often viewed as fairly stable, emerging research suggests significant functional lipid-protein interactions with many synaptic 5-HT proteins. These protein-lipid interactions extend to almost all the primary lipid classes that form the plasma membrane. Collectively, these lipid classes and lipid-protein interactions affect 5-HT synaptic efficacy at the synapse. The highly dynamic lipid composition of synaptic membranes suggests that these lipids and their interactions with proteins may contribute to the plasticity of the 5-HT synapse. Therefore, this broader protein-lipid model of the 5-HT synapse necessitates a reconsideration of 5-HT's role in various associated mental disorders.

Abstract
In eukaryotes, the de novo synthesis of sphingolipids (SLs) consists of multiple sequential steps which are compartmentalized between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. Studies over many decades have identified the enzymes in the pathway, their localization, topology and an array of regulatory mechanisms. However, little is known about the evolutionary forces that underly the generation of this complex pathway or of its anteome, i.e., the metabolic pathways that converge on the SL biosynthetic pathway and are essential for its activity. After briefly describing the pathway, we discuss the mechanisms by which the enzymes of the SL biosynthetic pathway are targeted to their different subcellular locations, how the pathway per se may have evolved, including its compartmentalization, and the relationship of the pathway to eukaryogenesis. We discuss the circular interdependence of the evolution of the SL pathway, and comment on whether current Darwinian evolutionary models are able to provide genuine mechanistic insight into how the pathway came into being.

Abstract
The cellular lipidome comprises thousands of unique lipid species. Here, using mass spectrometry-based targeted lipidomics, we characterize the lipid landscape of human and mouse immune cells ( www.cellularlipidatlas.com ). Using this resource, we show that immune cells have unique lipidomic signatures and that processes such as activation, maturation and development impact immune cell lipid composition. To demonstrate the potential of this resource to provide insights into immune cell biology, we determine how a cell-specific lipid trait-differences in the abundance of polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing glycerophospholipids (PUFA-PLs)-influences immune cell biology. First, we show that differences in PUFA-PL content underpin the differential susceptibility of immune cells to ferroptosis. Second, we show that low PUFA-PL content promotes resistance to ferroptosis in activated neutrophils. In summary, we show that the lipid landscape is a defining feature of immune cell identity and that cell-specific lipid phenotypes underpin aspects of immune cell physiology.

Abstract
The present study used a comprehensive analysis combining headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) to investigate changes in volatile compounds and phospholipid molecules in grilled lambs. The results revealed 19 key volatile compounds (OAV > 1) involved in the grilling process of lambs. Additionally, UPLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis detected 142 phospholipid molecules in grilled lamb, with phosphatidylcholine exhibiting the highest content (36.62 %), followed by phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidyl glycerol, and phosphatidic acid. Through partial least squares analysis, 63 key differential phospholipids were identified. Principal component analysis of the key differential phospholipids and volatile compounds indicated that phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidyl ethanolamine phospholipids are the key substrates in forming volatile compounds in grilled lambs. This information is essential for precisely regulating the flavor profile, enhancing the grilling process, and minimizing the production of harmful compounds in grilled meat products.

Abstract
Gestational hyperandrogenism is a risk factor for adverse maternal and offspring outcomes with effects likely mediated in part via disruptions in maternal lipid homeostasis. Using a translationally relevant sheep model of gestational testosterone (T) excess that manifests maternal hyperinsulinemia, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), and adverse offspring cardiometabolic outcomes, we tested if gestational T excess disrupts maternal lipidome. Dimensionality reduction models following shotgun lipidomics of gestational day 127.1 ± 5.3 (term 147 days) plasma revealed clear differences between control and T-treated sheep. Lipid signatures of gestational T-treated sheep included higher phosphoinositides (PI 36:2, 39:4) and lower acylcarnitines (CAR 16:0, 18:0, 18:1), phosphatidylcholines (PC 38:4, 40:5) and fatty acids (linoleic, arachidonic, Oleic). Gestational T excess activated phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) and PI biosynthesis. The reduction in key fatty acids may underlie IUGR and activated PI for the maternal hyperinsulinemia evidenced in this model. Maternal circulatory lipids contributing to adverse cardiometabolic outcomes are modifiable by dietary interventions.

Abstract
The human skeleton is a metabolically active system that is constantly regenerating via the tightly regulated and highly coordinated processes of bone resorption and formation. Emerging evidence reveals fascinating new insights into the role of sphingolipids, including sphingomyelin, sphingosine, ceramide, and sphingosine-1-phosphate, in bone homeostasis. Sphingolipids are a major class of highly bioactive lipids able to activate distinct protein targets including, lipases, phosphatases, and kinases, thereby conferring distinct cellular functions beyond energy metabolism. Lipids are known to contribute to the progression of chronic inflammation, and notably, an increase in bone marrow adiposity parallel to elevated bone loss is observed in most pathological bone conditions, including aging, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and osteomyelitis. Of the numerous classes of lipids that form, sphingolipids are considered among the most deleterious. This review highlights the important primary role of sphingolipids in bone homeostasis and how dysregulation of these bioactive metabolites appears central to many chronic bone-related diseases. Further, their contribution to the invasion, virulence, and colonization of both viral and bacterial host cell infections is also discussed. Many unmet clinical needs remain, and data to date suggest the future use of sphingolipid-targeted therapy to regulate bone dysfunction due to a variety of diseases or infection are highly promising. However, deciphering the biochemical and molecular mechanisms of this diverse and extremely complex sphingolipidome, both in terms of bone health and disease, is considered the next frontier in the field.

Abstract
The limited availability of phosphate, nitrogen and silicon in the growth media affects the growth, cellular processes, and metabolism of diatoms. Silicon deficiency primarily affects diatom morphology, while phosphate deficiency reduces the production of nucleic acids and phospholipids. Differences in pigment and protein composition are mainly due to nitrogen deficiency. In this study, Chaetoceros socialis and Chaetoceros costatus were cultured under phosphate, nitrogen, and silicon deprivation conditions. The diatom biomass was collected during the stationary growth phase and extracted with 70% ethanol under ultrasonication. The chemical profiles of the extracts were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography with high-resolution mass spectrometry with electrospray ionisation (UHPLC-ESI-HRMS), while the antioxidant capacity was determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assays. Pigments, fatty acids, sterols, and derivatives were detected in both species. The total phenolic content in the extracts ranged from 46.25 ± 1.08 to 89.38 ± 6.21 mg of gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/L and from 29.58 ± 1.08 to 54.17 ± 1.18 mg GAE/L. for C. costatus and C. socialis, respectively. Antioxidant activity was higher in C. costatus extracts, especially those obtained from nitrogen-deprived media. The results of this study contribute to the existing knowledge and the ongoing efforts to overcome application and commercialization barriers of microalgae for wide-ranging potential in different industries.

LC-ESI-HRMS - lipidomics of phospholipids : Characterization of extraction, chromatography and detection parameters. Anal Bioanal Chem 2024; 416:925-944.

Abstract
Lipids are a diverse class of molecules involved in many biological functions including cell signaling or cell membrane assembly. Owing to this relevance, LC-MS/MS-based lipidomics emerged as a major field in modern analytical chemistry. Here, we thoroughly characterized the influence of MS and LC settings - of a Q Exactive HF operated in Full MS/data-dependent MS2 TOP N acquisition mode - in order to optimize the semi-quantification of polar lipids. Optimization of MS-source settings improved the signal intensity by factor 3 compared to default settings. Polar lipids were separated on an ACQUITY Premier CSH C18 reversed-phase column (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 µm, 130 Å) during an elution window of 28 min, leading to a sufficient number of both data points across the chromatographic peaks, as well as MS2 spectra. Analysis was carried out in positive and negative ionization mode enabling the detection of a broader spectrum of lipids and to support the structural characterization of lipids. Optimal sample preparation of biological samples was achieved by liquid-liquid extraction using MeOH/MTBE resulting in an excellent extraction recovery > 85% with an intra-day and inter-day variability < 15%. The optimized method was applied on the investigation of changes in the phospholipid pattern in plasma from human subjects supplemented with n3-PUFA (20:5 and 22:6). The strongest increase was observed for lipids bearing 20:5, while 22:4 bearing lipids were lowered. Specifically, LPC 20:5_0:0 and PC 16:0_20:5 were found to be strongest elevated, while PE 18:0_22:4 and PC 18:2_18:2 were decreased by n3-PUFA supplementation. These results were confirmed by targeted LC-MS/MS using commercially available phospholipids as standards.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) account for the largest bulk of deaths worldwide, posing a massive burden on societies and the global healthcare system. Besides, the incidence and prevalence of these diseases are on the rise, demanding imminent action to revert this trend. Cardiovascular pathogenesis harbors a variety of molecular and cellular mechanisms among which dysregulated metabolism is of significant importance and may even proceed other mechanisms. The healthy heart metabolism primarily relies on fatty acids for the ultimate production of energy through oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. Other metabolites such as glucose, amino acids, and ketone bodies come next. Under pathological conditions, there is a shift in metabolic pathways and the preference of metabolites, termed metabolic remodeling or reprogramming. In this review, we aim to summarize cardiovascular metabolism and remodeling in different subsets of CVD to come up with a new paradigm for understanding and treatment of these diseases.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genetic variants are most notably known for their divergent impact on the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. While APOE genotype has been consistently shown to modulate lipid metabolism in a variety of cellular contexts, the effect of APOE alleles on the lipidome in hepatocytes is unknown. In this study, we investigated the contribution of APOE alleles to lipidomic profiles of donor-derived primary human hepatocytes from 77 subjects. Lipidomic data obtained by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry were analyzed across ε2/ε3, ε3/ε3, and ε3/ε4 genotypes to reveal how APOE modulates lipid relative levels over age and between groups. Hepatic APOE concentration, measured by ELISA, was assessed for correlation with lipid abundance in subjects grouped as per APOE genotype and sex. APOE genotype-specific differential lipidomic signatures associated with age for multiple lipid classes but did not differ between sexes. Compared to ε2/ε3, ε3/ε4 hepatocytes had higher abundance of acylcarnitines (AC) and acylphosphatidylglycerol (AcylPG) as a class, as well as higher medium and long-chain ACs, AcylPG, phosphatidylglycerol (PG), bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate (BMP), monoacylglycerol (MG) and diacylglycerol (DG) species. The ε3/ε4 hepatocytes also exhibited a higher abundance of medium and long-chain ACs compared to the ε3/ε3 hepatocytes. Only in the ε3/ε4 hepatocytes, APOE concentration was lower and showed a negative correlation with BMP levels, specifically in females. APOE genotype dictates a differential lipidome in primary human hepatocytes. The lipids involved suggest mitochondrial dysfunction with accompanying alterations in neutral lipid storage, reflective of a general disturbance of free fatty acid metabolism in human hepatocytes with the ε4 allele.
