    Abstract Ion suppression is a major problem in mass spectrometry (MS)-based metabolomics; it can dramatically decrease measurement accuracy, precision, and signal-to-noise sensitivity. Here we report a new method, the IROA TruQuant Workflow, that uses a stable isotope-labeled internal standard (IROA-IS) plus novel companion algorithms to 1) measure and correct for ion suppression, and 2) perform Dual MSTUS normalization of MS metabolomic data. We have evaluated the method across ion chromatography (IC), hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC), and reverse phase liquid chromatography (RPLC)-MS systems in both positive and negative ionization modes, with clean and unclean ion sources, and across different biological matrices. Across the broad range of conditions tested, all detected metabolites exhibited ion suppression ranging from 1% to 90+% and coefficient of variations ranging from 1% to 20%, but the Workflow and companion algorithms were highly effective at nulling out that suppression and error. Overall, the Workflow corrects ion suppression across diverse analytical conditions and produces robust normalization of non-targeted metabolomic data.

    Abstract Glycosylation, an essential post-translational protein modification, is known to be altered in a variety of diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders that results in cognitive and memory impairments. To investigate the progression of such a condition, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a unique biofluid that may possess significant biochemical and neurochemical changes due to the disease, is utilized. However, due to the low concentration of proteins in CSF, a large volume of the biofluid is often required to comprehensively characterize the glycome in CSF. In this work, a glycomic study of CSF was performed using as little as 10 μL of CSF. This approach was executed with permethylation of released N-glycans with minimal sample cleanup, in conjunction with an online purification system attached to liquid chromatography and a high-resolution mass spectrometer. This technique was then applied to clinical samples. Preliminary data suggest that fucosylated and bisecting GlcNAc structures were higher in abundances in females with AD, while both females and males exhibited lower abundances of high-mannose structures. Although there seems to be statistically significant differences between disease state and disease-free CSF, due to the lack of number of samples, further validation study should be conducted.

    Abstract Antibiotic therapy, especially when administered long term, is associated with adverse hematologic effects such as cytopenia. Signals from the intestinal microbiota are critical to maintain normal hematopoiesis, and antibiotics can cause bone marrow suppression through depletion of the microbiota. We reported previously that STAT1 signaling is necessary for microbiota-dependent hematopoiesis, but the precise mechanisms by which the gut microbiota signals to the host bone marrow to regulate hematopoiesis remain undefined. We sought to identify the cell type(s) through which STAT1 promotes microbiota-mediated hematopoiesis and to elucidate which upstream signaling pathways trigger STAT1 signaling. Using conditional knockout and chimeric mice, we found that the microbiota induced STAT1 signaling in non-myeloid hematopoietic cells to support hematopoiesis and that STAT1 signaling was specifically dependent on type I interferons (IFNs). Indeed, basal type I IFN signaling was reduced in hematopoietic progenitor cells with antibiotic treatment. In addition, we discovered that oral administration of a commensal-derived product, NOD1 ligand, rescues the hematopoietic defects induced by antibiotics in mice. Using metabolomics, we identified additional microbially produced candidates that can stimulate type I IFN signaling to potentially rescue the hematopoietic defects induced by antibiotics, including phosphatidylcholine and γ-glutamylalanine. Overall, our studies define a signaling pathway through which microbiota promotes normal hematopoiesis and identify microbial metabolites that may serve as therapeutic agents to ameliorate antibiotic-induced bone marrow suppression and cytopenia.

    Abstract Glycomics continues to be a highly dynamic and interesting research area due to the need to comprehensively understand the biological attributes of glycosylation in many important biological functions such as the immune response, cell development, cell differentiation/adhesion, and host-pathogen interactions. Although matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) has proven to be suitable for glycomic profiling studies, there is a need for improved sensitivity in the detection of native glycans, which ionize inefficiently. In this study, we investigated the efficiencies of graphene nanosheets (GNs) and carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) as MALDI matrices and co-matrices in glycan profiling. Our results indicated an enhancement of signal intensity by several orders of magnitude upon using GNs and CNPs in MALDI analysis of N-glycans derived from a variety of biological samples. Interestingly, increasing the amounts of CNPs and GNs improved not only the signal intensities but also prompted in-source decay (ISD) fragmentations, which produced extensive glycosidic and cross-ring cleavages. Our results indicated that the extent of ISD fragmentation could be modulated by CNP and GN concentrations, to obtain MS

    Abstract Carboxylesterase 1d (Ces1d) is a crucial enzyme with a wide range of activities in multiple tissues. It has been reported to localize predominantly in ER. Here, we found that Ces1d levels are significantly increased in obese patients with type 2 diabetes. Intriguingly, a high level of Ces1d translocates onto lipid droplets where it digests the lipids to produce a unique set of fatty acids. We further revealed that adipose tissue-specific Ces1d knock-out (FKO) mice gained more body weight with increased fat mass during a high fat-diet challenge. The FKO mice exhibited impaired glucose and lipid metabolism and developed exacerbated liver steatosis. Mechanistically, deficiency of Ces1d induced abnormally large lipid droplet deposition in the adipocytes, causing ectopic accumulation of triglycerides in other peripheral tissues. Furthermore, loss of Ces1d diminished the circulating free fatty acids serving as signaling molecules to trigger the epigenetic regulations of energy metabolism via lipid-sensing transcriptional factors, such as HNF4α. The metabolic disorders induced an unhealthy microenvironment in the metabolically active tissues, ultimately leading to systemic insulin resistance.

    Abstract Protein glycosylation is a common post-translational modification that has significant impacts on protein folding, lifespan, conformation, distribution and function. N-Glycans, which are attached to asparagine residues of proteins, are studied most often due to their compatibility with enzymatic release. Despite the ease of N-glycan release, compositional and structural complexity coupled with poor ionization efficiency during liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) make quantitative glycomic studies a significant challenge. To overcome these challenges, glycans are almost always derivatized prior to LC-MS analyses to impart favorable characteristics, such as improved ionization efficiency, increased LC separation efficiency and the production of more informative fragments during tandem MS. There are a number of derivatization methods available for LC-MS analysis of glycans, each of which imparts different properties that affect both glycan retention on LC columns and MS analyses. To provide guidance for the proper selection of derivatizing reagents and LC columns, herein, we describe a comprehensive assessment of 2-aminobenzamide, procainamide, aminoxyTMT, RapiFluor-MS (RFMS) labeling, reduction and reduction with permethylation for N-glycan analysis. Of the derivatization strategies examined, RFMS provided the highest MS signal enhancement for neutral glycans, while permethylation significantly enhanced the MS intensity and structural stability of sialylated glycans.

    Abstract The biosynthesis of glycans is a template-free process; hence compositionally identical glycans may contain highly heterogeneous structures. Meanwhile, the functions of glycans in biological processes are significantly influenced by the glycan structure. Structural elucidation of glycans is an essential component of glycobiology. Although NMR is considered the most powerful approach for structural glycan studies, it suffers from low sensitivity and requires highly purified glycans. Although mass spectrometry (MS)-based methods have been applied in numerous glycan structure studies, there are challenges in preserving glycan structure during ionization. Permethylation is an efficient derivatization method that improves glycan structural stability. In this report, permethylated glycans are isomerically separated; thus facilitating structural analysis of a mixture of glycans by LC-MS/MS. Separation by porous graphitic carbon liquid chromatography at high temperatures in conjunction with tandem mass spectrometry (PGC-LC-MS/MS) was utilized for unequivocal characterization of glycan isomers. Glycan fucosylation sites were confidently determined by eliminating fucose rearrangement and assignment of diagnostic ions, achieved by permethylation and PGC-LC at high temperatures, respectively. Assigning monosaccharide residues to specific glycan antennae was also achieved. Galactose linkages were also distinguished from each other by CID/HCD tandem MS. This was attainable because of the different bond energies associated with monosaccharide linkages. Graphical Abstract LC-MS and tandem MS of terminal galactose isomers.

    Abstract The characterization of glycosylation is critical for obtaining a comprehensive view of the regulation and functions of glycoproteins of interest. Due to the complex nature of oligosaccharides, stemming from variable compositions and linkages, and ion suppression effects, the chromatographic separation of glycans, including isomeric structures, is necessary for exhaustive characterization by MS. This review introduces the fundamental principles underlying the techniques in LC utilized by modern day glycomics researchers. Recent advances in porous graphitized carbon, reverse phase, ion exchange, and hydrophilic interaction LC utilized in conjunction with MS, for the characterization of protein glycosylation, are described with an emphasis on methods capable of resolving isomeric glycan structures.

    Abstract Novel biomarkers for HCC surveillance in cirrhotic patients are urgently needed. Exosomes and their lipid content in particular represent potentially valuable noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers. We isolated exosomes from plasma of 72 cirrhotic patients, including 31 with HCC. Exosomes and unfractionated plasma were processed for untargeted lipidomics using ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry. A total of 2,864 lipid species, belonging to 52 classes, were identified. Both exosome fractionation and HCC diagnosis had significant impact on the lipid profiles. Ten lipid classes were enriched in HCC exosomes compared with non-HCC exosomes. Dilysocardiolipins were detected in 35% of the HCC exosomes but in none of the non-HCC exosomes (
