  Herbal teas and beverages have gained global attention because they are rich in natural bioactive compounds, which are known to have diverse biological effects, including antioxidant and anticarcinogenic properties. However, the lipidomic profiles of herbal teas remain unclear. In this study, we applied an untargeted lipidomics approach using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometry to comprehensively profile, compare, and identify unknown lipids in four herbal teas: dokudami, kumazasa, sugina, and yomogi. A total of 341 molecular species from five major classes of lipids were identified. Multivariate principal component analysis revealed distinct lipid compositions for each of the herbs. The fatty acid α-linolenic acid (FA 18:3) was found to be abundant in kumazasa, whereas arachidonic acid (FA 20:4) was the most abundant in sugina. Interestingly, novel lipids were discovered for the first time in plants; specifically, short-chain fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (SFAHFAs) with 4-hydroxy phenyl nonanoic acid as the structural core. This study provides insight into the lipidomic diversity and potential bioactive lipid components of herbal teas, offering a foundation for further research into their health-promoting properties and biological significance.

  Sphingomyelin synthase (SMS) is a sphingolipid-metabolizing enzyme involved in the de novo synthesis of sphingomyelin (SM) from ceramide (Cer). Recent studies have indicated that SMS is a key therapeutic target for metabolic diseases such as fatty liver, type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, and colorectal cancer. However, very few SMS inhibitors have been identified because of the limited sensitivity and selectivity of the current fluorescence-based screening assay. In this study, we developed a simple cell-based assay coupled with liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to screen for SMS inhibitors. HeLa cells stably expressing SMS1 or SMS2 were used for the screening. A non-fluorescent unnatural C6-Cer was used as a substrate for SMS to produce C6-SM. C6-Cer and C6-SM levels in the cells were monitored and quantified using LC-MS/MS. The activity of ginkgolic acid C15:1 (GA), a known SMS inhibitor, was measured. GA had half-maximal inhibitory concentrations of 5.5 μM and 3.6 μM for SMS1 and SMS2, respectively. To validate these findings, hSMS1 and hSMS2 proteins were optimized for molecular docking studies. In silico analyses were conducted to assess the interaction of GA with SMS1 and SMS2, and its binding affinity. This study offers an analytical approach for screening novel SMS inhibitors and provides in silico support for the experimental findings.

  Sea cucumbers are a rich source of bioactive compounds and are gaining popularity as nutrient-rich seafood. They are consumed as a whole organism in Pacific regions. However, limited data are available on the comparison of their lipid composition and nutritional value. In this study, untargeted liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry was applied to comprehensively profile lipids in the skin, meat, and intestinal contents of three color-distinct edible sea cucumbers. Multivariate principal component analysis revealed that the lipid composition of the intestinal contents of red, black, and blue sea cucumbers differs from that of skin, and meats. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are abundant in the intestinal contents, followed by meats of sea cucumber. Lipid nutritional quality assessments based on fatty acid composition revealed a high P:S ratio, low index of atherogenicity, and high health promotion indices for the intestinal contents of red sea cucumber, suggesting its potential health benefits. In addition, hierarchical cluster analysis revealed that the intestinal contents of sea cucumbers were relatively high in PUFA-enriched phospholipids and lysophospholipids. Ceramides are abundant in black skin, blue meat, and red intestinal content samples. Overall, this study provides the first insights into a comprehensive regio-specific profile of the lipid content of sea cucumbers and their potential use as a source of lipid nutrients in food and nutraceuticals.

  Consumption of alcohol has widespread effects on the human body. The organs that are most significantly impacted are the liver and digestive system. When alcohol is consumed, it is absorbed in the intestines and processed by the liver. However, excessive alcohol use may affect gut epithelial integrity, microbiome composition, and lipid metabolism. Despite past studies investigating the effect of ethanol on hepatic lipid metabolism, the focus on colonic lipid metabolism has not been well explored. In this study, we investigated the sex-specific effect of ethanol on the colonic content lipidome in a mouse model using nontargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Comprehensive lipidome analysis of colonic flush samples was performed using ethanol-fed (EF) and pair-fed (PF) mice of each sex. Partial least-squares discriminant analysis revealed that ethanol altered colonic lipid composition largely in male mice compared with female mice. A significant increase in free fatty acids, ceramides, and hexosylceramides and decreased phosphatidylglycerols (PG) was observed in the EF group compared to the PF group in male mice. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) levels were increased significantly in the EF group of both sexes compared to the PF group. The volcanic plot shows that PG (O-15:1/15:0) and PE (O-18:2/15:0) are common markers that are increased in both sexes of the EF group. In addition, decreased fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA) were observed specifically in the EF group of female mice. Overall, a significant variation in the mice colonic content lipidome between the EF and PF groups was observed. Target pathways, such as sphingolipid metabolism in males, FAHFA in females, and PE metabolism in both sexes, were suggested. This study provides new insight into the sex-dependent lipid change associated with alcohol-induced gut-microbiota dysfunction and its potential health impacts.

  Lipid transport is an essential cellular process with importance to human health, disease development, and therapeutic strategies. Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) have been identified as membrane lipid flippases by utilizing nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD)-labeled lipids as substrates. Among the 14 human type IV P-type ATPases, ATP10D was shown to flip NBD-glucosylceramide (GlcCer) across the plasma membrane. Here, we found that conversion of incorporated GlcCer (d18:1/12:0) to other sphingolipids is accelerated in cells exogenously expressing ATP10D but not its ATPase-deficient mutant. These findings suggest that 1) ATP10D flips unmodified GlcCer as well as NBD-GlcCer at the plasma membrane and 2) ATP10D can translocate extracellular GlcCer, which is subsequently converted to other metabolites. Notably, exogenous expression of ATP10D led to the reduction in cellular hexosylceramide levels. Moreover, the expression of GlcCer flippases, including ATP10D, also reduced cellular hexosylceramide levels in fibroblasts derived from patients with Gaucher disease, which is a lysosomal storage disorder with excess GlcCer accumulation. Our study highlights the contribution of ATP10D to the regulation of cellular GlcCer levels and maintaining lipid homeostasis.

  Gaucher disease (GD) is a recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by a deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GBA1). This deficiency results in the accumulation of its substrate, glucosylceramide (GlcCer), within lysosomes. Here, we investigated lysosomal abnormalities in fibroblasts derived from patients with GD. It is noteworthy that the cellular distribution of lysosomes and lysosomal proteolytic activity remained largely unaffected in GD fibroblasts. However, we found that lysosomal membranes of GD fibroblasts were susceptible to damage when exposed to a lysosomotropic agent. Moreover, the susceptibility of lysosomal membranes to a lysosomotropic agent could be partly restored by exogenous expression of wild-type GBA1. Here, we report that the lysosomal membrane integrity is altered in GD fibroblasts, but lysosomal distribution and proteolytic activity is not significantly altered.Key words: glucosylceramide, lysosome, Gaucher disease, lysosomotropic agent.

  Although influenza virus infection has been shown to affect lipid metabolism, details remain unknown. Therefore, we elucidated the kinetic lipid profiles of mice infected with different doses of influenza virus A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) (PR8) by measuring multiple lipid molecular species using untargeted lipidomic analysis. C57BL/6 male mice were intranasally infected with PR8 virus at 50 or 500 plaque-forming units to cause sublethal or lethal influenza, respectively. Plasma and tissue samples were collected at 1, 3, and 6 days post-infection (dpi), and comprehensive lipidomic analysis was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography-linear trap quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry, as well as gene expression analyses. The most prominent feature of the lipid profile in lethally infected mice was the elevated plasma concentrations of phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) containing polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) at 3 dpi. Furthermore, the facilitation of PUFA-containing phospholipid production in the lungs, but not in the liver, was suggested by gene expression and lipidomic analysis of tissue samples. Given the increased plasma or serum levels of PUFA-containing PEs in patients with other viral infections, especially in severe cases, the elevation of these phospholipids in circulation could be a biomarker of infection and the severity of infectious diseases.

  Plasmalogen, a functional glycerophospholipid, is known for its beneficial nutritional effects, such as anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation. As the porcine brain is a plasmalogen-rich resource, this study aimed to explore its potential for plasmalogen-based health food product development, with special attention on whether and how the industrial production processes influence the plasmalogen content and composition. In the present work, plasmalogens from different porcine brain products were investigated using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The results indicated that all the porcine brain products showed abundant total plasmalogens, of which more than 95% were ethanolamine plasmalogen species. Acetone precipitation, ethanol extraction, and drying did not significantly affect the plasmalogen content, whereas repeated freeze-thaw cycles in the production process led to noticeable loss. The chemometric investigation suggested that raw products and glycerophospholipid products exhibited different profiles; furthermore, the concentration step seemed to impact the plasmalogen composition. The nutritional assessment revealed that porcine brain products showed favorable values of multiple indexes, including PUFA/SFA ratio, n-6/n-3 ratio, thrombogenicity index, and unsaturation index, suggesting a health-beneficial value. The current study not only shows the feasibility of producing porcine brain-derived plasmalogens, but also provides possible strategies for developing and quality-controlling dietary plasmalogen supplements and healthcare products.

  Beans, a globally significant economic and nutritional food crop, are rich in polyphenolic chemicals with potential health advantages, providing high protein, fiber, minerals, and vitamins. However, studies on the global profiling of lipids in beans are limited. We applied a non-targeted lipidomic approach based on high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (HPLC/LTQ-Orbitrap-MS) to comprehensively profile and compare the lipids in six distinct bean cultivars, namely, adzuki red beans-adzuki cultivar (ARB-AC), adzuki red beans-Benidainagon cultivar (ARB-BC), adzuki red beans-Erimoshouzu cultivar (ARB-EC), soybean-Fukuyutaka cultivar 2021 (SB-FC21), soybean-Fukuyutaka cultivar 2022 (SB-FC22), and soybean-Oosuzu cultivar (SB-OC). MS/MS analysis defined 144 molecular species from four main lipid groups. Multivariate principal component analysis indicated unique lipid compositions in the cultivars except for ARB-BC and ARB-EC. Evaluation of the concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acid to saturated fatty acid ratio among all the cultivars showed that SB-FC21 and SB-FC22 had the highest value, suggesting they are the most beneficial for health. Furthermore, lipids such as acyl sterol glycosides were detected and characterized for the first time in these bean cultivars. Hierarchical cluster correlations revealed the predominance of ceramides in ARB-EC, lysophospholipids in SB-FC21, and glycerophospholipids in SB-OC. This study comprehensively investigated lipids and their compositions in beans, indicating their potential utility in the nutritional evaluation of beans as functional foods.

  The kidney contains numerous mitochondria in proximal tubular cells that provide energy for tubular secretion and reabsorption. Mitochondrial injury and consequent excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production can cause tubular damage and play a major role in the pathogenesis of kidney diseases, including diabetic nephropathy. Accordingly, bioactive compounds that protect the renal tubular mitochondria from ROS are desirable. Here, we aimed to report 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA), isolated from the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) as a potentially useful compound. In human renal tubular HK-2 cells, DHMBA significantly mitigated the cytotoxicity induced by the ROS inducer L-buthionine-(S, R)-sulfoximine (BSO). DHMBA reduced the mitochondrial ROS production and subsequently regulated mitochondrial homeostasis, including mitochondrial biogenesis, fusion/fission balance, and mitophagy; DHMBA also enhanced mitochondrial respiration in BSO-treated cells. These findings highlight the potential of DHMBA to protect renal tubular mitochondrial function against oxidative stress.

  Sleep is a fundamental medicine for cardiac homeostasis, and sleep-deprived individuals are prone to higher incidences of heart attack. The lipid-dense diet (obesogenic diet-OBD) is a cumulative risk factor for chronic inflammation in cardiovascular disease; thus, understanding how sleep fragmentation (SF) in an obesity setting impacts immune and cardiac health is an unmet medical need. We hypothesized whether the co-existence of SF with OBD dysregulates gut homeostasis and leukocyte-derived reparative/resolution mediators, thereby impairing cardiac repair. Two-month-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomized first into two groups, then four groups; Control, control + SF, OBD, and OBD + SF mice subjected to myocardial infarction (MI). OBD mice had higher levels of plasma linolenic acid with a decrease in eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acid. The OBD mice had lower Lactobacillus johnsonii indicating a loss of probiotic microbiota. SF in OBD mice increased Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio indicative of a detrimental change in SF-directed microbiome. OBD + SF group increased in the neutrophil: lymphocyte ratio suggestive of suboptimal inflammation. As a result of SF, resolution mediators (RvD2, RvD3, RvD5, LXA4 , PD1, and MaR1) decreased and inflammatory mediators (PGD2 , PGE2 , PGF2a , 6k-PGF1a ) were increased in OBD mice post-MI. At the site of infarction, the proinflammatory cytokines Ccl2, IL1β, and IL-6 were amplified in OBD + SF indicating a robust proinflammatory milieu post-MI. Also, brain circadian genes (Bmal1, Clock) were downregulated in SF-subjected control mice, but remained elevated in OBD mice post-MI. SF superimposed on obesity dysregulated physiological inflammation and disrupted resolving response thereby impaired cardiac repair and signs of pathological inflammation.

  Mass spectrometry reviews 2023年04月27日 

  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.
• Oxidized Low-Density Lipoproteins Trigger Hepatocellular Oxidative Stress with the Formation of Cholesteryl Ester Hydroperoxide-Enriched Lipid Droplets.

  Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) induce oxidative stress in the liver tissue, leading to hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis. Precise information on the role of oxLDL in this process is needed to establish strategies for the prevention and management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Here, we report the effects of native LDL (nLDL) and oxLDL on lipid metabolism, lipid droplet formation, and gene expression in a human liver-derived C3A cell line. The results showed that nLDL induced lipid droplets enriched with cholesteryl ester (CE) and promoted triglyceride hydrolysis and inhibited oxidative degeneration of CE in association with the altered expression of LIPE, FASN, SCD1, ATGL, and CAT genes. In contrast, oxLDL showed a striking increase in lipid droplets enriched with CE hydroperoxides (CE-OOH) in association with the altered expression of SREBP1, FASN, and DGAT1. Phosphatidylcholine (PC)-OOH/PC was increased in oxLDL-supplemented cells as compared with other groups, suggesting that oxidative stress increased hepatocellular damage. Thus, intracellular lipid droplets enriched with CE-OOH appear to play a crucial role in NAFLD and NASH, triggered by oxLDL. We propose oxLDL as a novel therapeutic target and candidate biomarker for NAFLD and NASH.

  Foods (Basel, Switzerland) 12 2 2023年01月05日 

  Brown seaweeds are known as important marine food sources, from which phytosterols have been recognized as functional food components with multiple health-beneficial effects. However, studies on phytosterol extraction and quantitation from edible brown seaweeds are limited. In the present work, extraction methods for seaweed phytosterols were compared and optimized by one-factor-at-one-time method and response surface methodology. Moreover, the quantitation method of total sterols and major sterol components, including fucosterol, saringosterol, and ostreasterol, was established and validated using 1H NMR. Furthermore, the developed extraction and determination methods were applied to investigate three common edible seaweeds from Japan (Hijiki, Wakame, and Kombu). As a result, the finally optimized conditions were ultrasound-assisted extraction with CHCl3-MeOH 2:3 for 15 min followed by saponification with 1.65 mL of 1.85 M KOH for 14.5 h. Based on the developed methods, phytosterols in three seaweeds were compared, and Hijiki showed an abundant total sterol amount (2.601 ± 0.171 mg/g DW), significantly higher than Wakame (1.845 ± 0.137 mg/g DW) and Kombu (1.171 ± 0.243 mg/g DW). Notably, the composition of the sterol components varied in different seaweeds. These findings might help the nutritional investigation and functional food development concerning phytosterols from seaweeds.

  PloS one 18 3 e0283710  2023年 

  Kawasaki Disease (KD) is an acute inflammatory disorder associated with systemic vasculitis. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is an effective therapy for KD, yet, about 20% of cases show IVIG resistance with persistent inflammation. The lipid profile in IVIG-resistant KD patients and the relationship between lipid characteristics and IVIG resistance remain unknown. In this study, serum samples from twenty KD patients with different IVIG responses (sensitive, intermediate, or resistant) were collected both before and after treatment, and lipidomic analysis was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. As a result, before treatment, six lipid species were found as the most variant features, in which all the top decreased lipids in the IVIG-resistant group were lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), suggesting the potential to be IVIG-resistant markers in pretreatment diagnosis. During treatment, lipidomic changes showed a weaker response in the IVIG-resistant group. After treatment, LPC and LPE species exhibited lower in the IVIG-resistant group and negative correlation with the inflammatory markers, indicating that the unique metabolism may occur among IVIG-responsiveness. These results might contribute to diagnosing IVIG-resistant patients more accurately for alternative therapy and to a better understanding of how lipid metabolism is associated with IVIG sensitiveness/resistance in KD.

  Atherosclerosis 363 30 - 41 2022年12月 

  BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of heart failure (HF). After MI, lipids undergo several phasic changes implicated in cardiac repair if inflammation resolves on time. However, if inflammation continues, that leads to end stage HF progression and development. Numerous studies have analyzed the traditional risk factors; however, temporal lipidomics data for human and animal models are limited. Thus, we aimed to obtain sequential lipid profiling from acute to chronic HF. METHODS: Here, we report the comprehensive lipidome of the hearts from diseased and healthy subjects. To induce heart failure in mice, we used a non-reperfused model of coronary ligation, and MI was confirmed by echocardiography and histology, then temporal kinetics of lipids in different tissues (heart, spleen, kidney), and plasma was quantitated from heart failure mice and compared with naïve controls. For lipid analysis in mouse and human samples, untargeted liquid chromatography-linear trap quadrupole orbitrap mass spectrometry (LC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS) was performed. RESULTS: In humans, multivariate analysis revealed distinct cardiac lipid profiles between healthy and ischemic subjects, with 16 lipid species significantly downregulated by 5-fold, mainly phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), in the ischemic heart. In contrast, PE levels were markedly increased in mouse tissues and plasma in chronic MI, indicating possible cardiac remodeling. Further, fold change analysis revealed site-specific lipid biomarkers for acute and chronic HF. A significant decrease in sulfatides (SHexCer (34:1; 2O)) and sphingomyelins (SM (d18:1/16:0)) was observed in mouse tissues and plasma in chronic HF. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, a significant decreased lipidome in human ischemic LV and differential lipid metabolites in the transition of acute to chronic HF with inter-organ communication could provide novel insights into targeting integrative pathways for the early diagnosis or development of novel therapeutics to delay/prevent HF.

  Theriogenology 193 20 - 29 2022年11月 

  A severe negative energy balance and high circulating free fatty acids (FFA) in postpartum cows impair fertility. The lipotoxicity of FFA has been shown to decrease the quality of bovine oocytes in vitro. Therefore, excess FFA in cells is converted to triacylglycerol (TAG), a non-toxic form, to avoid lipotoxicity. We recently reported that the TAG content in oocytes was higher in postpartum lactating cows subjected to grazing management than in heifers (Theriogenology 176: 174-182, 2021). The present study investigated the compositions of the energy metabolism-related lipids, FFA and TAG, in the plasma and oocytes of cows at different lactation stages under indoor intensive feeding management in order to obtain insights into lipotoxicity in oocytes, particularly those in early postpartum cows. Blood and oocytes were collected from 20 lactating cows categorized into the following lactation groups: 20-30 days in milk (DIM) (n = 5), 40-50 DIM (n = 5), 60-80 DIM (n = 5), and 130-160 DIM (n = 5). Daily energy balance data were obtained for 3 weeks prior to oocyte collection using the ovum pick up (OPU) method. The contents and compositions of FFA and TAG in plasma and oocytes were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. As expected, plasma FFA was high at 20-30 DIM, decreased by 50 DIM, and was maintained at a low level for the remainder of the experimental period. Similar changes were observed in oocyte FFA and TAG with DIM as plasma FFA. Oocyte FFA positively correlated with plasma FFA (P < 0.05), but negatively correlated with the mean energy balance 1 and 21 days before OPU (P < 0.05). Relationships were noted between the composition and content of FFA in plasma and oocytes, with the FFA 16:1/16:0 and 18:1/18:0 ratios positively correlating with the total amount of FFA (P < 0.05). Elevated oocyte FFA in cows in the early postpartum period under intensive feeding management suggested that oocytes were at a high risk of FFA lipotoxicity. Furthermore, the present results implied that the severe negative energy balance in the previous few weeks was closely related to increases in oocyte FFA, which supports the importance of long-term cow feeding management for preserving the quality of oocytes in the early postpartum period. The present results provide insights into the effects of high circulating FFA on the fertility of postpartum cows.

  Seaweeds are a good source of bioactive lipids and are known for their nutritional benefits, making them a valuable food source. Despite their dietary significance and nutritional importance, there are limited reports on comprehensive lipidome analysis of lipids with antioxidant properties. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the lipid profiles of five commonly consumed Japanese dietary seaweeds using non-targeted liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). A total, of 304 molecular species from four major lipid classes were detected and characterized by MS/MS analysis. Multivariate statistical analysis revealed distinct lipid molecular compositions in kombu and sea mustard compared to hijiki, mozuku, and laver seaweeds. Kombu has been shown to contain large amounts of antioxidants, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and a high health promotion index compared to other seaweeds. Hierarchical cluster correlations indicated the predominance of glycerophospholipids (GPs) and glycerolipids (GLs) in sea mustard and kombu. As a result, dietary seaweeds have great potential as antioxidants and health-promoting foods for human consumption due to their high levels of PUFA-rich GPs and GLs. Unsaturated triacylglycerols are predominant in hijiki, whereas other health-beneficial lipids, such as monogalactosyldiacylglycerol and sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerols, are predominant in sea mustard. This study provides a detailed characterization of lipids and their comparative fingerprints in seaweeds, demonstrating the potential use of dietary seaweeds in biotechnological and industrial applications involving the development of functional food products.

  Chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is defined as a condition causing the gradual loss of kidney function, shows renal lipid droplet (LD) accumulation that is associated with oxidative damage. There is a possibility that an LD abnormality in quality plays a role in CKD development. This study aimed to explore the chemical composition of LDs that are induced in human kidney cells during exposure to free fatty acids as an LD source and oxidized lipoproteins as oxidative stress. The LDs were aspirated directly from cells using nanotips, followed by in-tip microextraction, and the LD lipidomic profiling was conducted using nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry. As a result, the free fatty acids increased the LD lipid content and, at the same time, changed their composition significantly. The oxidized lipoproteins caused distorted proportions of intact lipids, such as triacylglycerols (TG), phosphatidylcholines (PC), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), and cholesteryl esters (CE). Notably, the oxidized lipids, including the hydroperoxides of TG, PC, and PE, exhibited significant elevations in dose-dependent manners. Furthermore, the dysregulation of intact lipids was paralleled with the accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides. The present study has revealed that the oxidation of lipids and the dysregulation of the lipid metabolism coexisted in LDs in the kidney cells, which has provided a potential new target for diagnosis and new insights into CKD.

  Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are the end products of the fermentation of complex carbohydrates by the gut microbiota. Although SCFAs are recognized as important markers to elucidate the link between gut health and disease, it has been difficult to analyze SCFAs with mass spectrometry technologies due to their poor ionization efficiency and high volatility. Here, we present a novel and sensitive method for the quantification of SCFAs, including C2-C6 SCFAs and their hydroxy derivatives, by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) upon N,N-dimethylethylenediamine (DMED) derivatization with a run time of 10 min. Moreover, the quantification method of DMED-derivatized SCFAs in intestinal contents using isotope-labeled internal standards was also established. The method validation was performed by analyzing spiked intestinal samples; the limits of detection and quantification of SCFAs with this method were found to be 0.5 and 5 fmol, respectively; the recovery was greater than 80% and good linearity (0.9932 to 0.9979) of calibration curves was obtained over the range from 0.005 to 5000 pmol/μL; the intraday and interday precisions were achieved in the range of 1-5%. Furthermore, the validated method was applied to analyze SCFAs in the cecum and colon contents of mice infected with the influenza virus. The results showed that the concentration of most of the SCFAs tested here decreased significantly in a time-dependent manner after the infection, suggesting a possibility that SCFAs in intestinal samples could be used as severe disease markers. Overall, we here successfully developed a simple, fast, and sensitive method for SCFA analysis by LC-MS/MS combined with DMED derivatization. The method for the quantification of SCFAs will be a useful tool for both basic research and clinical studies.

  Lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) is a major lysophospholipid produced by phospholipids and binds to human serum albumin (HSA). LPEs may play various roles in vivo depending on the differences in their acyl chains. However, only few reports have been published on the biological functions of LPEs. Hence, we determined the exact relative abundance of the major LPEs in the serum of healthy participants (n = 8) using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Consequently, LPE 18:2 (24.1 ± 5.2%) was found to be the most abundant in serum. To understand the distribution of LPEs, the serum separated via gel-filtration high-performance liquid chromatography was subjected to quantitative measurement. LPEs were more observed in the albumin fraction than the lipoprotein fraction. We also performed a fluorescence displacement assay and an in silico molecular docking experiment using AutoDock to confirm the affinity and binding sites of the LPEs on HSA. The binding affinities of the LPEs for drug sites 1 and 2 on HSA were relatively low, with Ki values of approximately 11 and 3.8 μM, respectively. AutoDock analysis revealed the conformation of the LPEs bound to drug sites and the possibility of LPEs binding to other HSA sites. These findings could help to elucidate the biological and pathological functions of LPEs.

  Ozone is a potent environmental oxidant with high chemical reactivity and is present in the ambient environment at a low level of a few tens of ppb. However, only limited information is known about low-level ozone's influence on the respiratory system. In the present study, we systematically investigated the degradation of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), which is one of the major components of the pulmonary surfactant (PS), enabling breath function of the lung exposed to low ambient-level ozone (40 ± 10 ppb). Using the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry technique combined with the Langmuir-Blodgett approach, we first tracked the degradation process of POPC molecules by determining the degradation products during exposure to the ambient environment. As a result, we found that the POPC molecules can be readily degraded from the C═C moiety in 45 min, yielding an aldehyde-type product of 1-palmitoyl-2-(9'-oxo-nonanoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POnPC) and a trace amount of an acid-type one of 1-palmitoyl-2-azelaoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PAzPC), as well as a pair of secondary ozonide (SOZ) isomers. Furthermore, with prolonged exposure, the SOZ stayed constant but the yield of PAzPC significantly increased with the decrease in POnPC. The low-level ozone-induced oxidation mechanisms for unsaturated lipids are discussed based on the quantitative analyses of these experimental observations. The present results demonstrate that the ground-level ozone is strong enough to induce dramatic oxidation damage to the unsaturated lipids of the PS. These oxidized species may trigger the lung's inflammatory response and be used as biomarkers for oxidative stress and inflammation.

  Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland) 15 5 2022年05月05日 

  Lipid droplet accumulation (LDA) in hepatocytes is the initial stage of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In the search for natural compounds for the prevention of NAFLD, a series of β-carboline alkaloid derivatives, inspired by flazin and its derivative, newly identified in Crassostrea gigas Thunberg. extracts, were examined for LDA inhibition (LDAI) activity in oleic acid-loaded hepatocytes (HepG2). Eight compounds with a piperidine or pyridine C-ring were chemically synthesized (1-8). Among them, compounds 2 and 4 (flazin) with a carboxy group at C-3 and furfuryl alcohol moiety at C-1 showed low cytotoxicity and they exhibited significant LDAI activity. Compound 2 with piperidine C-ring was identified for the first time in C. gigas extract, and ameliorated the lipid accumulation with the LDAI value of 25.4%. Active compounds 2 and 4 significantly inhibited triacylglycerol species accumulation in cells. These compounds upregulated ATGL and downregulated SREBP1, FASN, and SCD1 genes, suggesting that they activated lipolysis and suppressed lipogenesis, respectively. These results suggest that β-carboline alkaloids, especially compounds 2 and 4, might be potentially useful for preventing NAFLD.

  Lipid disorders are closely related to numerous metabolic diseases, and lipid droplets (LDs) have been considered as a new target for regulating lipid metabolism. Dietary intervention and nutraceuticals provide safe and long-term beneficial effects for treating metabolic diseases. Flazin is a diet-derived bioactive constituent mainly existing in fermented foods, of which the lipid metabolism improvement function has not been studied. In this study, the effect of flazin on lipid regulation at both cell level and organelle level was investigated. Lipidomic profiling showed that flazin significantly decreased cellular triglyceride (TG) by 12.0-22.4% compared with modeling groups and improved the TG and free fatty acid profile. LD staining revealed that flazin efficiently reduced both cellular neutral lipid content by 17.4-53.9% and LD size by 10.0-35.3%. Furthermore, nanoelectrospray ionization mass spectrometry analysis proved that flazin exhibited a preferential suppression of LD TG and regulated LD morphology, including a size decrease and surface property improvement. An evaluation of related gene expression suggested the mechanism to be lipolysis promotion and lipogenesis inhibition. These findings indicated that flazin might be an LD regulator for reversing lipid metabolism disturbance. Moreover, the strategy proposed in this study may contribute to developing other nutraceuticals for treating lipid disorder-related metabolic diseases.

  Analytical sciences : the international journal of the Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry 38 3 515 - 523 2022年03月 

  The content and composition of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) induced by charcoal grilling of fish were determined in this study. Using HPLC-DAD, the simultaneously quantitative method for 16 priority PAHs was developed and applied to three common Japanese fish: mackerel, pacific saury, and sardine. Charcoal grilling largely increased the content of both total and representative PAHs. Moreover, all of the three fish showed a similar PAH composition under the effect of charcoal grilling: in raw samples, naphthalene was observed as the dominant PAH, while in charcoal-grilled samples, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, and pyrene served as the major PAHs. Furthermore, a health risk assessment showed that charcoal grilling resulted in high levels of the toxic equivalence quotients, the daily dietary intake exposure to PAHs, and the incremental lifetime cancer risk in three fish, which outclassed the raw samples and exceeded the recommended limitations. The results suggested that charcoal grilling-induced accumulation of PAHs and their potential health risk on human health should be of great concern, which might contribute to the dietary guidance and risk management of food-contained PAHs.

  Plasmalogens are functional and oxidation-sensitive phospholipids abundant in fish. Chilling and freezing are common storage methods for maintaining the quality of fish, but their effect on plasmalogen preservation has not been studied. Therefore, plasmalogen loss in ready-to-eat tuna meat during storage under different conditions was investigated. LC/MS was used to analyze the time- and temperature-dependent changes of plasmalogens, which was the most evident for the species with an ethanolamine headgroup and polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains. Moreover, a series of oxidized plasmalogen molecules were identified, and their storage-induced accumulation was observed. Plasmalogen loss was strongly correlated with total lipid oxidation and phospholipid degradation. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles were found to accelerate the loss of plasmalogens, whereas the different thawing methods did not. The present study provides a deeper understanding of changes in lipid nutrients from fish meat during storage and demonstrates the importance of using advanced strategies to maintain food quality.

  Nutrients 14 3 2022年01月28日 

  The physiological functions of lysophosphatidylethanolamine (lysoPE) have not been fully elucidated. In this study, the effects of lysoPE on lipogenesis and lipolysis were investigated in a cultured human liver-derived cell line. The intracellular lipid profile was investigated in detail using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to better understand the underlying mechanism. The expression of genes related to lipid metabolism and catabolism was analyzed using real-time PCR. LysoPE supplementation induced cellular lipid droplet formation and altered triacylglycerol (TAG) profiles. Furthermore, lysoPE downregulated expression of the TAG hydrolyzation regulation factor ATGL, and reduced the expression of fatty acid biosynthesis-related genes SREBP1 and SCD1. LC-MS/MS-based lipidomic profiling revealed that the addition of lysoPE 18:2 increased the PE species containing linoleic acyl, as well as the CE 18:2 species, likely due to the incorporation of linoleic acyl from lysoPE 18:2. Collectively, these findings suggest that lysoPE 18:2 is involved in lipid droplet formation by suppressing lipolysis and fatty acid biosynthesis. Thus, lysoPE might play a pathological role in the induction of fatty liver disease.

  Lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) are the initial products of the peroxidation of unsaturated lipids and play a crucial role in lipid oxidation due to their ability to decompose into free radicals and cause adverse effects on human health. Thus, LOOHs are commonly considered biomarkers of oxidative stress-associated pathological conditions. Despite their importance, the sensitive and selective analytical method for determination is limited, due to their low abundance, poor stability, and low ionizing efficiency. To overcome these limitations, in this study, we chemically synthesized eight fatty acid hydroperoxides (FAOOH), including FA 18:1-OOH, FA 18:2-OOH, FA 18:3-OOH, FA 20:4-OOH, FA 20:5-OOH, FA 22:1-OOH, FA 22:6-OOH as analytes, and FA 19:1-OOH as internal standard. Then, they were chemically labeled with 2-methoxypropene (2-MxP) to obtain FAOOMxP by one-step derivatization (for 10 min). A selected reaction monitoring assisted targeted analytical method was developed using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The MxP-labelling improved the stability and enhanced the ionization efficiency in positive mode. Application of reverse-phase chromatography allowed coelution of analytes and internal standards with a short analysis time of 6 min. The limit of detection and quantification for FAOOH ranged from 0.1-1 pmol/µL and 1-2.5 pmol/µL, respectively. The method was applied to profile total FAOOHs in chemically oxidized human serum samples (n = 5) and their fractions of low and high-density lipoproteins (n = 4). The linoleic acid hydroperoxide (FA 18:2-OOH) and oleic acid hydroperoxide (FA 18:1-OOH) were the most abundant FAOOHs in human serum and lipoproteins. Overall, our validated LC-MS/MS methodology features enhanced detection and rapid separation that enables facile quantitation of multiple FAOOHs, therefore providing a valuable tool for determining the level of lipid peroxidation with potential diagnostic applications.

  POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC COMPOUNDS 2021年12月 

  Chrysene is a four-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, which has been demonstrated to induce adverse effects through the inducement of oxidative stress. However, the possible mechanisms and potential pathways of chrysene-induced oxidative damages are scarcely investigated. In the present study, oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolism disorder were investigated in human hepatocytes. Chrysene could cause cell viability reduction and cellular reactive oxygen species accumulation in a dose-dependent manner from 10 to 400 ng/mL. Moreover, the mRNA expression detoxification phases, including phase I and phase II as xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes, along with phase III, were investigated by real-time PCR. The results showed that chrysene upregulated the phase I enzymes cytochrome P-450 1A1, 1A2, and epoxide hydrolase 1, while at the same time downregulated the phase II enzymes glutathione S-transferase alpha 1, NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1, and the phase III transporters multiple drug resistant 1 and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2. Furthermore, the inflammatory markers tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and cyclooxygenase-2 were increased, whereas the antioxidant transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and its regulated enzymes glutathione peroxidase1, heme oxygenase-1, and superoxide dismutase 2 were decreased. These data suggested that chrysene expressed oxidative stress to hepatocytes, resulting in cytotoxicity and inflammation, which might be due to the damage of the antioxidant system and xenobiotic metabolism.
• Oxidative Stress Linked Organ Lipid Hydroperoxidation and Dysregulation in Mouse Model of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis: Revealed by Lipidomic Profiling of Liver and Kidney.

  Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a prevalent disease related to lipid metabolism disorder and oxidative stress. Lipid hydroperoxidation is known to be a critical driving force of various disorders and diseases. However, the combination of both intact and hydroperoxidized lipids in NASH has not yet been studied. In this work, the liver and kidney samples from NASH-model mice were comprehensively investigated by using the LC/MS-based lipidomic analysis. As a result, triglycerides showed the amount accumulation and the profile alteration for the intact lipids in the NASH group, while phosphatidylethanolamines, lysophosphatidylethanolamines, plasmalogens, and cardiolipins largely depleted, suggesting biomembrane damage and mitochondria dysfunction. Notably, the lipid hydroperoxide species of triglyceride and phosphatidylcholine exhibited a significant elevation in both the liver and the kidney of the NASH group and showed considerable diagnostic ability. Furthermore, the relationship was revealed between the lipid metabolism disturbance and the lipid hydroperoxide accumulation, which played a key role in the vicious circle of NASH. The present study suggested that the omics approach to the lipid hydroperoxide profile might be the potential diagnostic marker of NASH and other oxidative stress-related diseases, as well as the evaluative treatment index of antioxidants.
• Defining the kinetic effects of infection with influenza virus A/PR8/34 (H1N1) on sphingosine-1-phosphate signaling in mice by targeted LC/MS.

  Scientific reports 11 1 20161 - 20161 2021年10月11日 

  Influenza remains a world-wide health concern, causing 290,000-600,000 deaths and up to 5 million cases of severe illnesses annually. Noticing the host factors that control biological responses, such as inflammatory cytokine secretion, to influenza virus infection is important for the development of novel drugs. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid metabolite and has essential biological functions in inflammation. However, the kinetic effects of influenza virus infection on physiological S1P levels and their signaling in multiple tissues remain unknown. In this study, we utilized a mouse model intranasally infected with 50 or 500 plaque forming units (PFU) of A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1; PR8) virus to investigate how S1P levels and expression of its regulating factors are affected by influenza virus infection by the liquid-chromatography/mass spectrometry and real-time PCR, respectively. The S1P level was significantly high in the plasma of mice infected with 500 PFU of the virus than that in control mice at 6 day-post-infection (dpi). Elevated gene expression of sphingosine kinase-1 (Sphk1), an S1P synthase, was observed in the liver, lung, white adipose tissue, heart, and aorta of infected mice. This could be responsible for the increased plasma S1P levels as well as the decrease in the hepatic S1P lyase (Sgpl1) gene in the infected mice. These results indicate modulation of S1P-signaling by influenza virus infection. Since S1P regulates inflammation and leukocyte migration, it must be worth trying to target this signaling to control influenza-associated symptoms.

  Impaired oocyte quality is one of the main causes of low fertility in modern high-yielding dairy cows. One of the potential factors of the impaired oocyte quality is the effects of free fatty acids (FFA). In fact, high FFA supplementation to culture media exacerbated oocyte developmental competence in vitro. Meanwhile, artificially induced high blood FFA levels in heifers did not affect the lipid composition of oocytes in vivo; however, the oocyte lipid profile of postpartum cows has not yet been investigated. Therefore, the profile of lipids involved in energy metabolism, including FFA and triacylglycerols (TAG), and their relationship between plasma and oocytes were compared among cows at different lactation stages. Heifers were used as a control group that was not affected by lactation. Plasma and oocytes were collected from heifers (n = 4) and 14 Holstein cows categorized to the early lactation stage: 25-47 days in milk (DIM) (n = 6), peak lactation stage: 61-65 DIM (n = 4), and middle lactation stage: 160-202 DIM (n = 4). The FFA and TAG profiles of plasma and oocytes were examined by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. Plasma FFA positively correlated with oocyte TAG (P < 0.05). Plasma FFA and oocyte TAG were significantly higher in cows in the early lactation stage than in heifers (P < 0.05), while the peak and middle lactation stage groups had intermediate levels. The proportion of oleic acid in plasma increased concurrently with elevations in total FFA, while the compositions of oocyte FFA and TAG fatty acyls were constant regardless of plasma FFA concentration or oocyte TAG content. The present results suggest that high postpartum plasma FFA concentrations affect the quantity of oocyte TAG. Taken together with the adverse effects of high FFA concentrations on oocyte developmental competence in vitro, oocyte quality in postpartum cows may be impaired due to high circulating FFA concentrations. These results provide a more detailed understanding of the effects of postpartum high circulating FFA concentrations on the low fertility of cows.

  Journal of epidemiology 33 1 31 - 37 2021年09月28日 

  BACKGROUND: Both decreased insulin sensitivity and impaired insulin secretion are common in Asian populations with diabetes, in contrast to Western populations. There is limited evidence regarding the association between insulin response in diabetes in Asian populations and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]D3) insufficiency. METHODS: The present cross-sectional study compared the prevalence of diabetes, defined as a fasting plasma glucose level ≥126 mg/dL and/or a HbA1c level ≥6.5%, among 480 participants aged 35-79 years not taking anti-diabetes medications, based on serum 25(OH)D3 levels. A logistic regression model was used to calculate the odds ratios for diabetes in each serum 25(OH)D3 group. Furthermore, this study examined the association between serum 25(OH)D3 levels and the index of homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) using a linear regression model. RESULTS: The prevalence of diabetes was 7.29% in the study population, and was higher in lower serum 25(OH)D3 quartile groups. The odds ratios for diabetes in the first, second, and third serum 25(OH)D3 quartile groups (25[OH]D3: ≤18.10, 18.11-22.90, and 22.91-28.17 ng/mL) were 4.02 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.25-12.92), 2.50 (95% CI, 0.77-8.10), and 1.91 (95% CI, 0.60-6.09), respectively, with the fourth quartile group (≽28.18 ng/mL) serving as the reference group, after adjusting for sociodemographic, lifestyle, physical and environmental factors. Serum 25(OH)D3 levels showed an inverse association with log-transformed HOMA-IR after adjusting for similar factors (standardized β = -0.08; 95% CI, -0.14 to -0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Serum 25(OH)D3 levels were inversely associated with diabetes prevalence in a general Japanese population, with a slight inverse association between serum 25(OH)D3 levels and HOMA-IR.

  Scientific reports 11 1 18748 - 18748 2021年09月21日 

  Serum fatty acids (FAs) exist in the four lipid fractions of triglycerides (TGs), phospholipids (PLs), cholesteryl esters (CEs) and free fatty acids (FFAs). Total fatty acids (TFAs) indicate the sum of FAs in them. In this study, four statistical analysis methods, which are independent component analysis (ICA), factor analysis, common principal component analysis (CPCA) and principal component analysis (PCA), were conducted to uncover food sources of FAs among the four lipid fractions (CE, FFA, and TG + PL). Among the methods, ICA provided the most suggestive results. To distinguish the animal fat intake from endogenous fatty acids, FFA variables in ICA and factor analysis were studied. ICA provided more distinct suggestions of FA food sources (endogenous, plant oil intake, animal fat intake, and fish oil intake) than factor analysis. Moreover, ICA was discovered as a new approach to distinguish animal FAs from endogenous FAs, which will have an impact on epidemiological studies. In addition, the correlation coefficients between a published dataset of food FA compositions and the loading values obtained in the present ICA study suggested specific foods as serum FA sources. In conclusion, we found that ICA is a useful tool to uncover food sources of serum FAs.

  BACKGROUND: We developed and compared two liquid chromatography methods, one with UV/Visible spectrophotometric detection (HPLC) and the other with mass spectrometric detection (LC-MS), for quantifying very-long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) in human plasma. Association of VLCFA with various cardiovascular risk factors were evaluated. METHOD: Fasting blood samples were collected from 541 human volunteers (242 men and 299 women; mean age ±SD, 58.9 ± 12.4 years), including 429 and 112 individuals with and without hypertriglyceridemia, respectively. Esterified VLCFA were saponified and derivatized with 2-nitrophenylhydrazine. Separation of VLCFA species was achieved with C4 Mightysil column (HPLC) and Ascentis Express Phenyl-Hexyl column (LC-MS) followed by spectrophotometric and selected-reaction monitoring mode of mass spectrometric detection, respectively. RESULTS: The HPLC assay of VLCFA was precise with intra-assay imprecision of 2.5% to 6.9% and inter-assay imprecision of 3.2% to 9.5%. Moreover, there was an excellent correlation (r > 0.96) between HPLC and LC-MS methods. The 95 percentile reference intervals (RI; upper limit) of VLCFA were determined to be 41.3 µmol/L in healthy volunteers. Plasma VLCFA were significantly correlated with triglycerides (Spearman's ρ = 0.306, P < 0.001) and total cholesterol (Spearman's ρ = 0.251, P < 0.001). All species of VLCFA were significantly elevated in hypertriglyceridaemic individuals compared with control. CONCLUSION: We established LC-based assays of VLCFA with either spectrophotometry or mass spectrometry as a detection system. Hypertriglyceridaemia is significantly associated with elevated concentration of each species of VLCFA.

  Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive mediator in inflammation. Dysregulated S1P is demonstrated as a cause of heart failure (HF). However, the time-dependent and integrative role of S1P interaction with receptors in HF is unclear after myocardial infarction (MI). In this study, the sphingolipid mediators were quantified in ischemic human hearts. We also measured the time kinetics of these mediators post-MI in murine spleen and heart as an integrative approach to understand the interaction of S1P and respective S1P receptors in the transition of acute (AHF) to chronic HF (CHF). Risk-free 8-12 wk male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to MI surgery, and MI was confirmed by echocardiography and histology. Mass spectrometry was used to quantify sphingolipids in plasma, infarcted heart, spleen of mice, and ischemic and healthy human heart. The physiological cardiac repair was observed in mice with a notable increase of S1P quantity (pmol/g) in the heart and spleen significantly reduced in patients with ischemic HF. The circulating murine S1P levels were increased during AHF and CHF despite lowered substrate in CHF. The S1PR1 receptor expression was observed to coincide with the respective S1P quantity in mice and human hearts. Furthermore, selective S1P1 agonist limited inflammatory markers CCL2 and TNF-α and accelerated reparative markers ARG-1 and YM-1 in macrophages in the presence of Kdo2-Lipid A (KLA; potent inflammatory stimulant). This report demonstrated the importance of S1P/S1PR1 signaling in physiological inflammation during cardiac repair in mice. Alteration in these axes may serve as the signs of pathological remodeling in patients with ischemia.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Previous studies indicate that sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) has some role in cardiovascular disease. This study adds quantitative and integrative systems-based approaches that are necessary for discovery and bedside translation. Here, we quantitated sphinganine, sphingosine, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in mice and human cardiac pathobiology. Interorgan S1P quantity and respective systems-based receptor activation suggest cardiac repair after myocardial infarction. Thus, S1P serves as a therapeutic target for cardiac protection in clinical translation.

  Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are a new class of endogenous lipids with promising physiological functions in mammals. We previously introduced a new type of lipids to this family called short-chain fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (SFAHFAs), branching specific to the C2 carbon of a long-chain fatty acid (≥C20). In this study, we discovered a homologous series of SFAHFAs comprising C16-C26 hydroxy fatty acids esterified with short-chain fatty acids (C2-C5) in mouse colon contents. The detected SFAHFAs were characterized by high-resolution mass spectrometry with MSn analysis. The double-bond position of monounsaturated SFAHFAs was determined by the epoxidation reaction of samples with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid and their MSn analysis. Further, the measurement of SFAHFA concentration in the colon contents of mice infected with influenza A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1; PR8) virus revealed a significant increase in their levels compared to native control. A strong correlation was observed between hydroxy fatty acid and SFAHFAs. Detection, characterization, and profiling of these new SFAHFA levels in relation with pandemic H1N1; PR8 influenza virus will contribute to the in-depth study of their function and metabolism.

  Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are a new class of endogenous lipids with interesting physiological functions in mammals. Despite their structural diversity and links with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) biosynthesis, FAHFAs are less explored as NRF2 activators. Herein, we examined for the first time the synthetic docosahexaenoic acid esters of 12-hydroxy stearic acid (12-DHAHSA) or oleic acid (12-DHAHOA) against NRF2 activation in cultured human hepatoma-derived cells (C3A). The effect of DHA-derived FAHFAs on lipid metabolism was explored by the nontargeted lipidomic analysis using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Furthermore, their action on lipid droplet (LD) oxidation was investigated by the fluorescence imaging technique. The DHA-derived FAHFAs showed less cytotoxicity compared to their native fatty acids and activated the NRF2 in a dose-dependent pattern. Treatment of 12-DHAHOA with C3A cells upregulated the cellular triacylglycerol levels by 17-fold compared to the untreated group. Fluorescence imaging analysis also revealed the suppression of the degree of LDs oxidation upon treatment with 12-DHAHSA. Overall, these results suggest that DHA-derived FAHFAs as novel and potent activators of NRF2 with plausible antioxidant function.

  Lipids such as furan fatty acids (F-acids) are the valuable minor bioactive components of food such as fatty fish and plants. They are reported to have positive health benefits, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Despite their importance, limited studies are focusing on F-acid determination in dietary seafood. This study aimed to identify and profile non-esterified F-acids and free fatty acids in total lipid extract of seafood such as shellfish and salmon. The lipidomic analysis using liquid chromatography-linear trap quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry led to identifying seven types of free F-acids in shellfish (n = 5) and salmon (n = 4). The identified F-acids were confirmed by their high-resolution masses and acquired mass spectra. The relative concentrations of F-acids in shellfish range from 0.01 to 10.93 mg/100 g of the fillet, and in salmon, 0.01 to 14.21 mg/100 g of the fillet. The results revealed the highest abundance of F-acids in Sakhalin surf clam, Japanese scallop, and a fatty salmon trout. Besides, relative levels of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in these seafoods were compared with each other, suggesting basket clams and salmon trout to have significantly higher levels of PUFAs. The dietary seafoods enriched with F-acids and PUFAs may have possible health benefits. Hence, the applied technique could be a promising tool for rapid detection and analysis of non-esterified fatty acids in food.

  Cold preservation in University of Wisconsin (UW) solution is not enough to maintain the viability of the small intestine, due to the oxidative stress. The novel phenolic antioxidant 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA) has dual properties to reduce oxidative stress, radical scavenging, and antioxidant protein induction, in other cells. This study was designed to determine whether DHMBA reduces cold preservation injury of enterocytes, and to identify the effector site. Enterocytes were subjected to 48-h cold preservation under atmosphere in UW solution (±DHMBA), and then returned to normal culture to replicate reperfusion of the small intestine after cold preservation. At the end of cold preservation (ECP) and at 1, 3, 6, and 72 h after rewarming (R1h, R3h, R6h, and R72h), we evaluated cell function and the injury mechanism. The results showed that DHMBA protected mitochondrial function mainly during cold preservation, and suppressed cell death after rewarming, as shown by the MTT, ATP, mitochondrial membrane potential, LDH, and lipid peroxidation assays, together with enhanced survival signals (PI3K, Akt, p70S6K) and induction of antioxidant proteins (HO-1, NQO-1, TRX-1). We found that DHMBA mitigates the cold-induced injury of enterocytes by protecting the mitochondria through direct and indirect antioxidative activities.

  Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) reverse malnutrition and l-carnitine leads to the reduction of hyperammonemia and muscle cramps in cirrhotic patients. BCAA and l-carnitine are involved in glucose and fatty acid metabolism, however their mechanistic activity in cirrhotic liver is not fully understood. We aim to define the molecular mechanism(s) and combined effects of BCAA and l-carnitine using a cirrhotic rat model. Rats were administered carbon tetrachloride for 10 weeks to induce cirrhosis. During the last 6 weeks of administration, cirrhotic rats received BCAA, l-carnitine or a combination of BCAA and l-carnitine daily via gavage. We found that BCAA and l-carnitine treatments significantly improved hepatocellular function associated with reduced triglyceride level, lipid deposition and adipophilin expression, in cirrhotic liver. Lipidomic analysis revealed dynamic changes in hepatic lipid composition by BCAA and l-carnitine administrations. BCAA and l-carnitine globally increased molecular species of phosphatidylcholine. Liver triacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides were significantly decreased by BCAA and l-carnitine. Furthermore, serum and liver ATP levels were significantly increased in all treatments, which were attributed to the elevation of mature cardiolipins and mitochondrial component gene expressions. Finally, BCAA and l-carnitine dramatically reduced hepatocellular death. In conclusion, BCAA and l-carnitine treatments attenuate hepatocellular damage through the reduction of lipid peroxides and the overall maintenance of mitochondrial integrity within the cirrhotic liver. These effectiveness of BCAA and l-carnitine support the therapeutic strategies in human chronic liver diseases.

  BACKGROUND: Cardiolipin (CL) helps maintain mitochondrial structure and function. Here we investigated whether a high carbohydrate diet (HCD) fed to mice for a short period (5 days) could modulate the CL level, including that of monolysoCL (MLCL) in the liver. RESULTS: Total CL in the HCD group was 22% lower than that in the normal chow diet (NCD) group (P < 0.05). The CL72:8 level strikingly decreased by 93% (P < 0.0001), whereas total nascent CLs (CLs other than CL72:8) increased (P < 0.01) in the HCD group. The total MLCL in the HCD group increased by 2.4-fold compared with that in the NCD group (P < 0.05). Tafazzin expression in the HCD group was significantly downregulated compared with that in the NCD group (P < 0.05). A strong positive correlation between nascent CL and total MLCL (r = 0.955, P < 0.0001), and a negative correlation between MLCL and Tafazzin expression (r = -0.593, P = 0.0883) were observed. CONCLUSION: A HCD modulated the fatty acid composition of CL and MLCL via Tafazzin in the liver, which could lead to mitochondrial dysfunction. This model may be useful for elucidating the relationship between fatty liver and mitochondrial dysfunction. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

  Plasmalogens are an animal-derived functional phospholipid increasingly known as a safe and effective nutritional ingredient, however, the quantitation and comparison of plasmalogen species in foods is limited. In the present work, determination methods for dietary plasmalogens using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy under positive and negative ionization modes were compared. The negative-mode method, which showed better selectivity, sensitivity, and accuracy, was then applied in 14 kinds of livestock, poultry, and seafood samples. Livestock and poultry showed abundant total plasmalogen (530.83-944.94 nmol/g), higher than fish (46.08-399.75 nmol/g) and mollusk (10.00-384.76 nmol/g). While fish and mollusk samples expressed healthier fatty acyl composition, with higher eicosapentaenoyl and more beneficial n-6/n-3 ratio than the land animal meats, especially for squid and octopus, with eicosapentaenoyl of 98.4% and 94.5%, respectively. The correlations among plasmalogen species varied in different foodstuffs with distinguishing patterns, suggesting the customizable strategies for achieving targeted plasmalogen species. These findings not only provided fundamental comparison of plasmalogen among daily foodstuffs, but also contributed to extend the dietary plasmalogen sources for health food development.

  Lysophosphatidylethanolamines (LysoPEs) are the partial hydrolysis products of phosphatidylethanolamine. Despite the unique in vitro bioactivities of LysoPEs, there are limited reports on the pathophysiological role of LysoPEs in the serum, due to the lack of sensitive analytical methods for determination of each molecular species in clinical samples. Herein, we developed a highly sensitive quantitative method to profile the serum LysoPE species by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with selected reaction monitoring (SRM). The internal standard (IS), chemically synthesized in-house, and the lineup of seven major LysoPE species were used in this study. The limits of detection and quantification for each LysoPE species ranged within 0.5-3.3 pmol/mL and 1.0-5.0 pmol/mL, respectively. The combined concentrations of LysoPEs in the serum from healthy subjects (n = 8) and the patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) including simple steatosis (SS, n = 9) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH, n = 27) were 18.030 ± 3.832, 4.867 ± 1.852, and 5.497 ± 2.495 nmol/mL, respectively. The combined and individual concentrations of LysoPEs, except for LysoPE 18:0, significantly decreased in the patients with NAFLD compared with those for the healthy subjects. However, no significant difference was observed between the SS and NASH groups. Our proposed LC-MS/MS method is valid and has advantages of small sample volume, high sensitivity, and simultaneous absolute quantitation for multiple molecular species. This method may enable diagnostic evaluation and elucidation of the as-yet uncovered pathophysiological role of LysoPEs.
• Comparison of anthocyanin distribution in berries of Haskap (Lonicera caerulea subsp. edulis (Turcz. ex. Herder) Hultén), Miyama-uguisukagura (Lonicera gracilipes Miq.), and their interspecific hybrid using imaging mass spectrometry.

  Haskap (Lonicera caerulea subsp. edulis), a shrub with violet-blue fruits, is distributed mainly in Hokkaido, Japan. Miyama-uguisukagura (Lonicera gracilipes), a species related to Haskap, produces red fruits. Interspecific hybridization of Miyama-uguisukagura and Haskap was performed to introduce novel characteristics in the resulting hybrids. The shape and color of the interspecific hybrid fruits differed from those of the parent fruits. A comparison of anthocyanin distribution among these three fruit types by imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) revealed the presence of five different anthocyanins. The average cyanidin 3,5-diglucoside and peonidin 3,5-diglucoside intensities in the interspecific hybrid fruit were higher than those of the parent fruits, whereas the average pelargonidin 3-glucoside, cyanidin 3-glucoside, and peonidin 3-glucoside intensities were the highest in Haskap. All anthocyanins were mainly accumulated in the inner and outer skins of Haskap and interspecific hybrid fruits, and in the skin of Miyama-uguisukagura fruits. The order of signal intensities of all anthocyanins among the three fruits was unchanged in different regions. Additionally, a comparison of IMS and LC/MS data from our previous study confirmed the possibility of comparing multiple fruits in the same plate by IMS. Thus, we elucidated anthocyanin distribution patterns of the interspecific hybrid and parent fruits by IMS.

  BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common type of liver disease, but it is difficult to distinguish its pathogenic phenotype, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), from nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) without a liver biopsy. We analyzed serum lipids, including low-density lipoprotein triglyceride (LDL-TG), to elucidate their usefulness for diagnosing NASH. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Serum samples obtained from 35 NASH and 9 NAFL biopsy-confirmed patients and 6 healthy volunteers (HLT) were studied for 13 lipid-related markers and compared between HLT, NAFL, and NASH groups. The relationship between histological findings and the lipid markers was also analyzed. RESULTS: There were significant differences in triglyceride, LDL-TG, the ratio of LDL-TG to the LDL-cholesterol (LDL-TG/LDL-C), small dense LDL-C, and apolipoprotein E between the three groups. Among the 5 lipid components, serum LDL-TG level and the ratio of LDL-TG to the LDL-cholesterol (LDL-TG/LDL-C) were significantly elevated in NASH. The median concentrations of LDL-TG in HLT, NAFL, and NASH were 9, 15, and 20 mg/dL (P < 0.001), and those of LDL-TG/LDL-C were 0.097, 0.102, and 0.173 (P < 0.001), respectively. Although the degree of steatosis was not correlated with the LDL-TG/LDL-C, the ratio was significantly higher in patients with lobular inflammation (P = 0.071), ballooning (P = 0.031), and fibrosis (P < 0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the ratio for distinguishing NASH from NAFL was 0.857. The rest of studied markers showed no significant utility. CONCLUSION: Serum LDL-TG levels and the LDL-TG/LDL-C ratio might serve as simple and noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers for NASH.

  INTRODUCTION: Diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disorder causing multiple organ damage in human. However, the lipidomic profiles in different organs and their associations are rarely studied in either diabetic patients or animals. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate and compare the characteristics of lipid species in serum and multiple tissues in a diabetic mouse model. METHODS: Semi-quantitative profiling analyses of intact and oxidized lipids were performed in serum and multiple tissues from a diabetic mouse model fed a high fat diet and treated with streptozotocin by using LC/HRMS and MS/MS. The total content of each lipid class, and the tissue-specific lipid species in all tissue samples were determined and compared by multivariate analyses. RESULTS: The diabetic mouse model displayed characteristic differences in serum and multiple organs: the brain and heart showed the largest reduction in cardiolipin, while the kidney had more alterations in triacylglycerol. Interestingly, the lipidomic differences also existed between different regions of the same organ: cardiolipin species with highly polyunsaturated fatty acyls decreased only in atrium but not in ventricle, while renal cortex showed longer fatty acyl chains for both increased and decreased triacylglycerol species than renal medulla. Importantly, diabetes caused an accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides, suggesting that oxidative stress was induced in all organs except for the brain during the development of diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: These findings provided novel insight into the organ-specific relationship between diabetes and lipid metabolism, which might be useful for evaluating not only diabetic tissue injury but also the effectiveness of diabetic treatments.

  Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are novel endogenous lipids with important physiological functions in mammals. We previously identified a new type of FAHFAs, named short-chain fatty acid esterified hydroxy fatty acids (SFAHFAs), with acetyl or propyl esters of hydroxy fatty acids of carbon chains, C ≥ 20. However, sensitive determination of SFAHFAs is still a challenge, due to their high structural similarity and low abundance in biological samples. This study employs one-step chemical derivatization following total lipid extraction using 2-dimethylaminoethylamine (DMED) for enhanced detection of SFAHFAs. The labeled extracts were subjected to ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled to linear ion trap quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC/LTQ-Orbitrap MS). Our results demonstrated that the detection sensitivities of SFAHFAs increased after DMED labeling, and is highly helpful in discovering six additional novel SFAHFAs in the cecum and colon contents of WKAH/HKmSlc rats fed with normal and high-fat diet (HFD). The identified DMED labeled SFAHFAs were characterized by their detailed MS/MS analysis, and their plausible fragmentation patterns were proposed. The concentrations of SFAHFAs were significantly reduced in the cecum of HFD group compared to the control. Hence, the proposed method could be a promising tool to apply for the enhanced detection of SFAHFAs in various biological matrices, which in turn facilitate the understanding of their sources, and physiological functions of these novel lipids.

  RATIONALE: Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are recently discovered endogenous lipids with outstanding health benefits. FAHFAs are known to exhibit antioxidant, antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory properties. The number of known long-chain FAHFAs in mammalian tissues and dietary resources increased recently because of the latest developments in high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry techniques. However, there are no reports on the identification of short-chain fatty acid esterified hydroxy fatty acids (SFAHFAs). METHODS: Intestinal contents, tissues, and plasma of rats fed with high-fat diet (HFD) and normal diet (ND) were analyzed for fatty acids, hydroxy fatty acids, and FAHFAs using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) and linear trap quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (LTQ Orbitrap MS) with negative heated electrospray ionization. RESULTS: Untargeted analysis of total lipid extracts from murine samples (male 13-week-old WKAH/HKmSlc rats) led to the identification of several new SFAHFAs of acetic acid or propanoic acid esterified long-chain (>C20)-hydroxy fatty acids. Furthermore, MS3 analysis revealed the position of the hydroxyl group in the long-chain fatty acid as C-2. The relative amounts of SFAHFAs were quantified in intestinal contents and their tissues (Cecum, small intestine, and large intestine), liver, and plasma of rats fed with HFD and ND. The large intestine showed the highest abundance of SFAHFAs with a concentration range from 0.84 to 57 pmol/mg followed by the cecum with a range of 0.66 to 28.6 pmol/mg. The SFAHFAs were significantly altered between the HFD and ND groups, with a strong decreasing tendency under HFD conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Identification of these novel SFAHFAs can contribute to a better understanding of the chemical and biological properties of individual SFAHFAs and their possible sources in the gut, which in turn helps us tackle the role of these lipids in various metabolic diseases.

  Plasmalogens are dietary phospholipids with beneficial health effects. In this work, plasmalogen characteristics and changes in beef during boiling, frying, and roasting were comprehensively investigated by liquid-chromatography-mass spectrometry. The alteration of plasmalogen fingerprint during cooking processes was found by untargeted omics approach, in which time of boiling, temperature of roasting, and meat core/surface of frying were responsible for the observed variations. Moreover, the targeted determination of representative plasmalogen species showed significant loss with a temperature- and time-dependent manner in roasting and frying. And frying even showed an extra loss in meat surface compared with core. Furthermore, an artificial neural network-based predictive model elucidated the dynamics of plasmalogen species during cooking. Finally, batter-coating pretreatment was performed to show its protection against plasmalogens loss during frying. These results might provide a potential strategy to better control and improve the quality of functional foodstuffs during cooking processes.

  High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity is a primary risk factor for serious health problems. Although much research has been performed at the genomic level, lipidomic studies were limited. In this study, we aim to obtain a comprehensive profile of circulating plasma lipids, which are altered in rodent rat obesity by untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Rats fed with HFD for 8 weeks had increased body weight, liver and adipose tissue weight. The analysis results revealed that polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and their corresponding phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylserine were significantly decreased in rats fed with HFD. In contrast, less unsaturated and ether type phosphatidylglycerols were increased. The triacylglycerides (TAGs) having saturated FA were increased in the HFD condition, whereas TAGs having PUFA were decreased. The levels of many plasma lipids were altered, and interestingly PUFA derived lipids were negatively associated with obesity. This signifies the importance of a PUFAs enriched diet to overwhelm obesity associated diseases.

  An efficient three-step strategy for the convenient synthesis of Sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (GroPEtn) from a commercially available 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE) is reported. Direct hydrolysis of DPPE produces a complex inseparable mixture, hence a protection and deprotection strategy is employed to prepare GroPEtn. The primary amine of DPPE is protected with a highly stable acid-labile trityl group, followed by strong base hydrolysis of N-trityl-DPPE gives N-trityl-GroPEtn. Further a mild, rapid, and efficient deprotection method is established using trifluoroacetic acid to remove N-trityl moiety, affords GroPEtn as a single product. This is the first semisynthetic approach and efficient method to produce GroPEtn with a total yield of 66% in three steps. GroPEtn did not show any cytotoxicity against human kidney (HK-2) cells and reporter gene assay for activation of Keap1-Nrf2-mediated antioxidant defense mechanism showed no significant effects.

  Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are a recently discovered class of biologically active lipids with anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic properties. Despite the possible link between endogenous FAHFA levels and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), their possible function as antioxidants and the mechanisms involved in this are unknown. Here, we investigate FAHFAs' plausible antioxidant potential with reference to their effect on the Nrf2 levels, oxidative stress, and lipid droplet oxidation in human hepatocytes (C3A). Six authentic FAHFAs were chemically synthesized and performed activity-based screening by reporter gene assay. Among them, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) esterified 12-hydroxy stearic acid (12-HSA) and 12-hydroxy oleic acid (12-HOA) FAHFAs showed less cytotoxicity compared to their free fatty acids and potent activators of Nrf2. To define their mode of action, relative levels of nuclear Nrf2 were determined, which found a higher amount of Nrf2 in nucleus of cells treated with 12-EPAHSA compared to the control. Furthermore, 12-EPAHSA increased the expression of Nrf2-dependent antioxidant enzyme genes (NQO1, GCLM, GCLC, SOD-1, and HO-1). Fluorescence imaging analysis of linoleic-acid-induced lipid droplets (LDs) in C3A cells treated with 12-EPAHSA revealed the strong inhibition of small-size LD oxidation. These results suggest that EPA-derived FAHFAs as a new class of lipids with less cytotoxicity, and strong Nrf2 activators with plausible antioxidant effects via the induction of cytoprotective proteins against oxidative stress, induced cellular damage.

  RATIONALE: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly malignant disease for which the development of prospective or prognostic biomarkers is urgently required. Although metabolomics is widely used for biomarker discovery, there are some bottlenecks regarding the comprehensiveness of detected features, reproducibility of methods, and identification of metabolites. In addition, information on localization of metabolites in tumor tissue is needed for functional analysis. Here, we developed a wide-polarity global metabolomics (G-Met) method, identified HCC biomarkers in human liver samples by high-definition mass spectrometry (HDMS), and demonstrated localization in cryosections using desorption electrospray ionization MS imaging (DESI-MSI) analysis. METHODS: Metabolic profiling of tumor (n = 38) and nontumor (n = 72) regions in human livers of HCC was performed by an ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight MS (UHPLC/QTOFMS) instrument equipped with a mixed-mode column. The HCC biomarker candidates were extracted by multivariate analyses and identified by matching values of the collision cross section and their fragment ions on the mass spectra obtained by HDMS. Cryosections of HCC livers, which included both tumor and nontumor regions, were analyzed by DESI-MSI. RESULTS: From the multivariate analysis, m/z 904.83 and m/z 874.79 were significantly high and low, respectively, in tumor samples and were identified as triglyceride (TG) 16:0/18:1(9Z)/20:1(11Z) and TG 16:0/18:1(9Z)/18:2(9Z,12Z) using the synthetic compounds. The TGs were clearly localized in the tumor or nontumor areas of the cryosection. CONCLUSIONS: Novel biomarkers for HCC were identified by a comprehensive and reproducible G-Met method with HDMS using a mixed-mode column. The combination analysis of UHPLC/QTOFMS and DESI-MSI revealed that the different molecular species of TGs were associated with tumor distribution and were useful for characterizing the progression of tumor cells and discovering prospective biomarkers.

  Cholesteryl ester (CE) is an ester of cholesterol and fatty acid (FA). Plasma CE reflects complicated metabolisms of cholesterol, phospholipids, lipoproteins, and dietary FAs. An informatics approach could be useful for analysis of the CE species. In this study, two basic dimension reduction methods, principal component analysis (PCA) and factor analysis, were applied to serum CE species determined by LC-MS/MS in a Japanese population (n = 545). PCA and factor analysis both reflected the size (concentration), food source, fat solubility, and biological aspect of the CE species. In a comparison between PCA (PC4) and factor analysis (factor 4), the latter was found to be more suggestive from a biological aspect of n-6 FAs. Cholesteryl docosahexaenoate (DHA) was found to be unique by a factor analysis, possibly relevant to the unique accumulation of DHA in the brain. An informatics approach, especially factor analysis, might be useful for the analysis of complicated metabolism of CE species in the serum.

  A comparative lipidomic profiling analysis of dairy cattle oocytes with different developmental competences was performed using a combination of high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution tandem mass spectrometry and multivariate statistical analysis. Significant lipidomic changes were identified in degenerating oocytes. Total triacylglycerol in the degenerating oocytes was 1.8-fold higher than that in the normal oocytes; however, total cardiolipin was 53.5% lesser than that in the normal oocytes, which indicated attenuation of energy metabolism. Compared to those in the normal oocytes, triacylglycerols in the degenerating oocytes were composed of longer and more unsaturated acyl chains. In contrast, the acyl chains in free fatty acids present in the degenerating oocytes were shorter and with lesser degree of unsaturation compared to those in the normal oocytes. Moreover, a significant decrease in degenerating oocytes were found in total phosphatidylinositol (14.8 ± 7.6 pmol vs. 24.8 ± 5.5 pmol), total phosphatidylcholine (20.8 ± 8.7 pmol vs. 33.5 ± 7.2 pmol), and total plasmalogen ethanolamine (9.0 ± 4.7 pmol vs. 16.8 ± 5.2 pmol), which indicated dysfunction of lipid-metabolizing enzymes in oocytes during degeneration. Thus, increase of triacylglycerols together with the decrease of certain phospholipid species could be potential markers of oocyte developmental competence. In addition to providing a new approach to investigate the lipidomic changes in oocyte development, the lipidomic profiling in the present study has revealed insights that hold potential to unravel the role of lipid metabolism in oocyte developmental competence in cattle.

  Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal that is regarded as a metallohormone with estrogen-like properties. The present study aimed at identification of lipid hydroperoxides produced in human breast cancer (MCF7) exposed to cadmium (Cd) at environmentally relevant levels. Cd induced cytotoxicity and oxidative stress and produced a series of 26 lipid hydroperoxide species including 14 phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides (PC-OOH), 9 triacylglycerol hydroperoxides (TG-OOH), and 3 cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides (CE-OOH). Among these hydroperoxides, PC34:2-OOH, PC34:3-OOH, TG60:14-OOH, TG48:5-OOH, TG60:15-OOH, and CE20:4-OOH were produced in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting these as possible biomarkers for Cd exposure in MCF7 cells. In addition, Cd led to significant decreases in the gene expressions of antioxidants, detoxification enzymes, and xenobiotic transporters. In a protection trial, co-exposure of MCF7 cells to fat-soluble vitamins including vitamin A, D, and E reduced Cd-induced cytotoxicity, lipid peroxidation, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses. Fat-soluble vitamins upregulated antioxidant and detoxification enzymes, and xenobiotic transporters. Therefore, dietary supplementation of such micronutrients is recommended for people at risk for exposure to Cd.

  Flazin is a β-carboline-derived alkaloid found in Japanese fermented foods. Here, the potential of flazin as an antioxidant food was studied with particular reference to its effect on the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) system in human hepatocytes (C3A). Flazin and flazin analogues including the decarboxylated derivative perlolyrine were chemically synthesized and compared with each other and with chlorogenic acid and curcumin. Among these compounds, flazin showed the lowest cytotoxicity (IC50 < 500 μM) and the highest capacity to activate the Keap1-Nrf2 system. It provided the largest (>3-fold of the control) cytoprotection ability against a pro-oxidant, although its radical absorbance capacity was relatively low. Flazin increased the expressions of Nrf2-dependent phase II enzyme genes and their products (NQO1, GSTP, and GSH proteins). The strong cytoprotection ability of flazin associated with low log P (0-3) is shared by sulforaphane and 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol, suggesting the potential value of flazin and flazin-rich foods for the prevention of oxidation-related health disorders.

  The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of activated ghrelin with dietary octanoic acids or medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) administration to underweight patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Eleven severe and very severe COPD patients received a 5-day treatment with edible MCT. Sequentially, 10 patients received a 3-week combination treatment with MCT and intravenous acyl ghrelin. Five-day MCT treatment increased endogenous acyl ghrelin (p = 0.0049), but the total ghrelin level was unchanged. MCT-ghrelin combination treatment improved the peak oxygen uptake (p = 0.0120) during whole treatment course. This effect was attributed to the resultant improvements in cardiac function by O2 pulse, and to the difference between inspired and expired oxygen concentration rather than minute ventilation. Addition of dietary MCT to ghrelin treatment improved the aerobic capacity of underweight COPD patients, likely by mechanisms of increased O2 delivery through improvements in primary cardiocirculatory and muscular crosstalk.

  Circulating ApolipoproteinL1 (ApoL1) is a component of pre-β-high-density lipoprotein (HDL), however little is known about the relationship of ApoL1 with cardiometabolic factors. Considering previous studies reporting the correlation of ApoL1 to triglyceride, we have hypothesized that ApoL1 associates with insulin-related metabolism. The current study examined their associations in 126 non-diabetic subjects and 36 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Non-diabetic subjects demonstrated triglyceride (standardized coefficients [s.c.] = 0.204, p < 0.05), body mass index (s.c. =0.232, p < 0.05) and HDL cholesterol (s.c. = -0.203, p < 0.05) as independent determinant of ApoL1 levels, and the significant elevation of ApoL1 in metabolic syndrome. Lipoprotein fractionation analysis revealed the predominant distribution of ApoL1 in large HDL fraction, and the significant increase of ApoL1 in large LDL fraction in high ApoL1 samples with insulin resistance. In T2DM, ApoL1 was higher in T2DM with metabolic syndrome, however ApoL1 was lower with β cell dysfunction. Insulin significantly promotes ApoL1 synthesis and secretion in HepG2 cells. In conclusion, circulating ApoL1 may be associated with abnormal HDL metabolism in insulin resistant status. This may suggest a regulation of insulin signal on the ApoL1 level, leading to offer a novel insight to the ApoL1 biology.

  Fatty acids (FA) have been important in clinical diagnosis for long, which makes the increasing need for a fast, reliable, and economic approach to determine FA of short-, medium-, long-, and very long-chain by widely available equipment and with high-throughput capacity. In the present work, 2‑nitrophenylhydrazine derivatization coupling with LC-MS/MS detection was utilized to simultaneously quantitate 18 FAs ranging from C4 to C26 in human plasma. The sample preparation protocol was optimized and extracting with diethyl ether‑potassium phosphate buffer twice was found as the highest efficiency along with economic feasibility. Under the optimized conditions, all the FA showed excellent linearity (R2 > 0.999 for each), sufficient sensitivity (LOD 0.2-330 fmol and LOQ 2.3-660 fmol for all), favorable accuracy (recovery ranged from 98.1 ± 3.6% to 104.9 ± 5.5% with coefficient of variation no >8.6% for all), and negligible matrix effect. In the clinical application on 30 healthy subjects, compared with the previous HPLC-UV method, the developed method showed high reliability, as well as reduced time and reagent costs. The established method showed the potential to apply to not only diagnostic practice, but also nutritional and epidemiological studies.

  A fluorescence microscopic method for characterizing size, quantity, and oxidation of lipid droplets (LDs) in HepG2 cells was developed. LDs were induced by palmitic (PA), oleic (OA), or linoleic acids (LA) and stained with two fluorescent probes for neutral lipids and lipid peroxides. Each fatty acid increased the number of LDs and oxidized LDs (oxLDs) and the degree of LD oxidation time dependently, as well as increased intracellular triglyceride hydroperoxides. LDs induced by LA without 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AAPH) showed the most significant oxidation degree over PA and OA, especially in large LDs (area ≥ 3 μm2, oxLD/LD = 52.3 ± 21.7%). Under this condition, two food-derived antioxidants were evaluated, and both of them significantly improved the LD characteristics. Moreover, chlorogenic acid reduced the quantity of large LDs by 74.0-87.6% in a dose-dependent manner. The proposed method provides a new approach to evaluate the effect of dietary antioxidants on LD characteristics.

  This study was undertaken to estimate the concentrations of the formed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in heat-treated (boiled, pan-fried and grilled) meats collected from Egypt. Dietary intakes and cancer risks of PAHs among Egyptian adults were calculated. Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P)-induced mutagenicity and oxidative stress in human colon (CaCo-2) cell line and mechanisms behind such effects were also investigated. Finally, protection trials using rosmarinic (RMA) and ascorbic acids (ASA) were carried out. The results indicated formation of PAHs at high levels in the heat-treated meats. Calculated incremental life time cancer risk among Egyptian adults were 7.05179E-07, 7.00604 E-06 and 1.86069 E-05 due to ingestion of boiled, pan-fried and grilled meats, respectively. B[a]P-exposed CaCo-2 cells had high abilities for mutagenicity (490.05 ± 21.37 His + revertants) and production of reactive oxygen species. RMA and ASA protected CaCo-2 cells via reduction of B[a]P-induced mutagenicity and oxidative stress and upregulation of phase II detoxification enzymes and xenobiotic transporters.

  Triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV) is a phenotype primarily reported in patients carrying genetic mutations in PNPLA2 encoding adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) which releases long chain fatty acid (LCFA) as a major energy source by the intracellular TG hydrolysis. These patients suffered from intractable heart failure requiring cardiac transplantation. Moreover, we identified TGCV patients without PNPLA2 mutations based on pathological and clinical studies. We provided the diagnostic criteria, in which TGCV with and without PNPLA2 mutations were designated as primary TGCV (P-TGCV) and idiopathic TGCV (I-TGCV), respectively. We hereby report clinical profiles of TGCV patients. Between 2014 and 2018, 7 P-TGCV and 18 I-TGCV Japanese patients have been registered in the International Registry. Patients with I-TGCV, of which etiologies and causes are not known yet, suffered from adult-onset severe heart disease, including heart failure and coronary artery disease, associated with a marked reduction in ATGL activity and myocardial washout rate of LCFA tracer, as similar to those with P-TGCV. The present first registry-based study showed that TGCV is an intractable, at least at the moment, and heterogeneous cardiovascular disorder.

  OBJECTIVE: The present cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]D3) levels and the presence of poor sleep quality in a community-based Japanese adult population. METHODS: Poor sleep quality, defined as poor subjective sleep quality and/or use of sleep medications, was assessed using a self-administered questionnaire. The prevalence of poor sleep quality was compared among 512 Japanese participants aged 35-79 years, based on serum 25(OH)D3 levels, which were determined using tandem mass spectrometry. A logistic regression model was used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) for the presence of poor sleep quality in each group with the highest quartile of 25(OH)D3 serving as the reference group. RESULTS: Poor sleep quality was reported by 33.2% of the total study population. The prevalence of poor sleep quality was higher in the first quartile group (25[OH]D3: 2.08-18.13 ng/mL) than in the second, third and fourth quartile groups (18.14-23.07 ng/mL, 23.08-28.32 ng/mL, and 28.33-78.83 ng/mL, respectively). The ORs for poor sleep quality were 1.86 (95% confidence interval, 1.08-3.20) for the first quartile group, 0.73 (0.41-1.29) for the second quartile group, and 0.73 (0.42-1.27) for the third quartile group after adjusting for age, sex, and sociodemographic, lifestyle, physical and environmental factors, while the ORs were 1.68 (0.96-2.95), 0.69 (0.39-1.24), and 0.65 (0.37-1.15) after further adjustment for overall health status and depression status. CONCLUSIONS: The first quartile group of serum 25(OH)D3 was associated with the presence of poor sleep quality.

  Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental pollutant that can get entry into human body via ingestion of contaminated foods causing multiple organ damage. This study aimed at monitoring Cd residues in 20 foodstuffs of animal origin that are commonly consumed in Egypt. Health risk assessment was conducted via calculation of Cd dietary intakes and non-carcinogenic target hazard quotient. An in vitro approach was performed to investigate the constitutive effects of Cd on human hepatoma (HepG2) cells under food-relevant concentrations. Trials to reduce Cd-induced adverse effects on HepG2 cells were done using rosmarinic (RMA) and ascorbic acids (ASA). The achieved results indicated contamination of the tested foodstuffs with Cd at high levels with potential human health hazards. Cd at food-relevant concentrations caused significant cytotoxicity to HepG2 cells. This may be attributed to induction of oxidative stress and inflammation, as indicated by the overexpression of stress and inflammatory markers. At the same time, Cd downregulated xenobiotic transporters and upregulated the proliferation factors. Co-exposure of HepG2 cells to Cd and micronutrients such as RMA and ASA led to recovery of cells from the oxidative damage, and subsequently cell viability was strongly improved. RMA and ASA ameliorated the biological responses of HepG2 cells to Cd exposure.

  BACKGROUND: Short-chain fatty acids are primarily absorbed through the portal vein during lipid digestion, which is utilized as the energy source, as well as prevent type 2 diabetes and some cancers. However, reports on the determination of these short-chain fatty acids in human serum are limited. METHODS: Blood samples from human subjects ( n = 547, male/female = 246/301, age 58.85 ± 12.57) were collected. Saponification was applied to obtain total fatty acid. After derivatization by 2-nitrophenylhydrazine, fatty acid 4:0 and fatty acid 6:0 were measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS: The developed method exhibited good linearity (R2 = 0.9996 for both). All the coefficients of variation of reproducibility and accuracy for fatty acid 4:0 and fatty acid 6:0 ranged 3.0%-6.1%, with the average recoveries of 87.8%-102.4% and 92.2%-98.2%, respectively. In all the samples, the concentration of fatty acid 4:0 (162.4 ± 76.4 μmol/L) was significantly higher than fatty acid 6:0 (2.0 ± 2.5 μmol/L, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the esterified form was predominant in both fatty acid 4:0 and fatty acid 6:0 (98.2% and 82.4% of total fatty acids, respectively). Besides, short-chain fatty acids showed no significant differences with regard to sex or age differences. CONCLUSION: This developed liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method is convenient and reliable, which might be useful for monitoring the variations of short-chain fatty acids in blood.

  Understanding the gut microbiota in metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), is now gaining importance due to its potential role in disease risk and progression. We previously established a zebrafish model of T2DM, which shows glucose intolerance with insulin resistance and responds to anti-diabetic drugs. In this study, we analysed the gut microbiota of T2DM zebrafish by deep sequencing the 16S rRNA V3-V4 hypervariable regions, and imputed a functional profile using predictive metagenomic tools. While control and T2DM zebrafish were fed with the same kind of feed, the gut microbiota in T2DM group was less diverse than that of the control. Predictive metagenomics profiling using PICRUSt revealed functional alternation of the KEGG pathways in T2DM zebrafish. Several amino acid metabolism pathways (arginine, proline, and phenylalanine) were downregulated in the T2DM group, similar to what has been previously reported in humans. In summary, we profiled the gut microbiome in T2DM zebrafish, which revealed functional similarities in gut bacterial environments between these zebrafish and T2DM affected humans. T2DM zebrafish can become an alternative model organism to study host-bacterial interactions in human obesity and related diseases.

  Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disorder in the world. Oxidative stress, as a key role on the pathogenesis of diabetes, also results in the oxidation of phospholipids. However, studies on phospholipid oxidation in diabetes, especially directly focusing on oxidized and degraded phospholipid species, are quite limited. In this study, phospholipid profiles of diabetic zebrafish plasma were characterized by LC-HRMS and MS/MS, and the total amounts of each lipid class were compared. Furthermore, the key molecular species as biomarkers in distinguishing control and diabetic samples were investigated by orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis. Among the identified 114 phospholipid species in total, there were 11 hydroperoxides, 7 aldehydes, and 19 lysophospholipids found significantly elevated along with the increasing blood glucose, which were known as oxidation or degradation products. Furthermore, lysophosphatidylcholine 20:5 and lysophosphatidylcholine 22:6 were assessed as potential biomarkers in diabetic zebrafish. The current work would not only help to gain further insights into diabetes, but also contribute to find new clinical parameters for the screening of the promising antioxidant agents for its therapies.

  25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) as the metabolite of vitamin D, is connected with various of diseases, and important to people with limited sunshine. Thus, the investigation of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and its variation in these people is necessary. In this study, a simple, precise, and accurate method for serum 25(OH)D3 determination by LC/MS/MS was developed. Serum samples were obtained monthly for one year from 11 male and 11 female indoor workers in Sapporo, Japan, and the overall 25(OH)D3 concentration was 12.9 ± 4.7 ng/mL. The 25(OH)D3 in females was significantly lower than that in males (14.0 ± 5.0 vs. 11.9 ± 4.3 ng/mL). The serum 25(OH)D3 concentration in males and females were both strongly correlated to UV-B radiation (r2 = 0.8477 and 0.7384, respectively), with a two-month's lag. Also the monthly change in 25(OH)D3 in males was more significant than that in females.

  Oxidation of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) induces development of cardiovascular disease. Recently, reports of studies using atomic force microscopy (AFM) have described that the elastic modulus of metal-induced oxidized LDLs is lower than the modulus before oxidation. However, the mechanisms of change of the elastic modulus have not been well investigated. We postulated that disorder of the LDL structure might decrease the elastic modulus. This study measured the elastic modulus of LDLs before and after enzyme treatment with V8 protease, α-chymotrypsin, and phospholipase A2. After LDLs were obtained from serum by ultracentrifugation, LDLs or enzyme-treated LDLs were physically absorbed. They were crowded on a mica surface. Although V8 protease and α-chymotrypsin did not induce the elastic modulus change, treatment with PLA2 decreased the elastic modulus. The LDL particle size did not change during the enzyme treatment. Results suggest that disordering of the lipid structure of the LDL might contribute to the elastic modulus change. Results show that AFM might be a useful tool to evaluate disorders of complex nanoscale particle structures from lipids and proteins such as lipoproteins.

  Fatty acid (FA) profiling of milk has important applications in human health and nutrition. Conventional methods for the saponification and derivatization of FA are time-consuming and laborious. We aimed to develop a simple, rapid, and economical method for the determination of FA in milk. We applied a beneficial approach of microwave-assisted saponification (MAS) of milk fats and microwave-assisted derivatization (MAD) of FA to its hydrazides, integrated with HPLC-based analysis. The optimal conditions for MAS and MAD were determined. Microwave irradiation significantly reduced the sample preparation time from 80 min in the conventional method to less than 3 min. We used three internal standards for the measurement of short-, medium- and long-chain FA. The proposed method showed satisfactory analytical sensitivity, recovery and reproducibility. There was a significant correlation in the milk FA concentrations between the proposed and conventional methods. Being quick, economic, and convenient, the proposed method for the milk FA measurement can be substitute for the convention method.

  Unsaturated fatty acids (FAs) serve as nutrients, energy sources, and signaling molecules for organisms, which are the major components for a large variety of lipids. However, structural characterization and quantitation of unsaturated FAs by mass spectrometry remain an analytical challenge. Here, we report the coupling of epoxidation reaction of the C-C in unsaturated FAs and tandem mass spectrometry (MS) for rapid and accurate identification and quantitation of C-C isomers of FAs in a shotgun lipidomics approach. Epoxidation of the C-C leads to the production of an epoxide which, upon collision induced dissociation (CID), produces abundant diagnostic ions indicative of the C-C location. The total intensity of the same set of diagnostic ions for one specific FA C-C isomer was also used for its relative and absolute quantitation. The simple experimental setup, rapid reaction kinetics (<2 min), high reaction yield (>90% for monounsaturated FAs), and easy-to-interpret tandem MS spectra enable a promising methodology particularly for the analysis of unsaturated FAs in complex biological samples such as human plasma and animal tissues.

  Although widely occurring lipid oxidation, which is triggered by reactive oxygen species (ROS), produces a variety of oxidized lipids, practical methods to efficiently analyze oxidized lipids remain elusive. Herein, it is shown that the glycoblotting platform can be used to analyze oxidized lipids. Analysis is based on the principle that lipid aldehydes, one of the oxidized lipid species, can be captured selectively, enriched, and detected. Moreover, 3-methyl-1-p-tolyltriazene (MTT) methylates phosphoric and carboxylic acids, and this MTT-mediated methylation is, in combination with conventional tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analysis, an effective method for the structural analysis of oxidized lipids. By using three classes of standards, liposomes, and a lipoprotein, it is demonstrated that glycoblotting represents a powerful approach for focused lipidomics, even in complex macromolecules.

  Cardiolipin (CL) exists as crucial functional phospholipid in mitochondria. The oxidation of CL is concerned with mitochondrial dysfunction and various diseases. As main oxidation products, CL hydroperoxide (CL-OOH) plays a key role in intermediating oxidative reaction. Thus, direct analysis of CL-OOH is of great interest. In the present study, CL and CL-OOH profiles were analyzed in oxidized HepG2 cell lipid via HPLC-Orbitrap MS/MS. Furthermore, the contents of individual molecular species were compared between intact and AAPH-oxidized HepG2 cells. In total, 46 CL and 18 CL-OOH were identified from oxidized cell lipids, while 21 CL and 9 CL-OOH were detected in AAPH-treated cells. Most CL depleted significantly after AAPH inducement, with percentages varying from 8.3% (CL70:7) to 73.7% (CL72:4), depending on fatty acyl composition. While almost all the CL-OOH remarkably increased, among them 68:6-, 72:6-, and 72:7-OOHs were only detected in AAPH-treated cells. CL68:5- and CL68:4-OOH were the most abundant species, while CL70:5-OOH among all the species expressed the highest oxidation percentage of the corresponding CL. Our results showed practical separation, identification, and semi-quantitation of CL-OOH species, which could contribute to approaches to lipidomic analysis of CL and CL-OOH, as well as tracing biomarkers in mitochondrial oxidative stress diagnosis.

  To study structural and biological relationships in antioxidants, the cytoprotection, cytotoxicity, and Keap1-Nrf2 pathway activation potentials of nine natural antioxidants were compared. Sulforaphane, quercetin, isoliquiritigenin, curcumin, lycopene, and 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA) activated the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway, whereas chlorogenic acid, gallic acid, rosmarinic acid, and cyanidin-3-O-glucoside did not. Hence, the former group was considered indirect antioxidants, and the latter direct antioxidants. Except for DHMBA and sulforaphane, the indirect antioxidants exhibited higher logP values and cytoprotectiveness, albeit with higher cytotoxicities, compared to the direct antioxidants. Exceptionally, DHMBA and sulforaphane showed lower logP values and higher cytoprotectiveness without cytotoxicity, indicating that indirect antioxidants might be more beneficial than direct antioxidants for cytoprotection, although caution towards cytotoxicity should be exercised regarding those with high logP values. In this regard, indirect antioxidants with low logP values like DHMBA and sulforaphane might serve as promising ingredients in functional foods. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  Background: Urine has been utilized as a source of biomarkers in renal disease. However, urinary lipids have not attracted much attention so far. Here we studied urinary cholesteryl ester (CE) and its relevance in renal disease. Methods: Quantitative analysis of CE molecular species in serum, urinary supernatant, and urinary sediment from patients with renal disease (N = 64) and non-renal disease (N = 23) was carried out using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and deuterated CEs as internal standards. Results: Validation study showed good precision and accuracy of LC MS/MS. Many CE species were detected in the urinary sediment and supernatant in the renal disease group, whereas only a few CE species were detected in the other group. In the renal disease group, the sum of the concentrations of all CE species showed a significant correlation between the sediment and the supernatant from urinary samples (r = 0.876, p < 0.001); however, the composition of CEs was significantly different between them. Further, the composition of CEs of the supernatant was similar to that of the serum. Conclusions: Our LC-MS/MS analysis uncovered a distinct CE profile in urinary sediment from patients with renal disease, suggesting a possible contribution of CEs in urothelial cells to the development of renal disease.

  There is a high analytical demand for improving the detection sensitivity for various peptides in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI-IMS) because exhaustive distribution analyses of various peptides could help to reveal the function of peptides in vivo. To improve the sensitivity of peptide detection, we used supercritical fluid of CO2 (scCO(2)) as washing solvent for a pretreatment to remove lipids. We evaluated whether our wash method using scCO(2) with an entrainer improved the detection of peptides and suppressed lipid detection in MALDI-IMS. Our analysis revealed that the signal intensities of peptides such as m/z 3339.8, 3530.9, 4233.3, 4936.7, and 4963.7 were increased in scCO(2)-washed samples. The greatest improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) was found at m/z 4963.7, which was identified as thymosin beta 4, with the S/N reaching almost 190-fold higher than the control. Additionally, all of the improved signals were associated with the morphologic structure. Our method allows us to analyze the distribution of molecules, especially in the region of m/z 3000-5200. For these improvements, the polarity difference between scCO(2) and the matrix solution used was considered as a key. A wider variety of molecules can be analyzed in the future due to this improvement of the detection sensitivity by optimizing the polarity of scCO(2) with various entrainers.

  We studied change in the plasma total, esterified and non-esterified capric acid (FA10:0) and its effect on longer fatty acid concentrations during the short-term oral administration of synthetic tricaprin in dogs. We administered 150 and 1500 mg tricaprin/kg body weight per day orally to dogs for 7 consecutive days. Blood samples were collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 h on the 1st and 7th days for measuring the total-, esterified- and non-esterified-FA10:0. The total-FA10:0 concentration increased in a dose-dependent manner, reaching a peak at 1 h on the 1st day and at 2 to 4 h on the 7th day; it then mostly disappeared within 24 h. The mean esterified FA10:0 concentration was found be 75.5 and 60.3% of total-FA10:0 in dogs fed 150 and 1500 mg of tricaprin/kg body weight, respectively. The plasma level of FA10:0 depends on the duration and dose of tricaprin administration, but are rapidly cleared from circulation within several hours.

  Even though lysophospholipids have attracted much interest in recent years on account of their unique bioactivity, research related to lysophospholipids is usually hampered by problems associated with standard sample preparation and discrimination of regioisomers. Herein, we demonstrate a quick tin chemistry-based synthetic route to lysophosphatidylethanolamines (LPEs) and its application in the positional analysis of hepatic LPEs in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model mice. We found that the preference of hepatic LPE regioisomer largely depends on the unsaturation of acyl chain in both control and NASH model mice. In addition, hepatic C18:2-LPE and C20:5-LPE levels were significantly lower in the NASH model mice than those in the control. The LC/MS technique based on the library of LPE regioisomers allows an accurate observation of hepatic LPE metabolism and might provide useful information to elucidate yet ambiguous pathogenesis of NASH.

  Background: Liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) can be useful to improve in vitro fertilization (IVF). This study aims to find out an association between embryonic growth and embryonic uptake of free fatty acid (FFA) from culture media by using LC-HRMS. Methods: Embryos (n = 55) from 15 couples undergoing IVF were studied. An embryo was cultivated for up to 6 days in a 20 mu l-medium drop under mineral oil, and classified by a morphological grading system into the good-growth group (n = 32; good quality blastocysts) and the poor-growth group (n = 23; non-blastocysts). The control study was set up without embryo. Extracted ion chromatogram of FFAs was collected in negative ion mode for each medium sample obtained after use. Results: The percent change from control to sample in mass area for docosahexaenoic acid showed a decrease in the good-growth group than that in the poor-growth group (p < 0.05). Decrease in %change of docosahexaenoic acid might indicate proper embryonic growth. Similar but insignificant change was observed for other essential FFA5, but not for non-essential FFA5. Conclusion: The proposed metabolomic approach using LC-HRMS might be a powerful tool for non-invasive evaluation of embryonic growth. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  ANALYTICAL SCIENCES 32 4 473 - 476 2016年04月 [査読有り][通常論文]
   

  Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) can be complicated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study, changes in the distribution of biomolecules in the kidney were studied in NASH model mice with the use of imaging mass spectrometry (IMS). The mass spectra and ion images of IMS showed that the signals of cardiolipin (CL) species were decreased in the kidney cortex of the NASH mice. The decrease of CL might therefore suggest the kidney involvement of NASH.

  The accurate analysis of trace component in complex biological matrices requires the use of reliable standards. For liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis, the stable isotope-labeled derivatives of the analyte molecules are the most appropriate internal standards. We report here the synthesis of (2 beta,3 alpha,6-H-2(3))cholesteryl linoleate and oleate containing three non-exchangeable deuterium in the steroid ring. The principal reactions used were: (1) trans diaxial opening of 2 alpha,3 alpha-epoxy-6-oxo-5 alpha-cholestane with LiAlD4 and subsequent oxidation of the resulting (2 beta,6 alpha-H-2(2))-3 alpha,6 beta-diol with Jones' reagent, followed by reduction of the resulting (2 beta-H-2)-3,6-dione with NaBD4 leading to the (2 beta,3 alpha,6 alpha-H-2(3))-3 beta,6 beta-dihydroxy-5 alpha-cholestane, (2) selective protection of the 3 beta-hydroxy group as the tert-butyldimethylsilyl ether, (3) dehydration of the 6 beta-hydroxy group with POCI3 and removal of tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy groups with 5 M HCl in acetone, and (4) esterification of the resultant (2 beta,3 alpha,6-H-2(3))cholesterol with linoleic and oleic acids using 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyI)-3-ethylcarbodiim ide. The isotopic purity was found to be satisfactory by mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance properties of the new compounds were tabulated. The labeled compounds can be used as internal standards in liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry assays for clinical and biochemical studies. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

  Background: Pathophysiological role for high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses remains to be elucidated. Homogeneous assay for simultaneous measurements of apoE-deficient HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), apoE-containing HDL-.C, and total HDL-C is desired, because apoE plays important roles in lipid metabolism. Methods: The proposed assay consists of a primary reaction to remove non-HDL-C, a secondary reaction to measure apoE-deficient HDL-C, and a tertiary reaction to measure apoE-containing HDL-C. The assay is completed within 10 min. For control study, 13% polyethylene glycol precipitation assay and phosphotungstate-dextran sulfate -magnesium precipitation assay were carried out. Results: Good correlations between the control assays and the proposed assay was obtained in serum samples from patients without liver disease (n = 33): r = 0.987, 0.957, and 0.991 for apoE-deficient, apoE-containing, and total HDL-C, respectively. ApoE-containing HDL-C by the proposed method in healthy individuals (n = 12) and patients with hyper-HDL-cholesterolemia (n = 5) were 0.11 +/- 0.03 and 0.26 +/- 0.05 mmol/l (4.1 +/- 1.3 and 10.1 +/- 2.0 mg/dl), respectively. ApoE-containing HDL-C increased rapidly at >2.59 mmol/l (100 mg/dl) of total HDL-C, suggesting a unique regulating mechanism of apoE-containing HDL-C. Conclusions: The established homogeneous assay might be useful for clinical and epidemiological studies on apoE-deficient and apoE-containing HDL subclasses. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

  Anti-oxidative effects of the Pacific oyster-derived phenolic antioxidant, 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA), has been documented in hepatocytes. Additionally, DHMBA-rich oyster extracts significantly attenuated obesity in a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis mouse model. Whether the administration of DHMBA might improve muscular mitochondrial function was investigated. The mouse C2C12-derived myotubes were loaded with oleic acid (400μM) and cultured for 24 hours in the presence of DHMBA (500μM) with or without electrical stimulation (ES), where ES was given as exercise mimic. The fatty acid uptake, lipid accumulation, and mitochondrial function were subsequently accessed. DHMBA and ES increased fatty acid uptake, TG contents, mitochondrial membrane potential, intracellular level of H2O2, and mitochondrial O2 consumption rate. Intracellular ATP content was significantly increased when both DHMBA and ES were loaded at the same time, suggesting their synergic action. Phosphorylated AMPKα, AMPKβ1, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase were increased by DHMBA, indicating a possible role for DHMBA for activation of metabolic adaptation system and consequent increase of fatty acid oxidation. In conclusion, DHMBA solely or in collaboration with exercise might possibly serve as a fitness food for obese persons by stimulating muscular fatty acid utilization and mitochondrial energy production. This assumption must be verified by animal experiment.

  The phenolic compound 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA) is a natural antioxidant recently isolated from the Pacific oyster. DHMBA, up to a concentration of 500 mu M, has demonstrated a strong in vitro hepatocyte-protective effect from oxidative stress without any cytotoxicity. This study investigated the in vivo potential of DHMBA-rich oyster extracts (DOE) for prevention or attenuation of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH-model mice, developed by supplementation of a high-fat diet for 23 weeks and intravenous injections of oxidised low-density lipoproteins, exhibited obesity, insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and apoptosis. These changes were significantly moderated by supplementation of DOE. The search for an underlying mechanism determined that DOE significantly improved the redox status of DNA, proteins, and lipids. Moreover, DOE suppressed the increase of hepatic expression of PPARy and CD36 (fatty acid transporter) in the NASH-model mice. DOE might serve as a functional food for people at elevated risk for NASH. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

  A novel amphipathic phenolic compound, 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA), that can be isolated from the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) has been found to protect human hepatocytes against oxidative stress. This study aims to establish a method for the measurement of DHMBA for industrial application. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry using deuterated DHMBA as an internal standard and a polar end-capped ODS (Hypersil GOLD aQ) as the solid phase was validated. The limit of detection was 0.04 pmol (S/N = 5), and the limit of quantitation was 0.1 pmol (S/N = 10). The calibration curve was linear throughout the range of 0.1 - 16 pmol (r(2) = 0.9995). This method successfully quantified DHMBA in oysters from 11 sea areas in Japan. The results showed that the yield of DHMBA was variable from 9.8 to 58.8 mu g g(-1) whole oyster meat wet weight but not affected by the seawater temperature. The proposed LC-MS/MS method is useful in quantitative studies for DHMBA and potentially for other amphipathic substances.

  Background Evaluation of low-density lipoprotein oxidation is important in the risk assessment of cardiovascular disease. Atomic force microscope is widely used to evaluate the physical properties including stiffness on a single-particle scale. In this study, the effect of low-density lipoprotein oxidation on the low-density lipoprotein stiffness was investigated using an atomic force microscope. Methods Isolated low-density lipoprotein particles with or without oxidation were densely bound to an Au substrate on mica, and then pressed and deformed by the atomic force microscope tip. The stiffness of each low-density lipoprotein particle was estimated as the elastic modulus obtained by the force curve analysis. Biochemical change of low-density lipoprotein due to oxidation was studied by electrophoresis. Results and conclusion The elastic modulus of low-density lipoprotein particles ranged between 0.1 and 2MPa. The oxidation of low-density lipoprotein increased the number of low-density lipoprotein particles with smaller elastic moduli, indicating the decrease in low-density lipoprotein stiffness. The elastic modulus of low-density lipoprotein might be potentially useful to evaluate low-density lipoprotein oxidation.

  Background: The role of triglycerides carried in the triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) in the progression of atherosclerosis is uncertain. Identification of oxidized triglycerides and its possible association with atherosclerosis were largely ignored. Here we applied mass spectrometric approach to detect and identify triglyceride hydroperoxides (TGOOH) in human plasma and lipoproteins. Methods: EDTA plasma was collected from healthy human volunteers (n = 9) after 14-16 h of fasting. Very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) (d<1.006) and intermediatedensity lipoprotein (IDL) (d=1.006-1.019) were isolated from the plasma (n=6) by sequential ultracentrifugation in KBr, followed by the isolation of LDL and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) using size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Total lipids from the plasma and isolated lipoproteins were extracted, and analyzed for the detection and identification of TGOOH using liquid chromatography/LTQ ion trap Orbitrap mass spectrometry. All the processes, from specimen collection to the mass spectrometric analysis, were carried out at 4 degrees C in the presence of antioxidant to prevent oxidation of lipoproteins. Results: We identified 11 molecular species of TGOOH in either plasma or VLDL and IDL, of which TGOOH-18:1/18:2/16:0, TGOOH-18:1/18:1/16:0, TGOOH-16:0/18:2/16:0, TGOOH-18:1/18:1/18:1, and TGOOH-16:0/20:4/16:0 were most dominant. These TGOOH molecules are carried by TRL but not by LDL and HDL. Mean concentration of TGOOH in plasma, VLDL and IDL were, respectively, 56.1 +/- 25.6, 349.8 +/- 253.6 and 512.5 +/- 173.2 mu mol/mol of triglycerides. Conclusions: This is the first report to identify several molecular species of oxidized triglycerides in TRL. Presence of oxidized triglyceride may contribute to the atherogenicity of TRL. Further work is needed to elucidate the association of the oxidized triglyceride in atherosclerosis.

  Background Capric acid (FA10:0, decanoic acid) is a medium-chain fatty acid abundant in tropical oils such as coconut oil, whereas small amounts are present in milk of goat, cow, and human. Orally ingested FA10:0 is transported to the liver and quickly burnt within it. Only few reports are available for FA10:0 concentrations in human plasma. Methods Fasting (n=5, male/female=3/2, age 319.3 years old) and non-fasting (n=106, male/female=44/62, age 21.93.2 years old) blood samples were collected from apparently healthy Japanese volunteers. The total FA10:0 in the plasma were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography after derivatization with 2-nitrophenylhydrazine followed by UV detection. Results Inter and intra-assay coefficient of variation of FA10:0 assay at three different concentrations ranged in 1.7-3.9 and 1.3-5.4%, respectively, with an analytical recovery of 95.2-104.0%. FA10:0 concentration was below detection limit (0.1 mu mol/L) in each fasting human plasma. FA10:0 was not detected in 50 (47.2%) of 106 non-fasting blood samples, while 29 (27.4%) plasma samples contained FA10:0 less than or equal to 0.5 mu mol/L (0.4 +/- 0.1), and 27 (25.5%) contained it at more than 0.5 mu mol/L (0.9 +/- 0.3). Conclusion A half of the non-fasting plasma samples contained detectable FA10:0. This simple, precise, and accurate high-performance liquid chromatography method might be useful for monitoring plasma FA10:0 during medium-chain triglycerides therapy.

  The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia pneumoniae is not only a causative agent of community-acquired pneumonia but is also associated with a more serious chronic disease, asthma, which might be exacerbated by air pollution containing carbon nanoparticles. Although a detailed mechanism of exacerbation remains unknown, the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin- 1 beta (IL-1 beta) is a critical player in the pathogenesis of asthma. C. pneumoniae induces IL-1 beta in macrophages via NACHT, LRR, and PYD domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation and Toll-like receptor 2/4 (TLR2/4) stimulation. Carbon nanoparticles, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), can also evoke the NLRP3 inflammasome to trigger IL-1 beta secretion from lipopolysaccharide-primed macrophages. This study assessed whether costimulation of C. pneumoniae with CNTs synergistically enhanced IL-1 beta secretion from macrophages, and determined the molecular mechanism involved. Enhanced IL-1 beta secretion from C. pneumoniae-infected macrophages by CNTs was dose and time dependent. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that C. pneumoniae and CNTs were engulfed concurrently by macrophages. Inhibitors of actin polymerization or caspase-1, a component of the inflammasome, significantly blocked IL-1 beta secretion. Gene silencing using small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting the NLRP3 gene also abolished IL-1 beta secretion. Other inhibitors (K+ efflux inhibitor, cathepsin B inhibitor, and reactive oxygen species-generating inhibitor) also blocked IL-1 beta secretion. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that CNTs synergistically enhanced IL-1 beta secretion from C. pneumoniae-infected macrophages via the NLRP3 inflammasome and caspase-1 activation, providing novel insight into our understanding of how C. pneumoniae infection can exacerbate asthma.

  The antioxidant, and hepatoprotective properties of 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA), a natural phenolic antioxidant isolated from the Pacific oyster, were defined using cultured human hepatocyte-derived cells (C3A). DHMBA showed no cytotoxicity at 62.5-500 mu M, as well as chlorogenic acid (CGA), vitamin C, and vitamin E. However, butylated hydroxytoluene, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid and catechin reduced cell viability. In the presence of the prooxidant 2,2'-azobis(2-amidino-propane) dihydrochloride (AAPH), DHMBA at 125-500 mu M improved cell viability, whereas CGA had no effect. DNA ladder formation and flow-cytometric studies indicated that DHMBA inhibited MPH-induced apoptosis and necrosis. CGA was ineffective. Thus, DHMBA is a novel, potent antioxidant, effectively protecting cultured hepatocytes from apoptosis and necrosis caused by oxidative stress. Additionally, the concentration of DHMBA was determined by mass spectrometry to be 24.4 mu mol/kg wet oyster meat, and three polyphenols (gentisic acid, daidzein, and matairesinol) were newly identified in the oyster extracts.

  Background: Identifying risk factors is crucial for preventing cardiovascular events, but there are no widely accepted predictive biomarkers. In our previous study of Japanese asymptomatic cohorts, we performed global analysis of serum ether glycerophospholipids (Egp) molecular profiles, and found that choline plasmalogens (PlsCho; 1-O-alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), particularly those containing oleic acid (18:1) in the sn-2 position, were strongly associated with a wide range of risk factors for metabolic syndrome/atherosclerosis. Methods: We determined serum concentrations of Egp molecular species of coronary artery disease patients (n = 50; 31 males and 19 females) by LC/MS/MS, and plasmalogen (Pls; 1-O-alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycerophospholipids) contents in lipoprotein fractions by HPLC using radioactive iodine. Results: We found that the serum concentrations of ether choline glycerophospholipids (EgpCho), particularly PlsCho, were not only significantly lower in males with significant coronary stenosis but also associated with atherosclerosis-related parameters, and their association was stronger than either high-density lipoprotein cholesterol or adiponectin. In addition, serum PlsCho containing 18:1 or linoleic acid (18:2) in sn-2 showed the highest correlations with a wide range of atherogenic parameters among PlsCho molecular species. Conclusion: These results verify our previous findings that serum PlsCho, particularly those containing 18:1 in sn-2, may serve as reliable biomarkers for atherosclerosis. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

  Background Oxidation of lipoproteins is thought to play a crucial role in atherogenesis. Role for triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in atherogenesis is unclear. Thus, we aimed to investigate whether cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides (CEOOH) are present in very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL) by using highly sensitive liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. Methods Total lipids were extracted from the plasma of healthy donors (n=6) and their fractions of VLDL and IDL. Additional three plasma samples were analysed freshly for CEOOH. Detection and identification of CEOOH was conducted by liquid chromatography/LTQ ion trap mass spectrometry/Orbitrap high mass accuracy mass spectrometry. Authentic standards of CEOOH were used for unequivocal identification on the basis of their mass spectra. Results We identified six molecular CEOOH species overall, namely, Ch18:1-OOH, Ch18:2-OOH, Ch18:3-OOH, Ch20:4-OOH, Ch20:5-OOH and Ch22:6-OOH. Of them, Ch18:2-OOH, Ch20:5-OOH, Ch20:4-OOH and Ch22:6-OOH were detected in all IDL samples, while only Ch20:4-OOH was detected in all VLDL samples. All of CEOOH species except for Ch18:3-OOH were detected in plasma, with constant detection of Ch20:5-OOH, and Ch22:6-OOH in all plasma samples. Conclusion The presence of CEOOH species in VLDL and IDL was confirmed with the analytical sensitivity of 0.1pmol, showing the constant appearance of more CEOOH species in IDL than VLDL. This finding might add biochemical evidences of atherogenicity of these lipoproteins. Clinical utility of measuring CEOOH level in these lipoproteins need to be investigated for the risk assessment of the cardiovascular disease.

  Background: Influence of hyperphenylalaninemia on lipoproteins in early life remains unclear. Methods: We enrolled 24 phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH)-deficient children who were classified into a phenylketonuria (PKU) group (n = 12) lacking PAH activity and a benign hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) group (n = 12) having partial PAH activity, and their 11 non-affected siblings. We measured serum total-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels together with apolipoproteins for the first year of life, and compared them with those of 30 age-matched healthy controls. Results: The affected groups invariably had lower cholesterol levels than non-affected groups. At birth, HDL-cholesterol decrease was greatest and predominated over the LDL-cholesterol decrease: total cholesterol, 28/36% decrease to the control level in HPA/PKU; HDL-cholesterol, 33/51%; LDL-cholesterol, 20/28%. At 3 months, the opposite changes were observed: total cholesterol, 16/28%; HDL-cholesterol, 13/23%; LDL-cholesterol, 16/33%. At 12 months, LDL were still significantly lower in both groups (8/18%, p < .05 and .001), although HDL was significantly decreased only in the PKU group (15%, p < .05). Apolipoprotein A-I/A-II and B changed respectively in accordance with HDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol changes. Despite similar phenylalanine levels, the PKU group invariably had lower cholesterol concentrations than the HPA group had. Conclusion: Irrespective of phenylalanine concentrations, lipoprotein synthesis in PAH-deficient children, particularly in PKU children, was suppressed in early life. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

  Serum plasmalogens (Pls) (1-O-alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl glycerophospholipids) are of particular interest for studies on metabolic disorders associated with oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. Serum levels of Pls are known to correlate positively with HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C); however, few studies have examined serum Pls molecular species in association with pathophysiological conditions and their clinical significance. To clarify these, we determined serum levels of individual ether glycerophospholipids in Japanese asymptomatic cohorts (n = 428; 362 male and 66 female subjects) by LC/MS/MS, and examined their correlations with clinical parameters. We found that the proportion of choline Pls (PlsCho) among total serum phospholipids was significantly lower in the male group over 40 years old and was associated with multiple risk parameters more strongly than HDL-C. The abundance of serum PlsCho with oleic acid (18:1) in sn-2 exhibited the strongest positive correlation with serum concentrations of adiponectin and HDL-C, while being inversely associated with waist circumference and the serum levels of TG and small dense LDL-cholesterol. The characterization of serum ether glycerophospholipids verified the specificity of PlsCho, particularly the ones with 18:1 in sn-2, as a sensitive biomarker for the atherogenic state.

  In this paper, a novel method for evaluating antioxidant activity against low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation (anti-LDLox) using a carbon nanotube (CNT) based electrode was investigated. Although ORAC and DPPH are known methods to evaluate antioxidant activity, they do not directly reflect the capacities of anti-LDLox. A method has been reported for measuring oxidized LDL using a CNT electrode. We evaluated anti-LDLox by measuring the amount of oxidized LDL using the electrode after incubation of LDL with antioxidants during copper-mediated oxidation. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were also determined for comparison with the CNT electrode. There was a correlation of the CNT electrode with the TBARS and the ORAC, whereas no correlation was found between the CNT electrode and the DPPH. We demonstrate here that a CNT electrode method has a potential for the determination of the antioxidant activity of various natural and synthetic compounds by detecting oxidized LDL.

  Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) deficiency manifesting neutral lipid storage disease with myopathy/triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy presents distinct fat-containing vacuoles known as Jordans' anomaly in peripheral leucocytes. To develop an automatic notification system for Jordans' anomaly in ATGL-deficient patients, we analyzed circulatory leukocyte scattergrams on automated hematology analyzer XE-5000. The BASO-WX and BASO-WY values were found to be significantly higher in patients than those in non-affected subjects. The two parameters measured by automated hematology analyzer may be expected to provide an important diagnostic clue for homozygous ATGL deficiency. © 2014 The Authors.

  Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL, also known as PNPLA2) is an essential molecule for hydrolysis of intracellular triglyceride (TG). Genetic ATGL deficiency is a rare multi-systemic neutral lipid storage disease. Information regarding its clinical profile and pathophysiology, particularly for cardiac involvement, is still very limited. A previous middle-aged ATGL-deficient patient in our institute (Case 1) with severe heart failure required cardiac transplantation (CTx) and exhibited a novel phenotype, "Triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV)". Here, we tried to elucidate molecular mechanism underlying TGCV. The subjects were two cases with TGCV, including our second case who was a 33-year-old male patient (Case 2) with congestive heart failure requiring CTx. Case 2 was homozygous for a point mutation in the 5' splice donor site of intron 5 in the ATGL, which results in at least two types of mRNAs due to splicing defects. The myocardium of both patients (Cases 1 and 2) showed up-regulation of peroxisome proliferated activated receptors (PPARs), key transcription factors for metabolism of long chain fatty acids (LCFAs), which was in contrast to these molecules' lower expression in ATGL-targeted mice. We investigated the intracellular metabolism of LCFAs under human ATGL-deficient conditions using patients' passaged skin fibroblasts as a model. ATGL-deficient cells showed higher uptake and abnormal intracellular transport of LCFA, resulting in massive TG accumulation. We used these findings from cardiac specimens and cell-biological experiments to construct a hypothetical model to clarify the pathophysiology of the human disorder. In patients with TGCV, even when hydrolysis of intracellular TG is defective, the marked up-regulation of PPAR gamma and related.genes may lead to increased uptake of LCFAs, the substrates for TG synthesis. This potentially vicious cycle of LCFAs could explain the massive accumulation of TG and severe clinical course for this rare disease. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

  Background The size of lipoprotein particles is relevant to the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods We investigated the feasibility of atomic force microscopy (AFM) for evaluating the size of large low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and small dense LDL (sd-LDL) separated by ultracentrifugation. The measurements by AFM in tapping mode were compared to those by electron microscopy (EM). Results There was a significant difference in particle sizes determined by AFM between large LDL (20.61.9nm, mean +/- SD) and sd-LDL (16.2 +/- 1.4nm) obtained from six healthy volunteers (P<0.05). The particle sizes determined by EM for the same samples were 23.2 +/- 1.4nm for large LDL and 20.4 +/- 1.4nm for sd-LDL. The difference between large LDL and sd-LDL detected by EM was also statistically significant (P<0.05). In addition, the particle sizes of each lipoprotein fraction were significantly different between AFM and EM: P<0.05 for large LDL and P<0.05 for sd-LDL. Conclusions AFM can differentiate between sd-LDL and large LDL particles by their size, and might be useful for evaluating risk for CAD.

  Oxidized-low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL), which is generated by LDL oxidation, is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease development. LDL has positive charges on the surface attributable to amino groups of lysine moieties on Apo B-100. Its positive charge is decreased by oxidation. For this paper, the topography and surface potential of LDL and ox-LDL are measured using atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM). Although it is difficult to ascertain a difference between topographic images of LDL and ox-LDL, the KPFM images of ox-LDL differ from those obtained using LDL. The averaged potential of the surface decreases concomitantly with increasing oxidation time of the LDL. We demonstrate a method to evaluate the oxidation level of LDL using KPFM.

  Background: Urinary 18-hydroxycortisol has been investigated as a marker of aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA). The aim of this study was to develop and validate a method for the measurement of 18-hydroxycortisol using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Methods: Urine was collected over a 24-hour period in patients with APA (n=11), idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA, n=9), and essential hypertension (EH, n=6). 18-Hydroxycortisol was extracted in solid-phase, and measured by LC-MS/MS based on selected reaction monitoring. Results: The method allowed quantification of 18-hydroxycortisol with a lower quantification limit of 0.26nmol/L, intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation of <3.4% and a range of analytical recovery of 98.0-103.7%. Urinary 18-hydroxycortisol excretion for APA, IHA and EH were determined as 725 (SD 451), 102 (SD 68) and 88 (SD 76) nmol/day, respectively. Conclusions: The proposed method met the basic analytical requirements and was considered to be useful in the screening and differential diagnosis of APA.

  Background: Triglyceride-rich, low-density lipoproteins (TG-rich LDL) have been reported as an oxidized lipoprotein species in patients with severe liver disease. Using TG-rich LDL as an immunogen, we obtained a monoclonal antibody (G11-6) that reacted with TG-rich LDL from patients with liver disease and with metal-oxidized LDL only in the early process of the oxidation reaction. This study determined the G11-6-reactive lipoproteins in hypertriglyceridemic serum. Methods: Serum samples from healthy volunteers (n=12) and hypertriglyceridemic patients (n=9) were fractionated by gel filtration and subjected to a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using G11-6 and polyclonal anti-apolipoprotein B antibodies. Results: Small LDL and larger lipoproteins reacted with G11-6. G11-6-reactive small LDL was identified in both the healthy subjects and hypertriglyceridemic patients, whereas G11-6-reactive larger lipoproteins were found only in the hypertriglyceridemic patients. Conclusions: G11-6 is a useful tool for detecting increased large oxidized lipoproteins in hypertriglyceridemic patients.

  Measurement of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) generated by oxidative stress of various kinds might be useful for evaluating the risk of cardiovascular disease. We evaluated some electrode materials to detect oxidized LDL electrochemically. Some carbon nanotube dispersions were studied as electrode materials. Native LDL was isolated from normal human serum using ultracentrifugation. Oxidized LDL was prepared by treating the native LDL with CuSO4. Electrodes were fabricated by depositing the nanotube dispersion on a gold electrode, with subsequent drying. The potential change of the electrode against a reference electrode was monitored before and after adding native LDL or oxidized LDL. Only acid-treated carbon nanotubes were able to discriminate both LDL preparations, perhaps because of the carboxylic acid groups introduced on the nanotube by acid treatment.

  Carbon nanotubes are sometimes treated with an acid or mixture of acids to increase their solubility. From results of our study of single-walled carbon nanotubes, we reported that a CNT-based electrode can detect oxidation of low density-lipoproteins. As described herein, we investigated the effects of acid treatment time on electrode sensitivity for detection of oxidized low-density lipoproteins. Response capabilities of CNT-based electrodes for detecting ox-LDL were improved by acid treatment. However, further increased treatment time degraded their sensitivity. Although detailed mechanisms related to the response are under investigation, results show that an optimum condition exists for acid treatment condition to detect ox-LDL using an electrode.

  Herein, we represent a simple method for the detection and characterization of molecular species of triacylglycerol monohydroperoxides (TGOOH) in biological samples by use of reversed-phase liquid chromatography with a LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer (LC/LTQ Orbitrap) via an electrospray ionization source. Data were acquired using high-resolution, high-mass accuracy in Fourier-transform mode. Platform performance, related to the identification of TGOOH in human lipoproteins and plasma, was estimated using extracted ion chromatograms with mass tolerance windows of 5 ppm. Native low-density lipoproteins (nLDL) and native high-density lipoproteins (nHDL) from a healthy donor were oxidized by CuSO4 to generate oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and oxidized HDL (oxHDL). No TGOOH molecular species were detected in the nLDL and nHDL, whereas 11 species of TGOOH molecules were detected in the oxLDL and oxHDL. In positiveion mode, TGOOH was found as [M + NH4]+. In negativeion mode, TGOOH was observed as [M + CH3COO]-. TGOOH was more easily ionized in positive-ion mode than in negative-ion mode. The LC/LTQ Orbitrap method was applied to human plasma and three molecular species of TGOOH were detected. The limit of detection is 0.1 pmol (S/N=10:1) for each synthesized TGOOH. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.

  3,5-Dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol (DHMBA), an antioxidant isolated from the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), was studied in a cell-based fluorometric antioxidant assay using human hepatocyte-derived cells (C3A) and diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine (DPPP) as a fluorescent probe. In comparison with two hydrophilic antioxidants. DHMBA showed the stronger inhibition of DPPP-mediated fluorescence than chlorogenic acid and L-ascorbic acid: at a concentration of 320 mu M of DPPP, the inhibition was 26.4 +/- 2.6%, 11.1 +/- 1.2%, and 0 +/- 2.0% for DHMBA, chlorogenic acid, and L-ascorbic acid, respectively (mean +/- SD, n = 4). Their relative oxygen radical absorbance capacities (ORAC) were dissociated with their cell-based antioxidant activities: 1.47 +/- 0.40, 4.57 +/- 0.30, and 0.53 +/- 0.13 mu mol TE/mu mol for DHMBA, chlorogenic acid, and L-ascorbic acid, respectively (mean +/- SD, n = 4). The amphiphilicity of DHMBA was better than chlorogenic acid and L-ascorbic acid might underlie this dissociation. Since the C3A cells are human hepatoma-derived cells, DHMBA might be useful in the prevention and treatment of liver diseases by involving an oxidation process. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

  Background: Triglyceride-rich low-density lipoproteins (TG-rich LDLs) in the plasma of patients with severe liver disease are reported to change macrophages into foam cells in vitro. Methods: Male BALB/c mice were immunized with TG-rich LDLs isolated from the plasma of a patient with severe liver disease. The resulting monoclonal antibody (G11-6) was used in a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in combination with polyclonal anti-apolipoprotein B antibodies. The time course of copper-mediated LDL oxidation was monitored using this ELISA. The results were compared with those of the two commercial ELISAs for oxidized LDLs using DLH or ML25, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and the optical absorbance for the conjugated dienes generated in lipid peroxides. Furthermore, the lipoprotein fractions separated by gel filtration were tested with this ELISA in healthy volunteers (n = 11) and patients (n = 3) with liver disease. Results: G11-6 reacted with oxidized LDLs during only the early phase of copper oxidation, being distinct from the other monoclonal antibodies and methods. G11-6 was confirmed to react with TG-rich LDLs in patients, while it reacted with small LDL particles in normal controls. Conclusions: The monoclonal antibody G11-6 is useful for detecting oxidized small LDLs in normal controls and oxidized TG-rich LDLs in patients with severe liver disease.

  Oxidation of cholesteryl esters in lipoproteins by reactive oxygen species yields cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides (CEOOH). In this study, we developed a novel method for identification and characterization of CEOOH molecules in human lipoproteins by use of reversed-phase liquid chromatography with an hybrid linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometer (LC-LTQ Orbitrap). Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric analysis was performed in both positive-ion and negative-ion modes. Identification of CEOOH molecules was completed by use of high-mass-accuracy (MA) mass spectrometric data obtained by using the spectrometer in Fourier-transform (FT) mode. Native low-density lipoproteins (nLDL) and native high-density lipoproteins (nHDL) from a healthy donor were oxidized by CuSO4, furnishing oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and oxidized HDL (oxHDL). No CEOOH molecules were detected in the nLDL and the nHDL, whereas six CEOOH molecules were detected in the oxLDL and the oxHDL. In positive-ion mode, CEOOH was detected as [M + NH4](+) and [M + Na](+) ions. In negative-ion mode, CEOOH was detected as [M + CH3COO](-) ions. CEOOH were more easily ionized in positive-ion mode than in negative-ion mode. The LC-LTQ Orbitrap method was applied to human plasma and six species of CEOOH were detected. The limit of detection was 0.1 pmol (S/N = 5:1) for synthesized CEOOH.

  1-Palmitoyl-2-linoleoylphosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide (PC 16:0/18:2-OOH) and 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoylphosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide (PC 18:0/18:2-OOH) were measured by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) using nonendogenous 1-palmitoyl-2-heptadecenoylphosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide as an internal standard. The calibration curves for synthetic PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH, which were obtained by direct injection of the internal standard into the LC/MS system, were linear throughout the calibration range (0.8-12.8 pmol). Within-day and between-day coefficients of variation were less than 10%, and the recoveries were between 86% and 105%. The limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantification (LOQ) were determined using synthetic standards. The LOD (signal-to-noise ratio 3:1) was 0.01 pmol, and the LOQ (signal-to-noise ratio 6:1) was 0.08 pmol for both PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH. With use of this method, the concentrations of PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH in the lipoprotein fractions during copper-mediated oxidation were determined. We prepared oxLDL and oxHDL by incubating native LDL and native HDL from human plasma (n = 10) with CuSO4 for up to 4 h. The time course of the PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH levels during oxidation consisted of three phases. For oxidized LDL, both compounds exhibited a slow lag phase and a subsequent rapidly increasing propagation phase, followed by a gradually decreasing degradation phase. In contrast, for oxidized HDL, both compounds initially exhibited a prompt propagation phase with a subsequent plateau phase, followed by a rapid degradation phase. The analytical LC/MS method for phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides might be useful for the analysis of biological samples.

  Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) play a key role in cardiovascular disease development, but no convenient measurement method is available for them. Using a carbon nanotube (CNT) electrode, we measured oxidized LDL using amperometric detection. Treating SWCNT with a mixture of acids produced a CNT dispersion that yielded nanotube-based electrodes after deposition on a gold electrode and drying. Current was monitored in the nanotube electrode before and after adding LDL or oxidization of LDL Oxidized LDL changed the current more than 10 nA, although LDL addition induced no significant change. Our CNT electrode enables simple detection of oxidized LDL. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  Using an oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, antioxidant activity was detected in the ethanol extract of the Pacific oyster, which was purified by sequential extraction with organic solvents. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the strongest antioxidant activity and was further purified, yielding a single compound [as assessed by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)]. This compound was identified as 3,5-dihydroxy4-metboxybenzyl alcohol on the basis of H-1 and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), heteronuclear multiple-bond correlz.tion (HMBC), and electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) spectral analyses, a conclusion that was confirmed bycheinical synthesis. The concentration of the compound was 6.7 mg/100 g of whole oyster meat wet weight. This azaphi'philic gritiosidant retarded the copper mediated oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDLs) and the generation of,tr.ickarbitonc acid.teactive substances. Furthermore, the compound showed substantial antioxidant activity using the ORAC and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrythy'drazyl (DPPH) assays compared to natural antioxidants. Although the same compound was previously found in brown algae, its presence in other organisms and antioxidant activity are reported here for the first time.

  Investigation of the properties of oxidized low-density lipoprotein is important because it is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease development. Low-density lipoprotein is known to have a positive charge on the surface attributable to amino groups of lysine moieties. Its positive charge can be decreased by oxidation. For this study, the topography and surface potential of LDL and ox-LDL were measured using atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe force microscopy. The Kelvin probe force microscopy images of ox-LDL differ from those obtained using n-LDL. We demonstrated a method to evaluate the oxidation level of LDL using AFM and KPFM.

  Fatty acid (FA) beta-oxidation defects cause hypoglycemia. Our aim was to determine if CD36-a membrane transporter for long-chain FAs-deficiency predisposes children to hypoglycemia. After overnight fasting, we measured parameters for carbohydrate and FA metabolisms at 12-, 14-, and 16-hour fasting points in 51 preschool children with histories of episodic hypoglycemia and 49 age-matched healthy controls. Simultaneously, the expressions of CD36 on platelets and monocytes were examined to determine the phenotypes. Six of the 51 hypoglycemic children and none of the 49 control children were diagnosed as having type I CD36 deficiency. Four and 3 children were diagnosed as having type II CD36 deficiency, respectively. Hypoglycemia was often recurrent in the type I CD36 group. At any fasting point, the type I CD36 group showed significantly lower blood glucose and insulin concentrations than the other groups: glucose, P < .001 vs control group and P < .01 or P < .001 vs type II/wild-type CD36 hypoglycemic groups; insulin, P < .001 vs control group and P < .01 vs type II/wild-type CD36 hypoglycemic groups. Free FA concentration in the type I group was always 1.5- to 2.0-fold higher than that in the other groups, whereas the total ketone body concentration was consistently about two thirds of that in the other groups. Among the type II, wild-type, and control groups, there were no significant differences in the parameters except that the wild-type group showed significantly lower FFA concentration (P < .05). These results suggested that type I CD36 deficiency but not type II CD36 deficiency predisposes preschool children to hypoglycemia. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

  A new liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) method has been developed for the quantitative analysis of plasmalogens in human plasma using a nonendogenous plasmalogen (1-O-1'-(Z)-tricosenyl-2-oleoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine, PLS 23:0/18:1) as an internal standard. 1-O-1'-(Z)-Tricosenyl glyceryl ether was prepared by reacting lithioalkoxyallyl with 1-iodoeicosane as the key intermediate in the formation of PLS 23:0/18:1. In LC/MS analyses, PLS 23:0/18:1 generated significant fragment ions in positive and negative modes. In positive ion mode, the [M+H](+) of PLS 23:0/18:1 yielded unique fragments with cleavages at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone. In negative ion mode, the [M+CH(3)COO](-) of PLS 23:0/18:1 resulted in characteristic fragmentation at the sn-2 and sn-3 positions. 1-O-1'-(Z)-Hexadecenyl-2-linoleoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PLS 16:0/18:2) and 2-arachidonoyl-O-1'-(Z)-hexadecenyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PLS 16:0/20:4) were chemically synthesized as PLS 23:0/18:1. The calibration curves obtained for PLS 16:0/18:2 and PLS 16:0/20:4 were linear throughout the calibration range (0.04-1.60 pmol). The LOD (S/N = 5:1) was 0.008 pmol and the LOQ (S/N = 6:1) was 0.01 pmol for both PLS 16:0/18:2 and PLS 16:0/20:4. Plasma concentrations of PLS 16:0/18:2 and PLS 16:0/20:4 were 4.0 +/- 1.3 mu M and 3.5 +/- 1.2 mu M (mean +/- SD), respectively, in five healthy volunteers.

  The enoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) hydratase catalyzes the hydration of 2-enoyl-CoA to yield 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA in mitochondrial and peroxisomal beta-oxidation. However, the stereospecificities of these hydratases differ from each other. To provide clear evidence of the stereospecificities of hydratases, the absolute configuration of 3-hydroxyhexadecanoyl-CoAs was determined, and they were subjected to a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral separation column. The retention time of 3(R)-hydroxyhexadecanoyl-CoA was shorter than that of 3(S)-hydroxyhexadecanoyl-CoA. The HPLC analysis carried out using a chiral separation column is considered to be useful for the study of enoyl-CoA hydratase.

  Background: A simple method for the measurement of LDL particle sizes is needed in clinical laboratories because a predominance of small, dense LDL (sd LDL) has been associated with coronary heart disease. We applied dynamic light scattering (DLS) to measure lipoprotein particle sizes, with special reference to sd LDL. Methods: Human serum lipoproteins isolated by a combination of ultracentrifugation and gel chromatography, or by sequential ultracentrifugation, were measured for particle size using DLS. Results: The sizes of polystyrene beads, with diameters of 21 and 28 nm according to the manufacturer, were determined by DLS as 19.3 +/- 1.0 nm (mean +/- SD, n = 11) and 25.5 +/- 1.0 nm, respectively. The coefficients of variation for the 21 and 28 nm beads were 5.1% and 3.8% (within-run, n = 11), and 2.9% and 6.2% (between-run, n = 3), respectively. The lipoprotein sizes determined by DLS for lipoprotein fractions isolated by chromatography were consistent with the elution profile. Whole serum, four isolated lipoprotein fractions (CM + VLDL + IDL, large LDL, sd LDL and HDL) and a non-lipoprotein fraction isolated by sequential ultracentrifugation were determined by DLS to be 13.1 +/- 7.5, 37.0 +/- 5.2, 21.5 +/- 0.8, 20.3 +/- 1.1, 8.6 +/- 1.5 and 8.8 +/- 2.0 nm, respectively. Conclusions: The proposed DLS method can differentiate the sizes of isolated lipoprotein particles, including large LDL and sd LDL, and might be used in clinical laboratories in combination with convenient lipoprotein separation.

  Monovalent bile acids, such as taurine- and glycine-conjugated bile acids, are excreted into bile by bile salt export pumps (BSEP, ABCB11). Human BSEP (hBSEP) is physiologically important because it was identified as the gene responsible for the genetic disease: progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC-2). The evaluation of the inhibitory effect of hBSEP transport activity provides significant information for predicting toxic potential in the early phase of drug development. The role and function of hBSEP have been investigated by the examination of the ATP-dependent transport of radioactive isotopically (RI) -labeled bile acid such as a tritium labeled taurocholic acid, in membrane vesicles obtained from hBSEP-expressing cells. The chemiluminescence detection method using 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 alpha-HSD) had been developed for a simple analysis of bile acids in human biological fluids. This method is extremely sensitive and it may be applicable for the measurements of bile acid transport activities by hBSEP vesicles without using RI-labeled bile acid. The present paper deals with an application of the chemiluminescence detection method using 3 alpha-HSD with enzyme cycling method to the measurement of ATP-dependent transport activities of taurocholic acid (T-CA) in membrane vesicles obtained from hBSEP-expressing Sf9 cells. Calibration curves for T-CA was linear over the range from 10 to 400 pmol/ml. The values of the kinetic parameters for hBSEP vesicles obtained by the chemiluminescence detection method were comparable with the values of that obtained by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method. This assay method was highly useful for the measurements of bile acid transport activities.

  A novel fluorescent bile acid derivative, 4-N,N-dimethylaminosulfony1-2,1.3-benzoxadiazole-conjugated bile acid was synthesized as a probe to develop a rapid screening method for function analysis of bile salt export pump (BSEP. ABCB 11) The transport properties of the synthetic fluorescent bile acid derivative in membrane vesicles obtained from hBSEP-expressing Sf9 cells were examined using the liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry method The Michaelis-Menten constant and maximum uptake rate for the synthetic fluorescent bile acid derivative by hBSEP were 23 1 +/- 1 6 mu M and 623 2 +/- 22 4 pmol/min/mg protein, respectively. These kinetic parameters of the synthetic fluorescent bile acid derivative were comparable with those of an unlabeled bile acid, taurocholic acid. Moreover, we examined inhibitory effects of various drugs on hBSEP-mediated uptake of the fluorescent bile acid derivative using a fluorescence detection method The relative uptake activities (percent of control) for the fluorescent bile acid derivative in the presence of an inhibitor were in accordance with previous findings using (3)H-labeled taurocholic acid Our results suggest that the synthetic fluorescent bile acid derivative may be useful for evaluation of the inhibitory effects of various drugs on hBSEP-mediated uptake.

  Alagille syndrome (AGS) is a rare hereditary disorder exhibiting fluctuating cholestasis and dyslipidemia. Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and liver X receptor (LXR) are hepatic nuclear receptors that regulate bile acid and lipoprotein metabolism. To investigate whether cholestasis is related to dyslipidemia and hepatic nuclear receptor expression in AGS patients, we determined the blood levels of total bile acid (TBA) and lipoprotein parameters, and examined hepatic nuclear receptor expression in three AGS children and their three incomplete AGS parents repeatedly over several years. In the AGS children, TBA level showed significant positive correlations with low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, apolipoprotein E (apoE)-rich high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), apoA-I, apoE, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) concentrations, but negative correlation with apoE-poor HDL-C concentration. Western blot analysis of liver biopsy specimens revealed that FXR and LXR expression increased in parallel with TBA level. CETP- and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 expression also increased with TBA level, while scavenger receptor class B type-I expression showed the opposite response. However, apoA-I expression was similar to the control level at any TBA level. In the incomplete AGS parents, TBA and lipoprotein parameters showed little fluctuation. In summary, cholestasis is closely related to dyslipidemia and hepatic nuclear receptor expression in AGS patients. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

  Background: High-density lipoprotein (HDL) consists of apolipoprotein E (apoE)-rich and apoE-poor HDL particles. ApoE-rich HDL level is high at birth but decreases after birth with reciprocal elevation in low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol. Objectives: The objective of the study was to clarify whether apoE-rich HDL decreases after birth in children with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a disorder caused by impaired LDL clearance. Methods: We measured apoE-rich HDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol during the first year of life in 10 FH children (one homozygote and nine heterozygotes), 12 non-FH siblings, and 75 healthy controls. Results: At birth, apoE-rich HDL-cholesterol was undetectable in a homozygous FH child and lower in heterozygous FH children than non-FH siblings and controls ( 4 +/- 2 vs. 12 +/- 4 and 11 +/- 4 mg/dl, P < 0.001). At 3-4 months, apoE-rich HDL-cholesterol increased in homozygous and heterozygous FH children and decreased in non-FH siblings and controls. At 12 months, apoE-rich HDL-cholesterol levels were similar among these four groups (6-7 mg/dl). In contrast, LDL-cholesterol concentration was always twice as high in heterozygous FH children as non-FH siblings and controls ( at birth, 50 +/- 15 vs. 25 +/- 7 and 25 +/- 5 mg/dl, P < 0.001; at 3 - 4 months of age, 159 +/- 29 vs. 71 similar to 16 and 73 +/- 15 mg/dl, P < 0.001; at 12 months of age, 156 +/- 29 vs. 75 +/- 18 and 76 +/- 17 mg/dl, P < 0.001). Conclusion: ApoE- rich HDL level is low at birth in FH children and increases to the normal level in the first year of life, opposite to the change in normal children.

  Quantitative and qualitative analyses of 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-phosphatidylcholne monohydroperoxide [PC 16:0/18:2-OOH] and 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoyl-phosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide [PC 18:0/18:2-OOH] in human plasma were improved by chemiluminescence HPLC using synthetic 1-stearoyl-2-erucoyl-phosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide (PC 18:0/22:1-OOH) as internal standard. The calibration curves of synthetic PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH, obtained by their direct injections with the IS into the HPLC system, were linear throughout the calibration range (10-1000 pmol). Within-day and between-day coefficients of variation were below 8%, and the recoveries were between 84% and 101%. Plasma concentrations of PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH were 102 +/- 59 nM (mean +/- SD) and 36 +/- 120 nM. respectively, in the 33 healthy volunteers. The present method might help understanding incompletely understood pathway of plasma phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  Background: An important role of CD36 in muscle fatty acid (FA) uptake has been shown in CD36-knockout or CD36-overexpressed mice. FA is a predominant substrate in energy production during light exercise below the anaerobic threshold (AT). We studied whether aerobic exercise capacity in humans could be affected by CD36 deficiency. Methods: We investigated the ventilatory threshold (VT) and serum FA changes in normal participants (n = 22) and participants with CD36 deficiency (n = 12) during pedalling on a cycle ergometer. Results: In participants with CD36 deficiency, FA levels were not reduced at peak work rate, whereas FA levels decreased by about 50% in normal participants. Participants with CD36 deficiency showed significantly lower VT than normal participants. A significant correlation was observed between VT and percentage changes in FA at peak work rate. Conclusion: This study found reduced FA utilisation and an attenuated aerobic exercise capacity in CD36 deficiency, indicating that CD36-mediated FA oxidation is an important determinant for aerobic exercise capacity in humans.

  Objective: Lipoprotein metabolism in FIC I deficiency due to ATP8B1 mutations has never been studied sufficiently. This study was performed to investigate the detailed lipoprotein metabolism in benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) caused by FIC1 deficiency. Patients and Methods: Lipoprotein profile and major lipoprotein regulators such as lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), hepatic triglyceride lipase (HTGL), lipoprotein lipase, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein in a Japanese patient with BRIC were serially examined during a bout of cholestasis. Liver expression of farnesoid X receptor (FXR), which suppresses high-density lipoprotein (HDL) generation., was also examined. Results: Hypercholesterolemia and lipoprotein X accumulation were never observed throughout this study. When the cholestasis was severe, triglyceride-rich low-density lipoprotem (LDL) accounted for most of the plasma lipoproteins whereas HDL was hardly detectable. Concurrently, activities of all regulators were decreased, together with decreases of the serum parameter for liver protein synthesis. In particular, suppressions of LCAT and HTGL activities were severe and greatly contributed to the appearance of triglyceride-rich LDL. As the cholestasis improved, this LDL gradually transformed into normal LDL with the recoveries of LCAT and HTGL activities. The activities of all regulators for the last I to 2 months were normal but HDL remained depleted. His liver showed low FXR expression compared with control livers. Conclusions: The present study showed an appearance of triglyceride-rich LDL due to suppressions of LCAT and HTGL activities and a depletion of HDL that is not able to be explained by lipoprotein regulators or FXR in our patient.

  We have developed a sensitive reversed-phase chemiluminescence HPLC approach for simultaneous quantitative and qualitative analyses of hydroperoxides of cholesteryl ester and TG in human plasma. Standard hydroperoxides of cholesteryl ester and TG and a novel internal standard (1 -tetradecanyl 3-octadecenoyloxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oate monohydroperoxicle) (I.S.) were chemically synthesized and the standard curves confirmed to be linear throughout the calibration range (1-1000 pmol). Within-day and between-day CV were less than 7%, and the recoveries were within the range of 84-93%. With sample size minimized to 0.1 mL of plasma for each run, plasma cholesteryl ester hydroperoxide levels were 189 +/- 87 nM (mean SD) in healthy young (22-25 yr old; n = 15, male/female = 6:9) and 210 69 nM in healthy elderly (39-60 yr old; n = 6, male/female = 3:3). TG hydroperoxide was not detected in healthy subjects. In patients with advanced liver failure (36-67 yr old; n = 4, male/female = 2:2), hydroperoxide levels of plasma cholesteryl ester and TG were 11,903 9,553 nM and 3,318 1,590 nM, respectively, indicating an involvement of lipid oxidation. Sensitive and specific monitoring of plasma lipid peroxides using the present chemiluminescence HPLC approach with the synthesized I.S. may help our understanding of chemical and pathophysiological aspects of lipid peroxidation.

  For the purpose of synthesizing standards to be used in the quantification of TAG hydroperoxides, three TAG (1,2-dioleoyl-3-palmitoylglycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-palmitoylglycerol, and triolein) monohydroperoxides were chemically synthesized as authentic specimens. TAG were prepared by using a simple condensation in pyridine of glycerol and the corresponding acid chlorides. These TAG were then converted into monohydroperoxides by a photosensitized peroxidation. The synthesized monohydroperoxides were analyzed by normal-phase and RP-HPLC. The results of normal-phase HPLC analysis showed that monohydroperoxides from a corresponding TAG were a mixture of regioisomers. In RP-HPLC, however, the regioisomers of monohydroperoxides were not separated and gave a single peak, which may improve the sensitivity for the detection of TAG monohydroperoxides. In this study TAG monohydroperoxide standards were synthesized; these will be useful for the study of yet unknown biological and pathological roles of TAG hydroperoxides.

  Lipid and lipoprotein profiles, and enzymes for the lipid metabolism were compared between cord and adult blood. Consistent with previous reports, the major lipoprotein in cord blood was high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and that in adult blood was low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The level of apolipoprotein E (apo E) in cord blood was almost equivalent to that in adult blood, while other apolipoproteins and lipids were all lower than the adult level. In cord blood, apo E-rich HDL cholesterol represented more than 30% of total HDL cholesterol (around 11% in adult), and the concentration was about twice of that in adult blood. This apo E-rich HDL cholesterol was poorly esterified (E/T 56%) compared with that in adults (93%). The lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity in cord blood was extremely low, while the activity and mass of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) were higher than those in adult blood. The apo E genotype did not show influences on total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, total HDL cholesterol, and apo E rich HDL cholesterol levels in cord blood, as opposed to those in adult blood. The association of D442G mutation of the CETP gene with the increased HDL cholesterol in adult blood was not seen in cord blood. Rather, the mutation was associated with low total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels in cord blood. These results indicate that, in fetus, the character and metabolism of HDL, especially of apo E-rich HDL cholesterol, are distinct from those in adults. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

  Previous in vitro studies have shown that CD36 participates in cellular fatty acid (FA) uptake. In vivo evidence for a physiologic role of CD36 in this process is poor and mostly obtained in animals. To examine the metabolic role of human CD36, we performed a glucose loading, test for normals (n = 16) and subjects with CD36 deficiency, both Type I (n = 5) and Type Il (n = 16). After 30 min, FA levels had fallen by 60.1% in normals but by only 31.7% in Type II deficiency (P <0.01 vs. normals) and 16.5% in Type I deficiency which remained significantly higher than the other two groups out to 2 h. Further, changes in triglyceride and glucose metabolism were observed in the both types of CD36 deficiency. Impaired fast FA clearance by muscle and consequently increased hepatic FA uptake seem to underlie these changes. We conclude that human CD36 deficiency causes systemic metabolic changes.

  CD36 deficiency was studied with attention to the phenotype-genotype relationship. The diagnosis of CD36 deficiency was made when CD36 was negative on platelets (type II) or on both platelets and monocytes (type I). Among 827 apparently healthy Japanese volunteers, the type I and II deficiencies were found in 8 (1.0%) and 48 (5.8%): respectively. The T for C substitution at nt478 for Pro90Ser and the insertion of A at nt1159 constituted the major causes of type I and II deficiencies. The dinucleotide deletion at nt539 had a minor role. In two family studies, we found a previously unreported polymorphic site in the 5'-proximal flanking region and the 3'-untranslated region. Including these new polymorphisms, DNA sequence other than the three known mutations affecting CD36 expression was not observed in the CD36:gene, calling into question the previous hypothesis that a platelet-specific silent allele exists near or at the CD36 gene.

  To find out whether CD36 plays a role in the human lipoprotein metabolism, we studied lipoprotein profiles in subjects with CD36 deficiency. Apparently healthy Japanese volunteers (n = 790) were classified by flow cytometry into three groups of normal (platelet and monocyte CD36+, n = 741, 93.8%), type-II deficiency (platelet CD36-and monocyte CD36+, n = 45, 5.7%), and type-II deficiency (platelet and monocyte CD36-, it = 4, 0.5%). At least one of reported mutations in the CD36 gene was found in all four subjects with type-I deficiency and in 23 of the 45 subjects with type II. Among 779 subjects (731 normals, 44 type II, and four type I) with serum triglyceride levels of <400 mg/dL, serum total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol were significantly elevated in type-II deficiency (P = 0.0095 and 0.0382 versus normal, respectively, Scheffe's F-test), while differences were not significant in triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Similar tendency was observed in type-I deficiency, although the differences were not statistically significant because of small sample size. We conclude that CD36 deficiency elevates LDL cholesterol, indicating a contribution of CD36 to LDL metabolism. (C) 2000 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
• Quantitative and compositional changes in high density lipoprotein subclasses in patients with various genotypes of cholesteryl ester transfer protein deficiency

  High density lipoprotein (HDL) with and without apolipoprotein (apo) E was quantified and characterized in subjects with three genotypes of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) deficiency: the nonsense mutation in intron 14 (10 homozygotes and 5 heterozygotes); the missense mutation in the exon 15 (3 homozygotes and 9 heterozygotes); and the Int14A/D442G in 6 compound heterozygotes. ApoE-poor and apoE-rich HDL-cholesterol levels were elevated significantly in all genotypic groups with the decrease in CETP activity, indicating that both types of HDL-cholesterol can be a substrate for CETP. However, an unchanged or only slightly increased serum apoA-II level in each genotype indicated that the HDL particles with apoA-II are relatively resistant to CETP-mediated lipid transfer. Serum apoE-rich HDL level was considerably higher in the Int14A homozygotes than in the compound heterozygotes, in spite of similar apoE-poor HDL-cholesterol levels, which may indicate that apoE-rich HDL is a better substrate for CETP than apoE-poor HDL. Although the apoE-rich and apoE-poor HDL subclasses were similar in the accumulation of cholesteryl ester and depletion of triglyceride, the accumulation of free cholesterol was unique to apoE-rich HDL, indicating inhibited cholesterol esterification on this lipoprotein. Clinical laboratories should be aware of the discrepancy in HDL-cholesterol measurements that comes from the different recoveries of apoE-rich HDL using commercial reagents. In conclusion, CETP deficiency causes considerable quantitative and compositional changes in HDL subclasses, reflecting a significant physiological role for CETP in HDL metabolism.

  The effects of the short term administration of triamcinolone (0.5 mg per 100 g body weight, 5 days) on apolipoprotein E and A-I concentrations in cerebrospinal fulid (CSF), brain extract and serum were studied in male Wistar rats using enzyme immunoassays. ApoE was significantly increased by triamcinolone in apoE-rich HDL(1) in serum; 40+/-13 (mean+/-SD) vs. 68+/-23 mg/dl(15 saline-treated rats vs. 11 triamcinolone-treated rats)(P<0.01), which was paralleled by an increase in serum apoA-I (76+/-21 vs. 184+/-24 mg/dl), while serum lipids also increased significantly. No significant difference was observed in the apoE concentrations in CSF (296+/-170 vs. 269+/-67 mu g/dl) or brain extract (5.0+/-1.6 vs. 5.7+/-1.8 mu g/g wet weight). The apoA-I concentrations found in CSF and brain extract were much lower than those for apoE and were not appreciably affected by triamcinolone: 7.7+/-5.5 vs. 4.5+/-3.1 mu g/dl for CSF and <0.5 vs. <0.5 mu g/g wet weight for brain extract. The apo E metabolism in the rat central nervous system appears to be refractory to the short term administration of triamcinolone and to changes in the serum lipoprotein metabolism. ApoA-I appears unlikely to play a significant role in the rat central nervous system.

  Copper-catalyzed oxidation of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) (0.8 g protein/l LDL, 20 mu mol/l CuSO4, 37 degrees C) resulted in the formation of thiobarbituric reactive substances that was substantially complete at 24 hrs whereas their formation from high-density lipoproteins (HDL) plateaued at only 25% of that amount after 8 hrs. The oxidized lipoproteins induced aggregation and increases in [Ca2+]i in washed platelets, but not in platelet-rich plasma, and these activating effects were not inhibited by aspirin or EGTA but were inhibited by both of the native lipoproteins. These results show that oxidized HDL, like oxidized LDL, have platelet activating ability and suggest that the native lipoproteins may play a crucial role in preventing the oxidized lipoprotein-mediated platelet activation.

  The effect of a polymorphism, guanine (G) to adenine (A) substitution in the promoter of apolipoprotein A-I gene at a position 78 bp upstream of the transcription initiation site, on the serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol level was studied in 168 Japanese subjects with HDL-cholesterol levels ranging from 26 to 171 mg/dl. Considering the significant effect of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) on the HDL-cholesterol level and the common occurrence of its deficiency, we per formed statistical analyses separately for two groups: one without CETP deficiency (n = 126) and the other with CETP deficiency (n = 42). In the group without CETP deficiency, in which the numbers of G/G, G/A, and A/A genotypes were 92 (73.0%), 28 (22.2%), and 6 (4.8%), respectively, the frequency of the A allele in the subjects with HDL-cholesterol levels of greater than or equal to 70 mg/dl did not differ from subjects with HDL-cholesterol levels of less than or equal to 69 mg/dl, irrespective of gender: 0.154 and 0.145 in males, and 0.182 and 0.174 in females, respectively, for the greater than or equal to 70 mg/dl and less than or equal to 69 mg/dl groups. Additionally, the HDL-cholesterol levels for the subjects with the G/G genotype did not differ from those for the subjects with the A allele: 64 +/- 22, 58 +/- 14, 77 +/- 14 and 62 +/- 16 mg/dl, respectively, for the G/G, G/A, A/A, and G/A + A/A in males, and 72 +/- 18, 74 +/- 24, 63 +/- 4, and 73 +/- 23 mg/dl in females. For the group with CETP deficiency, in which the numbers of G/G and G/A + A/A genotypes were 25 (59.5%) and 17 (40.5%), the HDL-cholesterol levels also did not differ: 98 +/- 24 mg/dl and 99 +/- 30 mg/dl, respectively, for the G/G and G/A + A/A genotypes. Thus, there is no evidence that the polymorphism has any effect on serum HDL-cholesterol levels regardless of CETP status. We conclude that the G-to-A substitution in the promoter of apolipoprotein A-I gene does not significantly alter serum HDL-cholesterol level.

  心筋梗塞は心不全の最も一般的な原因であり,世界の主要な死因として知られている.種々の心血管疾患の病態生理学プロセスは多様であるが,脂質はいつも非常に重要な役割を担っている.近年,質量分析法の進歩によって,生体組織における複雑な脂質分子種の同定が可能になり,心筋梗塞マーカーの探索に用いられている.リピドミクスは,心血管イベントの根底にある複雑な病態の解明や治療法の開発に貢献することが期待されている.この総説では,リピドミクスによって明らかになった心筋梗塞や関連疾患のバイオマーカーに焦点をあてる.(著者抄録)

  カルジオリピンはミトコンドリア内膜に局在するユニークなリン脂質であり、エネルギー代謝をはじめとする様々なミトコンドリア機能に重要な役割を果たしている。近年、質量分析によるカルジオリピンの分析法が開発され、生物医学的研究へ応用されている。そのことは、カルジオリピンの化学的プロファイル、リモデリング、酸化的変化の理解や、ミトコンドリア機能障害と代謝異常の関係の理解に貢献すると思われる。今後、カルジオリピン分子種のいずれかが健康障害・疾病の潜在的バイオマーカーとして見いだされる可能性もある。この総説では、質量分析により明らかとなったカルジオリピンの化学的プロファイリング、リモデリング、および酸化について焦点をあてる。(著者抄録)

  脂質分子の多様性がもつ意義を解明することは重要である。複雑な生体試料の脂質分子種を正確に分析するためには、信頼できる標準品が必要となる。液体クロマトグラフィー/タンデム質量分析(LC-MS/MS)法の内標準物質には、安定同位元素標識体が最も適している。しかし、標識体は市場からの入手が難しく、その標識純度も定量分析には適さない。そこで我々は、LC-MS/MS法の内標準物質となる重水素標識コレステリルエステル(CE)の化学合成を行った。主要な反応として、(1)2α,3α-epoxy-5α-steroidsのLiAlD4による開環反応、(2)NaBD4を用いた3,6-diketo-5α-steroidsの立体選択的な(3α,6α-D2)-3β,6β-diolへの還元、(3)6β-hydroxy-5α-steroidにPOCl3を反応させることによる5位からの脱水、および1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimideを触媒とした重水素標識コレステロールと脂肪酸のエステル化反応があげられる。合成した標識体を用いてCEのLC-MS/MS定量法を確立した。本法は様々な臨床研究に対し、高感度・高選択的なCE定量法として貢献することが期待される。(著者抄録)
• 抗酸化物質の概念の変化と新しい抗酸化食品開発戦略

  布田 博敏, 岡部 浩昭, 惠 淑萍, 千葉 仁志 JSBMS Letters 41 (1) 7 -13 2016年03月 [査読無し][通常論文]
   

  酸素は生物にとって欠くことができず、絶えず活性酸素種(ROS)の生成が行われている。高度に分化し、かつ統合された一連の抗酸化酵素群がROSから細胞を保護しているが、年齢とともに低下することが報告されている、そのために食品中の抗酸化物質を取ることが健康維持のために有意義と考えられている。Dinkonva-Kostova、Talalayらが抗酸化物質をdirect antioxidantとindirect antioxidantの2つに分類して以来、抗酸化、抗酸化物質の概念は大きく変わり始めた。彼らはdirect antioxidantを「ROSに直接反応して、不活化する物質」、indirect antioxidantを「Keap1-Nrf2経路を活性化し、一連の抗酸化酵素群を発現することにより生体内のROSや異物を不活化・代謝する物質」と定義した。本稿では抗酸化物質の概念の変化について解説し、我々が考える新しい抗酸化食品開発戦略についても述べる。具体的な開発事例として、我々がマガキ抽出液から見いだした新規抗酸化物質の研究を紹介する。質量分析は抗酸化物質の探索、同定、定量分析において重要な役割を果たしている。(著者抄録)

  過酸化脂質(脂質ヒドロペルオキシド)の測定法には、チオバルビタール酸(TBA)法、ヘモグロビン-メチレンブルー法、FOX2法、共役ジエン法、カーボンナノチューブセンサー法、高速液体クロマトグラフィー化学発光法、高速液体クロマトグラフィー質量分析法(LC-MS法)などがある。このうちTBA法は脂質ヒドロペルオキシドよりもアルデヒド類の貢献が大きい。LC-MS法は分子種が同定でき、感度も優れており、SRMスキャンモードの使用により試料中の夾雑ピークの影響を避けることが可能であることから、今後の発展が期待される。(著者抄録)

  不安定で多様な構造を持つ過酸化脂質測定では、標品と内部標準物質(IS)の有機合成のステップを踏むことが唯一の確かな道である。我々はコレステリルエステル、トリグリセリド、リン脂質、遊離脂肪酸の各脂質種について、光増感反応により過酸化脂質(脂質ヒドロペルオキシド)の標品を化学合成した。コレステリルエステルヒドロペルオキシド(CE-OOH)およびトリグリセリドヒドロペルオキシド(TG-OOH)の同時分析のためのISとして、リトコール酸ミリスチルアルコールエステルをオレイン酸エステルへと導き、光増感反応によりヒドロキシペルオキシドとした。これらを用いて、CE-OOHとTG-OOHの同時測定化学発光HPLC法を確立した。肝疾患患者ではCE-OOHとTG-OOHが著しく増加していた。過酸化リン脂質(PC-OOH)についても、標品と合成ISを用いる化学発光HPLC測定法を開発し、健常者の血漿濃度を決定した。また、PC-OOHの液体クロマトグラフ質量分析法(内部標準法)による定量も開発した。本論文では、我々の研究成果を中心に過酸化脂質分析法について概説するとともに、過酸化脂質測定の臨床的意義に関する研究を紹介する。(著者抄録)

  酵素サイクリングを組み合わせた測定系を応用してBile Salt Export Pump(BSEP)輸送活性測定の開発を行い、LC/MS法による輸送活性測定との相関を検討した。化学発光測定法を用いてATP依存輸送活性値におけるタウロコール酸(T-CA)の濃度依存性について検討し、ATP依存輸送活性値は基質濃度依存的に上昇するとともに飽和性を示した。T-CAに対する速度論的パラメーターは化学発光測定法及びLC/MS法の両測定法でほぼ同様な結果を示し、化学発光測定がhBSEP vesiclesによる胆汁酸輸送活性測定に適用可能であることが判明した。

  血中クルクミノイドのUV検出高速液体クロマトグラフィー(HPLC)による分離定量法を確立し、ヒトでのクルクミノイドの血中濃度推移と血中の抱合様式を検討した。ターメリック粉3g(クルクミノイド60〜90mg含有)を服用した健常成人7例と市販ウコン錠(90%精製クルクミノイド480mg含有)を服用した健常成人7例を対象とした。ターメリック粉群では服用1時間後に最大血中濃度が142.9±63.7nmol/lに達した。ウコン錠群では服用8時間に最大血中濃度が26.9±17.7nmol/lとなり、クルクミノイドの精製度が消化管吸収速度に影響する可能性が示唆された。非還元型クルクミノイドは大部分がグルグロン酸抱合体かグルクロン酸と硫酸の二重抱合型として存在し、一部が遊離型として存在することが推測された。HPLC法は、ウコン食品の薬理学的研究に有用なツールとなることが示唆された。

  健常ヒトを対象とした無作為クロスオーバー試験によって、クルクミン濃縮製剤とターメリックの乾燥粉末とで、抗酸化能とクルクミンのバイオアベイラビリティの違いがあるか検討した。ヒト血漿やサンプルの抗酸化能測定は、PAO値を用い、製剤摂取後の血漿PAO値とクルクミンの動態の変化を、2種類の製剤間で比較した。試験管実験では、ターメリックの粉に比べ濃縮クルクミンの方が高い抗酸化能を示した。経口投与では、ターメリック投与群は投与後2〜8時間にわいて対照群より高い血中抗酸化能の傾向を示した。ターメリックの粉の方が、クルクミン濃縮製剤より、バイオアベイラビリティが高く、そのため抗酸化能も高くなることが示された。ターメリック中のクルクミン以外の成分が、腸管内でのクルクミンの吸収や代謝に影響を及ぼすことが示唆された。

  モノヒドロキシ胆汁酸 (3α-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid 及び 3β-hydroxy-5-cholen-24-oic acid) は胆汁うっ滞を誘起する原因物質の一つであり,これらの新規生成経路の存在が推測されている.また,胆汁酸生合成機構の一つとして,25 位水酸化による側鎖切断反応が知られている.上記胆汁酸の生成機構と本経路の関連を検討することを目的として,生合成中間体と推測される各種胆汁アルコール,ヒドロキシコレステロール及び上記胆汁酸の GC/MS による一斉分析法の開発を行った.各種中間体標品をトリメチルシリルエーテル誘導体とした後,高分解能選択イオンモニタリング (SIM) 法により分析を行った.得られた検量線はいずれも 10〜250 pmol の範囲で良好な直線性を示した.検出限界は 50〜100 fmol であった.逆相系固相抽出法を用いる前処理のみで生体由来の妨害ピークは認められなかった.本分析法は各種生体試料中の上記中間体及び胆汁酸の分析法として適用可能であることが明らかとなった.

  CETP完全欠損患者の血清HDLは脂質組成の変化を伴うため,一部のLDLコレステロール自動測定試薬ではHDLコレステロールを部分的にLDLコレステロールとして回収する結果,正誤差を生じることが明らかとなった.脂質代謝に影響し得る様々な病態に日常的に遭遇する臨床の場では,リポ蛋白の質的変化に対して一定の安定性を有する試薬の使用が望ましく,その意味で市販試薬にも更に改良が必要と思われた
• Determination of regioisomeric hydroperoxides of fatty acid cholesterol esters produced by photosensitized peroxidation using HPLC

  Shu-Ping Hui, Teruki Yoshimura, Tsuyoshi Murai, Hitoshi Chiba, Takao Kurosawa Analytical Sciences 16 (10) 1023 -1028 2000年 [査読無し][通常論文]
   

  In order to examine the process of the lipid oxidation, the regioisomers of hydroperoxides produced by the photosensitized peroxidation of cholesteryl oleate, cholesteryl linoleate and cholesteryl linolenate by photosensitized peroxidation and the separation of each isomer by HPLC were investigated. The olefinic parts in fatty acid chains of the above cholesteryl esters received hydroperoxidation predominantly by photosensitized oxidation. Cholesteryl oleate was subjected to hydroperoxidation at the 9 and 10 position of the oleic acid chain. Cholesteryl linoleate and cholesteryl linolenate were also subjected to hydroperoxidation at the 9, 10, 12 and 13 positions of the linoleic acid chain and at the 9, 10, 12, 13, 15 and 16 positions of the linolenic acid chain, respectively. Hydroperoxidation on the cholesteryl ring was also observed, however, their formation was negligibly small compared with hydroperoxidation of the fatty acid chain. The elution order of isomeric peroxides in HPLC was determined using a normal-phase column (Mightysil 60) eluted with hexane/2-propanol by the detected wavelength at 210 and 233 nm.
• Significance of membrane glycoproteins in platelet interaction with oxidized low-density lipoprotein

  Y Takahashi, H Fuda, H Yanai, H Akita, SP Hui, H Chiba, K Matsuno SEMINARS IN THROMBOSIS AND HEMOSTASIS 24 (3) 251 -253 1998年 [査読無し][通常論文]
   

  The significance of three platelet membrane glycoproteins, (CD62p, CD63, and CD36) was studied in platelet interaction with native and copper-oxidized plasma low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Native LDL acquired platelet-activating ability only after oxidation, Flow-cytometric studies showed that CD62P and CD63 were rapidly expressed on platelets at a low concentration of oxidized LDL, indicating that they are more sensitive markers than platelet aggregation for detection of platelet activation by oxidized LDL. CD36 was found to be contributing to the binding and activation of platelets with oxidized LDL, but not to the binding of platelets with native LDL. Although the presence of oxidized LDL in plasma is known, its effect on platelet function remains to be studied.

  乳牛から採取した卵子について、多変量統計分析と組み合わせた高速液体クロマトグラフィー-高分解能タンデム質量分析によってリピドミクスプロファイリングを行った。すなわち、体外受精後の発生能が高いと考えられる卵子と変性過程にあり発生能が低下していると考えられる卵子について、リン脂質およびトリアシルグリセロールの増減を比較した。その結果、発生能の低い卵子において、特定のリン脂質種が減少するとともにトリアシルグリセロールの増加が認められ、卵子発生能を評価するうえで重要なマーカーになる可能性が示された。特に、発生能の低い卵子では、発生能の高い卵子に比べて、総トリアシルグリセロールは1.8倍となり、ミトコンドリア特異的リン脂質であるカルジオリピンは43.5％にまで低下していた。これは、発生能の低い卵子におけるエネルギー代謝能の低下を示していると考えられた。さらに、発生能の低い卵子では、トリアシルグリセロールを構成する脂肪酸は不飽和のものが多く含まれたおり、一方、遊離脂肪酸では、不飽和脂肪酸が少なかった。さらに、発生能の低い卵子は発生能の高い卵子に比較して、総ホスファチジルイノシトール（14.8±7.6 pmol vs 24.8±5.5 pmol、P <0.001）、総ホスファチジルコリン（20.8±8.7 pmol vs 33.5±7.2 pmol、P <0.001）および総プラズマローゲンエタノールアミン（9.0±4.7 pmol vs16.8±5.2 pmol、P <0.001）の減少が認められた。これは、発生能の低い卵子における脂質代謝酵素の機能不全を示していると考えられた。

  糖尿病性腎症は、先進国における末期腎臓病の主な原因であり、活性酸素種（ＲＯＳ）が極めて重要な役割を果たすことが知られている。本研究課題は、糖尿病性腎症を、近位尿細管細胞への脂肪酸流入とコレステリルエステル（ＣＥ）蓄積を発端に始まり、ミトコンドリアを巻き込んで進行する酸化的悪性サイクルとして理解し、それを制御する手段を提案することを目的とする。 ２０１９年度はまず、化学合成により得られた８種類ＣＥ標準物質およびそれぞれ８種類の重水素標識ＣＥの内部標準物質を用いて、液体クロマトグラフィー質量分析定量法（ＬＣ／ＭＳ）を確立した。また、ヒト腎近位尿細管上皮細胞由来であるＨＫ－２細胞に脂肪酸添加を行い、オレイン酸（ＦＡ１８：１），リノール酸（ＦＡ１８：２），アラキドン酸（ＦＡ２０：４），エイコサペンタエン酸（ＦＡ２０：５），およびドコサヘキサエン酸（ＦＡ２２：６）添加群において脂肪滴の形成を確認した。しかし，パルミチン酸（ＦＡ１６：０）添加群では脂肪滴は確認されなかった。なお、脂肪酸の添加による脂肪滴形成時のＣＥをＬＣ／ＭＳ定量法により分析した。同様に不飽和脂肪酸添加群においてＣＥの有意な増加が確認された。 さらに、ＣＥ代謝酵素とトリグリセリド（TG）の合成系酵素を評価した。HK-2細胞（健常成人腎臓由来の近位尿細管上皮細胞株）への脂肪酸の過剰流入により、Sterol regulatory element-binding proteinの発現が低下した。HK-2細胞への脂肪酸負荷により、Diacylglycerol acyltransferaseおよびAdipose triglyceride lipaseの変化はなかった。

  It was established that an effective and rapid detection method based on the odor fingerprint of frying oil for a real-time detection and monitoring of frying oil quality. The potential toxicities of frying oils' polar substances and oxidative products (hydroperoxides) to cells in vivo were investigated. The major primary oxidative products of the linoleic acid, 9 and 13-Hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9 and 13-HPODE), were synthesized using soybean lipoxygenase I-B. The 9 and 13-HPODE were also subjected to HepG 2 cells to evaluate its possible adverse effects (cell viability, changes in the enzyme expression, lipidomic analysis) . The research results of 2019 are summarized as follows: 1.The synthesized hydroperoxides have been identified by the Mass spectroscopy and NMR. Results showed that the purity of the synthesized 13-HPODE was around 95% and the yield rate was 70% above which implies the method is successful and was feasible for preparing 9 and 13-HPODE in a regular laboratory. 2.In the cells’ experiments, there were two parallel experiments carried out: one is for the PAHs and another is for the HPODEs using target cell line- HepG 2 cells. Results showed that the mRNA expression of GSTO1, SOD2, and HO-1 have increased when the cells were treated with high HPODEs concentration (100 uM), while the GPX mRNA expression was inhibited after the treatment. Results also indicated that the expression level of CYP1A1 mRNA has been significantly increased after the cells treated with high concentration of HPODEs.

  代表者 : 惠 淑萍, 黒澤 隆夫, 千葉 仁志

   

  メタボリックシンドロームの発症に全身的酸化ストレスの増加が関与することが明らかとなった。しかし、過酸化脂質を臨床レベルで測定する方法がないためその詳細は不明である。メタボリックシンドロームの病態理解のためには、血液と脂肪組織そして全身臓器を結ぶ過酸化脂質動態を、リポ蛋白代謝との関連において明らかにする必要があり、その目的に適した過酸化脂質測定法としてイムノアッセイの開発が必要である。本課題では、過酸化脂質を簡便に測定できるイムノアッセイを開発し、臨床検査薬としての実用化を目指す。平成22年度では、イムノアッセイのターゲットとするコレステリルエステルヒドロペルオキシド、トリグリセリドヒドロペルオキシド、ホスファチジルコリンヒドロペルオキシド、遊離脂肪酸ヒドロペルオキシドをそれぞれ3種類ずつ必要量に応じて合成した。また、これらの構造を核磁気共鳴質量分析装置と液体クロマトグラフィー/質量分析法により確認することができた。質量分析法によるホスファチジルコリンヒドロペルオキシドの定量を世界に先駆けて確立し、国際誌に投稿し査読者から高く評価するコメントを得た(J Chromatography B,2010.878:1677-1682)。トリグリセリドヒドロペルオキシドに関するLC/MS内部標準法の開発も初めて成功した。更にターゲットの一種であるリン脂質ヒドロペルオキシドのハプテンをデザイ...
