Liposcale: a novel advanced lipoprotein test based on 2D diffusion-ordered 1H NMR spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Determination of lipoprotein particle size and number using advanced lipoprotein tests (ALTs) is of particular importance to improve cardiovascular risk prediction. Here we present the Liposcale test, a novel ALT based on 2D diffusion-ordered (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Our method uses diffusion coefficients to provide a direct measure of the mean particle sizes and numbers. Using 177 plasma samples from healthy individuals and the concentration of ApoB and ApoA from isolated lipoprotein fractions, our test showed a stronger correlation between the NMR-derived lipoprotein particle numbers and apolipoprotein concentrations than the LipoProfile(®) test commercialized by Liposcience. We also converted LDL particle numbers to ApoB equivalents (milligrams per deciliter) and our test yielded similar values of LDL-ApoB to the LipoProfile(®) test (absolute mean bias of 8.5 and 7.4 mg/dl, respectively). In addition, our HDL particle number values were more concordant with the calibrated values determined recently using ion mobility. Finally, principal component analysis distinguished type 2 diabetic patients with and without atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) on a second cohort of 307 subjects characterized using the Liposcale test (area under the curve = 0.88) and showed concordant relationships between variables explaining AD. Altogether, our method provides reproducible and reliable characterization of lipoprotein particles and it is applicable to pathological states such as AD.

Project description:Diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) can be used to analyze mixtures of compounds since resonances deriving from different compounds are distinguished by their diffusion coefficients (D). Previously, DOSY has mostly been used for organometallic and polymer analysis, we have now applied DOSY to investigate diffusion coefficients of structurally diverse organic compounds such as natural products (NP). The experimental Ds derived from 55 diverse NPs has allowed us to establish a power law relationship between D and molecular weight (MW) and therefore predict MW from experimental D. We have shown that D is also affected by factors such as hydrogen bonding, molar density and molecular shape of the compound and we have generated new models that incorporate experimentally derived variables for these factors so that more accurate predictions of MW can be calculated from experimental D. The recognition that multiple physicochemical properties affect D has allowed us to generate a polynomial equation based on multiple linear regression analysis of eight calculated physicochemical properties from 63 compounds to accurately correlate predicted D with experimental D for any known organic compound. This equation has been used to calculate predicted D for 217 043 compounds present in a publicly available natural product database (DEREP-NP) and to dereplicate known NPs in a mixture based on matching of experimental D and structural features derived from NMR analysis with predicted D and calculated structural features in the database. These models have been validated by the dereplication of a mixture of two known sesquiterpenes obtained from Tasmannia xerophila and the identification of new alkaloids from the bryozoan Amathia lamourouxi. These new methodologies allow the MW of compounds in mixtures to be predicted without the need for MS analysis, the dereplication of known compounds and identification of new compounds based solely on parameters derived by DOSY NMR.

Project description:Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) present increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study is to improve the assessment of lipoprotein profile in patients with T1D by using a robust developed method 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), for further correlation with clinical factors associated to CVD. Thirty patients with T1D and 30 non-diabetes control (CT) subjects, matched for gender, age, body composition (DXA, BMI, waist/hip ratio), regular physical activity levels and cardiorespiratory capacity (VO2peak), were analyzed. Dietary records and routine lipids were assessed. Serum lipoprotein particle subfractions, particle sizes, and cholesterol and triglycerides subfractions were analyzed by 1H NMR. It was evidenced that subjects with T1D presented lower concentrations of small LDL cholesterol, medium VLDL particles, large VLDL triglycerides, and total triglycerides as compared to CT subjects. Women with T1D presented a positive association with HDL size (p<0.005; R = 0.601) and large HDL triglycerides (p<0.005; R = 0.534) and negative (p<0.005; R = -0.586) to small HDL triglycerides. Body fat composition represented an important factor independently of normal BMI, with large LDL particles presenting a positive correlation to total body fat (p<0.005; R = 0.505), and total LDL cholesterol and small LDL cholesterol a positive correlation (p<0.005; R = 0.502 and R = 0.552, respectively) to abdominal fat in T1D subjects; meanwhile, in CT subjects, body fat composition was mainly associated to HDL subclasses. VO2peak was negatively associated (p<0.005; R = -0.520) to large LDL-particles only in the group of patients with T1D. In conclusion, patients with T1D with adequate glycemic control and BMI and without chronic complications presented a more favourable lipoprotein profile as compared to control counterparts. In addition, slight alterations in BMI and/or body fat composition showed to be relevant to provoking alterations in lipoproteins profiles. Finally, body fat composition appears to be a determinant for cardioprotector lipoprotein profile.
