Combining DI-ESI-MS and NMR datasets for metabolic profiling.

ABSTRACT: Metabolomics datasets are commonly acquired by either mass spectrometry (MS) or nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), despite their fundamental complementarity. In fact, combining MS and NMR datasets greatly improves the coverage of the metabolome and enhances the accuracy of metabolite identification, providing a detailed and high-throughput analysis of metabolic changes due to disease, drug treatment, or a variety of other environmental stimuli. Ideally, a single metabolomics sample would be simultaneously used for both MS and NMR analyses, minimizing the potential for variability between the two datasets. This necessitates the optimization of sample preparation, data collection and data handling protocols to effectively integrate direct-infusion MS data with one-dimensional (1D) (1)H NMR spectra. To achieve this goal, we report for the first time the optimization of (i) metabolomics sample preparation for dual analysis by NMR and MS, (ii) high throughput, positive-ion direct infusion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DI-ESI-MS) for the analysis of complex metabolite mixtures, and (iii) data handling protocols to simultaneously analyze DI-ESI-MS and 1D (1)H NMR spectral data using multiblock bilinear factorizations, namely multiblock principal component analysis (MB-PCA) and multiblock partial least squares (MB-PLS). Finally, we demonstrate the combined use of backscaled loadings, accurate mass measurements and tandem MS experiments to identify metabolites significantly contributing to class separation in MB-PLS-DA scores. We show that integration of NMR and DI-ESI-MS datasets yields a substantial improvement in the analysis of neurotoxin involvement in dopaminergic cell death.

Project description:BackgroundPiperaquine, 1,3-bis-[4-(7-chloroquinolyl-4)-piperazinyl-1]-propane, is an anti-malarial compound belonging to the 4-aminoquinolines, which has received renewed interest in treatment of drug resistant falciparum malaria in artemisinin-based combination therapy with dihydroartemisinin. The impurity profile of this drug product is paid an ever-increasing attention. However, there were few published studies of the complete characterization of related products or impurities in piperaquine phosphate bulk and forced degradation samples.MethodsThe impurities in piperaquine phosphate bulk drug substance were detected by a newly developed gradient phase HPLC method and identified by TOF-MS and ESI-MS. The structures of impurities were confirmed by NMR. Forced degradation studies were also performed for the stability of piperaquine phosphate bulk drug samples and the specificity of the newly developed HPLC method. In silico toxicological predictions for these piperaquine phosphate related impurities were made by Toxtree® and Derek®.ResultsTwelve impurities (imp-1-12) were detected and identified, of which eight impurities (imp-1, 2, 4, 6-10) were first proposed as new related substances. Based on TOF-MS/ESI-MS and NMR analysis, the structures of imp-2, 6 and 12 were characterized by their synthesis and preparation. The possible mechanisms for the formation of impurities were also discussed. These piperaquine phosphate related impurities were predicted to have a toxicity risk by Toxtree® and Derek®.ConclusionsFrom forced degradation and bulk samples of piperaquine phosphate, twelve compounds were detected and identified to be piperaquine phosphate related impurities. Two of the new piperaquine phosphate related substances, imp-2 and imp-6, were identified and characterized as 4-hydroxy-7-chloro-quinoline and a piperaquine oxygenate with a piperazine ring of nitrogen oxide in bulk drug and oxidation sample, respectively. The MS data of imp-1, 2, 4, 6-10 were first reported. The in-silico toxicological prediction showed a toxicity risk for piperaquine related impurities by Toxtree® and Derek®.

Project description:The genus Leontopodium, mainly distributed in Central and Eastern Asia, consists of ca. 34-58 different species. The European Leontopodium alpinum, commonly known as Edelweiss, has a long tradition in folk medicine. Recent research has resulted in the identification of prior unknown secondary metabolites, some of them with interesting biological activities. Despite this, nearly nothing is known about the Asian species of the genus. In this study, we applied proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopy and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolic fingerprinting to reveal insights into the metabolic patterns of 11 different Leontopodium species, and to conclude on their taxonomic relationship. Principal component analysis (PCA) of ¹H NMR fingerprints revealed two species groups. Discriminators for these groups were identified as fatty acids and sucrose for group A, and ent-kaurenoic acid and derivatives thereof for group B. Five diterpenes together with one sesquiterpene were isolated from Leontopodium franchetii roots; the compounds were described for the first time for L. franchetii: ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid, methyl-15?-angeloyloxy-ent-kaur-16-en-19-oate, methyl-ent-kaur-16-en-19-oate, 8-acetoxymodhephene, 19-acetoxy-ent-kaur-16-ene, methyl-15?-angeloyloxy-16,17-epoxy-ent-kauran-19-oate. In addition, differences in the metabolic profile between collected and cultivated species could be observed using a partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). PCA of the LC-MS fingerprints revealed three groups. Discriminating signals were compared to literature data and identified as two bisabolane derivatives responsible for discrimination of group A and C, and one ent-kaurenoic acid derivative, discriminating group B. A taxonomic relationship between a previously unidentified species and L. franchetii and Leontopodium sinense could be determined by comparing NMR fingerprints. This finding supports recent molecular data. Furthermore, Leontopodium dedekensii and L. sinense, two closely related species in terms of morphology and DNA-fingerprints, could be distinguished clearly using ¹H NMR and LC-MS metabolic fingerprinting.

Project description:The commercial use of Panax ginseng berries is increasing as P. ginseng berries are known to contain large amounts of ginsenosides, and many pharmacological activities have been reported for the various ginsenosides. For the proper use of P.ginseng berries, it is necessary to study efficient and accurate quality control and the profiling of the overall composition of each cultivar. Ginseng berry samples from seven cultivars (Eumseung, Chung-buk Province, Republic of Korea) were analyzed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS) for profiling of the ginsenosides, and high-resolution magic-angle-spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (HR-MAS NMR) spectroscopy for profiling of the primary metabolites. Comparing twenty-six ginsenoside profiles between the variant representatives and between the violet-stem variant, Kumpoong and Sunwon were classified. In the case of primary metabolites, the cultivars Kumpoong and Gopoong were classified. As a result of correlation analyses of the primary and secondary metabolites, in the Gopoong cultivar, the metabolism was found to lean toward energy metabolism rather than ginsenoside synthesis, and accumulation of osmolytes was low. The Gopoong cultivar had higher levels of most of the amino acids, such as arginine, phenylalanine, isoleucine, threonine, and valine, and it contained the highest level of choline and the lowest level of myo-inositol. Except for these, there were no significant differences of primary metabolites. In the Kumpoong cultivar, the protopanaxatriol (PPT)-type ginsenosides, ginsenoside Re and ginsenoside Rg2, were much lower than in the other cultivars, while the other PPT-type ginsenosides were inversely found in much higher amounts than in other cultivars. The Sunwon cultivar showed that variations of PPT-type ginsenosides were significantly different between samples. However, the median values of PPT-type ginsenosides of Sunwon showed similar levels to those of Kumpoong. The difference in primary metabolites used for metabolism for survival was found to be small in our results. Our data demonstrated the characteristics of each cultivar using profiling data of the primary and secondary metabolites, especially for Gopoong, Kumpoong, and Sunwon. These profiling data provided important information for further research and commercial use.
