Targeted LC-MS/MS-based metabolomics and lipidomics on limited hematopoietic stem cell numbers.

ABSTRACT: Metabolism is important for the regulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and drives cellular fate. Due to the scarcity of HSCs, it has been technically challenging to perform metabolome analyses gaining insight into HSC metabolic regulatory networks. Here, we present two targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry approaches that enable the detection of metabolites after fluorescence-activated cell sorting when sample amounts are limited. One protocol covers signaling lipids and retinoids, while the second detects tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolites and amino acids. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Schönberger et al. (2022).

Project description:BackgroundNonpuerperal mastitis (NPM) is a disease that presents with redness, swelling, heat, and pain during nonlactation and can often be confused with breast cancer. The etiology of NPM remains elusive; however, emerging clinical evidence suggests a potential involvement of lipid metabolism.MethodLiquid chromatography‒mass spectrometry (LC/MS)-based untargeted lipidomics analysis combined with multivariate statistics was performed to investigate the NPM lipid change in breast tissue. Twenty patients with NPM and 10 controls were enrolled in this study.ResultsThe results revealed significant differences in lipidomics profiles, and a total of 16 subclasses with 14,012 different lipids were identified in positive and negative ion modes. Among these lipids, triglycerides (TGs), phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) and cardiolipins (CLs) were the top three lipid components between the NPM and control groups. Subsequently, a total of 35 lipids were subjected to screening as potential biomarkers, and the chosen lipid biomarkers exhibited enhanced discriminatory capability between the two groups. Furthermore, pathway analysis elucidated that the aforementioned alterations in lipids were primarily associated with the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway. The correlation between distinct lipid populations and clinical phenotypes was assessed through weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA).ConclusionsThis study demonstrates that untargeted lipidomics assays conducted on breast tissue samples from patients with NPM exhibit noteworthy alterations in lipidomes. The findings of this study highlight the substantial involvement of arachidonic acid metabolism in lipid metabolism within the context of NPM. Consequently, this study offers valuable insights that can contribute to a more comprehensive comprehension of NPM in subsequent investigations.Trial registrationShuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Number: 2019-702-57; Date: July 2019).
