Metabolomic changes during active immunization with anti-METH vaccines.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A targeted metabolomics analysis was performed on serum samples from rats immunized with a methamphetamine-like hapten covalently bound to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) monomers, and controls. The subjects were approximately 300 g adult male Sprague Dawley rats. RTI International RCMRC received pre-immune serum from RI 11-03A (n=12) which is a matched control serum that was collected before starting immunizations, and week 17 bleeds from RI 11-03A (n=12), RI 11-03B (n=8), and RI 11-03C (n=12). The A-C nomenclature denotes A) complete antigen with adjuvant, B) complete antigen without adjuvant and C) only KLH carrier protein and adjuvant without a METH-like hapten. The rats’ serum samples were extracted and prepared for a combined flow injection (FIA) and LC-MS/MS assay (Biocrates AbsoluteIDQ® p180 kit). The Biocrates AbsoluteIDQ® p180 kit (Biocrates Life Sciences AG, Innsbruck, Austria) can quantitatively measure ~188 biologically relevant metabolites from five analyte groups (acylcarnitines, amino acids, biogenic amines, glycerophospho- and sphingolipids, and hexoses) on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer.
