Dynamic binning peak detection and assessment of various lipidomics liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry pre-processing platforms

ABSTRACT: Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) based lipidomics generate a large dataset, which requires high-performance data pre-processing tools for their interpretation such as XCMS, mzMine and Progenesis. These pre-processing tools rely heavily on accurate peak detection, which depends on setting the peak detection mass tolerance (PDMT) properly. The PDMT is usually set with a fixed value in either ppm or Da units. However, this fixed value may result in duplicates or missed peak detection. Therefore, we developed the dynamic binning method for accurate peak detection, which takes into account the peak broadening described by well-known physics laws of ion separation and set dynamically the value of PDMT as a function of m/z. Namely, in our method, the PDMT is proportional to for FTICR, to for Orbitrap, to m/z for Q-TOF and is a constant for Quadrupole mass analyzer, respectively. The dynamic binning method was implemented in XCMS. Our further goal was to compare the performance of different lipidomics pre-processing tools to find differential compounds. We have generated set samples with 43 lipids internal standards differentially spiked to aliquots of one human plasma lipid sample using Orbitrap LC-MS/MS. The performance of the various pipelines using aligned parameter sets was quantified by a quality score system which reflects the ability of a pre-processing pipeline to detect differential peaks spiked at various concentration levels. The quality score indicates that the dynamic binning method improves the performance of XCMS (maximum p-value 9.8·10-3 of two-sample Wilcoxon test). The modified XCMS software was further compared with mzMine and Progenesis. The results showed that modified XCMS and Progenesis had a similarly good performance in the aspect of finding differential compounds. In addition, Progenesis shows lower variability as indicated by lower CVs, followed by XCMS and mzMine. The lower variability of Progenesis improve the quantification, however, provide an incorrect quantification abundance order of spiked-in internal standards.

Project description:Data analysis represents a key challenge for untargeted metabolomics studies and it commonly requires extensive processing of more than thousands of metabolite peaks included in raw high-resolution MS data. Although a number of software packages have been developed to facilitate untargeted data processing, they have not been comprehensively scrutinized in the capability of feature detection, quantification and marker selection using a well-defined benchmark sample set. In this study, we acquired a benchmark dataset from standard mixtures consisting of 1100 compounds with specified concentration ratios including 130 compounds with significant variation of concentrations. Five software evaluated here (MS-Dial, MZmine 2, XCMS, MarkerView, and Compound Discoverer) showed similar performance in detection of true features derived from compounds in the mixtures. However, significant differences between untargeted metabolomics software were observed in relative quantification of true features in the benchmark dataset. MZmine 2 outperformed the other software in terms of quantification accuracy and it reported the most true discriminating markers together with the fewest false markers. Further-more, we assessed selection of discriminating markers by different software using both the benchmark dataset and a real-case metabolomics dataset to propose combined usage of two software for increasing confidence of biomarker identification. Our findings from comprehensive evaluation of untargeted metabolomics software would help guide future improvements of these widely used bioinformatics tools and enable users to properly interpret their metabolomics results. Thermo Q Exactive HF assay protocols and data are reported in the current study MTBLS733.

Project description:The goals of the study were to assess array platform performance and analysis algorithm performance. The most widely used method for detecting genome-wide protein-DNA interactions is chromatin immunoprecipitation on tiling microarrays, commonly known as ChIP-chip. Here, we conducted the first objective analysis of tiling array platforms, amplification procedures, and signal detection algorithms in a simulated ChIP-chip experiment. Mixtures of human genomic DNA and "spike-ins" comprised of nearly 100 human sequences at various concentrations were hybridized to four tiling array platforms by eight independent groups. Blind to the number of spike-ins, their locations, and the range of concentrations, each group made predictions of the spike-in locations. We found that microarray platform choice is not the primary determinant of overall performance. In fact, variation in performance between labs, protocols and algorithms within the same array platform was greater than the variation in performance between array platforms. However, each array platform had unique performance characteristics that varied with tiling resolution and the number of replicates, which have implications for cost versus detection power. Long oligonucleotide arrays were slightly more sensitive at detecting very low enrichment. On all platforms, simple sequence repeats and genome redundancy tended to result in false positives. LM-PCR and WGA, the most popular sample amplification techniques, reproduced relative enrichment levels with high fidelity. Performance among signal detection algorithms was heavily dependent on array platform. The spike-in DNA samples and the data presented here provide a stable benchmark against which future ChIP platforms, protocol improvements, and analysis methods can be evaluated.
