Project description:Melanoma accounts for more than 60% of deaths associated with skin cancer, making its early detection through dermatological screening essential for improved treatment outcomes. Early detection and successful treatment of melanoma can dramatically increase the 5-year survival rate from 14 to 98%. To support such efforts, comprehensive identification of metabolite patterns capable of describing cancer progression will help support the foundational knowledge necessary to build early detection platforms for intervention prior to metastasis. Using an UPLC-MS, as part of a cell-based, untargeted metabolomics approach, we profiled the metabolomes of WM-226-4 and WM-115 cells. Derived from the metastatic and the primary sites of the same individual, these two cell lines represent a paired melanoma cancer cell line. Progenesis and MetaboAnalyst, platforms dedicated to metabolomics data analysis, were used to establish a panel of differentially expressed metabolites across these two stages of melanoma. In addition, mummichog was used to identify the affected pathways. A total of 12 differentially expressed metabolites including amino acids, carnitine, acylcarnitine, and a limited set of lipids were identified. The significantly differing metabolites are components of a diverse set of metabolic pathways (e.g., glycerophospholipid metabolism, carnitine shuttle, tryptophan metabolism), that have biological implications for the survival and dissemination of metastatic melanoma cells.

Project description:Background: Cyanobacteria are ecologically significant prokaryotes that can be found in heavy metals contaminated environments. As their photosynthetic machinery imposes high demands for metals, homeostasis of these micronutrients has been extensively considered in cyanobacteria. Recently, most studies have been focused on different habitats using microalgae leads to a remarkable reduction of an array of organic and inorganic nutrients, but what takes place in the extracellular environment when cells are exposed to external supplementation with heavy metals remains largely unknown. Methods: Here, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) production in strains Nostoc sp. N27P72 and Nostoc sp. FB71 was isolated from different habitats and thenthe results were compared and reported . Result: Cultures of both strains, supplemented separately with either glucose, sucrose, lactose, or maltose showed that production of EPS and cell dry weight were boosted by maltose supplementation. The production of EPS (9.1 ± 0.05 μg/ml) and increase in cell dry weight (1.01 ± 0.06 g/l) were comparatively high in Nostoc sp. N27P72 which was isolated from lime stones.The cultures were evaluated for their ability to remove Cu (II), Cr (III), and Ni (II) in culture media with and without maltose. The crude EPS showed metal adsorption capacity assuming the order Ni (II)> Cu (II)> Cr (III) from the metal-binding experiments .Nickel was preferentially biosorbed with a maximal uptake of 188.8 ± 0.14 mg (g cell dry wt) -1 crude EPS. We found that using maltose as a carbon source can increase the production of EPS, protein, and carbohydrates content and it could be a significant reason for the high ability of metal absorbance. FT-IR spectroscopy revealed that the treatment with Ni can change the functional groups and glycoside linkages in both strains. Results of Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS) were used to determine the biochemical composition of Nostoc sp. N27P72, showed that strong Ni (II) removal capability could be associated with the high silicon containing heterocyclic compound and aromatic diacid compounds content. Conclusion: The results of this studyindicatede that strains Nostoc sp. N27P72 can be a good candidate for the commercial production of EPS and might be utilized in bioremediation field as an alternative to synthetic and abiotic flocculants.

Project description:Pyrraline, one of advanced glycation end-products, is formed in advanced Maillard reactions. It was reported that the presence of pyrraline was tested to be associated with nephropathy and diabetes. Pyrraline might result in potential health risks because many modern diets are heat processed. In the study, an integrated metabolomics by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry was used to evaluate the effects of pyrraline on metabolism in rats. Thirty-two metabolites were identified as differential metabolites. Linolenic acid metabolism, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, arachidonic acid metabolism, tyrosine metabolism and glycerophospholipid metabolism were the main perturbed networks in this pathological process. Differential metabolites and metabolic pathways we found give new insights into studying the toxic molecular mechanisms of pyrraline.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10068-023-01256-7.

Project description:The diagnosis of Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB) requires the demonstration of intrathecal synthesis of Borrelia antibodies in a patient's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which involves the invasive procedure of a lumbar puncture. This study serves as a feasibility study aimed at exploring the potential of using serum samples, which are easily obtainable routine clinical samples, for LNB diagnostics via advanced metabolomics techniques. Serum samples were collected from confirmed LNB patients before and after treatment, with post-treatment samples serving as controls. The objective of the study was to find stable biomarkers for acute LNB through untargeted metabolomics analysis using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). The study focused on biomarkers that could be reliably detected in serum samples stored under typical clinical conditions, without the need for special handling, ensuring consistent detection over time. The analysis revealed 26,978 molecular features (MFs), of which 1,746 were statistically significant (p < 0.001). Further manual investigation into 91 of the most prominent MFs revealed 53 potential biomarkers for LNB, individually or in combination. The workflow developed provides a comprehensive platform for biomarker detection, with potential applications in both research and clinical settings for LNB and other infections. This minimally invasive diagnostic approach is promising, and additional validation and future studies are needed for it to be considered as a practical alternative or a complement to CSF-based diagnostics of LNB in everyday clinical practice.

Project description:Mepiquat (Mep) is a contaminant produced by Maillard reaction with reducing sugar, free lysine and an alkylating agent under typical roasting conditions, particularly in the range of 200-240 °C. It has been reported that exposure to Mep is harmful to rats. However, its metabolic mechanism is still not clear. In this study, untargeted metabolomics was used to reveal the effect of Mep on the metabolic profile of adipose tissue in Sprague-Dawley rats. Twenty-six differential metabolites were screened out. Eight major perturbed metabolic pathways were found, which were linoleic acid metabolism, Phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, Glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, Alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism, and glyoxylate and dicarboxylic acid metabolism. This study lays a solid foundation for clarifying the toxic mechanism of Mep.

Project description:We have previously shown that in Arabidopsis the three enzymes of lower glycolysis namely phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM), enolase and pyruvate kinase form a complex which plays an important role in tethering the mitochondria to the chloroplast. Given that the metabolism of these mutants, the complemented of pgam mutant and overexpression lines of PGAM were unclear, here, we present gas chromatography mass spectrometry-based metabolomics data of them alongside their plant growth phenotypes. Compared with wild type, both sugar and amino acid concentration are significantly altered in phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase and pyruvate kinase. Conversely, overexpression of PGAM could decrease the content of 3PGA, sugar and several amino acids and increase the content of alanine and pyruvate. In addition, the pgam mutant could not be fully complemented by either a nuclear target pgam, a side-directed-mutate of pgam or a the E.coli PGAM in term of plant phenotype or metabolite profiles, suggesting the low glycolysis complete formation is required to support normal metabolism and growth.

Project description:Recent developments in mass spectrometry-based metabolite profiling allow unprecedented qualitative coverage of complex biological extract composition. However, the electrospray ionization used in metabolite profiling generates multiple artifactual signals for a single analyte. This leads to thousands of signals per analysis without satisfactory means of filtering those corresponding to abundant constituents. Generic approaches are therefore needed for the qualitative and quantitative annotation of a broad range of relevant constituents. For this, we used an analytical platform combining liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with Charged Aerosol Detection (CAD). We established a generic metabolite profiling for the concomitant recording of qualitative MS data and semiquantitative CAD profiles. The MS features (recorded in high-resolution tandem MS) are grouped and annotated using state-of-the-art tools. To efficiently attribute features to their corresponding extracted and integrated CAD peaks, a custom signal pretreatment and peak-shape comparison workflow is built. This strategy allows us to automatically contextualize features at both major and minor metabolome levels, together with a detailed reporting of their annotation including relevant orthogonal information (taxonomy, retention time). Signals not attributed to CAD peaks are considered minor metabolites. Results are illustrated on an ethanolic extract of Swertia chirayita (Roxb.) H. Karst., a bitter plant of industrial interest, exhibiting the typical complexity of plant extracts as a proof of concept. This generic qualitative and quantitative approach paves the way to automatically assess the composition of single natural extracts of interest or broader collections, thus facilitating new ingredient registrations or natural-extracts-based drug discovery campaigns.

Project description:A major challenge in systems biology is integration of molecular findings for individual enzyme activities into a cohesive high-level understanding of cellular metabolism and physiology/pathophysiology. However, meaningful prediction for how a perturbed enzyme activity will globally impact metabolism in a cell, tissue or intact organisms is precluded by multiple unknowns, including in vivo enzymatic rates, subcellular distribution and pathway interactions. To address this challenge, metabolomics offers the potential to simultaneously survey changes in thousands of structurally diverse metabolites within complex biological matrices. The present study assessed the capability of untargeted plasma metabolite profiling to discover systemic changes arising from inactivation of xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR), an enzyme that catalyzes the final steps in purine degradation. Using LC-MS coupled with a multivariate statistical data analysis platform, we confidently surveyed >3,700 plasma metabolites (50-1,000 Da) for differential expression in XOR wildtype vs. mice with inactivated XOR, arising from gene deletion or pharmacological inhibition. Results confirmed the predicted derangements in purine metabolism, but also revealed unanticipated perturbations in metabolism of pyrimidines, nicotinamides, tryptophan, phospholipids, Krebs and urea cycles, and revealed kidney dysfunction biomarkers. Histochemical studies confirmed and characterized kidney failure in xor-nullizygous mice. These findings provide new insight into XOR functions and demonstrate the power of untargeted metabolite profiling for systemic discovery of direct and indirect consequences of gene mutations and drug treatments.
