This study describes a coupled analytical method to carry out the systematic profiling of phospholipids (PLs) in high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL) from human blood plasma. HDL and LDL of healthy human plasma samples were separated by size and collected on a semi-preparative scale using multiplexed hollow fiber flow field-flow fractionation (MxHF5). Phospholipid mixtures contained in the resulting HDL and LDL fractions were analyzed by shotgun nanoflow liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-ESI-MS-MS). We utilized a dual scan method for the separation and simultaneous characterization of complicated PL mixtures by nLC-ESI-MS-MS, such that phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) molecules were detected in positive ion mode in a first LC run. In a second LC run, phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and phosphatidic acid (PA) were detected in negative ion mode. In this study, a total of 56 PLs from HDL and 52 PLs from LDL particles were characterized by their molecular structures from data dependent collision-induced dissociation (CID) experiments, and their relative abundances were compared.
本研究描述了一种耦合分析方法,用于对人血浆中的高密度脂蛋白(HDL)和低密度脂蛋白(LDL)中的磷脂(PL)进行系统分析。采用多重中空纤维流场流分离(MxHF5)按大小分离健康人血浆样本中的 HDL 和 LDL,并在半制备规模上收集。使用纳升液相色谱-电喷雾串联质谱(nLC-ESI-MS-MS)分析所得 HDL 和 LDL 级分中含有的磷脂混合物。我们采用双重扫描方法,通过 nLC-ESI-MS-MS 对复杂的 PL 混合物进行分离和同时表征,使得在第一个 LC 运行中以正离子模式检测到磷脂酰胆碱(PC)和磷脂酰乙醇胺(PE)分子。在第二个 LC 运行中,以负离子模式检测到磷脂酰肌醇(PI)、磷脂甘油(PG)和磷脂酸(PA)。在这项研究中,通过数据依赖的碰撞诱导解离(CID)实验,从总共有 56 种来自 HDL 的 PL 和 52 种来自 LDL 颗粒的 PL 的分子结构中进行了特征描述,并比较了它们的相对丰度。
