Title
Validated comprehensive metabolomics and lipidomics analysis of colon tissue and cell lines
Author
Abstract
Current untargeted approaches for metabolic fingerprinting of colon tissue and cell lines lack validation of reproducibility and/or focus on a selection of metabolites as opposed to the entire metabolome. Yet, both are critical to ensure reliable results and pursue a fully holistic analysis. Therefore, we have optimized and validated a platform for analyzing the polar metabolome and lipidome of colon-derived cell and tissue samples based on a consecutive extraction of polar and apolar components. Peak areas of selected targeted analytes and the number of untargeted components were assessed. Analysis was performed using ultra-high performance liquid-chromatography (UHPLC) coupled to hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). This resulted in an optimized extraction protocol using 50% methanol/ultrapure water to obtain the polar fraction followed by a dichloromethane-based lipid extraction. Using this comprehensive approach, we have detected more than 15,000 components with CV < 30% in internal quality control (IQC) samples and were able to discriminate the non-transformed (NT) and transformed (T) state in human colon tissue and cell lines based on validated OPLS-DA models (R2Y > 0.719 and Q2 > 0.674). To conclude, our validated polar metabolomics and lipidomics fingerprinting approach could be of great value to reveal gastrointestinal disease-associated biomarkers and mechanisms.
