In cold human blood, the anomalous dynamics of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) result in the progressive accumulation of adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), inosine monophosphate (IMP), inosine, and hypoxanthine. While the ATP, ADP, AMP, and IMP are confined to red blood cells (RBCs), inosine and hypoxanthine are excreted into plasma/serum. The plasma/serum levels of inosine and hypoxanthine depend on the temperature of blood and the plasma/serum contact time with the RBCs, and hence they represent robust biomarkers for evaluating the preanalytical quality of plasma/serum. These biomarkers are highly specific since they are generally absent or at very low levels in fresh plasma/serum and are highly sensitive since they are derived from ATP, one of the most abundant metabolites in blood. Further, whether blood was kept at room temperature or on ice could be predicted based on inosine levels. An analysis of >2000 plasma/serum samples processed for metabolomics-centric analyses showed alarmingly high levels of inosine and hypoxanthine. The results highlight the gravity of sample quality challenges with high risk of grossly inaccurate measurements and incorrect study outcomes. The discovery of these robust biomarkers provides new ways to address the longstanding and underappreciated preanalytical sample quality challenges in the blood metabolomics field. |
