Popis: Abstract Mass spectrometry-based lipidomics approaches offer valuable tools for the detection and quantification of various lipid species, including sphingolipids. The present study aimed to develop a new method to simultaneously detect various sphingolipid species that applies to diverse biological samples. We developed and validated a measurement system by employing a single-column liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry system utilizing a normal-phase separation mode with positive ionization. The measurement system provided precision with a coefficient of variant below 20% for sphingolipids in all types of samples, and we observed good linearity in diluted serum samples. This system can measure the following sphingolipids: sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), sphingosine (Sph), dihydroS1P (dhS1P), dihydroSph (dhSph), ceramide 1-phosphate (Cer1P), hexosylceramide (HexCer), lactosylceramide (LacCer), dh-ceramide, deoxy-ceramide, deoxy-dh-ceramide, and sphingomyelin (SM). By measuring these sphingolipids in cell lysates where S1P lyase expression level was modulated, we could observe significant and dynamic modulations of sphingolipids in a comprehensive manner. Our newly established and validated measurement system can simultaneously measure many kinds of sphingolipids in biological samples. It holds great promise as a valuable tool for laboratory testing applications to detect overall modulations of sphingolipids, which have been proposed to be involved in pathogenesis processes in a series of elegant basic research studies.
