Oxylipidomics
Oxidized lipids are a class of bioactive molecules formed by the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids (such as linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, and eicosatetraenoic acid), including prostaglandins, leukotrienes, lysine ketones, various enols and ketones. Oxylipidomics is an emerging field that studies the composition, distribution, transformation, and function of oxidized lipids in organisms. As crucial factors in cell signaling and disease pathogenesis, changes in oxidized lipids in organisms are essential for understanding the mechanisms of various diseases, such as inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, immune responses, cell growth regulation, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, accurate analysis and assessment of the composition and changes of oxidized lipids are of significant value for disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
The core of oxylipidomics is the identification and quantification of oxidized lipids. Due to the chemical diversity and dynamic nature of oxidized lipids, highly sensitive and precise mass spectrometry methods, especially liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), are required to achieve detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis of the types, structures, and concentrations of oxidized lipids.

OxylipidomicsAnalysisProcess
1. Lipid extraction: Use organic solvents (such as methanol, chloroform, etc.) to extract lipids from samples.
2. Chromatographic separation: Choose liquid chromatography (LC) or gas chromatography (GC) based on the physical properties of the lipid extracts for separation.
3. Mass spectrometry analysis: Introduce the chromatographically separated lipids into a mass spectrometer for ionization (such as electrospray ionization ESI), time-of-flight measurement, and mass analysis (such as time-of-flight mass spectrometry TOF, quadrupole mass spectrometry, etc.) detection.
4. Data processing and analysis: Use software to process and analyze mass spectrometry data, compare mass spectrometry data with known databases, and identify and quantify lipids.
