Title Separation and quantification of 2-acyl-1-lysophospholipids and 1-acyl-2-lysophospholipids in biological samples by LC-MS/MS
Description Lysophospholipids (LysoGPs) serve as lipid mediators and precursors for synthesis of diacyl phospholipids(GPs ). LysoGPs detected in cells have various acyl chains attached at either the sn-1 or sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone. In general, acyl chains at the sn-2 position of 2-acyl-1-LysoGPs readily move to the sn-1 position, generating 1-acyl-2-lyso isomers by a nonenzymatic reaction called intra-molecular acyl migration, which has hampered the detection of 2-acyl-1-LysoGPs in biological samples. In this study, we developed a simple and versatile method to separate and quantify 2-acyl-1- and 1-acyl-2-LysoGPs. The main point of the method was to extract LysoGPs at pH 4 and 4°C, conditions that were found to completely eliminate the intra-molecular acyl migration. Under the present conditions, the relative amounts of 2-acyl-1-LysoGPs and 1-acyl-2-LysoGPs did not change at least for 1 week. Further, in LysoGPs extracted from cells and tissues under the present conditions, most of the saturated fatty acids (16:0 and 18:0) were found in the sn-1 position of LysoGPs, while most of the PUFAs (18:2, 20:4, 22:6) were found in the sn-2 position. Thus the method can be used to elucidate the in vivo role of 2-acyl-1-LysoGPs.

Preparation HEK293 cells were maintained in DMEM (Nissui Pharma­ceutical) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), 100 U/ml penicillin (Sigma-Aldrich), and 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Gibco) at 37°C in the presence of 5% CO2 gas.


HEK293 cells (1.0 × 105 cells) were incubated with recombinant PS-PLA1 in 100 μl Opti-MEM in the presence or absence of 0.1% BSA at 37°C for 1 h. The cultures were centrifuged at 1,000 g for 3 min. The supernatants and cell pellets were deproteinized with 160 μl and 200 μl acidic methanol (pH 4.0), respectively, homogenized for 3 min in an ultrasonic bath, and centrifuged at 21,500 g for 10 min at 4°C (ice-cold water). The supernatants were filtered and 20 μl of the filtrate was subjected to LC-MS/MS.
