Abstract/OtherAbstract:
When fed a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet (HFD), homozygous LDL receptor knockout mice exhibit extremely high levels of plasma cholesterol that are expected to influence liver metabolism. One step in the investigation of potential hepatic alterations was the analysis of organic extracts of livers from these and control mice by electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Chemometrics (bioinformatics) analysis shows that the sample spectra cluster into two groups: one from mice with plasma cholesterol levels in excess of 900 mg dL(-1) and one from animals with cholesterol levels of 60-250 mg dL(-1). The loadings plot of the first PC in the principal-components analysis (PCA) reveals the chemical basis for clustering, i.e., biomarkers present at different concentrations in the different groups. The exact masses of the key peaks in this loadings plot indicate these species are phosphatidylcholines (PtdChos). This assignment is confirmed by tandem MS. Partial least-squares (PLS) with variable selection shows that the spectra are well correlated with plasma total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride (TG) levels.
