报告摘要
New advances in analytical technologies such as genome sequencing have made a huge impact on health science research. The arrival of rapid DNA sequencing technology has significantly raised the bar on the requirement of performing proteome and metabolome analysis, ideally reaching the complete proteome and metabolome coverage. This presentation will focus on advances in metabolomics technology and its applications in health research. Metabolomics is a relatively newcomer of the omics family for large scale characterization of molecular features of a biological system. A key step in metabolomics is to perform relative quantification of metabolomic changes among different samples. High-coverage metabolome profiling will benefit research in systems biology and disease biomarker discovery, but is currently a challenging task. To increase coverage, traditionally, multiple analytical tools and methods are used to generate a combined metabolome data set. However, this approach requires heavy investment on equipment and high analytical skills and expertise. Even with the combined results, the overall metabolome coverage is still low, particularly for quantitative metabolite analysis. In this presentation, I will discuss a simple and robust platform for in-depth metabolome analysis based on chemical isotope labeling (CIL) liquid chromatography (LC) mass spectrometry (MS). I will discuss the research strategies behind the development of the instrumental platform and standardized workflows for sample preparation, sample analysis, data processing and results analysis. I will then use several examples of applications to showcase the CIL LC-MS platform for disease biomarker discovery research as well as biological studies.
