Surfactant Lipidomics of Alveolar Lavage Fluid in Mice Based on Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Hybrid Quadrupole-Exactive Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Surfactant lipid metabolism is closely related to pulmonary diseases. Lipid metabolism disorder can cause lung diseases, vice versa. With this rationale, a useful method was established in this study to determine the lipidome in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of mice. The lipid components in BALF were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction (methanol and methyl tert-butyl ether, and water). Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to hybrid Quadrupole-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry was used to analyze the extracted samples, which showed a broad scanning range of 215-1800 m/z. With MS-DIAL software and built-in LipidBlast database, we identified 38 lipids in positive, and 31 lipids in negative, ion mode, including lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC), phosphati
