Prediction and evaluation of the effect of pre-centrifugation sample management on the measurable untargeted LC-MS plasma metabolome

ABSTRACT:

Optimal handling is the most important means to ensure adequate sample quality. We aimed to investigate whether pre-centrifugation delay time and temperature could be accurately predicted and to what extent variability induced by pre-centrifugation management can be adjusted for. We used untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolomics to predict and evaluate the influence of pre-centrifugation temperature and delayed time on plasma samples. Pre-centrifugation temperature (4, 25 and 37 °C; classification rate 87%) and time (5–210 min; Q2 = 0.82) were accurately predicted using Random Forest (RF). Metabolites uniquely reflecting temperature and temperature-time interactions were discovered using a combination of RF and generalized linear models. Time-related metabolite profiles suggested a perturbed stability of the metabolome at all temperatures in the investigated time period (5–210 min), and the variation at 4 °C was observed in particular before 90 min. A total of 14 and 8 metabolites were selected and validated for accurate prediction of pre-centrifugation temperature (classification rate 94%) and delay time (Q2 = 0.90), respectively. In summary, the metabolite profile was rapidly affected by pre-centrifugation delay at all temperatures and thus the pre-centrifugation delay should be as short as possible for metabolomics analysis. The metabolite panels provided accurate predictions of pre-centrifugation delay time and temperature in healthy individuals in a separate validation sample. Such predictions could potentially be useful for assessing legacy samples where relevant metadata is lacking. However, validation in larger populations and different phenotypes, including disease states, is needed.

Project description:The Biospecimen Pre-analytical Variables (BPV) Program is a National Cancer Institute-sponsored study to systematically assess the effects of pre-analytical factors on the molecular profile of biospecimens. A robust biospecimen collection infrastructure was established to prospectively collect biospecimens using rigorous standard operating procedures to control for most variables while introducing experimental conditions to study specific biospecimen handling issues, including the cold ischemic time (delay to formalin fixation), time in formalin, freezing methods, and storage temperatures and durations. RNA and DNA from biospecimens collected under these conditions was analyzed on multiple molecular platforms. The potential effects of these pre-analytical conditions on protein integrity and detection of metabolites were also examined. Data from this study will be used to develop evidence-based biospecimen standard operating procedures and best practices for fit-for-purpose collection, processing, and storage of biospecimens. The BPV Cohort is utilized in the following dbGaP substudies.
