Mediator lipidomics by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

Yoshihiro Kita et al. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Cell Biol Lipids. 2017 Aug.

Abstract

Comprehensive quantitative analysis of lipid mediators using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry is an effective strategy in the elucidation of disease mechanisms; but technically, it has been and is still a great challenge to achieve reliable datasets that cover variety of lipid metabolites contained at trace levels in complex biological matrices. In this opinion article, we introduce our experiences in developing lipid mediator profiling systems, and deliver some comments on limitations of current methodology.
