Plasma Lipidomics of Coronary Heart Disease Patient with Syndrome of Intermingling of Phlegm and Static Blood Based on UPLC-Q/TOF-MS / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ABSTRACT

<b>Objective::To study on the plasma lipidomics characteristics of coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with syndrome of of intermingling of phlegm and static blood, and to find differential lipid metabolites between them and healthy volunteers. <b>Method::The plasma samples from CHD patients with syndrome of intermingling of phlegm and static blood and healthy volunteers of the same age were collected. The plasma lipidomics was carried out by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The plasma samples were detected under positive and negative ion modes, and the primary and secondary mass spectrometry datas were collected simultaneously, and the <italic>m</italic>/<italic>z</italic> ranges were 100-2 000 and 50-2 000, respectively. The lipidomics model was established by orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). Differential lipid metabolites were identified based on multivariate statistics. <b>Result::OPLS-DA model could obviously distinguish CHD patients with syndrome of intermingling of phlegm and static blood and healthy volunteers. A total of 15 plasma differential lipid metabolites were identified, such as C16 sphinganine, phytosphingosine, <italic>N</italic>, <italic>N</italic>-dimethyl-safingol, 2-hydroxyphytanic acid, orotinichalcone, PC[18∶2(2<italic>E</italic>, 4<italic>E</italic>)/0∶0], PC(0∶0/16∶0), epitestosterone sulfate, etiocholanolone sulfate, PS[22∶1(11<italic>Z</italic>)/0∶0], PC[16∶0/20∶4(5<italic>E</italic>, 8<italic>E</italic>, 11<italic>E</italic>, 14<italic>E</italic>)], PC[19∶1(9<italic>Z</italic>)/17∶2(9<italic>Z</italic>, 12<italic>Z</italic>)], PC(16∶0/0∶0), PC(18∶0/0∶0), PS[15∶1(9<italic>Z</italic>)/22∶1(11<italic>Z</italic>)]. <b>Conclusion::There are significant differences in plasma lipid characteristics between CHD patients with syndrome of intermingling of phlegm and static blood and healthy volunteers. The plasma differential lipid metabolites are helpful for the accurate differentiation of CHD patients with syndrome of intermingling of phlegm and static blood.
