AbstractLipid identification is one of the current bottlenecks in lipidomics and lipid profiling, especially for novel lipid classes, and requires multidimensional data for correct annotation. We used the combination of chromatographic and ion mobility separation together with data-independent acquisition (DIA) of tandem mass spectrometric data for the analysis of lipids in the biomedical model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. C. elegans reacts to harsh environmental conditions by interrupting its normal life cycle and entering an alternative developmental stage called dauer stage. Dauer larvae show distinct changes in metabolism and morphology to survive unfavorable environmental conditions and are able to survive for a long time without feeding. Only at this developmental stage, dauer larvae produce a specific class of glycolipids called maradolipids. We performed an analysis of maradolipids using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry-quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-IM-Q-ToFMS) using drift tube ion mobility to showcase how the integration of retention times, collisional cross sections, and DIA fragmentation data can be used for lipid identification. The obtained results show that combination of UHPLC and IM separation together with DIA represents a valuable tool for initial lipid identification. Using this analytical tool, a total of 45 marado- and lysomaradolipids have been putatively identified and 10 confirmed by authentic standards directly from C. elegans dauer larvae lipid extracts without the further need for further purification of glycolipids. Furthermore, we putatively identified two isomers of a lysomaradolipid not known so far. Graphical abstract

AbstractGlycyrrhiza, a genus of perennial medicinal herbs, has been traditionally used to treat human diseases, including respiratory disorders. Functional analysis of genes involved in the synthesis, accumulation, and degradation of bioactive compounds in these medicinal plants requires accurate measurement of their expression profiles. Reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is a primary tool, which requires stably expressed reference genes to serve as the internal references to normalize the target gene expression. In this study, the stability of 14 candidate reference genes from the two congeneric species G. uralensis and G. inflata, including ACT, CAC, CYP, DNAJ, DREB, EF1, RAN, TIF1, TUB, UBC2, ABCC2, COPS3, CS, R3HDM2, were evaluated across different tissues and throughout various developmental stages. More importantly, we investigated the impact of interactions between tissue and developmental stage on the performance of candidate reference genes. Four algorithms, including geNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper, and Delta Ct, were used to analyze the expression stability and RefFinder, a comprehensive software, provided the final recommendation. Based on previous research and our preliminary data, we hypothesized that internal references for spatio-temporal gene expression are different from the reference genes suited for individual factors. In G. uralensis, the top three most stable reference genes across different tissues were R3HDM2, CAC and TUB, while CAC, CYP and ABCC2 were most suited for different developmental stages. CAC is the only candidate recommended for both biotic factors, which is reflected in the stability ranking for the spatio (tissue)-temporal (developmental stage) interactions (CAC, R3HDM2 and DNAJ). Similarly, in G. inflata, COPS3, R3HDM2 and DREB were selected for tissues, while RAN, COPS3 and CS were recommended for developmental stages. For the tissue-developmental stage interactions, COPS3, DREB and ABCC2 were the most suited reference genes. In both species, only one of the top three candidates was shared between the individual factors and their interactions, specifically, CAC in G. uralensis and COPS3 in G. inflata, which supports our overarching hypothesis. In summary, spatio-temporal selection of reference genes not only lays the foundation for functional genomics research in Glycyrrhiza, but also facilitates these traditional medicinal herbs to reach/maximize their pharmaceutical potential.
