Curcuma aeruginosa is known as one of the components of herbal medicine with various biological activities. This research aims to identify the metabolites content of C. aeruginosa related to their biological activities using LC-MS fingerprint combined with chemometrics. C. aeruginosa from 3 areas in Java were collected and macerated with ethanol and then analyzed with LC-MS. Along with this analysis, the antioxidant activity of all samples was determined using CUPRAC method, and the toxicity was determined using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT), and chemometric method was used Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and Partial Least square (PLS). Metabolites profiles showed 175 predicted compounds, in which the dominant compounds are from the sesquiterpene of Curcuma genus. The PCA metabolites profiles can separate the samples by their location of origin. Interpretation of the correlation between metabolites profiles and their bioactivities was determined using PLS technique. The results showed that the toxicity of samples was exerted by compounds with ion mass of 312.28 and 248.15, which have the highest antioxidant and toxicity potentials. Compounds with ion mass of 248.15 were predicted to be 9-Oxo-neoprocurcumenol, 7α,11α,-Epoxy-5β-hydroxy-9-guaiaen-8-one, Curcumenolactone A, or Curcumenolactone B. While compound with ion mass of 312.28 was predicted to tetrahydro-bisdemethoxycurcumin.

Abstract Objectives Dried ginger and ginger are the same type of medicine and food. The differential components of ginger and dried ginger, dried ginger and ginger charcoal were investigated. Materials and Methods The experimental materials were divided into three sample groups: the ginger group, dried ginger group and ginger charcoal group. The ginger group, dried ginger group and ginger charcoal group were qualitatively analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS). The data were processed by Marker View Software. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least-square discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were performed with SIMCA 13.0 Software. The differential components of the ginger group and dried ginger group as well as the dried ginger group and ginger charcoal group with a VIP>2 (p<0.05), were identified with PeakView 1.2 Software. Results Ten differential components, including 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol and 10-gingerol, were identified between the ginger group and dried ginger group; 13 differential components, including 6-shogaol, 10-gingerol and zingiberone, were identified between the dried ginger group and ginger charcoal group. Conclusions The main differential components between the ginger group and dried ginger group, dried ginger group and ginger charcoal group were gingerols and diphenylheptanes. Based on metabolomics analysis of the chemical composition of ginger medicinal materials, effects and other related factors, it is recommended that 6-gingerol, 6-shogaol and zingiberone should be used as indicative components for the respective quality evaluation of ginger, dried ginger and ginger charcoal. The results of this study may provide a basis for the reasonable quality evaluation of ginger medicinal materials.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a multifactor condition predisposing for diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and other degenerative disorders. Although several diagnostic criteria have been established, none of them is specific and there is a call for better pathophysiological explanation of MetS and for the discovery of molecular biomarkers. Phenotype characterization at metabolome level might be useful for both purposes. To this end, our aim was to perform comparative untargeted metabolomics of urines from MetS patients and from the control group. The study participants included 52 diagnosticated and 50 healthy individuals from Leon city in central Mexico; 23 anthropometric and clinical parameters were measured and submitted to Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The obtained PCA model allowed us for selection of 11 MetS patients and 13 control subjects, correspondingly representative for each of the two groups (clearly separated in PCA). The first morning urines from these subjects were ambulatory collected and, after methanol extraction and acidification, were submitted to capillary liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). The obtained data were analyzed on MetaboScape® platform (Bruker Daltonics). Specifically, t-test applied to LC-HRMS data revealed several ions presenting at least 3-fold higher intensities in MetS with respect to the control samples (p < 0.05). Data analysis and complementary experiments yielded the identification of the following metabolites: indole-3-acetic acid, indole-3-acetic acid-O-glucuronide, N-(indol-3-ylacetyl) glutamine, indole-3-carbaldehyde and hydroxyhexanoycarnitine. Additionally, indole-3-carboxylic acid was annotated with 2.13-fold higher abundance in MetS patients. To assess the contribution of individual metabolites in the difference between two groups of subjects, partial least square discriminant analysis was performed for LC-HRMS data and the obtained values of variable importance in projection (VIP), confirmed the association of six above mentioned compounds with MetS. Overall, this study provides direct evidence on the disturbed catabolism of tryptophan in metabolic syndrome.

Abstract Blood metabolome can be used to estimate the growth, nutrition, and health status of livestock. The objective of this study is to find the differently expressed metabolome according to ages and nutritional levels in feeds to predict and control cattle performances. We used Hanwoo cattle at different ages that were fed diets with different nutritional levels. One hundred thirty two blood samples were collected from 22 Hanwoo steers at 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28 months and compared their blood metabolomes by using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. The results of our comparative analysis showed clear discriminations in blood metabolomic profiles among the ages but not between nutritional levels. Based on the results of t-test, fold changes, and partial least square discriminant analysis, 19 metabolites showed high sensitivity for ages. Alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, betaine, carnitine, choline, citrulline, creatine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, histidine, lactate, leucine, proline, pyruvate, serine, tryptophan, and valine could be directly linked to ages. In particular, three metabolic pathways, ammonia recycling; urea cycle; and glycine and serine metabolism were shown to be enriched with the ages (FDR &lt; 0.05, P &lt; 0.05). Thus, the differently expressed metabolites and their related metabolic pathways in the blood plasma may contribute to the biomarkers which indicate the potential for early growing and fattening of indiviual beef cattle. Our findings may allow for better understanding of the mechanism of cattle growth physiology and metabolism, which is necessary for selecting appropriate feeding strategies to improve beef quality and productivity.
