| Collection Summary: | Human samples were collected according to a protocol approved by Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Internal Review Board (#120829) and under informed written patients' consent prior to inclusion in this study. Sample sizes were selected to minimize the invasive procedures. Plasma samples were obtained from patients' blood collected during standard of care surgical procedures. Urine samples were collected from patients' Foley catheters placed for standard of care procedure. Liver samples were obtained from the excess tissue collected as part of the standard of care liver biopsies performed at the time of surgery that would otherwise be discarded. Subsequently, studies at University of California, San Diego were conducted under further auspices of University of California, San Diego Internal Review Board #121220. |

| Sampleprep Summary: | Liver sample extraction. Approximately 10 mg of frozen liver was homogenized in 500 µl of cold (-20°C) 70% CH3OH using a tight-fit glass homogenizer (Kimble/Kontes Glass Co., Vineland, NJ) for about 1 min on ice in the presence of 4 µl of internal standard mix. The suspension was vortexed for 10 s and left in an ice bath for 30 min. After mixing by vortex at 4°C for 1 min and centrifugation (4°C, 18,000 g, 10 min), the supernatant was collected and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in 200 µl of resuspension solvent, vortexed to mix (1 min at 4°C), and centrifuged (4°C, 18,000 g, 10 min) to remove any insoluble material. GPLs: GPLs from liver samples were extracted and analyzed by MS essentially as described in (20, 21). Extraction and analysis of plasma samples was according to previously published procedures (22). Cardiolipin, coenzyme Q, and dolichol: Lipid extractions were performed based on the Bligh and Dyer method with minor modifications (23-25). FAs and eicosanoids: FFAs were extracted essentially as previously described after supplementation with deuterated internal standards (Cayman Chemicals) (26, 27). Eicosanoids were isolated via solid phase extraction, utilizing 25 deuterated internal standards (28, 29). Sterols and oxysterols: Sterols and oxysterols were extracted using previously described methods (30). Neutral lipids: Cholesteryl esters (CEs), TAGs, and DAGs were extracted from weighed liver tissue (0.5-1 mg) suspended in 0.5 ml PBS that had been homogenized by sonication. Extractions of plasma (0.05 ml diluted to 0.1 ml with PBS), urine (1 ml), and tissue sonicates were carried out using 1 ml hexane:methyl t-butyl ether (1:1, v/v), essentially as previously described (31). Sphingolipids: Sphingolipids from liver, plasma, and urine were extracted following previously published procedures (32, 33), with the exception that methylene chloride was substituted for chloroform for the single-phase extraction of sphingoid bases 20.

| Chromatography Summary: | FFAs were analyzed by stable isotope dilution GC-MS after derivatization, essentially as described previously (26, 27). This method quantifies 33 FAs including all major and minor saturated FAs, monounsaturated FAs, and PUFAs containing 12 to 26 carbons. Eicosanoids were analyzed by a stable isotope dilution LC/MS method utilizing 26 deuterated internal standards (28, 29). The metabolites were quantified after separation by reverse phase chromatography on a 2.1 × 100 mm BEH Shield column, 1.7 µM (Waters, Milford, MA) employing an Acquity UPLC system (Waters). Detection and quantification were performed on an AB SCIEX 6500 QTrap mass spectrometer equipped with an IonDrive Turbo V source (AB SCIEX, Framingham, MA), operated in negative ionization mode via MRM, using standard curves generated from 145 authentic quantification standards (34). The method analyzes an additional 13 metabolites based on authentic primary standards, but which cannot be quantified due to the lack of appropriate internal standards. Data analysis was performed using MultiQuant 2.1 software (AB SCIEX). 26. Quehenberger O., Armando A., Dumlao D., Stephens D. L., Dennis E. A. 2008.

| Chromatography Summary: | Sterols and oxysterols were measured using methods previously described (30). Plasma total cholesterol was measured using a Vitros 250 chemistry system (Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Rochester, NY). Plasma free cholesterol and liver free and total cholesterol were measured using methods adapted from (30). 30. McDonald J. G., Smith D. D., Stiles A. R., Russell D. W. 2012.

| Chromatography Summary: | Cardiolipin analysis was achieved with normal phase LC coupled with high-resolution MS performed on a TripleTOF 5600 system (AB SCIEX, Foster City, CA) (24). Dolichol and coenzyme Q were analyzed by reverse phase LC coupled with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) MS utilizing a 4000 Q-Trap hybrid triple quadrupole linear ion-trap mass spectrometer (AB SCIEX) (22, 23). For dolichol analysis, MRM was performed in negative ion mode, with the precursor ions being the (M+acetate)- adduct ions and the product ions being the acetate ions (m/z 59). For coenzyme Q analysis, MRM was carried out in positive ion mode, with ammonium adducts (M+NH4)+ as precursor ions and the proton adducts of the quinone ring of coenzyme Q (m/z 197) as product ions. For quantitation, an internal standard mixture composed of a cardiolipin mix (Avanti Polar Lipids, Inc.), nor-dolichol (13-22) (Avanti Polar Lipids, Inc.), and yeast coenzyme Q6 (Sigma) was added during the first step of lipid extraction (22). 22.

| Chromatography Summary: | The organic solvent extraction layer containing CEs, TAGs, and DAGs was taken to dryness, then derivatized with 2,5-difluorophenylisocyanate to convert DAGs to urethane derivatives (35). The derivatized extract was separated by normal phase LC as previously described (35). The CEs eluting first from the LC column were detected by 20 specific MRM transitions corresponding to each [M+NH4]+ ion being collisionally activated to m/z 369.3. During elution of TAGs, the mass spectrometer was set to carry out full mass scanning from m/z 400-1,000. The DAGs were detected by neutral loss scanning of 190 Da. 35. Leiker T. J., Barkley R.
