Study TitleOffline Two-dimensional Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry for Deep Annotation of the Fecal Metabolome following Fecal Microbiota Transplant
Study SummaryIn this study, we describe a novel experimental strategy using multidimensional chromatography to facilitate compound identification in untargeted metabolomics. Pooled fecal metabolite extract samples were fractionated using an offline semi-preparative liquid chromatography. The resulting fractions were analyzed by an orthogonal LC-MS/MS method, and the data were searched against commercial, public and local spectral libraries. Multidimensional chromatography yielded more than a 3-fold improvement in identified compounds compared to the typical single-dimensional LC-MS/MS approach, and successfully identified several rare and novel compounds including atypical conjugated bile acid species. Most features identified by the new approach could be matched to features that were detectable, but not identifiable, in the original single-dimensional data. An evaluation of this approach in the context of patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection receiving fecal microbiota transplants is also included. Overall, our approach represents a powerful strategy for deeper annotation of the metabolome that can be implemented with common commercially-available instrumentation, and should be applicable to any dataset requiring deeper annotation of the metabolome.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO003083
Collection Summary:All participants were enrolled under IRB #16-2283 at the University of North Carolina Hospital. Fecal samples were collected pre-FMT and six months post-FMT for eight patients with prior unsuccessful antibiotic treatment for C. diff. infection. Fecal samples were aliquoted into Eppendorf tubes and stored at -80 ºC until extraction.
Sample Type:Feces
Collection Method:Colonic flush
Storage Conditions:-80℃

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR003099
Treatment Summary:Fecal samples were collected pre-FMT and six months post-FMT for eight patients with prior unsuccessful antibiotic treatment for C. diff. infection. Participants had received previous therapies including metronidazole, vancomycin short course, vancomycin taper, fidaxomicin, or a probiotic prior to FMT.
Treatment:Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP003096
Sampleprep Summary:Fecal samples were weighed into pre-tared 2 mL Precellys (Bertin Corp.) compatible vials, and one 2.8 mm stainless steel bead was added to aid homogenization. Fecal matter was homogenized using a Precellys Evolution by two 20 s cycles separated by a 30 s break. Extraction solvent was used at a ratio of 1 mL per 5 g feces and was comprised of 1:1:1 methanol:acetonitrile:acetone containing 10 uM of D3-creatine, D10-isoleucine, D2-biotin, D5-tryptophan, D3-caffeine, D3-octanoylcarnitine, D3-palmitoylcarnitine, D4-deoxycholic acid, D4-cholic acid, and D7-arginine as internal standards. Following extraction, samples were centrifuged for 10 min at 17,000 rpm. 100 uL aliquots of supernatant were transferred to Eppendorf vials, dried under a gentle stream of nitrogen, and stored at -80 ºC. On the day of analysis, the dried extracts were reconstituted in 85:15 acetonitrile:water for HILIC analysis or 9:1 water:methanol for RPLC analysis with volumes as described below. Pooled samples were prepared by combining equal volumes of reconstituted fecal matter extracts from all subjects.
Processing Storage Conditions:On ice
Extraction Method:1 g feces / 5 mL of 1:1:1 methanol:acetonitirle:acetone
Extract Storage:4℃
Sample Resuspension:9:1 Water:Methanol for Reversed phase - CSH; 85:15 acetonitrile:water for HILIC

Chromatography ID:CH003688
Chromatography Summary:Individual subject samples, fractionated and unfractionated pooled samples, and analytical standards were analyzed by HILIC (Waters BEH Amide, 2.1 x 100 mm, 1.7 um) and RPLC at high pH (Waters Charged-Surface Hybrid [CSH] C18, 2.1 x 100 mm, 1.7 um) in both positive and negative ion modes on a Thermo Vanquish Horizon LC coupled to an Orbitrap ID-X mass spectrometer. For HILIC separations, mobile phase A consisted of 95:5 water:acetonitrile with 10 mM ammonium formate plus 0.125 % v/v formic acid and mobile phase B was 5:95 water:acetonitrile with the same additive concentrations. HILIC separations utilized the following gradient: 0 min, 100% B; 0-0.5 min 100% B; 0.5-7 min 85% B; 7-9 min 85% B; 9-16 min 50% B; 16-16.1 min 100% B; 16.1-20 min 100% B. For CSH separations, mobile phase A consisted of water with 10 mM ammonium acetate plus 0.025% ammonium hydroxide (v/v) and mobile phase B was methanol with the same additives
