| Study Title | Two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (2DLC-MS) platform to conduct an in-depth lipidomic analysis of liver and brain tissues from fat-1 transgenic mice exposed to ethanol. |
| Study Summary | To gain deeper insights into how alcohol and fat-1 gene influence lipid metabolism, we employed a two-dimensional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (2DLC-MS) platform to conduct an in-depth lipidomic analysis of liver and brain tissues from fat-1 transgenic mice exposed to ethanol. The 2DLC consisted of a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) column and a reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPC) column configured in a comprehensive mode. We aimed to delineate the lipid regulation changes in both the mouse liver and brain at a systems level and provide insights for understanding the ALD pathogenesis and the protective role of fat-1. |

| Project Title: | Integrated liver and brain lipidomics reveal tissue-specific alcohol effects and systemic intervention of fat-1 gene in mice with alcohol-associated liver disease |
| Project Type: | Original Research |
| Project Summary: | Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) involves profound systemic lipid disruption. Using comprehensive 2DLC-MS-based untargeted lipidomics, we characterized the hepatic and cerebral lipidomes in wild-type and fat-1 transgenic (endogenous omega-3 PUFA-producing) mice subjected to a chronic-plus-binge ethanol model. Compared to fat-1 gene, ethanol intake was the dominant factor that induced 228 lipids in the liver and 316 in the brain with significant abundance changes. . Those significantly changed lipids were consistent across wild-type and fat-1 genotypes but highly tissue-specific. Furthermore, fat-1 genotype significantly modulated ethanol's impact and even reversed the regulation of some lipids, including sphingolipids and monosaturated and saturated fatty acyl-containing lipids. Four lipids in the liver and seven lipids in the brain were co-regulated by ethanol, genotype, and their interaction, with excellent discriminatory power in linear discriminant analysis. The odd-chain lipids of those 11 lipids suggest gut microbiome contributions. While ethanol effects were tissue-specific, fat-1 induced consistent responses in the two tissues, indicating conserved protective pathways. Our findings revealed complex lipid network remodeling in ALD through a multi-factorial affecting the liver-brain axis, highlighting the potential of fat-1 gene to mitigate tissue-specific metabolic dysfunction and informing future therapeutic strategies. |

Sample Preparation:
| Sampleprep ID: | SP004459 |
| Sampleprep Summary: | The procedure began by homogenizing the tissues in methanol at a ratio of 3 mg tissue per 20 μL. Subsequently, 200 μL of the resulting homogenate was mixed with 400 μL of chloroform, vortexed for 2 min, and then incubated for 1 hour. Following incubation, 120 μL of deionized water was added to the mixture. The mixture was vortexed for 2 min and then centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 5 min at room temperature. The bottom chloroform phase (300 μL) was collected and dried under a stream of nitrogen gas. The dried lipid extract was reconstituted in 150 μL of a chloroform/methanol solution (2:1 v/v) containing 1 mM butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) as an antioxidant. The sample was then transferred to a glass vial for 2DLC-MS analysis. |
