Analysis and Comparison of Mouse and Human Brain Gangliosides via Two-Stage Matching of MS/MS Spectra
American Chemical SocietyFanran Huang, et al.

Glycosphingolipids (GSLs), including gangliosides, are essential components of the cell membrane. Because of their vital biological functions, a facile method for the analysis and comparison of GSLs in biological issues is desired. To this end, a new method for GSL analysis was developed based on two-stage matching of the carbohydrate and glycolipid product ions of experimental and reference MS/MS spectra of GSLs.
Associations between Vitamin D, Omega 6:Omega 3 Ratio, and Biomarkers of Aging in Individuals Living with and without Chronic Pain

Elevated inflammatory cytokines and chronic pain are associated with shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a measure of cellular aging. Micronutrients, such as 25-hydroxyvitamin D (vitamin D) and omega 3, have anti-inflammatory properties. Little is known regarding the relationships between vitamin D, omega 6:3 ratio, LTL, inflammation, and chronic pain.
An atlas of metallome and metabolome interactions and associations with incident diabetes in the Strong Heart Family Study
