The phenolic profile was produced according to the method described previously by Pu24 (link), with some modification. HPLC analysis was performed on a Shimadzu (Kyoto, Japan) LC-20A system equipped with two pumps (LC-20AB), an injector (SIL-20A), and a detector (SPD-M20A). Separation was performed on a ZORBAX SB-C18 column (I.D. 250 × 4.6 mm, Agilent, USA). The column oven temperature was set to 30 °C. The absorbance was monitored at 253, 279, 284, 310, 324, 327, 355, and 370 nm. The solvent system had a constant flow rate of 0.7 mL/min and a 10 μL injection volume. Solvents such as 0.5% formic acid (eluant B) and methanol (eluant A) were used for the mobile phase. The gradient programs for the samples were as follows: 0–6 min, 90% B; 6–10 min, 90–80% B; 10–11 min, 80–75% B; 11–15 min, 75–70% B; 15–25 min, 70–60% B; 25–32 min, 60–45% B; 32–40 min, 45–0% B; 40–50 min, 0% B; 50–51 min, 0–90% B; 51–60 min, 90% B. The injection volume was maintained at 10 μL, and the constant temperature remained at approximately 30 °C. Detection wavelengths were chosen based on the absorption maximums of the UV spectra of the selected phenolic compounds.

The S180 cells were treated with 5 μM MS275 or 0.4% (v/v) DMSO as control group for 48-h incubation and the sufficient samples were submitted for iTRAQ quantitative proteomics analysis (BGI, Shenzhen, China). Protein extraction, SDS-PAGE purification, protein digestion and peptide quantification was dealt as reference [1 (link)]. The peptide samples were respectively labeled using the iTRAQ Reagent-4plex Multiplex Kit (AB SCIEX) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The labeled peptide fractionation was carried out by using Shimadzu LC-20 AB liquid phase system with 5  μm 4.6 × 250 mm Gemini C18 column and followed by HPLC (Thermo UltiMate 3000 UHPLC). The nanoliter liquid phase separation end was directly connected to the mass spectrometer with a tandem mass spectrometer Q-Exactive HF X (Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Jose, CA). The MS/MS data were searched against the Mascot database (uniprot-human 20151227.fasta) for peptide identification and quantification. The searching result of peptides was filtered by FDR p value with a cut off of 0.05. Based on statistical dispersion of the dataset, ratio of > 1.5 or < 0.667 was used as a strict significance cutoff to acquire a short list of the differentially distributed proteins as indicated in the data legends.

The determination of PA concentrations after incubation with microsomes or supersomes was performed by LC-MS/MS as described earlier by Kaltner et al. (2019) and Enge et al. (2021) [16 (link),57 (link)]. Briefly, a 50 × 2.1 mm Kinetex 2.6 μm Core-Shell EVO C18 100 Å column (Phenomenex, Aschaffenburg, Germany) protected by a SecurityGuard ULTRA EVO C18 2.1 mm guard column (Phenomenex, Aschaffenburg, Germany) was used for chromatographic separation on a Shimadzu Prominence HPLC device (LC-20AB, SIL-20AC HT, CTO-20AC, CBM-20A, Shimadzu, Duisburg, Germany). Column oven temperature was maintained at 30 °C, the flow rate was consistently hold at 0.4 mL/min and the injection volume was 10 µL. The HPLC system was coupled to an API4000 triple quadrupole MS (Sciex, Darmstadt, Germany) which was operated in positive electro spray ionisation (ESI) mode with the following parameters: ionisation voltage: 2500 V; nebuliser gas: 50 psi; heating gas: 50 psi; curtain gas: 30 psi; temperature: 600 °C; collision gas: level 7. The selected PA analytes were determined in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode and quantified by external calibration standards ranging from 10 to 125 nmol/mL in DMEM. The PA content was always normalized to the content at t = 0 h.

The peptides were separated on a Shimadzu LC-20AB HPLC pump system coupled with a high pH RP column. The peptides were reconstituted with buffer A (5% ACN, 95% H2O, pH adjusted to 9.8 with ammonia) to 2 mL and loaded onto a column containing 5-μm particles (Phenomenex). The peptides were separated at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with a gradient of 5% buffer B (5% H2O, 95% ACN, pH adjusted to 9.8 with ammonia) for 10 min, 5%–35% buffer B for 40 min, and 35%–95% buffer B for 1 min. The system was then maintained at 95% buffer B for 3 min and decreased to 5% within 1 min before equilibration for 10 min. Elution was monitored by measuring the absorbance at 214 nm, and fractions were collected every 1 min. The eluted peptides were pooled as 20 fractions and vacuum-dried. More details about the HPLC analysis, mass spectrometry detection, and bioinformatics analysis are given in the Supplementary Materials.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
