Statistical Search Space Reduction and Two-Dimensional Data Display Approaches for UPLC-MS in Biomarker Discovery and Pathway Analysis
2006
A new analytical strategy for biomarker recovery from directly coupled ultra-performance liquid chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC Tof MS) data on biofluids is presented and exemplified using a study on hydrazine-induced liver toxicity. A key step in the strategy involves a novel procedure for reducing the spectroscopic search space by differential analysis of cohorts of normal and pathological samples using an orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis (O-PLS-DA). This efficiently sorts principal discriminators of toxicity from the background of thousands of metabolic features commonly observed in data sets generated by UPLC−MS analysis of biological fluids and is thus a powerful tool for biomarker discovery.
