Quantitative analysis of structural and signaling lipid networks
1. Quantitative Analysis of Structural
and Signaling Lipids
A networks approach towards investigating the
human skin lipidome
Dayanjan Wijesinghe, Ph.D.
2. The human skin
Largest organ of the body
Protective barrier function against
Allergens
Irritants
Microorganisms
Water loss
These functions are primarily through the SC
Cells (corneocytes) embedded in a highly organized lipid matrix
Primary lipids are
Ceramides
Cholesterols
Free Fatty Acids

5. 1. Snowballing national and international health problem!
2. Very little focused research
3. Externally accessible
4. Treatments easily testable
5. Very fast translatability
6. Multiple research opportunities
a) Diagnostics
b) Treatments
c) Dressings
7. Multiple avenues of funding
a) NIH – NIGMS, NIDDK, NHLBI, NIA
b) DoD – DMRDP(CDMRP) “to advance medical research and
development (R&D) for wounded warriors ..”
c) Department of Veterans Affairs – PU, DFU.
d) Public-Private partnerships
Why study wound healing?
An area where the combination of analytical chemistry, nanotechnology, and
medicine will yield outstanding translational results!

• Inflammatory status
• Healing potential
• Wound
nutritional status
• Redox balance
• Bacterial load
• Hormone status
•Perfusion status
Why Study the lipidome?
Microbes
Environment
Lifestyle
Phenome
a) Dysregulation of biochemical networks that prevent healing?
b) How can those networks be modified to enable healing?
c) Is what I am doing actually working?
13. Isobaric Overlapment
Experiment: EMS scan of Bovine Heart Extract (BHE)
• Lipidomic spectra
are incredibly
complex
• MS spectra alone
is not sufficient for
iidentification
• MS/MS spectra
generated on
precursors in
zones of isobaric
overlap will
contain product
ions form other
isobaric species
14. The need for analytical specificity
Prostaglandin E2
Prostaglandin D2
