In this study, nanocapillary sampling combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for single-cell lipidomics. The method showed high sensitivity, allowing the tentative identification of around 260 lipids in a single cell. By analyzing the lipid profiles, chemotherapeutic drug-treated cancer cells were distinguished from control cells, and the relative abundance of LPC(0:0/16:0) was found to be significantly affected.
In this work, we demonstrate the development and first application of nanocapillary sampling followed by analytical flow liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for single-cell lipidomics. Around 260 lipids were tentatively identified in a single cell, demonstrating remarkable sensitivity. Human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells (PANC-1) treated with the chemotherapeutic drug gemcitabine can be distinguished from controls solely on the basis of their single-cell lipid profiles. Notably, the relative abundance of LPC(0:0/16:0) was significantly affected in gemcitabine-treated cells, in agreement with previous work in bulk. This work serves as a proof of concept that live cells can be sampled selectively and then characterized using automated and widely available analytical workflows, providing biologically relevant outputs.
