The quantitative analysis of fatty acid composition in atherosclerotic plaques provides a way to monitor the underlying etiology of atherosclerosis. Previously, the method of choice for analyzing fatty acids in biological samples was gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS); however, recent developments in electrospray ionization (ESI)/liquid chromatography (LC)/tandem mass spectrometry have made it a superior alternative. Previous research has largely focused on global analyses of intact lipids rather than more targeted analysis of the fatty acids themselves. We have now developed a targeted, stable isotope dilution LC-electrospray ionization/multiple reaction monitoring/MS method for the quantitative analysis of 10 fatty acids (myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, alpha-linolenic, gamma-linolenic, arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids) using their trimethylaminoethyl ester (TMAE) derivatives to improve sensitivity. The method was validated, had a detection limit in the fmol range, and was used in the analysis of fatty acids in atherosclerotic plaques from carotid arteries. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
