Abstract:
To clarify the lipid′s effects on diagnosis and treatment of dis-eases and to enhance the ability to predict the disease risks in advance, lipidomics focuses on the structures and functions of lipids and their me-tabolites.Common analytical methods include direct mass spectrometers ( shotgun lipidomics) or chromatography-mass spectrometers and nuclear magnetic resonance.Lipidomics plays an important role in early diagnosis of disease, biomarker discoveries, new drug development and system study.This article reviewed the applications of lipidomics in biomarkers discovery and the technical approaches in lipidome analysis.
