Normalized binned NMR data were mean centered and Pareto scaled prior to multivariate analysis

Normalized binned NMR data were mean centered and Pareto scaled prior to multivariate analysis. of the media following treatment was collected, and the remainder of the media was aspirated. The cells were washed with PBS twice, and quenched with 8?mL ice-cold isotonic 0.9% (w/v) saline for 2?minutes. Total cellular content was then extracted with 1.7?mL ice-cold acetonitrile/water (50:50, v/v) solution. Cell extracts were collected using a cell scraper and quickly transferred to MagNA Lyser Green Beads tubes (Roche, Indianapolis, USA) and stored in ?80?C. Media was added to empty plates and incubated together with the cells for the duration of the experiment served as a blank. Cells were homogenized on the MagNA Lyzer, with two 30-sec cycles at 2000 rpm, resting in a ?20?C chilling block for 1?min in between pulses, and centrifuged samples at 16,000 rcf for 4?min. The cell lysate was transferred to a new 2?mL Lo-Bind Eppendorf tubes, with the final cell count approximately 10??106 cells for each sample. Of the twenty cell lysate samples, six samples had sufficient volume for study samples and to be included in an analytical quality control (QC) total pool. Aliquots from these cell lysate samples were combined, divided into three total pool aliquots, and processed identically to the cell lysate study samples. All study and pool samples were lyophilized to dryness and reconstituted in a 0.2?M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, in D2O with 10% Chenomx ISTD. NMR data acquisition and analysis Data acquisition, statistics, and pathway analysis were performed as previously described17,70,71. Three NMR spectra were acquired for each of the individual study samples and the pooled samples. 1H NMR spectra of cell lysate samples were acquired on a Bruker Avance III 700?MHz NMR spectrometer (located at the David H. Murdock Research Institute at Kannapolis, NC, USA) using a NOESY1D (noesypr1d) pulse sequence. NMR spectra were pre-processed using ACD 1D NMR Processor 12.0 (ACD Labs, Toronto, Canada). NMR bins (0.50C9.30 ppm) were made after excluding water (4.70C5.20 ppm) and regions with low signal to noise72 (5.95C6.85, 8.47C8.85, 9.00C9.25 ppm) using intelligent binning width of 0.04 ppm and 50% looseness factor. Integrals of each of the bins were normalized to total integral of each of the spectrum. Descriptive statistics and two-sided t-tests, using the Satterthwaite approximation for unequal variances, were conducted for the tumor and normal binned NMR data (SAS Institute Inc, Cary, NC). When there were at least 6 samples in each group of a binary comparison, the Wilcoxon rank sum test was used; for sample sizes smaller than this, the exact Wilcoxon rank was employed. Spectral replicates were treated as independent samples for this pilot study, and p-values? ?0.1 were considered to be statistically significant and were not adjusted for multiple testing73,74. Normalized binned NMR data were mean centered and Pareto scaled prior to multivariate analysis. Multivariate data analysis methods (e.g. principal component analysis [PCA], orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis [OPLS-DA]) were used to reduce the dimensionality and to enable the visualization of the separation of the study groups (SIMCA 14.1, Umetrics, Ume?, Sweden). The PCA plots were inspected to ensure that the pooled samples were tightly clustered in the center of all of the individual study samples, a quality control method that is widely used in metabolites studies75. All models used a 7-collapse cross-validation to assess the predictive ability of the model (Q2). Loadings plots and variable influence on projections (VIP) plots were inspected, and bins that experienced a VIP??1.0 having a jack-knife confidence interval that did not include 0 were determined to be important to differentiating the study organizations. Chenomx NMR Suite 8.2 Professional software (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada), which has a concentration library of approximately 350 compounds, was used to match the signals in the identified bins to metabolites. Chenomx was also used to semi-quantify metabolites, and all concentrations were adjusted to the cell count for each sample. Metabolites identified as important (VIP??1.0, p? ?0.1, or magnitude of fold switch (FC)? ?2) were analyzed for pathway enrichment analysis using the knowledge-based canonical pathways and.Multivariate data analysis methods (e.g. 14 were found to inhibit desmoid cellular growth but not normal fibroblast viability in our on-going testing studies, and there were no visible indications of cell death after the 24?hours. An aliquot of the press following treatment was collected, and the remainder of the press was aspirated. The cells were washed with PBS twice, and quenched with 8?mL ice-cold isotonic 0.9% (w/v) saline for 2?moments. Total cellular content material was then extracted with 1.7?mL ice-cold acetonitrile/water (50:50, v/v) solution. Cell components were collected using a cell scraper and quickly transferred to MagNA Lyser Green Beads tubes (Roche, Indianapolis, USA) and stored in ?80?C. Press was added to bare plates and incubated together with the cells for the duration of the experiment served as a blank. Cells were homogenized within the MagNA Lyzer, with two 30-sec cycles at 2000 rpm, resting inside a ?20?C chilling block for 1?min in between pulses, and centrifuged samples at 16,000 rcf for 4?min. The cell lysate was transferred to a new 2?mL Lo-Bind Eppendorf tubes, HIF-C2 with the final cell count approximately 10??106 cells for each sample. Of the twenty cell lysate samples, six samples had sufficient volume for study samples and to become included in an analytical quality control (QC) total pool. Aliquots from these cell lysate samples were combined, divided HIF-C2 into three total pool aliquots, and processed identically to the cell lysate study samples.

When there were at least 6 samples in each group of a binary assessment, the Wilcoxon rank sum test was used; for sample sizes smaller than this, the exact Wilcoxon rank was used.
