Sialic acids form the terminal sugars in glycan chains on glycoproteins via alpha 2,3, alpha 2,6, or alpha 2,8 linkages, and structural isomers of sialyl linkages play various functional roles in cell recognition and other physiological processes. We recently developed a novel procedure based on sialic acid linkage-specific alkylamidation via lactone ring opening (aminolysis-SALSA). Herein, we have investigated an isotope labeling of alpha 2,3-linked sialic acid residues (iSALSA) using amine hydrochloride salts. One limitation of SALSA using amine hydrochloride salts may be solved by adding only tert-butylamine (t-BA) as an acid scavenger, and comparative and quantitative glycomic analyses can be performed using iSALSA. We also developed quantitative glycomic analysis using dual isotope-labeled glycans by derivatizing with aminooxy-functionalized tryptophanylarginine methyl ester (aoWR) and iSALSA at the reducing and nonreducing end, respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the amount of alpha 2,3-linked sialoglycans in serum are altered during liver fibrosis using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and liquid chromatography MS (LC/MS) analyses. We revealed that the ratio of A3(3,6,6) to A3F(3,6,6) was gradually decreased along with liver fibrosis progression. Therefore, these glycan alterations are potential diagnostic markers of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) fibrosis progression.
