  1. Metabolites with uncertain identity are also included. The characteristics include the identification references together with parameters for the LC–MS analysis, including the chromatography (column), ionization mode in the mass spectrometry (Ionization mode), MW molecular weight, identified ion (m/z), RT retention time, CID collision-induced dissociation energy, MS/MS fragments fragment ions in the tandem mass spectrometry
  2. LysoPC lysophosphatidylcholine, LysoPE lysophosphatidylethanolamine, PC phosphatidylcholine
  3. aIdentification of metabolites is based on manual MS/MS spectral interpretation, METLIN ID when MS/MS spectrum available, commercial standard compound or some fragmentation patterns published earlier [25]
