    Abstract:
    Malonyl-CoA is a key intermediate involved in lipid synthesis and lipid oxidation. Here, we report on a novel method for the quantification of malonyl-CoA and seven other short-chain acyl-CoAs in various rat and mouse tissues using ion-pairing reversed-phase HPLC/MS. This method is capable of measuring malonyl-CoA, free coenzyme A (CoASH), acetyl-CoA, beta-hydroxyl-butyryl-CoA (HB-CoA), 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA), propionyl-CoA, succinyl-CoA, and isobutyryl-CoA simultaneously with a dynamic linear range over two orders of magnitude in a 7.0 min HPLC gradient run. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.225 pmol for all acyl-CoAs studied, except for HMG-CoA which had a higher LLOQ of 0.90 pmol. The interference of HB-CoA on the quantification of malonyl-CoA in animal tissues was also explored for the first time.
