The development of a new mass spectrometric lipid profiling methodology permits the identification of cellular phosphatidylinositol monophosphate/phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate/phosphatidylinositol trisphosphate (PIP/PIP₂/PIP₃) species that includes the fatty acyl composition. Using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, we were able to resolve and identify 28 PIP and PIP₂ compounds as well as 8 PIP₃ compounds from RAW 264.7 or primary murine macrophage cell extracts. Analysis of PIP profiles after agonist stimulation of cells revealed the generation of differential PIP₃ species and permitted us to propose a novel means for regulation and specificity in signaling through PIP₃.

This is the first reported identification of intact, cellular PIP₃ by mass spectral analysis. The ability to analyze the fatty acyl chain composition of signaling lipids initiates new venues for investigation of the processes by which specific polyphosphoinositide species mediate.
