Cardiovascular diseases are often associated with impaired lipid metabolism. Animal models are useful for deciphering the physiological mechanisms underlying these pathologies. However, lipid metabolism is contrasted between species limiting the transposition of findings from animals to human. Hence, we aimed to compare extended lipid profiles of several animal species to bring new insights in animal model selections. Human lipid phenotype was compared with those of 10 animal species. Standard plasma lipids and lipoprotein profiles were obtained by usual methods and lipidomic analysis was conducted by liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). As anticipated, we found contrasted lipid profiles between species. Some of them exhibited similar plasma lipids to human (non-human primate, rat, hamster, pig), but only usual lipid profiles of pigs were superimposable with human. LC-HRMS analyses allowed the identification of 106 other molecular species of lipids, common to all samples and belonging to major lipid families. Multivariate analyses clearly showed that hamster and, in a lower extent mouse, exhibited close lipid fingerprints to that of human. Besides, several lipid candidates that were previously reported to study cardiovascular diseases ranged similarly in human and hamster. Hence, hamster appeared to be the best option to study physiological disturbances related to cardiovascular diseases.

Plasma lipidomic analysis reveals strong similarities between lipid fingerprints in human, hamster and mouse compared to other animal species
