tion in the relative peak intensity for lower concentrations can be caused by reorientation of NAADP molecules with respect to the gold nanoparticles’ surfaces in the SERS sensor. 31,32 The correlation between the SERS spectra of cells treated with acetylcholine and that of pure NAADP was conducted using principal component analysis (PCA). 33 Principal component analysis is a technique which minimizes the dimensionality of the analyzed data array and permits assessment of the degree of correlation between large data sets. It is one of the most widely used methods in chemometrics, and it has been demonstrated to be efficient for analyzing SERS data. 34-36 According to the PCA results (Figure 5b), the control data acquired on untreated cells form a cluster which is denoted as “A”, away from the data of the treated cells, denoted as “B”. This confirms that the SERS sensor employed here distinguishes between the cells producing different amounts of NAADP. Furthermore, there is a clear correlation between the SERS spectra of the treated cells and that of the aqueous solution of 100 µM NAADP. This concentration is within the range of the expected induced NAADP concentration increase, according to the protocol that was used in this work. While this concentration (32) Barhoumi, A.; Zhang, D. M.; Halas, N. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 14040–14041. (33) Jolliffe, I. T. Principal Component Analysis, 2nd ed.; Springer: New York, 2002.

CONCLUSION Label-free NAADP detection and quantification in cell extracts is enabled by SERS, which permits the rapid detection of NAADP with a 100 µM concentration without any special sample purification or labeling. Importantly, this concentration does not represent a limit for SERS sensing of second calcium messengers. We were able to successfully detect 10 nM concentrations of NAADP in aqueous solution, which is on the order of basal levels of NAADP in cells, suggesting that intracellular SERS detection of the calcium messengers is possible.

Kazaoka, Graziella E. Ronsein, Fernanda M. Prado, Thiago C. Genaro-Mattos, Miriam Uemi, Paolo Di Mascio, and Sayuri Miyamoto* Departamento de Bioquímica, Instituto de Química, Universidade de São Paulo, CP26077, CEP 05513-970, São Paulo, SP, Brazil Cholesterol oxidation gives rise to a mixture of oxidized products. Different types of products are generated according to the reactive species being involved. Recently, attention has been focused on two cholesterol aldehydes, 3�-hydroxy-5�-hydroxy-B-norcholestane-6�-carboxyaldehyde (1a) and 3�-hydroxy-5-oxo-5,6-secocholestan-6-al (1b). These aldehydes can be generated by ozone-, as well as by singlet molecular oxygen-mediated cholesterol oxidation. It has been suggested that 1b is preferentially formed by ozone and 1a is preferentially formed by singlet molecular oxygen. In this study we describe the use of 1-pyrenebutyric hydrazine (PBH) as a fluorescent probe for the detection of cholesterol aldehydes. The formation of the fluorescent adduct between 1a with PBH was confirmed by HPLC-MS/MS. The fluorescence spectra of PBH did not change upon binding to the aldehyde. Moreover, the derivatization was also effective in the absence of an acidified medium, which is critical to avoid the formation of cholesterol aldehydes through Hock cleavage of 5r-hydroperoxycholesterol. In conclusion, PBH can be used as an efficient fluorescent probe for the detection/quantification of cholesterol aldehydes in biological samples. Its analysis by HPLC coupled to a fluorescent detector provides a sensitive and specific way to quantify cholesterol aldehydes in the low femtomol range. Cholesterol (cholest-5-en-3�-ol) is a neutral lipid found in the cellular membranes of mammals. 1 Cholesterol is susceptible to oxidation mediated by enzymatic and nonenzymatic mechanisms. 2-5 The nonenzymatic oxidation can be mediated by reactive oxygen species. 2 Several oxidized products of cholesterol have been characterized including hydroperoxides, epoxides, and aldehydes. 2,6,7 These oxysterols have been detected in biological tissues and their formation has been associated to neurodegenerative and cardio- * To whom correspondence should be addressed.

In vitro studies have shown that cholesterol aldehydes can covalently modify proteins, as well as, accelerate their aggregation, as in the case of amyloid �-peptide formation 15-17 and R-synuclein 14 . Further studies have shown that covalent modification of apo-B by 1b causes this protein to misfold, rendering the LDL particle more susceptible to macrophage uptake. 18 Moreover, some reports have also shown that cholesterol aldehydes can induce apoptosis in macrophages and cardiomyoblasts. 19,20 The induction of apoptosis in cardi- (8) Wentworth, P., Jr.; Nieva, J.; Takeuchi, C.; Galve, R.; Wentworth, A.
