Detection of target peptide by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) analysis using a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer (Triple Q MS). The total ion chromatogram (TIC) presents the ion intensity of all peptides determined by nanoLC-Orbitrap. The extracted ion chromatogram (XIC) presents ion intensity determined by MRM transition of the target peptide. In MRM analysis, the target peptide is selected by two mass filters (Q1 and Q3), resulted in a highly selective chromatogram, as shown in the right XIC, by reducing noise from the complex peptide sample, shown in the left TIC.

Comparison of absolute protein expression levels of transporters in brain capillaries between (A) human and monkey and (B) human and mouse. The protein expression levels are taken from our previous reports: human,12 monkey,8 and mouse.6 In panel (B), mouse abca8a, abca8b, and abca9 were compared as possible homologues of human ABCA8. Human OATP-A and OATP-B were compared as possible homologues of mouse oatp-2 at the BBB. The solid line passing through the origin represents the line of identity, and the broken lines represent threefold differences. Each point represents mean ± SD. The molecules on the horizontal (mouse and monkey) or vertical (human) axis are under the limits of quantification.
