The metabolic profiles of the polar metabolites and the non-polar metabolites in lung tumor cell lines H358, A549, HCC827, H1299, Calu-3, Calu-l, PC-9 and normal cell line MRC-5 were analyzed separately using high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-Q-TOF/MS). Partial least square discriminant analysis ( PLS-DA) was used to process the metabolic data. The results showed that the metabolites of the lung cancer cell lines and normal cell line have significant differences. Further, 10 polar metabolites and 21 non-polar metabolites which had a significant contribution to classification were selected and preliminarily identified due to the accurate mass. Comparing with the normal cell line, the lung tumor cell lines present an abnormal metabolism in protein, fatty acid, and phospholipids. These results may provide important information for the early diagnosis of lung cancer.
