Mass spectrometric-based steroidomics is a valuable analytical approach that gives a comprehensive understanding of the interlinked steroid biosynthetic pathways. Here, we describe a rapid and versatile liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method designed to accurately quantify endogenous steroids in human serum. Sample preparation involved liquid-liquid extraction with methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) from 180 µL serum. The targeted steroids for quantification included androgens: dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), androstenedione (A4), testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), 11-oxyandrogens: 11β-hydroxy-androstenedione (11OHA4), 11-keto-androstenedione (11KA4), 11β-hydroxy-testosterone (11OHT), 11-keto-testosterone (11KT), progestogens: 17α-hydroxy-progesterone (17OHP4), progesterone (P4), 11β-hydroxy-progesterone (11OHP4), 11-keto-progesterone (11KP4), mineralocorticoids: aldosterone, corticosterone, and glucocorticoids: 11-deoxycortisol, cortisol, and cortisone. The lower limits of quantification (LLOQ) were 0.05 ng/mL for A4, T, 11KA4, P4, and cortisone, 0.1 ng/mL for DHT, 11OHA4, 11OHT, 11KT, 17OHP4, 11OHP4, 11KP4, corticosterone, aldosterone, 11-deoxycortisol, and cortisol, and 0.5 ng/mL for DHEA. Accuracy, precision, reproducibility, and recovery fell within acceptable limits for bioanalytical method validation. Using serum samples from 29 premenopausal women in different menstrual phases, we demonstrated the clinical utility of our method, which showed sufficient sensitivity to reliably quantify all targeted steroids at levels typically found in circulation, except for 11OHP4 and 11KP4.
