Novel Method for Differentiating Histological Types of Gastric Adenocarcinoma by Using Confocal Raman Microspectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Gastric adenocarcinoma, a single heterogeneous disease with multiple epidemiological and histopathological characteristics, accounts for approximately 10% of cancers worldwide. It is categorized into four histological types: papillary adenocarcinoma (PAC), tubular adenocarcinoma (TAC), mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC), and signet ring cell adenocarcinoma (SRC). Effective differentiation of the four types of adenocarcinoma will greatly improve the treatment of gastric adenocarcinoma to increase its five-year survival rate. We reported here the differentiation of the four histological types of gastric adenocarcinoma from the molecularly structural viewpoint of confocal Raman microspectroscopy. In total, 79 patients underwent laparoscopic or open radical gastrectomy during 2008-2011: 21 for signet ring cell carcinoma, 21 for tubular adenocarcinoma, 14 for papillary adenocarcinoma, 6 for mucinous carcinoma, and 17 for normal gastric mucosas obtained from patients underwent operation for other benign lesions. Clinical data were retrospectively reviewed from medical charts, and Raman data were processed and analyzed by using principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). Two-dimensional plots of PCA and LDA clearly demonstrated that the four histological types of gastric adenocarcinoma could be differentiated, and confocal Raman microspectroscopy provides potentially a rapid and effective method for differentiating SRC and MAC from TAC or PAC.

Demonstration of the Protein Involvement in Cell Electropermeabilization using Confocal Raman Microspectroscopy.

Project description:Confocal Raman microspectroscopy was used to study the interaction between pulsed electric fields and live cells from a molecular point of view in a non-invasive and label-free manner. Raman signatures of live human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exposed or not to pulsed electric fields (8 pulses, 1 000?V/cm, 100??s, 1?Hz) were acquired at two cellular locations (nucleus and cytoplasm) and two spectral bands (600-1 800?cm-1 and 2 800-3 100?cm-1). Vibrational modes of proteins (phenylalanine and amide I) and lipids were found to be modified by the electropermeabilization process with a statistically significant difference. The relative magnitude of four phenylalanine peaks decreased in the spectra of the pulsed group. On the contrary, the relative magnitude of the amide I band at 1658?cm-1 increased by 40% when comparing pulsed and control group. No difference was found between the control and the pulsed group in the high wavenumber spectral band. Our results reveal the modification of proteins in living cells exposed to pulsed electric fields by means of confocal Raman microspectroscopy.

Imaging the distribution of sodium dodecyl sulfate in skin by confocal Raman and infrared microspectroscopy.

Project description:PurposeTo image SDS distribution across different skin regions, to compare the permeability difference between porcine and human skin, and to evaluate the interaction between SDS and skin.MethodsFull thickness porcine and human skin was treated with acyl chain perdeuterated SDS (SDS-d(25)) at room temperature and at 34 °C for 3, 24 and 40 h. SDS distribution in skin was monitored by confocal Raman and IR microspectroscopic imaging. Permeation profiles of SDS-d(25) in skin were derived from the band intensities of the CD(2) stretching vibrations. The interaction between SDS and skin was monitored through the CH(2) and CD(2) stretching frequencies and the Amide I and II spectral region.ResultsSDS-d(25) penetrates both porcine and human skin in a time and temperature-dependent manner, with slightly higher permeability through the stratum corneum (SC) in porcine skin. When SDS permeates into the SC, its chains are more ordered compared to SDS micelles. The secondary structure of keratin in the SC is not affected by SDS-d(25).ConclusionThe spatial distribution of SDS-d(25) in skin was obtained for the first time. Infrared microscopic imaging provides unique opportunities to measure concentration profiles of exogenous materials in skin and offers insights to interaction between permeants and skin.

Raman microspectroscopy fingerprinting of organoid differentiation state.

Project description:BackgroundOrganoids, which are organs grown in a dish from stem or progenitor cells, model the structure and function of organs and can be used to define molecular events during organ formation, model human disease, assess drug responses, and perform grafting in vivo for regenerative medicine approaches. For therapeutic applications, there is a need for nondestructive methods to identify the differentiation state of unlabeled organoids in response to treatment with growth factors or pharmacologicals.MethodsUsing complex 3D submandibular salivary gland organoids developed from embryonic progenitor cells, which respond to EGF by proliferating and FGF2 by undergoing branching morphogenesis and proacinar differentiation, we developed Raman confocal microspectroscopy methods to define Raman signatures for each of these organoid states using both fixed and live organoids.ResultsThree separate quantitative comparisons, Raman spectral features, multivariate analysis, and machine learning, classified distinct organoid differentiation signatures and revealed that the Raman spectral signatures were predictive of organoid phenotype.ConclusionsAs the organoids were unlabeled, intact, and hydrated at the time of imaging, Raman spectral fingerprints can be used to noninvasively distinguish between different organoid phenotypes for future applications in disease modeling, drug screening, and regenerative medicine.

Raman microspectroscopy and Raman imaging reveal biomarkers specific for thoracic aortic aneurysms.

Project description:Aortic rupture and dissection are life-threatening complications of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (aTAAs), and risk assessment has been largely based on the monitoring of lumen size enlargement. Temporal changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM), which has a critical impact on aortic remodeling, are not routinely evaluated, and cardiovascular biomarkers do not exist to predict aTAA formation. Here, Raman microspectroscopy and Raman imaging are used to identify spectral biomarkers specific for aTAAs in mice and humans by multivariate data analysis (MVA). Multivariate curve resolution-alternating least-squares (MCR-ALS) combined with Lasso regression reveals elastic fiber-derived (Ce1) and collagen fiber-derived (Cc6) components that are significantly increased in aTAA lesions of murine and human aortic tissues. In particular, Cc6 detects changes in amino acid residues, including phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan, cysteine, aspartate, and glutamate. Ce1 and Cc6 may serve as diagnostic Raman biomarkers that detect alterations of amino acids derived from aneurysm lesions.

Characterising lithium-ion electrolytes via operando Raman microspectroscopy.

Project description:Knowledge of electrolyte transport and thermodynamic properties in Li-ion and beyond Li-ion technologies is vital for their continued development and success. Here, we present a method for fully characterising electrolyte systems. By measuring the electrolyte concentration gradient over time via operando Raman microspectroscopy, in tandem with potentiostatic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, the Fickian "apparent" diffusion coefficient, transference number, thermodynamic factor, ionic conductivity and resistance of charge-transfer were quantified within a single experimental setup. Using lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) in tetraglyme (G4) as a model system, our study provides a visualisation of the electrolyte concentration gradient; a method for determining key electrolyte properties, and a necessary technique for correlating bulk intermolecular electrolyte structure with the described transport and thermodynamic properties.

Orientation-distribution mapping of polycrystalline materials by Raman microspectroscopy.

Project description:Raman microspectroscopy provides the means to obtain local orientations on polycrystalline materials at the submicrometer level. The present work demonstrates how orientation-distribution maps composed of Raman intensity distributions can be acquired on large areas of several hundreds of square micrometers. A polycrystalline CuInSe2 thin film was used as a model system. The orientation distributions are evidenced by corresponding measurements using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) on the same identical specimen positions. The quantitative, local orientation information obtained by means of EBSD was used to calculate the theoretical Raman intensities for specific grain orientations, which agree well with the experimental values. The presented approach establishes new horizons for Raman microspectroscopy as a tool for quantitative, microstructural analysis at submicrometer resolution.

Improving sensitivity in nonlinear Raman microspectroscopy imaging and sensing.

Project description:Nonlinear Raman microspectroscopy based on a broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering is an emerging technique for noninvasive, chemically specific, microscopic analysis of tissues and large population of cells and particles. The sensitivity of this imaging is a critical aspect of a number of the proposed biomedical application. It is shown that the incident laser power is the major parameter controlling this sensitivity. By careful optimizing the laser system, the high-quality vibrational spectra acquisition at the multi-kHz rate becomes feasible.

Changing Disparity of Gastric Cancer Incidence by Histological Types in US Race-Specific Populations.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence pattern of gastric cancer by histological types across major race/ethnic groups is unknown.MethodsAge-standardized rates from 1992-2016 by race/ethnicity were calculated using data from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER). Annual percent changes (APCs) in rates and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated and pairwise comparison of rates between race/ethnic groups was performed using the Joinpoint Regression Program. Calendar periods of incidence rates of gastric cardia and non-cardia cancer by histological types across race/ethnicity groups were shown by figures.ResultsThe White population has the highest incidence of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma and the incidence is keeping constant from 1992 through 2016 except the decreasing in the Asian population (AAPC = -1.4, 95%CI (-2.1, -0.8)). Although the incidence of non-cardia adenocarcinoma is decreasing in each group, the descending trend in the Asian population is the quickest (AAPC = -3.8, 95%CI (-4.0, -3.5)). Gastric carcinoids were observed to have statistically significant increasing trends in all race/ethnicity groups, especially in Hispanic women from 0.4 per 100,000 to 1.6 per 100,000 persons. The incidence of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is rising, with Non-Hispanic blacks having the highest incidence.ConclusionThis study demonstrated disparities in the incidence of gastric cancer by histological types among different race/ethnic groups. Further investigations are warranted to understand the changing incidence patterns by race/ethnicity.

Single-cell measurement of microbial growth rate with Raman microspectroscopy.

Project description:Rates of microbial growth are fundamental to understanding environmental geochemistry and ecology. However, measuring the heterogeneity of microbial activity at the single-cell level, especially within complex populations and environmental matrices, remains a forefront challenge. Stable isotope probing (SIP) is a method for assessing microbial growth and involves measuring the incorporation of an isotopic label into microbial biomass. Here, we assess Raman microspectroscopy as a SIP technique, specifically focusing on the measurement of deuterium (2H), a tracer of microbial biomass production. We correlatively measured cells grown in varying concentrations of deuterated water with both Raman spectroscopy and nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS), generating isotopic calibrations of microbial 2H. Relative to Raman, we find that nanoSIMS measurements of 2H are subject to substantial dilution due to rapid exchange of H during sample washing. We apply our Raman-derived calibration to a numerical model of microbial growth, explicitly parameterizing the factors controlling growth rate quantification and demonstrating that Raman-SIP can sensitively measure the growth of microorganisms with doubling times ranging from hours to years. The measurement of single-cell growth with Raman spectroscopy, a rapid, nondestructive technique, represents an important step toward application of single-cell analysis into complex sample matrices or cellular assemblages.
