Tissue spray ionization mass spectrometry for rapid recognition of human lung squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Tissue spray ionization mass spectrometry (TSI-MS) directly on small tissue samples has been shown to provide highly specific molecular information. In this study, we apply this method to the analysis of 38 pairs of human lung squamous cell carcinoma tissue (cancer) and adjacent normal lung tissue (normal). The main components of pulmonary surfactants, dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC, m/z 757.47), phosphatidylcholine (POPC, m/z 782.52), oleoyl phosphatidylcholine (DOPC, m/z 808.49), and arachidonic acid stearoyl phosphatidylcholine (SAPC, m/z 832.43), were identified using high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry. Monte Carlo sampling partial least squares linear discriminant analysis (PLS-LDA) was used to distinguish full-mass-range mass spectra of cancer samples from the mass spectra of normal tissues. With 5 principal components and 30-40 Monte Carlo samplings, the accuracy of cancer identification in matched tissue samples reached 94.42%. Classification of a tissue sample required less than 1 min, which is much faster than the analysis of frozen sections. The rapid, in situ diagnosis with minimal sample consumption provided by TSI-MS is advantageous for surgeons. TSI-MS allows them to make more informed decisions during surgery.

Endometriosis foci differentiation by rapid lipid profiling using tissue spray ionization and high resolution mass spectrometry.

Project description:Obtaining fast screening information on molecular composition of a tissue sample is of great importance for a disease biomarkers search and for online surgery control. In this study, high resolution mass spectrometry analysis of eutopic and ectopic endometrium tissues (90 samples) is done using direct tissue spray mass spectrometry in both positive and negative ion modes. The most abundant peaks in the both ion modes are those corresponding to lipids. Species of three lipid classes are observed, phosphatidylcholines (PC), sphingomyelins (SM) and phosphoethanolamines (PE). Direct tissue analysis gives mainly information on PC and SM lipids (29 species) in positive ion mode and PC, SM and PE lipids (50 species) in negative ion mode which gives complementary data for endometriosis foci differentiation. The biggest differences were found for phospholipids with polyunsaturated acyls and alkils. Although, tissue spray shows itself as appropriate tool for tissue investigation, caution should be paid to the interpretation of mass spectra because of their higher complexity with more possible adducts formation and multiple interferences must be taken into account. The present work extends the application of direct tissue analysis for the rapid differentiation between endometriotic tissues of different foci.

Biological tissue diagnostics using needle biopsy and spray ionization mass spectrometry.

Project description:Needle biopsy is a routine medical procedure for examining tissue or biofluids for the presence of disease using standard methods of pathology. In this work, spray ionization directly from tissue in the biopsy needle is shown to provide highly specific molecular information through mass spectrometry analysis. The data are available within a minute after the tissue biopsy, a time scale that allows immediate medical decisions to be made. This method has been performed for tissues in a variety of organs including brain, liver, kidney, adrenal gland, stomach, and spinal cord. Amino acids, hormones, fatty acids, anesthetics, and phospholipids are detected from the tissues and identified using exact mass measurement and tandem mass spectrometry. Lipid profiles are rich in information and, as in imaging MS methods, they have the potential to serve to distinguish diseased from healthy tissue. Needle biopsies allow a crude form of depth profiling that is demonstrated with the analysis of tissue samples taken by a needle inserted into a porcine kidney at various depths.

Extracellular Vesicle Analysis by Paper Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Paper spray ionization mass spectrometry (PSI-MS) is a direct MS analysis technique with several reported bacterial metabolomics applications. As with most MS-based bacterial studies, all currently reported PSI-MS bacterial analyses have focused on the chemical signatures of the cellular unit. One dimension of the bacterial metabolome that is often lost in such analyses is the exometabolome (extracellular metabolome), including secreted metabolites, lipids, and peptides. A key component of the bacterial exometabolome that is gaining increased attention in the microbiology and biomedical communities is extracellular vesicles (EVs). These excreted structures, produced by cells in all domains of life, contain a variety of biomolecules responsible for a wide array of cellular functions, thus representing a core component of the bacterial secreted metabolome. Although previously examined using other MS approaches, no reports currently exist for a PSI-MS analysis of bacterial EVs, nor EVs from any other organism (exosomes, ectosomes, etc.). PSI-MS holds unique analytical strengths over other commonly used MS platforms and could thus provide an advantageous approach to EV metabolomics. To address this, we report a novel application representing, to our knowledge, the first PSI-MS analysis of EVs from any organism (using the human gut resident Oxalobacter formigenes as the experimental model, a bacterium whose EVs were never previously investigated). In this report, we show how we isolated and purified EVs from bacterial culture supernatant by EV-specific affinity chromatography, confirmed and characterized these vesicles by nanoparticle tracking analysis, analyzed the EV isolate by PSI-MS, and identified a panel of EV-derived metabolites, lipids, and peptides. This work serves as a pioneering study in the field of MS-based EV analysis and provides a new, rapid, sensitive, and economical approach to EV metabolomics.

Analysis of lipids from crude lung tissue extracts by desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and pattern recognition.

Project description:A method is described using desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrometry (MS) to obtain phospholipid mass spectral profiles from crude lung tissue extracts. The measured DESI mass spectral lipid fingerprints were then analyzed by unsupervised learning principal components analysis (PCA). This combined approach was used to differentiate the effect(s) of two vaccination routes on lipid composition in mouse lungs. Specifically, the two vaccination routes compared were intranasal (i.n.) and intradermal (i.d.) inoculation of the Francisella tularensis live vaccine strain (Ft-LVS). Lung samples of control and LVS-inoculated mice were quickly extracted with a methanol/chloroform solution, and the crude extract was directly analyzed by DESI-MS, with a total turnaround time of less than 10 min/sample. All of the measured DESI mass spectra (in both positive and negative ion mode) were compared via PCA, resulting in clear differentiation of mass spectral profiles of i.n.-inoculated mouse lung tissues from those of i.d.-inoculated and control mouse lung tissues. Lipid biomarkers responsible for sample differentiation were identified via tandem MS (MS/MS) measurements or by comparison with mass spectra of lipid standards. The DESI-MS approach described here provided a practical and rapid means to analyze tissue samples without extensive extractions and solvent changes.

Differentiation of prostate cancer from normal tissue in radical prostatectomy specimens by desorption electrospray ionization and touch spray ionization mass spectrometry.

Project description:Radical prostatectomy is a common treatment option for prostate cancer before it has spread beyond the prostate. Examination for surgical margins is performed post-operatively with positive margins reported to occur in 6.5-32% of cases. Rapid identification of cancerous tissue during surgery could improve surgical resection. Desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) is an ambient ionization method which produces mass spectra dominated by lipid signals directly from prostate tissue. With the use of multivariate statistics, these mass spectra can be used to differentiate cancerous and normal tissue. The method was applied to 100 samples from 12 human patients to create a training set of MS data. The quality of the discrimination achieved was evaluated using principal component analysis - linear discriminant analysis (PCA-LDA) and confirmed by histopathology. Cross validation (PCA-LDA) showed >95% accuracy. An even faster and more convenient method, touch spray (TS) mass spectrometry, not previously tested to differentiate diseased tissue, was also evaluated by building a similar MS data base characteristic of tumor and normal tissue. An independent set of 70 non-targeted biopsies from six patients was then used to record lipid profile data resulting in 110 data points for an evaluation dataset for TS-MS. This method gave prediction success rates measured against histopathology of 93%. These results suggest that DESI and TS could be useful in differentiating tumor and normal prostate tissue at surgical margins and that these methods should be evaluated intra-operatively.

Strain-Level Differentiation of Bacteria by Paper Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Paper spray ionization mass spectrometry (PSI-MS) is a relatively new analytical technique allowing for rapid mass spectrometric analysis of biological samples with little or no sample preparation. The expeditious nature of the analysis and minimal requirement for sample preparation make PSI-MS a promising avenue for future clinical assays with one potential application in the identification of different types of bacteria. Although past PSI-MS studies have demonstrated the ability to distinguish between bacteria of different species and morphological classes, achieving within-species strain-level differentiation has never been performed. In this report, we demonstrate the first strain-level bacterial differentiation by PSI-MS with the mammalian intestinal bacterium Oxalobacter formigenes ( Oxf). This novel application holds promising clinical significance as it could be used to differentiate between pathogenic bacteria and their harmless, commensal relatives, saving time and money in clinical diagnostics. Both whole cells and cell lysates of Oxf strains HC1 and OxWR were analyzed using the Prosolia Velox 360TM PSI source coupled to a Thermo Scientific Q Exactive high-resolution mass spectrometer with a rapid 30 s analytical method. Multivariate statistical analysis followed by examination of significant features provided for and confirmed differentiation between Oxf HC1 and OxWR. We report a panel of strain-exclusive metabolites that could serve as potential strain-indicating biomarkers.

Electrostatic Spray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry for Direct and Fast Wine Characterization.

Project description:Due to the globally existed and economically motivated adulteration including mislabeling and/or blending, fast wine characterization is important in wine industry. Herein, we developed an electrostatic spray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESTASI-MS)-based method to distinguish wines. Wine samples were directly analyzed by ESTASI-MS without any pretreatment. Microdroplets of wine were deposited on a plastic plate for analysis. The collection of each mass spectrometric datum can be accomplished in 1-2 min without any need of pretreatment to the sample, followed by principle component analysis to discriminate wines with different labels and vintages. Long-term storage of wine was simulated and characterized by utilizing the method. High-performance liquid chromatography-MS was further applied to identify the distinctive compounds in wines to indicate their difference. We found that the method can offer a strategy for quick wine analysis, which is of practical value in wine industry for wine classification and aging control.

Analysis of Pesticide Residues on Fruit Using Swab Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:The vast quantity and high variety of pesticides globally used in agriculture entails considerable risks for the environment and requires ensuring the safety of food products. Therefore, powerful analytical tools are needed to acquire qualitative and quantitative data for monitoring pesticide residues. The development of ambient ionization mass spectrometry methods in the past two decades has demonstrated numerous ways to generate ions under atmospheric conditions and simultaneously to reduce the need for extended sample preparation and circumvent chromatographic separation prior to mass analysis. Swab spray ionization enables the generation of ions directly from swabs via the application of high voltage and solvent flow. In this study, swab sampling of fruit surfaces and subsequent ionization directly from the swab in a modified electrospray ion source was employed for the screening and quantitation of pesticide residues. Aspects regarding sample collection, sampling efficacy on different surfaces, and swab background are discussed. The effect of solvent composition on pesticide-sodium adduct formation and the suppression of ionization by the background matrix have been investigated. Furthermore, a novel approach for the quantitation of pesticide residues based on depletion curve areas is presented. It is demonstrated that swab spray ionization is an effective and quick method for spectral library-based identification and the quantitative analysis of polar contact pesticide residues on food.

Rapid high mass resolution mass spectrometry using matrix-assisted ionization.

Project description:Matrix-assisted ionization (MAI) is demonstrated to be a robust and sensitive analytical method capable of analyzing proteins such as cholera toxin B-subunit and pertussis toxin mutant from conditions containing relatively high amounts of inorganic salts, buffers, and preservatives without the need for prior sample clean-up or concentration. By circumventing some of the sample preparation steps, MAI simplifies and accelerates the analytical workflow for biological samples in complex media. The benefits of multiply charged ions characteristic of electrospray ionization (ESI) and the robustness of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) can be obtained from a single method, making it well suited for analysis of proteins and other biomolecules at ultra-high resolution as demonstrated on an Orbitrap Fusion where protein subunits were resolved for which MALDI-time-of-flight failed. MAI results are compared with those obtained with ESI, MALDI, and laserspray ionization methods and fundamental commonalities discussed.

Feasibility of desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for diagnosis of oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma.

Project description:RATIONALE:Desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) has demonstrated utility in differentiating tumor from adjacent normal tissue in both urologic and neurosurgical specimens. We sought to evaluate if this technique had similar accuracy in differentiating oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) from adjacent normal epithelium due to current issues with late diagnosis of SCC in advanced stages. METHODS:Fresh frozen samples of SCC and adjacent normal tissue were obtained by surgical resection. Resections were analyzed using DESI-MS sometimes by a blinded technologist. Normative spectra were obtained for separate regions containing SCC or adjacent normal epithelium. Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant Analysis (PCA-LDA) of spectra were used to predict SCC versus normal tongue epithelium. Predictions were compared with pathology to assess accuracy in differentiating oral SCC from adjacent normal tissue. RESULTS:Initial PCA score and loading plots showed clear separation of SCC and normal epithelial tissue using DESI-MS. PCA-LDA resulted in accuracy rates of 95% for SCC versus normal and 93% for SCC, adjacent normal and normal. Additional samples were blindly analyzed with PCA-LDA pixel-by-pixel predicted classifications as SCC or normal tongue epithelial tissue and compared against histopathology. The m/z 700-900 prediction model showed a 91% accuracy rate. CONCLUSIONS:DESI-MS accurately differentiated oral SCC from adjacent normal epithelium. Classification of all typical tissue types and pixel predictions with additional classifications should increase confidence in the validation model.
