Project description:Here we present an approach to identify N-linked glycoproteins and deduce their spatial localization using a combination of MALDI N-glycan MSI and spatially-resolved glycoproteomics. We subjected glioma biopsies to on-tissue PNGaseF digestion and MALDI-MSI and found that the glycan HexNAc4-Hex5-NeuAc2 was predominantly expressed in necrotic regions of high-grade canine gliomas. To determine the underlying sialo-glycoprotein, various regions in adjacent tissue sections were subjected to microdigestion and manual glycoproteomic analysis. Results identified haptoglobin as the protein associated with HexNAc4-Hex5-NeuAc2, making our study the first report that directly links glycan imaging with intact glycopeptide identification. In total, our spatially-resolved glycoproteomics technique identified over 400 N-, O-, and S- glycopeptides from over 30 proteins, demonstrating the diverse array of glycosylation present on the tissue slides and the sensitivity of our technique. Ultimately, this proof-of-principle work demonstrates that spatially-resolved glycoproteomics greatly complement MALDI-MSI in understanding dysregulated glycosylation.

Project description:Utilizing multimodal mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) combined with machine learning techniques, this study investigates the molecular heterogeneity of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and associated lipid profiles in post-mortem brain samples from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and amyloid-positive cognitively unaffected (AP-CU) individuals. Our analytical approach permitted single-plaque level investigation, revealing distinct populations of amyloid plaques characterized by differential Aβ and lipid compositions. Notably, the integration of MSI data with machine learning based feature extraction enabled the identification of Aβ38 and ganglioside GM1 as significant molecular markers differentiating AD from AP-CU pathology. These findings suggest that the heterogeneity in Aβ metabolism and lipid homeostasis, as revealed through precise analysis, is a key factor in the pathogenesis of AD and implies that total amyloid burden alone is an insufficient marker for the disease. The application of MSI and machine learning based feature extraction in this context exemplifies a progressive analytic strategy to unravel complex biochemical phenomena, offering potential pathways for the refinement of diagnostic tools and deepening the understanding of neurodegenerative diseases from an analytical chemistry perspective.

Project description:Bufotoxin is an endogenous toxin made up of several physiologically active components that toads deploy as a defense against their natural enemies. Bufadienolides (BDS), which is isolated from bufotoxin, is an important anticancer drug, and other components such as bufotenine and alkaloids are also important drug resources. The distribution characteristics and biosynthesis of bufotoxins in the postauricular glands (PGs) of toads are not well understood. We examined the toad's PGs using the MADLI/MSI technique, a total of 1,872 components were found, and some pharmacological components were visible. These findings indicate that bufotoxins are primarily abundant in the plasma glands (pG) and epidermal tissues of the glands. By using single-cell sequencing, it was possible to create a single-cell atlas of 9316 PGs cells. These cells were then categorized into nine clusters using marker genes, and two types of epithelial cells were verified using in situ hybridization investigations. It was confirmed that cholesterol is a precursor component of BDS biosynthesis, we concentrated on the cholesterol metabolism component and postulated the primary bile acid pathway as a downstream biosynthesis pathway of BDS through transcriptomic studies of two pG and mucous glands (MG) with distinct secretory functions. Optimal and silenced genes for potential BDS synthesis pathways, toad toxin tryptamine and alkaloid biosynthesis, terpene skeleton and steroid hormones were identified by calculating the cellular coverage of genes. Our data demonstrate the metabolic mapping of bufotoxins in the PGs of the toad, and create the first single-cell atlas of PGs in the toad, providing a reference for the study of biosynthesis of natural active ingredients in animals.

Project description:Soy-based diets are associated with increased seizures and autism. Thus, there is an acute need for unbiased protein biomarker identification in Fragile X syndrome (FXS) in response to soy consumption. Herein, we present a spatial proteomics approach integrating mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) with label-free proteomics in a mouse model of FXS to map the spatial distribution and quantify the levels of proteins in the hippocampus and hypothalamus brain regions. In total, 1,250 unique peptides were spatially resolved, demonstrating the diverse array of peptidomes present in the tissue slices and the broad coverage of the strategy. A group of proteins that are known to be involved in glycolysis and synaptic transmission has been identified. The co-expression network analysis indicated that proteins in the soy-based diet group were significantly associated with metabolism and synapse modules in the Fmr1KO brain. Ultimately, this spatial proteomics work is a step toward identifying potential candidate protein markers and novel therapeutic targets for FXS

Project description:Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) can analyze the spatial distribution of hundreds of different molecules directly from tis-sue sections usually placed on conductive glass slides to provide conductivity on the sample surface. Additional experiments are often required for molecular identification using consecutive sections on membrane slides compatible with laser capture microdissection (LMD). In this work, we demonstrate for the first time the use of a single conductive slide for both matrix assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI)-MSI and direct proteomics. In this workflow, regions of interest can be directly ablated with LMD while preserving protein integrity. These results offer an alternative for MSI based multimodal spatial-omics.

Project description:Background: Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is a precursor lesion of esophageal adenocarcinoma and may progress from non-dysplastic through low-grade dysplasia (LGD) to high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and cancer. Grading BE is of crucial prognostic value and is currently based on the subjective evaluation of biopsies. This study aims to investigate the potential of machine learning (ML) using spatially resolved molecular data from mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) and histological data from microscopic haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained imaging for computer-aided diagnosis and prognosis of BE. Methods: Biopsies from 57 patients were considered, divided into non-dysplastic (n=15), LGD non-progressive (n=14), LGD progressive (n=14), and HGD (n=14). MSI experiments were conducted at 50x50 μm spatial resolution per pixel corresponding to a tile size of 96x96 pixels in the co-registered H&E images, making a total of 144,823 tiles for the whole dataset. Results: ML models were trained to distinguish epithelial tissue from stroma with area-under-the-curve (AUC) values of 0.89 (MSI) and 0.95 (H&E)) and dysplastic grade (AUC of 0.97 (MSI) and 0.85 (H&E)) on a tile level, and low-grade progressors from non-progressors on a patient level (accuracies of 0.72 (MSI) and 0.48 (H&E)). Conclusions: In summary, while the H&E-based classifier was best at distinguishing tissue types, the MSI-based model was more accurate at distinguishing dysplastic grades and patients at progression risk, which demonstrates the complementarity of both approaches.

Project description:Aberrant protease activity has been implicated in the etiology of various prevalent diseases including neurodegeneration and cancer, in particular metastasis. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has recently been established as a key technology for bioanalysis of multiple biomolecular classes such as proteins, lipids, and glycans. However, it has not yet been systematically explored for investigation of a tissue’s endogenous protease activity. In this study, we demonstrate that different tissues, spray-coated with substance P as a tracer, digest this peptide with different time-course profiles. Furthermore, we reveal that distinct cleavage products originating from substance P are generated transiently and that proteolysis can be attenuated by protease inhibitors in a concentration-dependent manner. To show the translational potential of the method, we analyzed protease activity of gastric carcinoma in mice. Our MSI and quantitative proteomics results reveal differential distribution of protease activity – with strongest activity being observed in mouse tumor tissue, suggesting the general applicability of the workflow in animal pharmacology and clinical studies.Aberrant protease activity has been implicated in the etiology of various prevalent diseases including neurodegeneration and cancer, in particular metastasis.

Project description:Introduction The identification of proteins involved in brain ischemia might allow the discovery of new putative biomarkers or potential therapeutic target of one of the most important neurological disorders. MALDI Imaging-Mass-Spectrometry (IMS) is a powerful technique that allows the visualization of protein distribution along a tissue without labeling. Our aim is to study the distribution of proteins along mouse brain after an ischemic insult and to identify relevant proteins involved in brain ischemia. Materials and methods We occluded the middle cerebral artery (60min) of C57BL/6J mice (n=4) with 24h of reperfusion. Brain slices were analyzed by MALDI-TOF and mass spectra from infarct (IC) and contralateral (CL) regions were compared using ClinProTools. Relevant m/z were selected after PCA analysis and their ion distribution maps were analyzed by FlexImagin3.0. Protein identification was conducted on mouse brain homogenates through a bottom-up approach consisting on complementary fractionations based on tricine gels and RP-HPLC. The identifications were confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Results We identified 102 m/z with different abundances between IC and CL (p<0.05), from which 21 m/z were selected by PCA as more relevant. Thirteen of them were found increased in the infarct region and 4 m/z showed a discrimination higher than 90% between IC and CL. After bottom-up identification, immunohistochemistry analysis confirmed increased ATP5i and COX6C expressions, and decreased UMP-CMP kinase in IC compared to CL. Conclusions We identified for the first time by MALDI-IMS several m/z peaks with different abundances between IC and CL. These proteins involved in brain ischemia might represent potential diagnostic biomarkers or target molecules for neurological recovery.

Project description:There are no widely-accepted prognostic markers currently available to predict outcomes in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and no targeted therapies with confirmed benefit. We have used MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) of tryptic peptides to compare regions of cancer and benign tissue in 10 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of TNBC tumors. Proteins were identified by reference to a peptide library constructed by LC-MALDI-MS/MS analyses of the same tissues. The prognostic significance of proteins that distinguished between cancer and benign regions was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis of their gene expression from public databases. Among peptides that distinguished between cancer and benign tissue in at least 3 tissues with a ROC area under the curve >0.7, 14 represented proteins identified from the reference library, including proteins not previously associated with breast cancer. Initial network analysis using the STRING database showed no obvious functional relationships except among collagen subunits COL1A1, COL1A2, and COL63A, but manual curation, including the addition of EGFR to the analysis, revealed a unique network connecting 10 of the 14 proteins. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to examine the relationship between tumor expression of genes encoding the 14 proteins, and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with basal-like TNBC showed that, compared to low expression, high expression of nine of the genes was associated with significantly worse RFS, most with hazard ratios >2. In contrast, in estrogen receptor-positive tumors, high expression of these genes showed only low, or no, association with worse RFS. These proteins are proposed as putative markers of RFS in TNBC, and some may also be considered as possible targets for future therapies.

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI) is the most common cause of death worldwide. Timely diagnosis and early restoration of the blood flow prevents further tissue damage. However, this sudden reperfusion can also lead to so-called ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Although the different pathological processes activated in I/R injury, like cell death and inflammation have been previously addressed, the exact pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. For the development of strategies that minimize myocardial damage a better understanding of the underlying alterations in protein and signaling pathways is required. In this study we aim to identify the protein signature of cardiac I/R injury, therefore we use a spatialOMx approach, combining protein mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) and a classical label-free proteomics workflow on the same tissue section, to further address the observed alterations
