Visualizing Cholesterol in the Brain by On-Tissue Derivatization and Quantitative Mass Spectrometry Imaging

چکیده

Despite being a critical molecule in the brain, mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) of cholesterol has been under-reported compared to other lipids due difficulty ionizing sterol molecule. In present work, we have employed an on-tissue enzyme-assisted derivatization strategy improve detection brain tissue sections. We report distribution and levels across specific structures mouse model Niemann-Pick type C1 disease, during development. MSI revealed that adult mouse, is highest pons medulla how its changes Cholesterol was significantly reduced corpus callosum regions Npc1 null confirming hypomyelination at molecular level. Our study demonstrates potential sterols neuroscience.

Visualizing spatial distribution of alectinib in murine brain using quantitative mass spectrometry imaging

In the development of anticancer drugs, drug concentration measurements in the target tissue have been thought to be crucial for predicting drug efficacy and safety. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is commonly used for determination of average drug concentrations; however, complete loss of spatial information in the target tissue occurs. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI)...

Sphingomyelin/phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol interactions studied by imaging mass spectrometry.

Label-free imaging mass spectrometry is utilized the first time to study lipid-lipid interactions in a model membrane system. Ternary lipid mixtures of cholesterol (CH), sphingomyelin (SM), and phosphatidylcholine (PC) on supported Langmuir-Blodgett films are investigated as a mimic of the cellular membrane. The unique chemical specificity and imaging capability allow identification and localiz...

Localization of sphingomyelin in cholesterol domains by imaging mass spectrometry.

The location of each lipid in a palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine/18:0 sphingomyelin/cholesterol monolayer system is laterally resolved using imaging time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) without the necessity of adding fluorescent labels. This system of coexisting immiscible liquid phases shows cholesterol domains with sizes and shapes comparable to those in the fluorescen...

Localization and imaging of sialylated glycosphingolipids in brain tissue sections by MALDI mass spectrometry.

In this study, we describe a simple and efficient method for mapping the distribution and localization of all sialylated sphingoglycolipids present in coronal mouse brain sections using a conventional axial matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight. A single scan of a histological tissue section gives a complete profile of ganglioside species without derivatization or labeling....

Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass/Mass Spectrometry for the Quantification of Fudosteine in Human Serum without Precolumn Derivatization

A quantitative analysis method for fudosteine in human serum by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI/MS/MS) was established, which shows high sensitivity and selectivity. The mobile phase composition was 75% 20 mM acetic acid and 25% acetonitril, which was pumped at a flow rate of 0.40 mL/min. The overall chromatographic run time was ...
