Abstract
Multiplexed molecular profiling of tissue microenvironments, or spatial omics, can provide critical insights into cellular functions and disease pathology. The coupling of laser microdissection with mass spectrometry-based proteomics has enabled deep and unbiased mapping of >1000 proteins. However, the throughput of laser microdissection is often limited due to tedious two-step procedures, sequential laser cutting, and sample collection. The two-step procedure also hinders the further improvement of spatial resolution to <10 μm as needed for subcellular proteomics. Herein, we developed a high-throughput and high-resolution spatial proteomics platform by seamlessly coupling deep ultraviolet (DUV) laser ablation (LA) with nanoPOTS (Nanodroplet Processing in One pot for Trace Samples)-based sample preparation. We demonstrated the DUV-LA system can quickly isolate and collect tissue samples at a throughput of ∼30 spots/min and a spatial resolution down to 2 μm from a 10 μm thick human pancreas tissue section. To improve sample recovery, we developed a proximity aerosol collection approach by placing DMSO droplets close to LA spots. We demonstrated the DUV-LA-nanoPOTS platform can detect an average of 1312, 1533, and 1966 proteins from ablation spots with diameters of 7, 13, and 19 μm, respectively. In a proof-of-concept study, we isolated and profiled two distinct subcellular regions of the pancreas tissue revealed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Quantitative proteomics revealed proteins specifically enriched to subcellular compartments.
