Abstract
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) was developed to visualize spatial chemical information within tissues, thereby facilitating spatial multi-omic analysis. However, due to the limited spatial information provided by individual modal MSI, correlating various chemical data within tissues remains a significant challenge. In recent years, multimodal MSI has garnered considerable attention due to its ability to visualize the spatial distributions of multiple biomolecules within tissues. Among the strategies employed in this field, multimodal imaging on a single tissue section circumvents multiple issues introduced by integration of images of consecutive tissue sections. In this minireview, we provide an overview of multimodal MSI on a single tissue section, with a particular focus on the use of Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization–MSI for spatial multi-omic investigations that offer a comprehensive and in-depth elucidation of the biological state and activities, aiming to inspire the development of new approaches in this field.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Mass Spectrometry publishes papers on a broad range of topics of interest to scientists working in both fundamental and applied areas involving the study of gaseous ions.
The aim of JMS is to serve the scientific community with information provided and arranged to help senior investigators to better stay abreast of new discoveries and studies in their own field, to make them aware of events and developments in associated fields, and to provide students and newcomers the basic tools with which to learn fundamental and applied aspects of mass spectrometry.
