Multimodal mass spectrometry imaging identifies cell-type-specific metabolic and lipidomic variation in the mammalian liver
DEVELOPMENTAL CELL(2024)
Abstract
Spatial single -cell omics provides a readout of biochemical processes. It is challenging to capture the transient lipidome/metabolome from cells in a native tissue environment. We employed water gas cluster ion beam secondary ion mass spectrometry imaging ([H 2 O]( n>28K )-GCIB-SIMS) at %3 mm resolution using a cryogenic imaging workflow. This allowed multiple biomolecular imaging modes on the near -native -state liver at single -cell resolution. Our workflow utilizes desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) to build a reference map of metabolic heterogeneity and zonation across liver functional units at tissue level. Cryogenic dualSIMS integrated metabolomics, lipidomics, and proteomics in the same liver lobules at single -cell level, characterizing the cellular landscape and metabolic states in different cell types. Lipids and metabolites classified liver metabolic zones, cell types and subtypes, highlighting the power of spatial multi-omics at high spatial resolution for understanding celluar and biomolecular organizations in the mammalian liver.
