Spatial Proteomics toward Subcellular Resolution by Coupling Deep Ultraviolet Laser Ablation with Nanodroplet Sample Preparation
ACS MEASUREMENT SCIENCE AU(2023)
摘要
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 mu m 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 similar to 30 spots/min and a spatial resolution down to 2 mu m from a 10 mu m 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 mu m, 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.
