Anti-Myocardial Infarction Effects of Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Extracts and Their Influence on Small Molecules in the Heart Using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Mass Spectrometry Imaging. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20194837. [PMID: 31569464 PMCID: PMC6801437 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20194837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2019] [Revised: 09/13/2019] [Accepted: 09/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata (fuzi) is the processed product of Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux tuber, and has great potential anti-myocardial infarction effects, including improving myocardial damage and energy metabolism in rats. However, the effects of Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata extracts in a rat model of myocardial infarction have not yet been fully illustrated. Herein, Radix Aconiti Lateral Preparata was used to prepare Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata extract (RAE), fuzi polysaccharides (FPS), and fuzi total alkaloid (FTA). Then, we aimed to compare the effects of RAE, FPS, and FTA in MI rats and further explore their influence on small molecules in the heart. We reported that Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata extract (RAE) and fuzi total alkaloid (FTA) significantly improved left ventricular function and structure, and reduced myocardial damage and infarct size in rats with myocardial infarction by the left anterior descending artery ligation. In contrast, fuzi polysaccharides (FPS) was less effective than RAE and FTA, indicating that alkaloids might play a major role in the treatment of myocardial infarction. Moreover, via matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization–mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI–MSI), we further showed that RAE and FTA containing alkaloids as the main common components regulated myocardial energy metabolism-related molecules and phospholipids levels and distribution patterns against myocardial infarction. In particular, it was FTA, not RAE, that could also regulate potassium ions and glutamine to play a cardioprotective role in myocardial infarction, which revealed that an appropriate dose of alkaloids generated more obvious cardiotonic effects. These findings together suggested that Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata extracts containing an appropriate dose of alkaloids as its main pharmacological active components exerted protective effects against myocardial infarction by improving myocardial energy metabolism abnormalities and changing phospholipids levels and distribution patterns to stabilize the cardiomyocyte membrane structure. Thus, RAE and FTA extracted from Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata are potential candidates for the treatment of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Shenfu injection is a popular Chinese herbal formula that has been widely used in the treatment of shock in China. AIM OF THE STUDY To investigate the effect of Shenfu injection on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic shock in rabbits. MATERIALS AND METHODS We established a septic shock model in rabbits by administering an intravenous injection of 0.6 mg/kg LPS to anesthetized rabbit, and 15 min after LPS challenge, the rabbits were intravenously administered the Shenfu injection. In these in vivo experiments, the jugular vein of the rabbits was cannulated for LPS and drug administration, and the right common carotid artery was cannulated to record the mean arterial pressure (MAP) over a 6-h period. In addition, various serum biochemical parameters, including lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), glutamate transaminase (ALT), creatinine (Cre), and urea nitrogen (Urea), were measured at 0, 3, and 6 h. Serum LPS levels at 6 h were determined by the test kit. And histological changes in the heart, liver and kidney tissues were observed by HE staining. Furthermore, some related small molecules in the heart tissues were detected by MALDI-TOF-MSI. RESULTS We found that Shenfu injection can increase the MAP, decrease the serum LPS, LDH and AST levels, and improve the tissue morphology of the heart, liver and kidney in rabbits with LPS-induced septic shock. In addition, Shenfu injection can increase the contents of ATP and taurine while reducing the content of AMP in the heart tissue during septic shock. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that Shenfu injection exerts a protective effect on LPS-induced septic shock in rabbits.

Abstract
Brain slices have been the workhorse for many neuroscience labs since the pioneering work of Henry McIlwain in the 1950s. Their utility is undisputed and their acceptance as appropriate models for the central nervous system is widespread, if not universal. However, the skeleton in the closet is that ATP levels in brain slices are lower than those found in vivo, which may have important implications for cellular physiology and plasticity. Far from this being a disadvantage, the ATP-impoverished slice can serve as a useful and experimentally-tractable surrogate for the injured brain, which experiences similar depletion of cellular ATP. We have shown that the restoration of cellular ATP in brain slices to in vivo values is possible with a simple combination of D-ribose and adenine (RibAde), two substrates for ATP synthesis. Restoration of ATP in slices to physiological levels has implications for synaptic transmission and plasticity, whilst in the injured brain in vivo RibAde shows encouraging positive results. Given that ribose, adenine, and a third compound, allopurinol, are all separately in use in man, their combined application after acute brain injury, in accelerating ATP synthesis and increasing the reservoir of the neuroprotective metabolite, adenosine, may help reduce the morbidity associated with stroke and traumatic brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, the harm of new-type drug, methamphetamine (METH), has gradually exceeded that of the traditional opioid drugs, and METH abuse has become a serious public health and social problem. In our previous study, complement factor H (CFH) was found to be upregulated in the sera of METH-addicted patients and rats and in certain brain regions in the rats. METHODS We used ELISA and immunofluorescence to confirm the changes in CFH in the serum and hippocampus of a METH behavioral sensitization mouse model, and C1q expression was also detected by immunofluorescence in the hippocampus. We aimed to elucidate the involvement of CFH and C1q in the mechanism of METH addiction. We also detected the distribution of various small molecules by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) in select brain regions: the nucleus accumbens, the hippocampus and the ventral tegmental area. RESULTS The expression of CFH was upregulated in the serum and hippocampus of METH behavioral sensitization model mice, consistent with our previous research on conditioned place preference rats. In contrast, C1q decreased dramatically in the mossy fibers of the hippocampus. The results of small-molecule imaging by MALDI-MSI showed that the levels of K+, antioxidants, neurotransmitters, and ATP metabolism-related molecules were altered in different regions. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate the involvement of the complement system in the mechanism of METH addiction and validate the presence of oxidative stress, energy metabolism changes during addiction. This suggests the utility of further investigation into the above aspects.

Abstract
Methamphetamine (METH) has already been a serious problem all over the world. The identification of related biomarkers and pathways is helpful to evaluate the degree of METH addiction, develop appropriate treatment during abstinence, and explore the mechanism. Here, it is the first time to perform metabolomics profiling of METH addicted human serum and three regions of METH-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) rat brain by using UHPLC-MS/MS and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI), respectively. Untargeted metabolomics analysis demonstrated clear differences between METH abusers and the healthy control by finding 35 distinct expressed metabolites in serum, including 5 TCA intermediates, 17 amino acids and 13 other biomolecules, 15 of which were newly identified following METH exposure. By using MALDI-MSI, the relative quantification and distribution of 14 metabolites were investigated in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), dorsal hippocampus (dHPC) and ventral hippocampus (vHPC) of CPP rat brain. Taken together, METH addiction could influence energy metabolism, amino acids metabolism, and phospholipids metabolism. A multi-parameter model consisting of these related metabolites can be established as a METH addiction biomarker in the future. The mapping of phospholipids provided new insights into the mechanism of METH addiction. Notably, the trend of metabolite changes in NAc and dHPC was almost the same, while it was opposite between dHPC and vHPC. It seems that NAc and dHPC were the two regions more susceptible to METH administration in the brain. And dHPC and vHPC play different roles in METH addiction proved by metabolites mapping. To explore the mechanism of METH addiction, the metabolomics profiling of METH addicted human serum and rat brain were performed using UHPLC-MS/MS and MALDI-MSI, respectively. 35 differentially expressed metabolites were identified in the serum.![]()

Abstract
RATIONALE In-source decay (ISD) matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation (MALDI) mass spectrometry with a 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (1,5-DAN) matrix is used for the structural characterisation of peptides. However, MALDI spectra are intrinsically complicated by the presence of matrix ions, which interfere with the peptide fragments. This may cause false-positive results or reduced sequence coverage. This paper reports investigations of ISD processes in an intermediate pressure MALDI ion source and a protocol for the removal of interfering ions using ion mobility separation (IMS). METHODS An intermediate pressure MALDI source of a Q-IMS-Q-TOF instrument (Synapt G2) has been employed for the ISD of selected peptides using a 1,5-DAN matrix. RESULTS Successful coupling of the MALDI source tuned for ISD experiments using IMS is demonstrated. The IMS made it possible to remove interfering matrix ions effectively from the spectra and thus to increase the confidence of spectral interpretation. Extensive fragment series corresponding to N-Cα bond cleavages were observed under optimised conditions; on the other hand, weaker series of ions caused by peptide bond cleavages were prevalent for default conditions and/or the α-hydroxycinnamic acid matrix. CONCLUSIONS Ion mobility has been used for the elimination of matrix ions. The technique has been applied to top-down sequencing of non-tryptic peptides, such as the human palmitoylated analogue of prolactin-releasing peptide used in recent obesity studies, and human and insect antimicrobial peptides.

Abstract
It is crucial but of a great challenge to study in vivo and in situ drug release of nanocarriers when developing a nanomaterial-based drug delivery platform. We developed a new label-free laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MS) imaging strategy that enabled visualization and quantification of the in situ drug release in tissues by monitoring intrinsic MS signal intensity ratio of loaded drug over the nanocarriers. The proof of concept was demonstrated by investigating the doxorubicin (DOX)/polyethylene glycol-MoS2 nanosheets drug delivery system in tumor mouse models. The results revealed a tissue-dependent release behavior of DOX during circulation with the highest dissociation in tumor and lowest dissociation in liver tissues. The drug-loaded MoS2 nanocarriers are predominantly distributed in lung, spleen, and liver tissues, whereas the accumulation in the tumor was unexpectedly lower than in normal tissues. This new strategy could also be extended to other drug-carrier systems, such as carbon nanotubes and black phosphorus nanosheets, and opened a new path to evaluate the drug release of nanocarriers in the suborgan level.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is an excellent analytical technique for rapid and sensitive analysis of macromolecules such as polymers and proteins. However, the main drawback of MALDI-TOF MS is its difficulty to detect small molecules with mass below 700 Da because of the intensive interference from MALDI matrix in the low mass region. In recent years there has been considerable interest in developing matrix-free laser desorption/ionization by using nanostructured substrates to substitute the conventional organic matrices, which is often referred as surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF MS). Despite these attractive features, most of the current SALDI-TOF MS for the analysis of small molecules employ positive ion mode, which is subjected to produce multiple alkali metal adducts, and thus increases the complexity of the analysis. Different from the complicated adducts produced in positive ion mode, mass spectra obtained in negative ion mode are featured by deprotonated ion peaks without matrix interference, which simplifies the interpretation of mass spectra and detection of unknown. In this review, we critically survey recent advances in nanostructured substrates for negative ion LDI-TOF MS analysis of small molecules in the last 5 years. Special emphasis is placed on the preparation of the nanostructured substrates and the results achieved in negative ion SALDI-MS. In addition, a variety of promising applications including environmental, biological, and clinical analysis are introduced. The ionization mechanism of negative ionization is briefly discussed.

Abstract
Matrix interference ions in low mass range has always been a concern when using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) to analyze small molecules (<500 Da). In this work, a novel matrix, N1,N4-dibenzylidenebenzene-1,4-diamine (DBDA) was synthesized for the analyses of small molecules by negative ion MALDI-TOF MS. Notably, only neat ions ([M-H]-) of fatty acids without matrix interference appeared in the mass spectra and the limit of detection (LOD) reached 0.3 fmol. DBDA also has great performance towards other small molecules such as amino acids, peptides, and nucleotide. Furthermore, with this novel matrix, the free fatty acids in serum were quantitatively analyzed based on the correlation curves with correlation coefficient of 0.99. In addition, UV-Vis experiments and molecular orbital calculations were performed to explore mechanism about DBDA used as matrix in the negative ion mode. The present work shows that the DBDA matrix is a highly sensitive matrix with few interference ions for analysis of small molecules. Meanwhile, DBDA is able to precisely quantify the fatty acids in real biological samples. Graphical Abstract ᅟ.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In-situ detection and in particular comprehensive analysis of small molecule metabolites (SMMs, m/z < 500) using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI MSI) remain a challenge, mainly due to ion suppression effects from more abundant molecules in tissue section like lipids. OBJECTIVE A strategy based on organic washes to remove most ionization-suppressing lipids from tissue section was firstly explored for improved analysis of SMMs by MALDI MSI. METHODS The tissue sections after rinse with different organic solvents were analyzed by MALDI MSI, and the results were compared for the optimized washing conditions. RESULTS The rinse with chloroform for 15 s at - 20 °C significantly removed most glycerophospholipids and glycerolipids from tissue section. Consequentially, ATP-related energy metabolites, amino acids and derivatives, glucose derivatives, glycolysis pathway metabolites and other SMMs were able to be well-visualized with enhanced ion intensity and good reproducibility. The organic washes-based MALDI MSI was applied to the metabolic pathway analysis in rat brain following status epilepticus (SE) model, which was, as far as we know, the first report about in-situ detection of a broad range of metabolites in the model of SE by MALDI MSI technique. The alterations of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP), inosine, glutamine, glutathione, taurine and spermine during SE were observed. CONCLUSION A simple organic washing protocol enables comprehensive analysis of tissue SMMs in MALDI MSI by removing ionization-suppressing lipids. The application in the SE model indicates that MALDI MSI analysis potentially provides new insight for understanding the disease mechanism.

Abstract
Due to its strong ultraviolet absorption, low background interference in the small molecular range, and salt tolerance capacity, N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine (PNA) was developed as a novel matrix in the present study for analysis and imaging of small molecules by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry time-of-fight (MALDI-TOF MS). The newly developed matrix displayed good performance in analysis of a wide range of small-molecule metabolites including free fatty acids, amino acids, peptides, antioxidants, and phospholipids. In addition, PNA-assisted LDI MS imaging of small molecules in brain tissue of rats subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) revealed unique distributions and changes of 89 small-molecule metabolites including amino acids, antioxidants, free fatty acids, phospholipids, and sphingolipids in brain tissue 24 h postsurgery. Fifty-nine of the altered metabolites were identified, and all the changed metabolites were subject to relative quantitation and statistical analysis. The newly developed matrix has great potential application in the field of biomedical research.

Abstract
Dl-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) is a drug that is used in the treatment of ischaemic stroke. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no systematic studies investigating the effects of dl-3-n-butylphtalide on the brain metabolism of small molecules. In this study, we first investigated the effects of dl-3-n-butylphthalide on the spatial distribution of small molecules in the brains of rats with permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI–TOF–MS) imaging. After pMCAO modelling or a sham operation, rats were given four mg/kg of dl-3-n-butylphthalide through the caudal vein or saline once a day for nine days. The degree of neurological deficit in rats was evaluated using the modified neurological severity score (mNSS). MALDI–TOF–MS imaging was used to observe the content and distribution of small molecules related to metabolism during focal cerebral ischaemia. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) was used to verify the results obtained from MALDI–TOF–MS imaging. These small molecules were found to be involved in glucose metabolism, ATP metabolism, the glutamate–glutamine cycle, malate aspartate shuttle, oxidative stress, and inorganic ion homeostasis. Of the 13 metabolites identified by MALDI–TOF–MS imaging, seven compounds, ATP, ADP, AMP, GMP, N-acetylaspartic acid, ascorbic acid and glutathione, were further validated by LC–MS/MS. Taken together, these results indicate that dl-3-n-butylphthalide significantly improved ATP metabolism, level of antioxidants, and sodium-potassium ion balance in a rat model of pMCAO.

Abstract
In matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) analysis and imaging of lipids, comprehensive ionization of lipids simultaneously by a universal matrix is a very challenging problem. Ion suppression of readily ionizable lipids to others is common. To overcome this obstacle and enhance the coverage of MALDI MS analysis and imaging of lipids, we developed a novel strategy employing a mixture of matrices, each of which is capable of selective ionization of different lipid classes. Given that MALDI MS with either 9-aminoacridine (9-AA) or N-(1-naphthyl) ethylenediamine dihydrochloride (NEDC) yields weak in-source decay which is critical for analysis of complex biological samples and possesses orthogonal selectivity for ionization of lipid classes, we tested the mixtures of NEDC and 9-AA with different ratios for analysis of standard lipids and mouse brain lipid extracts. We determined 1.35 of NEDC/9-AA as an optimized molar ratio. It was demonstrated that an enhanced coverage with the optimized mixture was obtained, which enabled us to analyze and map all the major classes of phospholipids and sulfatide from either lipid extracts or tissue slides, respectively. We believe that this powerful novel strategy can enhance lipidomics analysis and MALDI MS imaging of lipids in a high-throughput and semi-quantitative fashion.

Abstract
Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion is a pathological state that is associated with the cognitive impairments in vascular dementia. Oxiracetam is a nootropic drug that is commonly used to treat cognitive deficits of cerebrovascular origins. However, oxiracetam is currently used as a racemic mixture whose effective ingredient has not been identified to date. In this study, we first identified that (S)-oxiracetam, but not (R)-oxiracetam, was the effective ingredient that alleviated the impairments of spatial learning and memory by ameliorating neuron damage and white matter lesions, increasing the cerebral blood flow, and inhibiting astrocyte activation in chronic cerebral hypoperfused rats. Furthermore, using MALDI-MSI and LC-MS/MS, we demonstrated that (S)-oxiracetam regulated ATP metabolism, glutamine-glutamate and anti-oxidants in the cortex region of hypoperfused rats. Altogether, our results strongly suggest that (S)-oxiracetam alone could be a nootropic drug for the treatment of cognitive impairments caused by cerebral hypoperfusion.

Abstract
Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) allows the study of the spatial distribution of small molecules in biological samples. IMS is able to identify and quantify chemicals in situ from whole tissue sections to single cells. Both vacuum mass spectrometry (MS) and ambient MS systems have advanced considerably over the last decade; however, some limitations are still hard to surmount. Sample pretreatment, matrix or solvent choices, and instrument improvement are the key factors that determine the successful application of IMS to different samples and analytes. IMS with innovative MS analyzers, powerful MS spectrum databases, and analysis tools can efficiently dereplicate, identify, and quantify natural products. Moreover, multimodal imaging systems and multiple MS-based systems provide additional structural, chemical, and morphological information and are applied as complementary tools to explore new fields. IMS has been applied to reveal interactions between living organisms at molecular level. Recently, IMS has helped solve many previously unidentifiable relations between bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, and insects. Other significant interactions on the chemical level can also be resolved using expanding IMS techniques.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a serious threat to the quality of human life and health with an increasing incidence worldwide. Renal fibrosis is closely related to CKD and regarded as the final common pathophysiological pathway in most cases of end-stage renal diseases. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying renal fibrosis and developing novel therapeutic strategies are of great importance. Herein, matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI MSI) based on 1, 5-diaminonaphthalene hydrochloride was applied to the rat model of unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) to investigate metabolic changes during renal fibrosis. Among identified endogenous compounds, twenty-one metabolites involved in metabolic networks such as glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, ATP metabolism, fatty acids metabolism, antioxidants, and metal ions underwent relatively obvious changes after 1 and 3 weeks of UUO. Unique distribution of the metabolites was obtained, and metabolic changes of kidneys during renal fibrosis were investigated simultaneously for the first time. These findings once again highlighted the promising potential of the organic salt matrix for application in small molecule in situ MSI and in the field of biomedical research.

Abstract
MALDI MSI has been recently applied as an innovative tool for detection of molecular distribution within a specific tissue. MALDI MSI requires deposition of an organic compound, known as matrix, on the tissue of interest to assist analyte desorption and ionization, in which the matrix crystal homogeneity and size greatly influence the imaging reproducibility and spatial resolution in MALDI MSI. In this work, a homemade electrospray deposition device was developed for deposition of matrix in MALDI MSI. The device could be used to achieve 1 μm homogeneous matrix crystals in MALDI MSI analysis. Moreover, it was found, for the first time, that the electrospray deposition device could be used to precisely control the matrix crystal size, and the imaging spatial resolution was increased greatly as the matrix crystals size becoming smaller. In addition, the easily-built electrospray deposition device was durable for acid, base or organic solvent, and even could be used for deposition of nanoparticles matrix, which made it unparalleled for MALDI MSI analysis. The feasibility of the electrospray deposition device was investigated by combination with MALDI FTICR MSI to analyze the distributions of lipids in mouse brain and liver cancer tissue section.

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR MASS SPECTROMETRY 2016; 27:1227-1235. [PMID: 27075876 DOI: 10.1007/s13361-016-1396-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2016] [Revised: 03/14/2016] [Accepted: 03/22/2016] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
Application of matrix-assisted laser-desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) to analyze small molecules have some limitations, due to the inhomogeneous analyte/matrix co-crystallization and interference of matrix-related peaks in low m/z region. In this work, carbon dots (CDs) were for the first time applied as a binary matrix with 9-Aminoacridine (9AA) in MALDI MS for small molecules analysis. By 9AA/CDs assisted desorption/ionization (D/I) process, a wide range of small molecules, including nucleosides, amino acids, oligosaccharides, peptides, and anticancer drugs with a higher sensitivity were demonstrated in the positive ion mode. A detection limit down to 5 fmol was achieved for cytidine. 9AA/CDs matrix also exhibited excellent reproducibility compared with 9AA matrix. Moreover, by exploring the ionization mechanism of the matrix, the influence factors might be attributed to the four parts: (1) the strong UV absorption of 9AA/CDs due to their π-conjugated network; (2) the carboxyl groups modified on the CDs surface act as protonation sites for proton transfer in positive ion mode; (3) the thin layer crystal of 9AA/CDs could reach a high surface temperature more easily and lower transfer energy for LDI MS; (4) CDs could serve as a matrix additive to suppress 9AA ionization. Furthermore, this matrix was allowed for the analysis of glucose as well as nucleosides in human urine, and the level of cytidine was quantified with a linear range of 0.05-5 mM (R(2) > 0.99). Therefore, the 9AA/CDs matrix was proven to be an effective MALDI matrix for the analysis of small molecules with improved sensitivity and reproducibility. This work provides an alternative solution for small molecules detection that can be further used in complex samples analysis. Graphical Abstract ᅟ.

Abstract
Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) is a toolbox of versatile techniques that enable us to investigate analytes in samples at molecular level. In recent years, IMS, and especially matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation (MALDI), has been used to visualise a wide range of metabolites in biological samples. Simultaneous visualisation of the spatial distribution of metabolites in a single sample with little tissue disruption can be considered as one important advantage of MALDI over other techniques. However, several technical hurdles including low concentrations and rapid degradation rates of small molecule metabolites, matrix interference of signals and poor ionisation, need to be addressed before MALDI can be considered as a reliable tool for the analysis of metabolites such as neurotransmitters in brain tissues from different sources including humans. In the present review we will briefly describe current MALDI IMS techniques used to study neurotransmitters and discuss their current status, challenges, as well as future prospects.
