RESUMO

The application of innovative spatial proteomics techniques, such as those based upon matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) technology, has the potential to impact research in the field of nephropathology. Notwithstanding, the possibility to apply this technology in more routine diagnostic contexts remains limited by the alternative fixatives employed by this ultraspecialized diagnostic field, where most nephropathology laboratories worldwide use bouin-fixed paraffin-embedded (BFPE) samples. Here, the feasibility of performing MALDI-MSI on BFPE renal tissue is explored, evaluating variability within the trypsin-digested proteome as a result of different preanalytical conditions and comparing them with the more standardized formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) counterparts. A large proportion of the features (270, 68.9%) was detected in both BFPE and FFPE renal samples, demonstrating only limited variability in signal intensity (10.22-10.06%). Samples processed with either fixative were able to discriminate the principal parenchyma regions along with diverse renal substructures, such as glomeruli, tubules, and vessels. This was observed when performing an additional "stress test", showing comparable results in both BFPE and FFPE samples when the distribution of several amyloid fingerprint proteins was mapped. These results suggest the utility of BFPE tissue specimens in MSI-based nephropathology research, further widening their application in this field.

RESUMO

Blood serves as the primary global biological matrix for health surveillance, disease diagnosis, and response to drug treatment, holding significant promise for personalized medicine. The diverse array of lipids and metabolites in the blood provides a snapshot of both physiological and pathological processes, with many routinely monitored during conventional wellness checks. The conventional method involves intravenous blood collection, extracting a few milliliters via venipuncture, a technique limited to clinical settings due to its dependence on trained personnel. Microsampling methods have evolved to be less invasive (collecting ≤150 µL of capillary blood), user-friendly (enabling self-collection), and suitable for remote collection in longitudinal studies. Dried blood spot (DBS), a pioneering microsampling technique, dominates clinical and research domains. Recent advancements in device technology address critical limitations of classical DBS, specifically variations in hematocrit and volume. This review presents a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art microsampling devices, emphasizing their applications and potential for monitoring metabolites and lipids in blood. The scope extends to diverse areas, encompassing population studies, nutritional investigations, drug discovery, sports medicine, and multi-omics research.
