Abstract

Whole-tissue level spatial proteomics provides critical insights into region-specific biological regulations but remains challenging. Previously, we introduced the micro-scaffold assisted spatial proteomics (MASP) concept for whole-tissue mapping. However, this prototype required substantial development in spatial resolution, practicality, and throughput for practical application. Here we present a next-generation MASP technique (hex-MASP) featuring i) a new design of hexagonal-micro-wells fabricated with optimized projection micro-stereolithography 3D-printing, achieving high spatial resolution, sampling robustness, and mechanical strength for reproducibly compartmentalizing even tough tissues; ii) enhanced throughput/effectiveness in sample preparation and LC–MS analysis with high quantitative quality. Applied to mouse brain, hex-MASP achieved in-depth, whole-tissue mapping for >6,000 proteins in mouse brains, with high spatial accuracy and excellent data quality. The substantially improved resolution revealed critical regional details across the entire brain, that were not previously captured, enabling precise depiction of protein distribution heterogeneity. This technique enabled the identification of many unreported regionally enriched proteins across brain structures. We further applied hex-MASP to investigate the intrabrain distribution of intracerebroventricularly dosed antibody therapeutics and related proteins, which enabled whole-tissue mapping of protein drugs revealed insights into antibody brain penetration and distribution. Hex-MASP represents a robust, scalable platform for whole-tissue spatial proteomics.

Tracing map

Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.

What the map holds:

  • 1 repository of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
  • 8 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
  • 2 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
  • neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.

Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.

Data
