Nature Med. 7, 493-496 (2001). Description of a technology that allows for direct mapping of protein expression in a tissue section by mass spectrometry. A frozen tissue section is placed directly in a mass spectrometer and a pulsed laser desorbs and ionizes analytes from any number of regions of the tissue section and m/z values are determined by a time-of-fight analyser. A rasterized image of peak intensities for any given m/ z value can be overlayed on the tissue section to generate a three-dimensional expression map.

First report in which laser capture microdissection is coupled to SELDI-TOF mass spectrometry for proteomic fingerprinting and pattern analysis of cancer tissue. Proteomic portraits from microdissected patient-matched normal, premalignant, malignant and metastatic cell populations for a variety of cancers were shown. Consistent sets of defined protein changes were identified in the transition from normal prostatic epithelium to malignancy and specific molecular portraits of different cancer types were discovered.

The method uses an artificial-intelligence-based computer algorithm to evaluate mass spectral patterns from low-resolution high-throughput mass spectrometry and was successful in discriminating normal serum samples from those of early-stage ovarian cancer patients.
