“…MALDI-IMS has been applied to various tissues and diseases such as cancer (Hiraide et al, 2016) and heart disease (Angel et al, 2016) and, more recently, in the brain to understand the lipid changes in alcohol-related brain damage (de la Monte et al, 2018), AD (Gónzalez de San Román, Manuel, Giralt, Ferrer, & Rodríguez-Puertas, 2017;Mendis, Grey, Faull, & Curtis, 2016), or the lipid cytoarchitecture of regions such as the subventricular zone (Hunter, Demarais, Faull, Grey, & Curtis, 2018). We have previously described a robust methodology for maximizing peptide ionization from formalin-fixed frozen human brain tissue (O'Rourke et al, 2018).…”
