INTRODUCTION
Recently, imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) has emerged as a powerful technique to visualize spatial distributions of various molecules in situ. In the present study, we aimed to analyze changes of lipid composition characteristic with time in the spinal cord of an ALS mouse model using IMS.
METHODS
Animal experiment protocols were approved by the Ethical Committee of the Hamamatsu University School of Medicine. Female SOD1G93A mice were used as ALS models and their littermates were used as controls. Lumbar spinal cords were collected from 5 before onset), 10(early stage after onset), and 22 weeks (terminal stage after onset) old mice, respectively. Ten micrometer-thick frozen sections of L5 lumbar spinal cords were assessed by IMS, visualizing molecular species of phosphatidylcholine (PC).
RESULTS
The IMS results showed significant decrease of docosahexaenoic acid such as (DHA)-containing PCs, PC (diacyl-16:0/22:6), PC (diacyl-18:0/22:6), and PC (diacyl-18:1/22:6) in the L5 anterior horns of 22 week-old SOD1 G93A mice. PC (diacyl-16:0/16:0) was observed specifically in the L5 dorsal horn grey matter irrespective to age and genotype. There were no significant difference in the spatiotemporal distribution of arachidonic acid-containing PCs between groups.
DISCUSSION
Our data revealed a significant decrease in DHA-containing PCs at the terminal stage of ALS mice, which may reflect neuronal loss in the anterior horns of the spinal cords in ALS mice. The preservation of PC (diacyl-16:0/16:0), which was specifically distributed in the dorsal horn, suggested that the afferent nerves in the lumbar spinal cords were not affected in ALS mice. These findings indicate that ALS spinal cord may show significant alterations in PC metabolism only at the terminal stage of disease.
