Sensitive laser desorption/ionization obtained via a sublimation-coated 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (1,5-DAN) matrix allowed dual polarity MALDI-IMS analysis on the same pixel points across the jejunal mucosal region in rat small intestine which yielded high-spatial-resolution (10 μm) ion images of several lipid species correlated with the same histological features.

A multi-institutional effort to identify and quantitate, using a systems biology approach and sophisticated mass spectrometers, all of the major - and many minor - lipid species in mammalian cells, as well as to quantitate the changes in these species in response to perturbation. The goal of their research is to better understand lipid metabolism and the active role lipids play in diabetes, stroke, cancer, arthritis, Alzheimer's and other lipid-based diseases in order to facilitate development of more effective treatments. Resources available include: LIPID MAPS publications, detailed biochemical pathways, improved protocols for lipid separation and quantification, analytical tools for determining lipid quantitation, structure drawing tools for automatically drawing lipid molecular structures in stereochemical detail, and experimental data. The LIPID MAPS organization includes six lipidomics core laboratories, each specialized in extracting, identifying, and quantifying one of the major categories of mammalian lipids: fatty acyls, glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, sterol lipids, and prenol lipids. Other core laboratories and bridge projects include bioinformatics, mass spectrometric imaging, lipid synthesis, oxidized lipids, and macrophage biology and genomics.
