The Role of Mass Spectrometry Imaging in Studying Tumor Metabolism

The Role of Mass Spectrometry Imaging in Studying Tumor Metabolism  content piece image

In tumors, metabolic shifts cause increased glucose uptake and fermentation. Traditionally, bulk analysis has been used to measure tumor metabolism, however, all tumors show some heterogeneity, and only an average measurement is produced by bulk analysis. 

 

The advent of MALDI Imaging is thus a major advancement in cancer biology, as the metabolism of different clones can be measured in situ.
