Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has gone through a significant change over the last 3
years, the time span of this review. The predominant mass spectrometric method in …

Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has proven to be extremely useful for applications such as
the spatial analysis of peptides and proteins in biological tissue, the performance …

The skeletal muscle is a highly heterogeneous tissue comprised of different fiber types with
varying contractile and metabolic properties. The complexity in the analysis of skeletal …

Mass spectrometric analysis of cellular lipids is an enabling technology for lipidomics, which
is a rapidly-developing research field. In this review, we briefly discuss the principles …

Skeletal muscle can store excess fat as subcellular lipid droplets (LDs). While originally
viewed as uninteresting static balls of triacylglycerol, it is now clear that myocellular LDs play …

The toxic flatworm, Planocera multitentaculata, possesses highly concentrated tetrodotoxin
(TTX), also known as pufferfish toxin, throughout its life cycle, including the egg and larval …

Although it is clear that lipids are responsible for insulin resistance, it is poorly understood
what types of lipids are involved. In this study, we verified the characteristic lipid species in …

Key points Long‐chain acyl‐CoA synthetase 6 (ACSL6) mRNA is present in human and rat
skeletal muscle, and is modulated by nutritional status: exercise and fasting decrease …

As the only imaging method available, Imaging Mass Spectrometry (IMS) can determine
both the identity and the distribution of hundreds of molecules on tissue sections, all in one …

Aging induces drastic changes in muscle mass and function (sarcopenia); however, the
detailed mechanisms underlying sarcopenia remain poorly understood. Recent studies …
