Abstract

Hydrogel-based tissue expansion combined with mass spectrometry (MS) offers an emerging spatial proteomics approach. Here, we present a filter-aided expansion proteomics (FAXP) strategy for spatial proteomics analysis of archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens. Compared to our previous ProteomEx method, FAXP employed a customized tip device to enhance both the stability and throughput of sample preparation, thus guaranteeing the reproducibility and robustness of the workflow. FAXP achieved a 14.5-fold increase in volumetric resolution. It generated over 8 times higher peptide yield and a 255% rise in protein identifications while reducing sample preparation time by 50%. We also demonstrated the applicability of FAXP using human colorectal FFPE tissue samples. Furthermore, for the first time, we achieved bona fide single-subcellular proteomics under image guidance by integrating FAXP with laser capture microdissection.
