RATIONALE: Many patients with adenocarcinoma of the prostate present with advanced and metastatic cancer at the time of diagnosis. There is an urgent need to detect biomarkers that will improve the diagnosis and prognosis of this disease. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI-IMS) is playing a key role in cancer research and it can be useful to unravel the molecular profile of prostate cancer biopsies. METHODS: MALDI imaging data sets are highly complex and their interpretation requires the use of multivariate statistical methods. In this study, MALDI-IMS technology, sequential principal component analysis (PCA) and two-dimensional (2-D) peak distribution tests were employed to investigate tumor heterogeneity in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) prostate cancer biopsies. RESULTS: Multivariate statistics revealed a number of mass ion peaks obtained from different tumor regions that were distinguishable from the adjacent normal regions within a given specimen. These ion peaks have been used to generate ion images and visualize the difference between tumor and normal regions. Mass peaks at m/z 3370, 3441, 3447 and 3707 exhibited stronger ion signals in the tumor regions. CONCLUSIONS: This study reports statistically significant mass ion peaks unique to tumor regions in adenocarcinoma of the prostate and adds to the clinical utility of MALDI-IMS for analysis of FFPE tissue at a molecular level that supersedes all other standard histopathologic techniques for diagnostic purposes used in the current clinical practice.
