• 3D Spatial Proteomics Provides View Of Diseases At Early Stages

    Bio-IT World | Researchers in Germany have developed a series of innovative solutions for probing the body more broadly and deeply for early pathological signs of diseases ranging from metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative diseases to cancer. Their novel technology, dubbed DISCO-MS, does spatial proteomics in three-dimensional (3D) intact specimens using a combination of whole-organ and whole-organism clearing and imaging, deep-learning-based image analysis, robotic tissue extraction, and ultrahigh-sensitivity mass spectrometry.
