MS Comments:Provided are .imzML/.ibd files that are root mean square normalized when exported from SCiLS Lab. I am providing 1 section from each brain. MALDI imaging data were collected on a solariX 12T FTICR mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) in positive ion mode in the m/z 147-1500 range using 2M transients (~300,000 mass resolution at m/z 314). A 50 µm raster spacing in the x and y directions was used. The laser was set to 100 shots, small focus, 12 % power and 1000 Hz. Real time calibration with a lock mass of m/z 314.152598 from the DAN dimer and m/z 760.585082 from PC(34:1) was used to achieve optimal mass accuracy. Two sections from each of the five sham and six injured brains were examined by FTICR MSI. Serial sections were placed on the same ITO slide at the time of the MSI experiment. Among the sections examined, two replicate images were eliminated from the dataset due to abnormally low ion abundances. A total of twenty images from eleven rats were used for multivariate image analysis with eight of those sections being from sham animals and twelve from injured animals. MS images were uploaded to, and analyzed in SCiLS Lab Version 2022b Pro (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany). Regarding pre-processing options, no baseline correction or other notable options were used. For segmentation purposes, a feature list was created with the sliding window tool using the average mass spectrum from all brain sections and the lowest possible intensity threshold. This yielded a large peak list with a ± 3 ppm window for each ion. This feature list was used to computationally segment the brain images into molecularly similar regions of interest (ROI). The parameters used for segmentation were the preliminary feature list, root mean square normalization, strong denoising, bisecting k-means and the Manhattan distance metric. Segmentation was performed on individual brain sections or regions. In a few cases, some ROI were not correctly picked out by the automated segmentation approach alone and were thus manually outlined following specific lipid distributions that helped delineate the ROI borders. For each ROI, feature lists were first created in SCiLS Lab with a ± 5 ppm feature tolerance. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was then conducted on these ROI-specific feature lists using the mean spectra. All ions with an area under the curve above 0.7 (i.e., those with abundances larger in control brains), or those with an area under the curve (AUC) below 0.3 (more abundant in injured animals) were chosen. The remaining m/z values were filtered out from the input feature list. For ROI involving the gray matter, the white matter, and the corpus callosum, AUC cutoff values were set to a stricter cutoff of 0.8 and 0.2, as the corresponding input feature lists contained a large abundance of ions. Extracted ion images for m/z values in the resulting feature lists were inspected to remove any species originating from the MALDI matrix, the embedding mixture, or ions with poor signal-to-noise ratios. The spectral profile for each feature was inspected to ensure that the interval chosen by SCiLS software was correctly aligned with the apex of each peak, and the feature list interval tolerance then lowered to ± 3 ppm.
