ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The incidence rates of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) skin cancers are rising, while the current diagnostic process is time-consuming. We describe the development of a novel approach to high-throughput sampling of tissue lipids using electroporation-based biopsy, termed e-biopsy. We report on the ability of the e-biopsy technique to harvest large amounts of lipids from human skin samples. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Here, 168 lipids were reliably identified from 12 patients providing a total of 13 samples. The extracted lipids were profiled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS-MS) providing cSCC, BCC, and healthy skin lipidomic profiles.RESULTS:
Comparative analysis identified 27 differentially expressed lipids (p < 0.05). The general profile trend is low diglycerides in both cSCC and BCC, high phospholipids in BCC, and high lyso-phospholipids in cSCC compared to healthy skin tissue samples.CONCLUSION:
The results contribute to the growing body of knowledge that can potentially lead to novel insights into these skin cancers and demonstrate the potential of the e-biopsy technique for the analysis of lipidomic profiles of human skin tissues.Palabras clave
