The matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI MSI) technique has attracted intense interest in the visualization of drug distribution in tissues. Its capability to spatially resolve individual molecules makes it a unique tool in drug development and research. However, low drug content and severe ion suppression in tissues hinder its broader application to resolve drug tissue distribution, especially small molecule drugs with a molecular weight below 500 Da. In this work, an integrated tissue pretreatment protocol was developed to enhance the detection of central nervous system drugs in the mouse brain using MALDI MSI. To evaluate the protocol, brain sections from mice dosed intraperitoneally with donepezil, tacrine, clozapine, haloperidol, and aripiprazole were used. The tissue sections were pretreated serially by washing with ammonium acetate solution, incubation with trifluoroacetic acid vapor, and n-hexane washing before MALDI MSI. Compared with the untreated sample, the signal intensities for the test drugs increased by 4.7- to 31.5-fold after pretreatment. Besides the enhancement of signal intensity, fine optimization of pretreatment time and washing solvents preserved the spatial distribution of target drug molecules. The utility of the developed protocol also provided tissue-specific distribution for five drugs which were well resolved when imaged by MALDI MS.
