Fig. 4

a H&E stain image of gastric cancer tissue section from patient “No.0429”, “No.0602”, and “No.0716”, scale bar = 2 mm. The experiment was repeated three times. b Fatty acid de novo synthesis pathway. c Synthesis and metabolism pathways of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. d MS images of representative lipids in gastric cancer tissues (intensity in colour scale is relative value). e Expression levels of representative lipids in different region spots of gastric cancer tissue from patient “No.0429” (seven tissue samples for spatial lipidomics, n = 6 independent section regions from patient “No.0429”, mean ± SD), p-values were calculated using the unpaired two-tailed t-test at confidence intervals 0.95. f Spatial expression images of key genes in lipid synthesis and metabolism pathways (intensity in colour scale is log2 transformed). g Expression levels of lipid metabolism-related key genes in different micro-regions of gastric cancer tissue from patient “No.0429”.
