Multimodal Raman and Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging: A New Analytical Approach for Resolving Timing-Dependent Metabolic Recovery in Endothelial Dysfunction
, complemented by nonspectral descriptors such as reduced cell volume and accelerated lipid droplet formation. Chemometric analysis utilizing principal component analysis, partial least-squares regression, and semiquantitative lipid profiling revealed a pronounced timing-dependent response to enalaprilat. Preventive treatment was found to preserve metabolic integrity, whereas post-treatment induced only partial restitution and generated a divergent metabolic trajectory. These findings demonstrate that early intervention leads to analytically distinguishable molecular states, underscoring the relevance of temporal profiling in endothelial diagnostics. By establishing a multimodal spectroscopic and chemometric framework, this work highlights the analytical power of integrative imaging for resolving subtle metabolic phenotypes and refining strategies for the objective evaluation of therapeutic efficacy.
