Immunohistochemistry was carried out with antibodies directed against PD-L1 [dilution 1:100, E1L3N, Cell Signaling, Danvers, USA (catalog #13684)], PD-1 [dilution 1:100; clone MRQ-22, Cell Marque, Rocklin, USA (#315M-96)], and VISTA [1:500; clone D1L2G, Cell Signaling (#64953)]. Immunostaining of PD-L1 and PD-1 was performed with the autostainer Bond™ Max System (Leica Microsystems GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany). The immunoreaction was visualized with the Bond™ Polymer Refine Detection Kit [brown labeling; Novocastra; Leica Microsystems GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany (#DS9800)]. Immunostaining of VISTA was performed manually: Following antigen retrieval in citrate buffer (pH6), specimens were incubated with hydrogen peroxide block and Ultra V Block [both Thermo Scientific, Braunschweig, Germany (TA-125-HP and TP-125-HL)] to avoid unspecific reactions. The immunoreaction was visualized with the ImmPRESS-HRP-Universal–Antibody Polymer and the NovaRED substrate kit [both VectorLabs, Peterborough, United Kingdom (#SK-4800)]. Counterstaining was carried out with hematoxylin [Dr. K. Hollborn & Söhne GmbH & Co KG; Leipzig, Germany (#88663)].
Germinal centers of lymph follicles served as internal positive control for PD-L1 and PD-1.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of PD-1, PD-L1, and CD8+ Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemical analysis was performed to investigate PD-1 and PD-L1 expression and the presence of CD8 + lymphocytes in the tumor. Tonsil (PD-L1 + , PD-1 + , and CD8 +) and appendix (CD8 + and PD1 +) served as positive controls. Immunohistochemistry was performed on 4-µm-thick FFPE sections of AS TMAs with one or two cores per sample from representative tumor areas (core size 2 mm) to allow simultaneous examination of patient specimens under identical conditions. Staining was performed in the Lab Vision Autostainer 360 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) by using the EnVision FLEX, pH high Link kit (Dako), and monoclonal rabbit anti-PD-L1 (1:800, clone E1L3N, Cell Signaling Technology), monoclonal mouse anti-PD-1 (1:20, clone MRQ-22, Cell Marque) or monoclonal mouse anti-CD8 (1:80, clone C8/144B, Dako).
PD-L1 expression on the tumor cells was scored as 0% ( −), 1–10% (+ / −), 10–50% ( +) or ≥ 50% positive tumor cells (+ +). All CD8 and PD-1 positive T cells were counted and subdivided in three categories: < 10 ( −), 10–50 ( +), or ≥ 50 positive cells (+ +) per tumor core [36 (link)].
Digital images were generated with VisionTekTM (Sakura, version 2.6) and analyzed at × 20 magnification.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
