Immunohistochemical Evaluation of SOX2 Expression

The formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were cut into 3-µm sections and dried on Flex IHC microscope slides (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark). The sections were deparaffinized with standard xylene and hydrated through graded alcohols into water. Antigen retrieval was performed using Envision Flex Target Retrieval solution, high pH (Dako). Staining was done at room temperature on an automatic staining workstation (Dako Autostainer Plus, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) with Anti-SOX2 rabbit polyclonal antibody (Merck Millipore # AB5603) at 1:1000 dilution using the Dako EnVision Flex + Visualization System (Dako Autostainer). Counterstaining with hematoxylin was the final step.
SOX2 staining was evaluated as the percentage of cells with nuclear staining in the dysplastic epithelium. The optimal cut-off value for SOX2 staining calculated by ROC analysis using progression to cancer as end-point was 12.5% (Supplementary Figure S2B). Scores were classified as negative or positive staining on the basis of values below or above the cut-off value of 12.5%.

Paraffin-embedded tissue samples were cut into 3-µm sections, deparaffinized with standard xylene, and hydrated through graded alcohols into water. Antigen retrieval was performed by heating the sections with Envision Flex Target Retrieval solution, high pH (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark). Staining was carried out at room temperature on an automatic staining workstation (Dako Autostainer Plus, Glostrup, Denmark) with the following primary antibodies: PI3 Kinase p110α rabbit monoclonal antibody at 1:100 dilution (C73F8; Cell Signaling Technology #4249) or anti-SOX2 rabbit polyclonal antibody at 1:1000 dilution (Merck Millipore, #AB5603) using the Dako EnVision Flex + Visualization System (Dako Autostainer, Glostrup, Denmark) and diaminobenzidine chromogen as the substrate. The final step was counterstaining with hematoxylin.

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of HERG1A Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were cut into 3-μm sections and dried on Flex IHC microscope slides (Dako). The sections were deparaffinized with standard xylene and hydrated through graded alcohols into water. Antigen retrieval was performed using Envision Flex Target Retrieval solution, high pH (Dako). Staining was done at room temperature on an automatic staining workstation (Dako Autostainer Plus) with rabbit polyclonal anti-HERG1A (NT) antibody (Enzo Life Sciences, Inc.) at 1:250 dilution using the Dako EnVision Flex + Visualization System (Dako Autostainer). Counterstaining with haematoxylin was the final step.
Since HERG1A staining showed a homogeneous distribution, a semiquantitative scoring system based on staining intensity was applied. Immunostaining was scored blinded to clinical data by two independent observers as negative (0), weakly (1+), moderately (2+) or strongly positive (3+). Scores ≥2 were considered as HERG1A-positive expression.

The formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were cut into 3-μm sections and dried on Flex IHC microscope slides (Dako). The sections were deparaffinized with standard xylene and hydrated through graded alcohols into water. Antigen retrieval was performed using Envision Flex Target Retrieval solution, high pH (Dako). Staining was done at room temperature on an automatic staining workstation (Dako Autostainer Plus) with rabbit polyclonal Anti-TMEM16A antibody (Abcam #ab53212) at 1:500 dilution or with rabbit monoclonal Anti-TMEM16A [SP31] antibody (Abcam #ab64085) at 1:100 dilution using the Dako EnVision Flex + Visualization System (Dako Autostainer). Counterstaining with haematoxylin for 1 minute was the final step.
A semiquantitative scoring system based on staining intensity was applied. Immunostaining was scored blinded to clinical data by two independent observers as negative (0), weak to moderately (1+), and strongly positive (2+) based on staining intensity. Scores ≥ 1 were considered as ANO1 positive expression. Cut-off point was determined by survival.

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.
