Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We performed a IHC to investigate the SPP1 expression in LUAD tissues and adjacent normal tissues on LUAD microarray (HLugA150CS03, Shanghai Outdo Biotech Company). Briefly, after the tissue chip was treated step by step based on the IHC protocol, all images were acquired using an inverted microscopy (XSP-C204, CIC). The expression intensity was semi-quantitatively measured by the cumulative value of the integrated optical density (IOD) and the area of the target region (Area) by using the software Image pro-plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, China). Furthermore, the SPP1 protein expression level was evaluated with the mean density (IOD/Area). The antibody used in IHC was anti-SPP1 (ab214050, 1:1000, Abcam).

Through Outdo BioTech, we acquired one human GC TMA (Shanghai, China). Moreover, our prior work described the specific experimental methods and immunohistochemistry scores used to evaluate the samples [3 (link)]. Briefly, gastric cancer and paracancerous tissues were fixed in 10% formalin, paraffin-embedded, sliced into 4-6 um sections, and placed onto slides. After deparaffinization, rehydration, and microwave antigen retrieval, the slides were incubated with primary antibodies against CD20 (1:5000 dilution; Proteintech Group, Inc., Rosemont, IL, USA), CD19 (1:5000 dilution; Proteintech Group, Inc., Rosemont, IL, USA), and CXCR4 (1:1000 dilution; ab214050; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) antibodies at 4 °C overnight. Afterward, the slides were incubated with a secondary antibody at room temperature for 30 min and stained with DAB substrate, followed by hematoxylin counterstaining. The immunohistochemical score was determined by multiplying the staining intensity score by the staining extent score. The positive result is a brown color of varying shades. The color depth of brown was positively correlated with the protein expression level.

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.
