Next, Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was conducted on these tissue slides. The primary antibodies used in the research were as follows: anti-ACE2 (1:3000 dilution, Cat. ab15348, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-CD8 (Ready-to-use, Cat. PA067, Abcarta, Suzhou, China), and anti-PD-L1 (Ready-to-use, Cat. GT2280, GeneTech, Shanghai, China). Antibody staining was visualized with DAB and hematoxylin counterstain, and stained sections were scanned using Aperio Digital Pathology Slide Scanner. All stained sections were independently evaluated by two independent pathologists. For semi-quantitative evaluation of ACE2 and PD-L1 staining, the immunoreactivity score (IRS) was applied as previously described [27 (link)]. For CD8 staining, infiltration level was assessed by estimating the percentage of cells with strong intensity of membrane staining in the stroma cells. In addition, tumors were demarcated into three phenotypes based on the spatial distribution of CD8+ T cells, including the inflamed, the excluded, and the deserted phenotypes [28 (link)].

4% PFA‐fixed tissues were paraffin embedded and sectioned into serial slices of 5 μm thickness. After permeabilization, antigen retrieval, and blocking, the brain slices were incubated with primary antibodies anti‐Ki‐67 (Abcam, ab 16667, 1:1000), anti‐CD8 (Abcam 1:1500), and cleaved caspase‐3 (CST Asp175 1:2500) diluted with 1% goat serum (Vector Laboratories) in PBS overnight. The slices were then incubated in the secondary antibody for 1 h and stained with the ABC HRP kit (Vectastain). After washing, the bound complex was visualized by incubating it with DAB (3,3‐diaminobenzidine). Images were obtained by Nikon‐Eclipse Ti. Image analysis was performed using Image J 1.51j8 with IHC Profiler to calculate the positive stained areas and to count the number of positive cells.

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues sectioned to 4 μm were used for histological evaluation of liver tumors in a mouse model. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed for each sample. For IHC, tissue slides were deparaffinized with xylene and rehydrated through a graded series of ethanol solutions (100%, 95%, and 70%). Subsequently, the slides were subjected to antigen retrieval by microwaving in a citric acid solution for 15 min. The primary antibodies anti-hepatocyte (Abcam, Cat#ab75677), anti-Epcam (Abcam, Cat#ab213500), anti-CD3 (Abcam, Cat#ab16669), anti-Ly6G (Servicebio, Cat#GB11229), anti-CD8 (Abcam, Cat#ab217344), anti-F4/80 (CST, Cat#70076), anti-Asma (Servicebio, Cat#BM0002), and anti-CD31 (Servicebio, Cat#GB113151) were used. Subsequently, the slides were incubated with secondary antibodies (1:1, 100 μL for each slide; HRP-anti-rabbit IgG, ZSGB, Cat#PV-6001, or HRP-anti-mouse IgG, ZSGB, Cat#PV-6002) for 10 min at room temperature. Multispectral images were scanned with a ZEISS AXIOSCAN 7 instrument. Cells of interest were quantified in Halo v3.4 (Indica Labs) or QuPath v0.2.0. Each section was evaluated by 2 or 3 experienced pathologists.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed on tumor, intestinal and spleen tissues to quantify changes in immune cells (CD4 + T, CD8 + T, MPO-positive neutrophils, and F4/80-positive macrophages). The sections were then deparaffinized and rehydrated. Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked with 3 % hydrogen peroxide for 30 min at room temperature. Nonspecific binding was reduced by incubation with 10 % normal goat serum for 30 min. The sections were then incubated with rabbit antibody anti-CD4 (CST, Massachusetts, Cat. 25229, 1:125 dilution), anti-CD8 (Abcam, Cambridge, Cat. ab209775, 1:100 dilution), anti-MPO (Abcam, Cambridge, Cat. ab208670, 1:2000 dilution), or anti-F4/80 (CST, Massachusetts, Cat. 70076; 1:500 dilution) overnight at 4 °C. This was followed by a 45-min incubation with secondary antibodies. Immunoreactivity was revealed using the diaminobenzidine chromogen reaction. The detailed information on primary and secondary antibodies used for IHC staining is summarized in the Supplementary TableA2.
The IHC sections were scanned using a KF-PRO-020 whole slide scanner (KFBIO, Ningbo, China) and then analyzed using the HALO image analysis platform (Indica Labs, Albuquerque, NM, USA), as described in our previous publication [4] (link).

Briefly, peripheral elbow venous blood (5 ml) was obtained from all patients within 24 h after admission. The samples were collected in tubes with heparin and added with 5 ml phosphate buffer (PBS) and then centrifuged at 1500 g for 10 min. The cell layer was then collected, added with 5 ml PBS, following with centrifugation at 1200 g for 5 min. After removing the supernatant and washing with PBS, the samples were further centrifuged at 1000 g for 2 min to obtain the peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The cells with density of 1 × 106/ml were maintained in RPMI-1640 Medium (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA).
For measurement of PD-1+ and LAG-3+ T cells, flow cytometry was performed as described elsewhere [17 (link), 18 (link)]. Antibodies used in this study included anti-CD4, anti-CD8, anti-PD-1 and anti-LAG-3 (all purchased from Abcam, USA). The measurement was conducted on a FACS Calibur flow cytometry analyzer (BD Biosciences) using Diva software (version 6.1, BD Pharmingen).

Brain tissues from mice were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin, and sectioned into 4 µm-thick segments. After heat-induced antigen epitope retrieval, slides were blocked with PBS containing 3% normal serum and incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies as follows: anti-CD68, anti-CD86 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), anti-CD4, anti-CD8, anti-Iba-1, and anti-TSPO (Abcam, Cambridge, UK). The slides were then washed with PBS and incubated with biotinylated secondary antibodies (anti-goat for CD68; anti-rabbit for CD4, CD8, and Iba-1; all from Santa Cruz Biotechnology). The slides were then treated with avidin-biotin solution (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA) for 1 h. The antigenic signal was developed using DAB (3, 3 -diaminobenzidine) substrate (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer's instructions. Finally, the slides were counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted with the Permount Mounting Medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Fair Lawn, NJ, USA).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The primary antibodies used in immunohistochemistry (IHC) for tissue slides were used for IHC of tissue slides: anti-IFNAR1 (Abclonal, 1:200 dilution), anti-CD4 (Abcam, 1:200 dilution), anti-CD8 (Abcam, Cat# ab93278, 1:500 dilution), anti-FOXP3 (CST, 1:200 dilution), anti-OAS1 (CST, 1:100 dilution), and anti-TGFBR1 (Abcam, 1:400 dilution). The slices were deparaffinized and rehydrated, pretreated with a citric acid antigen retrieval solution (pH = 6.8), and rinsed in PBS. The sections were blocked in 2% goat serum and incubated with the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. The streptavidin-peroxidase method (ZSGG-BIO, CAT# PV9001) was used to show the levels of stained proteins. The number of CD4, CD8, and FOXP3 cells were calculated using K-Viewer V1 system (Version, Code 1.5.3.1, KONFOONG BIOTECH INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD). The levels of OAS1, IFNAR1, and TGFBR1 were scored as follows: 1 (0–25%), 2 (26–50%), 3 (51–75%), and 4 (>75%). The intensity of positive staining was classified into four scales as follows: 0 (negative), 1 (weak), 2 (moderate), and 3 (strong). The levels were semiquantitatively determined as percentages multiplied by intensity.

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.
