Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female nude mice bearing MDA-MB-231 and SNU-16 tumors were euthanized by cervical dislocation under anesthesia, and subcutaneous tumors were dissected. After dissection, tumor tissues were fixed with 10% neutral buffed formalin (Mildform®10N, Wako Pure Chemicals, 133-10311) for 2 days, and processed for standard formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections. IHC was performed using Autostainer Link 48 (DAKO) and PT Link (DAKO) at room temperature, unless otherwise stated. All of the primary antibodies (Goat anti-EPHA2 Ab [R&D Systems, AF3035] and Normal goat IgG [R&D Systems, AB-108-C]) were diluted to a final concentration of 2.5 μg/mL with the DAKO REAL Antibody Diluent (DAKO, S2022). Approximately 4 μm thick sections were deparaffinized and pretreated with Envision FLEX TRS High (DAKO, K8004) for 40 min at 97°C followed by endogenous peroxidase blocking (DAKO, S2023) and protein blocking (DAKO, X0909). Then, the sections were sequentially incubated with the primary antibodies for 1 h, Histofine Simple Stain MAX-PO (Goat) (Nichirei Bioscience, 414161) as a secondary antibody for 30 min, and DAB+ Liquid (DAKO, K3468) for 10 min. Washes were performed after every step. Finally, the sections were counterstained with EnVision FLEX Hematoxylin (DAKO, K8008) for 5 min, and mounted. Two individual tumors from each xenograft model were used for IHC.

Vascular Graft Engraftment Dynamics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The early stage of the engraftment of the vascular grafts was analyzed 10 days (n = 3), and the long-term response was assessed 6 months (n = 4) following implantation. The tissue blocks were cut so as to provide approx. 10 µm-thick histological sections with a section plane parallel to the long axis of the aorta (Figure 1).
The sections were stained using a variety of general and specialized histological (Table 2) as well as immunohistochemical reaction dyes (Table 3) in order to enable the characterization of the cellular populations of the grafts. The visualization of the immunohistochemical reaction was based on diaminobenzidine (DAB+, Liquid; DakoCytomation, Glostrup, Denmark). The immunohistochemical sections were then counterstained with Gill’s hematoxylin. All the sections were dehydrated in graded ethanol solutions and mounted with a xylene-soluble medium.
Stained samples were evaluated qualitatively in order to describe the vessel remodeling in two investigated time points. No statistical analysis was performed due to the low number of tested samples.

Quantitative Analysis of LAMC1 Expression in Glioma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A tissue microarray of glioma (Cat: HBraG159Su01) and normal brain tissue sections were purchased from Shanghai Outdo Biotech (Shanghai, China). IHC was performed using a DAKO automatic IHC instrument in accordance with the manufacturer’s protocol. The array was incubated with an anti-LAMC1 antibody (Cat#: ABP55085, Abbkine, Wuhan, China) at a 1:100 dilution overnight at 4 °C and developed using Dako Liquid DAB. The scoring system of the staining intensity was as follows: negative (0 points); weak (1 points); moderate (2 points); strong (3 points). The positive range percentage criteria were as follows: 0%–25% positive cells (1 points); 26%–50% positive cells (2 points); 51%–75% positive cells (3 points); 76%–100% positive cells (4 points). Stained samples were analyzed under microscope (Aperio XT, LEICA, Germany). The total immunoreactive score was evaluated independently by two pathologists by summing by the nuclear and cytoplasm/membrane staining scores. For cases where the scores of two pathologists are inconsistent, a re-evaluation score should be made to reach a consensus.

Histochemical Analysis of Gal1GalNAc1 in CCA Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Biotinylated peanut agglutinin (PNA) (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA)
was used for detection of Gal1GalNAc1. Paraffin sections of CCA tissues were
deparaffinized in xylene, and then hydrated in downgraded ethanol and distilled
water. The antigens were unmasked by heating each section (in 0.1 mol/L citrate
buffer, pH of 6.0) in a pressure cooker. The sections were then treated with
absolute methanol containing 5% hydrogen peroxide for 30 minutes at room
temperature. After washing with phosphate-buffered saline and blocking
nonspecific binding (20% normal horse serum for 30 minutes at room temperature),
sections were (a) incubated with biotinylated lectin PNA (dilution of 1:20) for
2 hours at room temperature, and then (b) incubated with the VECTASTAIN® ABC HRP
Kit (Vector Laboratories) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The
sections were visualized with 3,3ʹ-diaminobezidine-tetrahydrochloride, liquid
DAB+ (Dako, Carpinteria, CA, USA), and counterstained with hematoxylin and
eosin. The staining results were evaluated as the frequency of PNA-positive
cells at the tumor area. Staining was classified into four scoring categories as
follows: 0, negative; 1+, 1% to 10%; 2+, 11% to 50%; and 3+, >50%. Scores of
0 and 1+ were categorized as low expression and scores of 2+ and 3+ as high
expression for statistical analysis.

After washing for 3 times, cells were incubated with Liquid DAB+ (Dako) for 3 minutes, and wash twice again. Then the cells were counterstained in Hematoxylin (Vector) for 30 sec, twice. Sequentially wash cells with water(twice, 5mins), 95% ethanol(2min) and 100% ethanol(2min). Finally, dip cells in xylene and mount with Permount onto a slide for microscopy imaging.

To determine the ex vivo Aβ-binding ability of the NP-Ab, slides with APP/PS1 and WT mouse brain sections were deparaffinized and rehydrated for immunohistochemical staining using the EnVision G/2 Doublestain System, Rabbit/Mouse (DAB+/Permanent Red, K5361, Agilent Dako, Santa Clara, CA, USA), as per the manufacturers’ instructions. Adjacent sections on the same slide were incubated with either NP-Ab, rabbit polyclonal anti-Aβ antibody (1:600) as a positive control, or 1x PBS as a negative control for 20 min, followed 3,3′diaminobenzidine (liquid DAB+, DAKO, Glostrup, Denmark) for 5 min.

For the immunohistochemical HER2 staining, FFPE tissue sections were prepared and stained using the Dako Autostainer Universal Staining System (Dako). 2.5 μm thick sections of the FFPE samples were prepared and mounted onto silated microscopy slides (HistoSil slides, Stölzle-Oberglas). The dried slides were deparaffinated and rehydrated by immersion in xylene followed by immersion in ethanol of decreasing concentration (96 %, 80 %, 70 %). Epitope demasking was performed in a boiling citrate buffer pH 6 (Dako REALTM Target Retrieval Solution, Dako). Staining for HER2 was performed using a rabbit polyclonal antibody directed against ERBB2/HER2 (Dako, A0485) diluted 1:500 in the EnVisionTM FLEX Antibody Diluent (Dako). As a secondary antibody a horseradish peroxidase coupled polymer (EnVision+, Dako) was applied, which reacts with the substrate chromogen 3,3′-diaminobenzidinetetrahydrochloride (Liquid DAB+, Dako). Counterstaining for nuclei was performed using haematoxylin (Dako).
