Immunohistochemical Characterization of PDX

Staining was performed using an automated platform with a DAKO Omnis (Agilent Pathology Solutions) on all first-generation PDX samples (T1) to confirm the retention of HGSOC characteristics when compared to the clinical pathology report, or in-house staining, at the time of sample collection. The following antibodies were used: p53 (M700101 1:100; Dako), Ki67 (M7240 1:50; Dako), Cytokeratin (M3515 1:200; Dako), PAX8 (10336–1-AP 1:20000; Proteintech), and WT1 (ab15249 1:800; Abcam). CD45 (M0701 1:500; Dako) was used to exclude donor-derived transplantable hematologic malignancy. Scoring was performed for each PDX by one investigator on one tumor section each from at least three independent mice bearing that PDX and from the relevant baseline patient tumor. Usually ten high-powered fields (for some only five were available) were surveilled and the staining estimated as follows: 3+ almost all tumor cells were strongly positive; 2+ >25% of tumor cells were strongly positive or nearly all tumor cells were moderately positive; 1+ <25% of tumor cells were moderately to strongly positive, or nearly all cells were weakly positive; 0 occasional positive cells only.

Immunofluorescence Staining of Cancer Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We placed glass coverslips in a 6‐well culture plate and soaked them with 70% ethanol for 1 h. After washing the coverslips with PBS, we seeded about 3 × 105 cells per well and cultured them overnight in culture media at 37 °C. The cells were then washed with PBS and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 20 min at RT. The slips were then rinsed with PBS, followed by permeabilization with 0.5% Triton X‐100 in PBS (PBS‐T; 30 min, RT). The cells were rinsed again with PBS, and the coverslips were moved to a paraffin‐covered plate that functioned as an incubation chamber. The cells were blocked with 1% BSA in 0.05% PBS‐T for 1 h at RT, using ≈250 µL of this blocking solution per coverslip. The blocking solution was aspirated, and the cells were incubated with 200–300 µL of CA125 (Abbiotec, 250 556), p53 (Leica Biosystems, CM5), Ki67 (Novus Bio, NB110‐89719), or WT1 (Abcam, ab15249) antibody solution diluted in the aforementioned blocking buffer. After incubation (1 h, RT), cells were triple‐washed with 0.05% PBS‐T in 5‐min intervals. Finally, cells were incubated with fluorophore‐conjugated secondary antibodies (1 h, RT) and then triple‐washed with 0.05% PBS‐T in 5‐min intervals. The coverslips were mounted onto slides using Fluoromount‐G, allowed to dry, sealed, and imaged using an EVOS FL Auto 2 microscope. We used ImageJ (version 10.2) to adjust for background fluorescence.

All antibodies were obtained from commercial sources. Staining for CD45 [FITC conjugated mouse monoclonal (B-A11), Abcam, ab27287] and CD71 [AlexaFluor647 conjugated mouse monoclonal (MEM75), Abcam, ab187777] was performed on ice for 30 min each. Additional WT-1 (1/50 dilution; rabbit anti-human, Abcam, ab15249) staining was performed on ice for 30 min after permeabilization with 0.1% Tween-PBS and blocking with 10% goat serum in FACS buffer. For flow cytometry, AlexaFluor405 goat anti-rabbit antibody (1/2,000 dilution; Abcam, ab175655) was used as a secondary antibody. For fluorescence histochemistry, FITC goat anti-rabbit antibody (1/100 dilution; Thermo Fischer, F-2765) was used as a secondary antibody to allow for Hoechst staining of the sections.

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.
