Tumor sections was obtained from post-surgery specimens with an informed consent waiver. Postoperative tumor tissues derived from patients were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and embedded in paraffin. The tissues were sectioned into 5-μm slices and deparaffinized with xylene followed by rehydrated with graded alcohols. Antigen retrieval was performed in a boiling pressure cooker with citrate buffer (pH = 6.0) for 10 min. The sections were incubated with anti-ESM1 antibody (bs-3615R, Bioss, Beijing, China) at a dilution of 1:200 overnight at 4°C. After washing with PBST the next day, the sections were incubated with an HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit secondary antibody (MaxVision, Fuzhou, China) for half an hour at room temperature. Finally, the sections were visualized with diaminobenzidine (DAB, ZSGB Bio, Beijing, China) and counterstained with hematoxylin. The IHC images were captured by a slide Scanner System (3DHISTECH, Budapest, Hungary) and Immunohistochemistry scores (H-scores) were quantified by 3DHISTECH QuantCenter software (3DHISTECH, Budapest, Hungary). Since there is no universally accepted standard, we considered a score below 50 as negative expression, 50-100 as weak positive, 100-150 as medium positive, and greater than 150 as strong positive based on previous literature (14 (link)).

Tissue sections were mounted on slides, treated with xylene, and rehydrated using a graded series of alcohol–water solutions before heat treatment in 10 mM citric acid (pH 6.0) for antigen retrieval49 (link). Endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched using a 0.3% H2O2 solution. After blocking with 10% serum, sections were incubated at 4 °C overnight with primary anti-HSP60 antibodies (sc-376261; 1:200; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA). The slides were then incubated with anti-mouse IgG antibody (ZSBIO, Beijing, China) at 37 °C for 30 min. Signals were visualized with diaminobenzidine (DAB) (ZSBIO), counterstained with hematoxylin, dehydrated in ethanol, cleared in xylene, and mounted. Protein expression levels were analyzed by calculating the integrated optical density per stained area (IOD/area, mean OD value, MOD) using Image-Pro Plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, Rockville, MD, USA) as described previously50 (link).

ST6Gal-I levels in hepatoma carcinoma and normal hepatic tissues were evaluated by IHC using anti-ST6Gal-I on commercial tissue arrays (Shanghai Zhuo Li Biological Technology, China) as previously described.38 (link), 39 (link) After antigen retrieval and blocking, the slides were incubated with a rabbit anti-ST6Gal-I primary antibody (1:100; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) overnight at 4 °C. Negative control slides were processed in the same manner, without addition of the primary antibody. For detection, diaminobenzidine (DAB) (ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China) and hematoxylin were used. Two certified pathologists blinded to the clinical data independently assessed ST6Gal-I immunostaining, scoring the results depending on the positive-staining percentages and staining intensity, as follows: (0) 0%, no staining (–); (1) 1–29%, weak positive (+); (2) 30–59%, moderate positive (++); and (3) >60%, intense staining (+++). For statistical analysis, cases were categorized as either negative (no and weak staining) or positive (moderate and intense staining). Pearson’s chi-squared test was used to assess the association between ST6Gal-I and HCC, to determine its clinical significance.

Sections of transplanted tumour tissues were obtained, and endogenous peroxidase was blocked with 30% H2O2. An antigen repair solution was added to the sections before boiling. After cooling for 5 min, the processes of boiling and cooling were repeated two times. After cooling at room temperature, the sections were incubated with 5% BSA at room temperature for 20 min, followed by the removal of the excess liquid. Subsequently, the sections were incubated with rabbit anti‐mouse Ki‐67 primary antibody (ab15580, 1:1000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) at 4°C overnight. The sections were incubated in biotinylated sheep anti‐rabbit IgG (ab6721; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) at 37°C for 40 min. After washing with PBS, the sections were developed with diaminobenzidine (DAB; ZSGB‐Bio, Beijing, China). The Multifunctional True Color Cell Image Analysis and Management system (Media Cybernetics, Rockville, MD, USA) was applied for analysis. Three sections were selected from each sample, and three fields were selected from each section. Quantitative analysis of the images was performed with the Image‐pro Plus Software (Media Cybernetics, Rockville, MD, USA). The integral optical density (IOD) of the Ki‐67 positive staining was measured, and the IOD value was used to represent the expression of Ki‐67.

Liver tissues were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and embedded in paraffin. Cross sections (5 µm) of the tissue were cut and then mounted on glass for histology and immunohistochemical analysis. hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed to assess liver tissue morphology. Immunohistochemical staining was described as before (Lv et al., 2019 (link)). In brief, the liver tissues were embedded in paraffin and sliced into 5-μm sections. After deparaffinization and rehydration, the sections were incubated in sodium citrate buffer. Then 1% H2O2 was used to suppress the endogenous peroxidase activity. Thereafter, the sections were incubated with an anti-CD68 antibody at 4°C overnight. The sections were then incubated with a secondary antibody—anti-rabbit IgG (Santa Cruz, CA, United States) for 1 h at room temperature. Finally, immunospecific reactivity was visualized by diaminobenzidine (DAB; ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China) substrate and counterstained with hematoxylin (Jiancheng Biotech, Nanjing, China). Images were acquired with a microscope (Leica, Solms, German).

The paraffin-embedded tissue samples were sectioned to 4 μm and stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE). For immunohistochemical studies, the sections were examined for the presence of PRV antigen with a horseradish peroxidase (HRP) method using a primary HRP-conjugated anti-PRV mouse monoclonal antibody (provided by Prof. Hanchun Yang, Key Laboratory of Animal Epidemiology and Zoonosis, China Agricultural University, China). The antigen–antibody complexes were examined with the Polink-2 Plus HRP Detection Kit (GB-BIO, Beijing, China), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The sections were incubated with diaminobenzidine (DAB; ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China) for visualization. Finally, the slides were counterstained with hematoxylin. Sections of brainstem from a naturally PRV-infected dog were used as the positive control for each series of stained sections. Sections of brainstem from a healthy dog were included as the negative control.

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.
