Tissue sections were deparaffinized in xylene and rehydrated through a graded ethanol series. Heat‐induced antigen retrieval was carried out in a high or low‐pH antigen retrieval buffer (DakoCytomation, Glostrup, Denmark). Endogenous peroxidase was blocked by incubating tissue sections in 3% H2O2 for 5 minutes. The primary antibodies against CD4 as a marker for helper T cells (1:500, EPR6855; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), CD8 as a maker for cytotoxic T lymphocytes (1:500, EP1150Y; Abcam), CD20 as a marker for pan B cells (1:50, L26; Abcam), Foxp3 as a marker for regulatory T cells (Treg) (1:300, 236A/E7; Abcam), PNAd as a marker for HEV (1:100, MECA‐79; BD PharmingenTM), programmed cell death (PD)‐1 as a marker for immune checkpoint molecules (1:50, NAT105; Abcam), Ki‐67 as a marker for cell proliferation (1:100, SP6; Abcam), CD80 as a marker for M1 macrophages (1:1000, EPR1157(2); Abcam) and CD163 as a marker for M2 macrophages (1:500, EPR11598; Abcam) were applied for 30 minutes. These sections were visualized using the HRP‐labeled polymer method (EnVision FLEX System, Dako). Immunostained sections were counterstained with hematoxylin, dehydrated in ethanol, and cleared in xylene. These data are summarized in Table S1.

Immunohistochemical Profiling of Tumor Immune Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
From all included patients, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) pre-treatment biopsies were collected. Sections of the FFPE blocks were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and assessed by a dedicated head and neck pathologist (S.M. Willems) to mark representative tumor regions. For each patient, three 0.6 mm tissue cores were obtained from the assigned area of the FFPE blocks and collected in a tissue microarray (TMA). The TMA was constructed by a fully automated tissue microarray instrument, as described before [22 (link)].
TMA tissue sections (4 µm) were immunohistochemically stained with antibodies for the following antigens: CD3 (A452; 1:200; DAKO), CD4 (SP35, 1:25; Cellmarque), CD8 (CD8/144B; 1:100; DAKO), FoxP3 (236A/E7; 1:750; Abcam), PD1 (NAT105; 1:100; Abcam), and PD-L1 (SP263, Ventana RTU). Staining was performed using a Ventana Bench Mark XT Autostainer (Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ, USA).

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, CD4 (clone EP204, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), and CD8 (clone 4B11, Leica, Wetzlar, Germany) using standard automated protocols. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for PD-1 (clone NAT105, Abcam, Cambridge, U.K.)16 (link) and PD-L1 (clone SP142, Spring Bioscience, Pleasanton, CA)17 (link) were performed as previously described, including the use of an isotype control for PD-L1 to control for potential false-positive staining.18 (link) Eight patient samples from the control and iLTS cohorts were stained for CD4, CD8, PD-1, and PD-L1. Eight iSGS patient samples were stained for only CD4, PD-1, and PD-L1 due to limited sample supply.

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue specimens obtained from surgical resections were examined. PD-1 and PD-L1 expression patterns were assessed by IHC on tumor samples by a pathologist blinded to clinical outcomes. The PD-1 antibody used was NAT105 (1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom) and PD-L1 antibody used was 22C3 (Merck Research Laboratories, Palo Alto, California). Expression was graded in a semiquantitative scoring system from 0 to 5 (0 indicating no expression, 5 indicating high expression) as described elsewhere.28 (link)–30

Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded 5 μm sections were deparaffinized and decloaked in 1% citrate buffer at pH 6.0 (Vector Laboratories). Sections were blocked in 1%BSA with goat serum prior to staining for CD3 (I nvitrogen, SP7, 1:150), PD-1 (Abcam, NAT105, 1:200), and CD20 (Abcam, EP459Y, 1:300) overnight. Following primary staining, tissues were washed and incubated with goat anti- mouse Alexa Fluor 488 (Invitrogen, 1:500) and goat anti- rabbit Alexa Fluor 594 (Invitrogen, 1:500) for 1 hour at room temperature. Background signal was quenched by 1-minute incubation using Vector TRUEView Autofluorescence Quenching Kit (Vector Laboratories). Coverslips were mounted and nuclei stained using Vectashield Hardset Antifade Mounting Medium with DAPI (Vector Laboratories). Composite tissue images were acquired on a Keyence BZ-X710 fluorescence microscope at 20X magnification. Identification of active germinal centers and T cell quantification were performed using open-source packages available in FiJI.

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.
