Bone marrow biopsies were decalcified in EDTA prior to paraffin embedding. 3 μm sections were cut from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples. Upper gastrointestinal biopsies were routinely stained with hematoxylin and eosin stain and periodic acid–Schiff stain. Bone marrow biopsies were routinely stained with naphthol AS-D chloroacetate esterase (NASDCL). Immunohistochemical staining was performed using a horseradish peroxidase catalyzed brown chromogen reaction together with ready-to-use antibodies in an automated staining system (Dako Autostainer Link®; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), following the manufacturer's guidelines. Depending on the tissue section size, up to three droplet zones are stained with 100 μl antibody solution per droplet zone. The following antibodies were used: CD3 (rabbit polyclonal, Dako), CD4 (clone 4B12, Dako), CD8 (clone C8/144B, Dako), CD19 (clone LE-CD19, Dako), CD20 (clone L26, Dako), CD38 (clone SPC 32, Novocastra, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK), IgM, IgG, IgA (rabbit polyclonal antibodies; Dako). Photos were taken on an Olympus BX51 microscope (Olympus Germany, Hamburg, Germany) with the AxioCam MRc camera (Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

NV mice were sacrificed on days 0, 7 and 14 after B16OVA melanoma transplantation. The most common metastatic organs (liver, spleen, kidney, adrenal glands, liver and lungs) were resected, sectioned, and fixed by immersion in 4% formaldehyde for 24 h. Organs were subsequently embedded in paraffin, processed, and sections stained with hematoxylin–eosin) and immunohistochemical analysis of lymphocyte markers performed as previously described [10 (link)]. Primary monoclonal antibodies (Dako, Carpinteria, CA, USA) used were against the following antigens, CD4 (clone 4B12), CD8 (clone c8/144B), CD23 (clone DAK-CD23), CD45 (clone 2B11 + PD7/26), CD56 (clone 123C3) and CD68 (clone KP1) and visualized as described [10 (link)].

Immunohistochemistry on cell block and FFPE capsular specimens was performed using an automated immunostainer (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) with the following primary antibodies: CD30 (clone Ber-H2), CD3 (clone F7.2.38), CD4 (clone 4B12), CD8 (clone C8/144B), CD68 (clone PG1), CD15 (clone Car-b), Granzyme B (clone GrB-7), IRF-4 (clone MUM1) (Dako), CD25 (clone 4C9, Novocastra, Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK), PAX5 (clone SP34, Thermo Scientific, Waltham, USA). Paraffin sections were pretreated using EnVision FLEX Target Retrieval Solution (Dako) and incubated with an optimal dilution of the primary antibody. The reaction was visualized with the EnVision Detection Kit (Dako) using 3–3’-diaminobenzidine chromogenic substrate. Sections were counterstained with EnVision FLEX Hematoxylin (Link) (Dako).
For every marker, positive cells were counted out of 10 non-overlapping randomly selected high-power microscopic fields (HPFs, 40×10), and the mean number of positively stained cells per HPF was recorded. The percentage of positive cells was calculated as the ratio between the mean number of stained cells per HPF and the mean number of total cells per HPF.

Quantifying Immune Cell Profiles in Primary Tumors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded primary tumor tissue using the antibodies: CD3 (clone IR503; DAKO), CD8a (clone: C8/144B; DAKO), CD4 (clone 4B12; DAKO), CD103 (clone EPR4166(2); Abcam), PD-1 (clone NAT105; Abcam), PD-L1 (clone E1L3N; CST), MHCI ABC (clone EMR8-5; Abcam) and MHCII DR+DP+ DQ (clone: CR3/43; Abcam). Stained slides were scanned using a Zeiss Axio Scan.Z1 Digital Slide Scanner and Zeiss ZEN software (V.2.6) and positive cells were enumerated using the QuPath bioimage analysis software (V.0.2.9-m9); automated positive cell counting was on three independent regions, with the diaminobezidine mean as the score compartment.24 (link)

Immunohistochemistry Profiling of Tumor Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemistry staining was carried out using mAbs against HSP105 (clone EPR4576; Epitomics), HLA class I (clone EMR8‐5; Hokudo), PD‐L1 (clone SP142; SPRING), CD8 (clone 1A5; BioGenex), and CD4 (clone 4B12; Dako) according to the manufacturers’ protocols. Quantitative analysis of HSP105 expression was carried out based on the staining intensity and the results were scored as 0, 1+, 2+, and 3+. The HLA class I expression was evaluated based on the proportion of stained cells and staining intensity; however, because all examined cancer tissues had a high proportion of stained cells (67% or more), they were classified based on the intensity. Expression of PD‐L1 was scored as – (0%) or + (1% or more) according to the percentage of positively stained areas relative to the total tumor areas. CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in tumors were counted in high power fields (×400) and the average numbers were calculated.

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.
