In-house tumors and control tissues were fixed in 10% neutral-buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. Tumors obtained from other institutions had been processed in different devices, however, with the same formalin concentration. Tumors and control tissue blocks were cut in 4 µm sections, mounted on TOMO slides (Matsunami Glass IND Ltd., Osaka, Japan) and dried for 1 h at 50 °C. Haematoxylin and eosin (H & E) staining was performed on all sections for diagnostic confirmation of tumor type. Clear cell renal cell carcinomas, pheochromocytomas, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and extra-adrenal paragangliomas were histologically graded according to the following grading systems: World Health Organization (WHO)/International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grading system [15 (link)], Pheochromocytoma of the Adrenal Gland Scaled Score (PASS) [16 (link)], WHO grading system [17 ], and for paragangliomas again the Pheochromocytoma of the Adrenal Gland Scaled Score (PASS) [16 (link)].

Four micron sections from B, C and D cores for IHC were placed on either SuperFrost plus slides (PSA, ERG, Vimentin stains) or TOMO slides (Matsunami glass Ind., Ltd) (2IHC stain) using automated Bond III technology (PSA, ERG and Vimentin) or Ventana Benchmark GX technology ("2IHC" CK5/6, p63 and AMACR cocktail) (Fimlab) (detailed protocol in Supplemental Methods). The IHC sections were counterstained with hematoxylin.
Overall immunohistochemistry results were compared for each trio of BCD IHC sections (4core study) or BC IHC sections (3-core study) by two pathologists (T.T. and G.S.B.).

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.
