Immunohistochemical Staining Protocol

IHC staining on the respective formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections was performed using the Leica BOND-MAX and Ventana Benchmark XT autostainers according to the conditions stated in Table 1. Tissue sections of 5 µM underwent automated deparaffinization followed by incubation with their optimized antigen retrieval solutions. Slides were then incubated with antibody as indicated in Table 1. Detection of antibody staining was performed according to manufacturer’s protocol for the detection kits used with an extension of hematoxylin counterstain extended to 10 min to ensure for a defined stain. Slides were rinsed with deionized water followed by manual mounting of coverslips. Positive and negative controls were included in each run, consisting of tissue with known expression and tissue stained without primary antibody, respectively. Quantification was assessed double blind by a trained pathologist (B. Pang) and expressed as an H-score. Melanoma samples were purchased from BioMAX-ME2082A.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining on the respective formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded tissue sections was performed using the Leica BOND‐MAX and Ventana Benchmark XT autostainers according to the conditions stated in Table 1. Tissue sections underwent automated deparaffinization followed by incubation with their optimized antigen retrieval solutions. Slides were then incubated with antibody as indicated in Table 1. Detection of antibody staining was carried out according to the manufacturer's protocol for the detection kits used with an extension of hematoxylin counterstain extended to 10 min to ensure for a defined stain. Slides were rinsed with deionized water followed by manual mounting of coverslips. Positive and negative controls were included in each run, consisting of tissue with known expression and tissue stained without primary antibody, respectively. Quantification was assessed double‐blind by a trained pathologist (BP) and expressed as an H‐score. The H‐score was determined by the formula 3 × percentage of strongly staining cells, 2 × percentage of moderately staining cells, and 1 × percentage of weak staining cells, giving a range of 0–300 for the H‐score.

Differentiating Pulmonary Enteric Adenocarcinoma from Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate if the pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma samples could also be differentiated from metastatic colorectal cancer ("primary pulmonary" vs. "metastatic") by means of conventional histomorphology and immunohistochemistry, histology was reevaluated by five senior pathologists blinded to clinical information.
Immunohistochemical staining for ALK, CDX2, CK7, CK20, and TTF-1 was performed on the Leica BOND-MAX and Ventana BenchMark XT automated slide stainer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Antibodies and their according manufacturers as well as concentrations are shown in Supplementary Table S2.

4 μm-thick sections extracted from representative FFPE blocks of each case were evaluated for a series of immunohistochemical staining, including cytokeratin 7 (CK7, clone RN7, BIO), TTF-1 (clone 8G7G3/1, ZECA), NapsinA (polyclonal, MXB), P63 (clone UMAB4, BIO), P40 (clone ZR8, MXB), cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6, clone D5/16B4, MXB), CD56 (clone UMAB83, BIO), synaptophysin (polyclonal, MXB), chromogranin A (clone EP38, BIO), Pan-CK (clone AE1/AE3, BIO), P53 (clone DO-7, BIO), Rb (clone 13A10, CELNOVTE), Ki-67 (clone MIB-1, DAKO) and PD-L1 (clone 22C3, MERCK). IHC staining was performed by the 2-step Envision procedure using Leica Bond-Max or Roche Ventana autostainer. Related antibodies, together with their clone, dilutions and machine platform was listed on supplementary Table 1. The positive percentage and expression pattern (membrane, cytoplasm or nucleus) were evaluated. Immunophenotype of a tumour was regarded as positive when it expressed moderate or greater intensity in more than 10% of neoplastic cells and reactivity less than 10% cells were considered as negative (excepted for PD-L1). PD-L1 was evaluated by tumour proportion score (TPS), and PD-L1 expression on at least 1% tumour cell was viewed as positive.

Comprehensive Profiling of Tumor-Infiltrating Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
TILs and PBMCs were stained for 10-color flow cytometry (detailed antibody list, Supplementary Table 4). An extensive literature research focusing on druggable targets was performed to select immune-regulatory molecules. Representative literature and clinical studies underlying the classification in co-inhibitory or co-stimulatory molecules is included in Supplementary Table 1. Samples were acquired on a Gallios flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter, USA) and analyzed using Kaluza v2.1 (Kaluza, RRID:SCR_016182, Beckman Coulter, USA; gating strategy in Supplementary Fig. 12). FFPE sections containing tumor tissue and healthy tissue were selected for each patient. The tumor front was delineated digitally on scanned slides using Aperio ImageScope v12.4.0 (Leica, Germany). Whole section slides and tissue micro arrays (∅ 1.2 mm) of tumor specimens were stained on a Leica BOND-MAX or Roche Ventana platform according to the manufacturer’s instructions (details in Supplementary Table 4).

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.
