Cases were identified in the consultation files of the authors. The tissue specimens were fixed in formalin and processed routinely for histopathology. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on 3-μm sections cut from paraffin blocks using a fully automated system (“Benchmark XT System”, Ventana Medical Systems Inc., 1910 Innovation Park Drive, Tucson, Arizona, USA) and the following antibodies: vimentin (V9, 1:100, Dako), keratin cocktail (clone AE1/AE3, 1:40, Zytomed, Berlin, Germany), p63 (SSI6, 1: 100, DCS), desmin (clone D33, 1:250, Dako), alpha smooth muscle actin (clone 1A4, 1:200, Dako), HMB45 (clone HMB45, 1:50, Enzo), Melan A (clone A103, 1:50, Dako), CD34 (clone BI-3C5, 1:200, Zytomed), ERG (EPR3864, prediluted, Ventana), CD31 (clone JC70A, 1:20, Dako), S100 protein (polyclonal, 1:2500, Dako), SOX10 (polyclonal, 1:25, DCS), PAX8 (polyclonal rabbit anti-PAX8, 1:50, Cell Marque), NSE (clone BBS/NC/VI-H1, 1:300, Dako), TTF1 (clone 8G7G3/1, 1:500, Zytomed Systems, Berlin, Germany), Napsin A (MRQ-60, ready-to-use, Medac), calretinin (polyclonal, 1:100, Zytomed), alpha-inhibin (clone R1, 1:50, Serotec), GFAP (Clone GFA, 1/1000, DakoPatts, Denmark), EMA (clone E29, 1:200, Dako), STAT6 (clone S-20, 1:1000, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), TFE3 (clone MRQ-37, 1:100, Cell Marque), Cathepsin-K (clone 3F9, 1:50, Abcam) and Ki67 (clone MiB1, 1:100, Dako).

Immunohistochemical staining was performed to distinguish GIST from other mesenchymal tumors in addition to hematoxylin and eosin staining. For the immunohistochemical staining, commercially available primary antibodies against KIT (polyclonal, 1:500; MBL, Nagoya, Japan), CD34 (clone QBEnd10, 1:600; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), S100 (polyclonal, 1:1000; Dako), alpha smooth muscle actin (clone 1A4, 1:1000; Dako) and MIB-1(clone MIB-1, 1:1000; Dako) were utilized.

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.
