We performed immunohistochemical studies on five-micrometer-thick whole tissue sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue in a Bond 3 automated immunostainer (Leica Microsystems, Bannockburn, IL, USA) using a primary antibody against BRAF V600E (clone: VE1, 1:100, Spring Bioscience, Pleasanton, CA) and a primary antibody against beta-catenin. For BRAF V600E, we deparaffinized the sections on the Leica Bond using Bond Dewax solution and performed antigen retrieval with an EDTA-based solution (Leica) at pH 9 and Leica Polymer Refine Kit for DAB (Diaminobenzidine) staining. Appropriate positive and negative controls were included. Positive staining was characterized by diffuse and moderate cytoplasmic staining of the tumor cells. We considered isolated nuclear staining, weak staining of occasional cells, or faint diffuse staining as negative staining. For beta-catenin (BD pharmigen, cat# 610154, mouse-monoclonal, clone: 14), antigen retrieval was performed in a pressure cooker in citrate buffer (pH=6.0, 1:1000 dilution) with a 45 minute incubation followed by Dako anti-mouse-HRP for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cases with nuclear staining (which ranged from low level to high level) were scored as positive and membranous staining were scored as negative.

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.
