Total protein of PE embryonic tissues, EVs or transfected cells was extracted, and the bicinchoninic acid protein quantitative kit (ThermoFisher Scientific) was employed to determine protein concentration. Protein was electrophoretic separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (ZeYE Biological). The membrane was blocked with 5% skim milk powder and then placed in a 3% BSA blocking buffer. Then, membrane was probed with primary rabbit antibodies to Notch2 (1:1000, ab118824, Abcam), TIM3 (1:500, ab185703, Abcam), mTORC1 (1:1000, ab25880, Abcam), CD9 (1:2000, ab92726, Abcam), CD63 (1:1000, ab134045, Abcam), Calnexin (1:20 000, ab92537, Abcam) and β‐actin (1:1000, ab8227, Abcam), and then re‐probed with IgG antibody complexed to horseradish peroxidase (1:2000, ab97051, Abcam). Enhanced chemiluminescence solution (ECL808‐25, Biomiga) was added on membrane for colour development. After scanning and with an optical luminometer (GE, Pittsburg, USA), the protein bands were analysed by Image Pro Plus 6.0 software (Media Cybernetics, Silver Spring, Maryland, USA) to analyse the relative expression levels of proteins with β‐actin as the internal reference.

Immunohistochemistry was performed as previously described (32 (link)). Briefly, paraffin embedded tissue slides with human HCC tissue microarray (TMA) (NBP2-30221, Novus Biologicals) were deparaffinized and rehydrated, endogenous peroxidise activity was blocked with 3% hydrogen peroxide, antigen retrieval was performed in 10 mmol/L citrate buffer, and nonspecific binding was blocked with blocking reagent. HAVCR2 (ab185703, Abcam) and C10ORF54 (CL3975, Invitrogen) antibodies were applied at 1:300 and 1:20 concentrations, respectively. Slides were incubated overnight at 4°C, followed by 30 min incubation with secondary anti-mouse or rabbit antibody HRP (Dako). The chromogen used was 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole. Human normal and cancerous lung tissue was used as the positive control for both the antibodies and a negative control, for which the primary antibodies were substituted with the same concentration of mouse or rabbit IgG. Images were captured using a Olympus CX41 microscope and QCapture software. Immunohistochemical reactivity was evaluated by two independent investigators. The expression of HAVCR2 and C10ORF54 were categorized into positive staining or no staining.

Immunohistochemical staining was performed as described previously [55 (link)]. Briefly, coronal sections (4 μm thickness) were deparaffinized, rehydrated, and soaked in a 3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solution for 10 min at room temperature to quench endogenous peroxidase activity. Next, sections were blocked in 5% bovine serum albumin for 30 min and were incubated overnight at 4 °C with the following primary antibodies: rabbit anti-Tim-3 (1:100, ab185703, Abcam), rabbit anti-Nrf2 (1:200, ab89443, Abcam), or rabbit anti-HMGB1(1:100, 3935S, Cell Signaling Technology). The next day, the sections were washed with PBS three times for 10 min each and were incubated with biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:100, ZSGB-Bio, Beijing, China) for 30 min at room temperature. Sections were then incubated with horseradish peroxidase streptavidin for 10 min and developed with diphenylamine peroxidase substrate. Finally, sections were viewed and images were captured under a light microscope (Leica-DM2500, Leica Microsystems).

For immunofluorescence staining, the slides are deparaffinized and rehydrated with graded ethanol and the process of antigen retrieval and non-specific binding blocking is the same as the previous IHC.
For the multiplexed immunofluorescence of CD4, CD8, PD-1, TIM3, TIGIT, and DAPI (for nuclear staining) in the FFPE tissue, we used a validated multiple fluorescence staining kit from Servicebio (Wuhan, China), according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. The following primary antibodies were used: mouse anti-human PD-1 (Abcam, ab52587, 1:200), rabbit anti-human TIGIT (Abcam, ab243903, 1:200), rabbit anti-human TIM3 (Abcam, ab185703, 1:400), and rabbit anti-human CD8 (Abcam, ab4055, 1:200). After the slides are incubated with each primary antibody and the corresponding HRP-labeled secondary antibody, the slides need to be labeled with different fluorescent dyes. The sample scanning, spectral unmixing, and quantification of signals were conducted with the panoramic MIDI Pathology Imaging System, using the CaseViewer V.2.3 software of 3DHISTECH.

Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis were conducted with standard procedures. BTK protein positive signals primarily located in the cell cytoplasm, which were counted according to the brown diaminobenzidine precipitate. The purified standard BTK (C481S, Human, full-length recombinant, MW: 77 kDa, Promega, Wisconsin, USA) as loading control. Western blotting was performed using the standard method. Briefly, after preparation of whole-cell lysates, proteins were separated through sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and were then transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. Specific primary antibodies used were anti-BTK (1:600, sc-81159; Santa Cruz), anti-T cell immunoglobulin-3 (TIM-3) (1:1000, ab185703, rabbit; Abcam), CD133 (1:1000, ab19898, rabbit; Abcam), vimentin (1:1000, ab137321, rabbit; Abcam), and anti-phospho-Btk (Tyr223) (1:1000, #5082, rabbit mAb; Cell Signaling). Anti-GAPDH (1:10000, sc-47724, Mouse mAb; Santa Cruz) served as the loading control.

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.
