Neuroendocrine Tumor Histopathological Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All specimens were pathologically reviewed and assessed retrospectively by two investigators (K.I and M.K). Maximum tumor size was determined based on H.E. slides and neuroendocrine differentiation was assessed by positive immunohistochemical staining for chromogranin A (diluted 1:200, clone DAK-A3, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), synaptophysin (ready to use, DAK-A3, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), and CD56 in all cases (diluted 1:50, clone 123C3, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark). Tumor specimens were considered positive for neuroendocrine markers if more than 5% of tumor cells were stained. All tumors are positive for at least two of three neuroendocrine markers. Elastica and D2–40 staining was used in all cases to assess lymph-vascular invasion (diluted 1:200, clone D2–40, Acris, Herford, Germany). The Ki-67 and mitotic index was evaluated, and grading was performed according to the WHO classification 201015 . Lymphatic invasion and venous invasion were assessed as reported previously27 (link). Lymph node metastasis was confirmed histologically using surgical specimens, and distant metastases were evaluated either radiologically or histologically.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissue microarrays were constructed as described previously.26 (link) Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed using mouse anti-human CD3 (Abcam, clone SP7), mouse anti-human CD8 (Dako, clone C8/144B), rabbit anti-human TIGIT (Abcam, clone BLR047F), and mouse anti-human CD56 (Dako, clone 123C3). TIL and IHC expression scores were determined by a blinded pathologist (MAD). TIL scores were calculated on H&E-stained slides as follows: 3 (>20 TIL/high-power field (hpf)), 2 (11–20 TIL/hpf), 1 (1–10 TIL/hpf), 0 (<1 TIL/hpf). IHC expression for CD3, CD8, CD56, and TIGIT was calculated as follows to derive an H-score: [1x (% 1+cells)+2x(% 2+cells)+3x(% 3+cells)] where 1+, 2+, and 3+ represent weak, moderate, and strong stain intensity, respectively. Final TIL and IHC expression scores were averaged when more than one consecutive section was present for scoring. PD-L1 staining of tumor samples was performed using a CLIA-certified laboratory.

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Thyroid Nodules

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The primary antibodies included antibodies against CK19 (Dako, Clone RCK108), galectin-3 (Invitrogen, A3A12), HBME-1 (Dako, Clone HBME-1), and CD56 (Dako, Clone 123C3). The antigen retrieval buffer was EDTA (pH 9.0), the temperature was 98 °C, and the duration was 20 min. We used EnVision FLEX + Mouse LINKER to amplify the signal, the EnVision FLEX Mini Kit to visualize the immunohistochemistry (IHC) reaction, and the Autostainer Link 48 (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) to complete the procedure. The normal thyroid follicles around the nodules were the best IHC staining and evaluation controls for CD56. For CK19, galectin-3, and HBME-1, the known positive samples were put side by side with the target samples on each slide as controls.

Neuroendocrine Marker Analysis in FFPE Tumor Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded tumor samples were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using antibodies to CD56 (Dako, clone 123C3, 1:100), Syn (Dako, clone DAK-SYNAP, 1:50), INSM1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, clone A-8, 1:400), and CgA (Dako, clone DAK-A3, 1:100). The experimental procedure was performed by following the manufacturer's instructions, and IHC stains were evaluated by two pathologists. Expression of each neuroendocrine marker was semi-quantified using H-scores (range 0–300), which incorporate the staining intensity (range 0–3+) and the percentage of positively-stained tumor cells (range 0–100%).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of NK Cells in Murine Tumor Models

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tumors from the s.c and i.c mouse models were collected and fixed in 5% paraformaldehyde to confirm the presence of NK cells at tumor sites. They were then embedded in paraffin, sectioned into 4 μm coronal sections by using a microtome, and prepared for immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. The antibodies used for the IHC experiment were anti-human CD56 (1:50 dilution; Code No. M7304; clone 123C3; DAKO; Denmark) and anti-human CD45RO (LCA; 1:100 dilution; Code No. M0701; clone 2B11+PD7/26; DAKO; Denmark). Tumor slides were scanned using the Aperio Scan Scope System (Aperio, Technology, Vista, CA, USA).

Following the diagnostic report, a representative slide was selected from each adenoma case. Four-micron paraffin sections were cut, dewaxed, hydrated, and submitted for immunohistochemistry. Immunohistochemical analysis with antibodies for Galectin3 (Cell Marque/SIGMA-ALDRICH, Monoclonal Mouse Antibody, Clone 9C4, Dilution 1:25), CK19 (Dako, Agilent, Monoclonal Mouse Antibody, Clone RCK108, Prediluted), CD56 (Dako, Agilent, Monoclonal Mouse Antibody, Clone 123C3, Dilution 1:100), and HBME1 (Dako, Agilent, Monoclonal Mouse Antibody, Clone HBME-1, Dilution 1:50) was performed in each case using an automatized immunostainer (Omnis, Agilent).

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks were cut into 2 µm sections and transferred to glass slides (X-tra® adhesive, Leica Biosystems, Nussloch, Germany). After drying overnight at 37 °C, slides were deparaffinized with xylene and rehydrated with ethanol. For antigen retrieval slides were either subjected to water bath for 30 min at 92 °C according to manufacturer’s instructions (Trilogy-solution 1:100; Cell Marque Corporation, Rocklin, USA) followed by washing with water and TBS buffer. Following a 3 min wash with water, the slides were then processed on the Autostainer Link 48 (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) using an automated staining protocol (Dako EnVision™ Flex, Code K8000). All primary antibodies were monoclonal mouse antibodies (Ki-67: clone MIB-1, 1:200, Dako; Chromogranin A: clone DAK-A3, 1:800, Dako; Synaptophysin: clone DAK-SYNAP, ready-to-use; CD56: Clone 123C3, ready-to-use) and exposition time was 30 minutes. Counterstaining was performed with hematoxylin.

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.
