Tissue microarrays were performed using the SIDSCO-TMA70 system (Scientific Integration Design Service Corp., Kaohsiung, Taiwan). Two tissue blocks were prepared for each case. In addition to hematoxylin and eosin staining, the sections were immunostained with the following primary antibodies: p-JAK2 (1:100, ab108596, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), p-STAT1 (1:200, #9167s, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), p-STAT3 (1:200, #9145s, Cell Signaling Technology), p-STAT5 (1:400, #9314s, Cell Signaling Technology), and p-STAT6 (1:100, ab28829, Abcam, Cambridge, UK). Sections were then incubated with goat anti-rabbit HRP. Finally, all slides were mounted with xylene-based mounting medium and scanned at 400× using the MoticEasyScan Pro (Motic in Asia, Xiamen, China). The quantitative intensity of staining was analyzed using Image-Pro Plus software (Version 6.0, Media Cybernetics, LP, USA). The immunohistochemistry intensity was determined as follows: staining percentage ≤25% positive cells as weak staining (-); 26–50% positive cells as mild to moderate staining (+/++); and >65% positive cells as intense staining (+++).

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.
