Cytokeratin ae1 ae3

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies
Sourced in United Kingdom, Denmark, United States

Cytokeratin AE1/AE3 is a lab equipment product used for the identification and classification of epithelial cells. It is a cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies that recognize a broad spectrum of cytokeratins, which are proteins found in the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. This product is commonly used in immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry applications to detect the presence and distribution of epithelial cells in tissue samples.

Intraoperative Lymph Node Staging in Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All the SNs were subjected to intraoperative pathological evaluation. All the other LNs, including the non-radioactive and non-fluorescent LNs, were considered non-SNs. The non-SNs were divided longitudinally into 2 specimens, and a single representative cross section was stained with haematoxylin-eosin (HE) for a final postoperative diagnosis. The SNs were cut into 2-mm blocks, and 4-µm sections from each block were used for intraoperative frozen section analysis. Additional sections were stained with HE and the cytokeratinAE1/AE3 (Agilent Technologies) stain for a final postoperative diagnosis.
Occult metastases were classified into 3 categories (8 (link)): Isolated tumour cells (ITCs; <0.2 mm in diameter), micrometastases (0.2-2 mm), and macrometastases (>2 mm). Macrometastasis and micrometastasis were considered indicative of pathological positivity for LN metastasis but ITCs were not.

Following BME-2 dissociation, organoids were gently pelleted and fixed in 10% neutral formalin before paraffin embedding and sectioning. Paraffin embedded sections of 3.5 μm were stained by a Bond Max autostainer according to the manufacturer’s instruction (Leica Microsystems). Primary antibodies cytokeratin (AE1/AE3, 1:100, Dako), Ki67 (8D5, 1:400, Cell Signalling Technology), and p53 (D07, 1:50, Leica) were applied with negative controls as previously described2 (link).

Cytokeratin AE1/AE3 Immunohistochemistry

Immunohistochemical staining was performed according to conventional protocols. In brief, 4-µm-thick formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections were processed for deparaffinization, antigen retrieval, and endo-blocking and then incubated with primary antibody cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (1:100, Dako, Cambridgeshire, UK). After washing, the slides were incubated with secondary antibody (K5007, Dako Real Envision/HRP) for 30 minutes at room temperature and were then visualized with DAB (K5007, Dako Real DAB+Chromogen) and counterstained with hematoxylin.

Trichrome and periodic acid Schiff (PAS) using standard histologic techniques. Tissue was also stained with antibodies to collagen III (BioGenex, San Ramon, CA; Monoclonal clone HWD1.1; at 1:80 titration), cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (Dako, Carpinteria, CA; prediluted), Cytokeratin CAM 5.2 (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA; prediluted) cytokeratin cocktail (AE1/AE3;CAM5.2), cytokeratin MNF-116 (Dako; at 1/100), and CD34 (Dako; Monoclonal clone QBEND; at 1:320 titration). IHC was performed with automated stainers similar to methods previously published [1 (link), 26 ].

All of the samples were fixed in 10% formalin, routinely processed and embedded in paraffin wax. Then, 4-mm thick sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Furthermore, sections from each case were subjected to appropriately controlled immunohistochemical reactions employing cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA; Dako), p53 protein (Dako), p63 protein (Dako), vimentin (Dako), desmin (Dako), and S-100 protein (Dako). All cutaneous carcinosarcomas specimens were evaluated by two dermatopathologists.

Multiplex Immunophenotyping of Tissue Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cytokeratin (AE1/AE3, Dako, 1:50) was used as an epithelial marker, while Mac387, CD163, CD68 and Ham56 (Dako, 1: 20) were used as macrophage markers, DC-SIGN was used as a dendritic cell marker, Langerin was used as a Langerhans cell marker, CD3 as a T cell marker, and CD20 as a B cell marker. Double immunofluorescence-FISH was performed as for ISH, with additional immunofluorescence detection performed by incubating primary antibodies overnight before the detection of signals with the appropriate fluorescent secondary antibodies. ISH signals were detected using anti-digoxigenin alkaline phosphatase conjugate and HNPP/Fast Red TR mix (Roche). The secondary antibody for immunofluorescence was generally anti-mouse fluorescein thiocyanate (FITC) (Invitrogen). Nuclei were counterstained with 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) in anti-fade mounting medium (Vectashield, Vector Laboratories).

Paraffin embedded sections of 3.5 μm were stained by a Bond Max autostainer according to the manufacturer’s instruction (Leica Microsystems). Primary antibodies cytokeratin (AE1/AE3, 1:100, Dako), Vimentin (D21H3, 1:100, Cell Signaling Technology), and p53 (D07, 1:50, Leica) were optimized and applied with negative controls.

Lymph Node Aspiration and Lung Tumor Biopsy Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The aspiration material obtained from the lymph node was separated into two parts; its small portion was available for cytological investigation. The specimen was air-dried and Hemacolor-stained (MERCK, Darmstadt, Germany) at bedside according to the manufacturer's instructions and a portion was fixed in 95% ethanol and stained with Papanicolaou as ordinary methods. The larger part of the aspiration material obtained from the lymph node and the biopsy material taken from the lung tumor were immediately immersed in 20% buffered neutral formalin, fixed overnight, and embedded in paraffin. These specimens were then sectioned and used for hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemistry with antibodies for EMA (DAKO, Glostrup, Denmark), p63 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA), cytokeratin AE1/AE3 (DAKO), cytokeratin CAM 5.2 (Becton, Dickinson and Company, CA, USA), CD138 (DAKO), vimentin (DAKO), and others, and FISH, as reported previously [8 (link)].

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.
