Immunohistochemical Analysis of CD3 and CD20

For light microscopy, 4 μm thick sections from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue were automatically stained with hematoxylin and eosin in a Sakura Tissue-Tek Prisma instrument (Sakura Finetek, Torrance, California, USA). The immunostainings were done on a Dako Autostainer instrument (Dako, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, California, USA, model Link 48), and the incubation time for the primary antibodies was 20 min. CD3 was immunostained by clone SP7 (a monoclonal rabbit antibody, diluted 1:150; Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA; cat. no. RM-9107), and CD20 was immunostained by clone L26 (a mouse IgG2a antibody, diluted 1:600; Dako, cat. no. M0755). The secondary detection was performed with Dako EnVision
TM Flex (Dako, cat. no. K8000) for 20 min, followed by diaminobenzidine (DAB) staining for 10 min. The slides were thereafter treated with CuSO4 for 5 min before contrastaining with hematoxylin. Samples were examined with a Nikon Eclipse model N
i-U microscope (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with Nikon Plan-Fluor objective lenses (2×, 20×, and 40×) and images were taken with an Infinity 2 digital camera (Lumenera Corporation, Nepean, Ontario, Canada).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of CD45 in Tumor Tissue

Representative areas for the amount of inflammation in each tumor were chosen. The immunostaining was done on 2.5 μm thick FFPE tumor tissue using a Dako Autostainer instrument (Dako, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, California, USA, model Link 48). Epitope retrieval was performed with Dako Flex HpH according to the manufacturer's protocol (Dako EnVision FLEX, Cat-no: K8000). Tissue sections were incubated for 20 min with primary anti-CD45 monoclonal antibodies (clones 2B11 and PD7/26, diluted 1:300; Dako, Cat-no: M0701). The secondary detection was performed with Dako EnVision TM Flex (Dako, Cat-no: K8000) for 20 min, followed by diaminobenzidine (DAB) staining for 10 min (Dako EnVision FLEX, Cat-no. K800021-2). The slides were thereafter treated with 0.5% CuSO4 for 5 min before counterstaining with hematoxylin (Merck, Cat-no: 1.15938.0100) to visualize cell nuclei. Tissue sections were examined with a Nikon Eclipse model N i-U microscope (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with Nikon Plan-Fluor objective lenses (2×, 10×, 20×, 40×, and 60×) and images were taken with an Infinity 2 digital camera (Lumenera Corporation, Nepean, Ontario, Canada).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of MDI Exposure

Studies were performed on replicate samples of cytospun airway cells obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung tissue sections of MDI exposed or control mice acquired during prior studies as previously reported (Wisnewski, Liu et al. 2015 (link)). Cytospun BAL cells fixed with −20°C methanol and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections were blocked with 20% goat serum and stained with 2 μg/ml of KLH-depleted, protein-A affinity purified anti-MDI rabbit IgG, or 2 μg/ml of isotype control protein-A purified polyclonal rabbit IgG raised against IL-33 or 2 μg/ml protein-A purified normal rabbit IgG (not shown). Endogenous peroxidase was quenched before analysis using H2O2, and endogenous biotin was blocked before addition of biotin-labeled mouse monoclonal anti-rabbit IgG (with no cross-reactivity to other species IgG) using commercially available “biotin-blocking solution” (see Section 2.1 above). Slides were further developed with peroxidase-labeled streptavidin, DAB substrate, and hematoxylin counterstain. Micrographs were taken under a Nikon Eclipse NI-U model microscope (Tokyo, Japan) equipped with a Nikon DS-Ri2 image capture system and loaded into Nikon’s NIS-Elements Basic Research software program for image analysis.

Microscopic imaging was by an Eclipse Ni-U Model microscope (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan). Phase-contrast cellular morphology and Hoechst 33,258 fluorescence nuclear morphology were performed as previously described.27 (link) Nuclei that were brightly stained, granular, and punctate were considered apoptotic.

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.
