Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed as previously reported42 (link). Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections (4 μm) were prepared on Superfrost Plus microscope slides (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Sections were deparaffinized followed by antigen retrieval in CC1 buffer (pH 9, 95°C; Roche), endogenous peroxidase blocking, and then incubation with primary antibodies. Chromogenic detection was performed with VECTASTAIN Elite ABC-HRP kit (Vector Laboratories) followed by counterstaining with hematoxylin. Images were recorded with the Aperio Leica ScanScope XT (Leica Biosystems, Richmond, IL) using x20 objective lens. Primary antibodies used for this study are listed in Supplementary Table S1.
