Fresh-frozen liver sections were incubated with antibody to C1q (ab11861, Abcam, 1:50 dilution), and formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded liver sections were incubated as described (23 (link)) with antibodies to C3d (AF2655, R&D, 1:500 dilution), MAC (ab55811, Abcam, 1:800 dilution), C1q (ab11861, Abcam, 1:50 dilution), MPO (PA5-16672, Thermo Fisher, 1:400 dilution), 3-chlorotyrosine (HP5002, Hycult Biotech, 1:200 dilution), F4/80 (70076s, CST, 1:500 dilution), and VCAM-1 (MA5- 31965, Thermo Fisher, 1:400 dilution), followed by incubation with secondary antibody (HRP-polymer detection kit PV-9001, PV-9003 or PV-9004, Zsbio), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Immunohistochemistry results were graded based on the staining intensity and percent positive cells as described (24 (link)).
