Summary and explanation
PD-1 is one the most important inhibitory co-receptors expressed on activated T cells. The PD-1 molecule comprises of an extracellular IgV domain, a hydrophobic transmembrane region, and an intracellular domain containing potential phosphorylation sites that are located in the immune tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) and immune receptor inhibitory tyrosine-based switch motif (ITSM). The PD-1 receptor has two ligands, PD-L1 (B7-H1 or CD274) and PD-L2 (B7-DC or CD273), which are shared by a co-inhibitory receptor CD80 (B7-1).
Principle of the procedure
The stated primary antibody is suitable for immunohistochemical staining of FFPE tissue sections based on specific antigen-antibody reaction. Using a detection system linked to HRP or alkaline phosphatase the antigen visualization is performed via specific binding of the primary antibody. Secondary antibody is binding to the primary antibody, and the enzyme complex labels this complex. The enzymatic activation of the chromogen results in a visible reaction product at the antigen site. Each step is incubated for a precise time and temperature and requires interposed washing steps. The specimen may then be counterstained. Results are interpreted using a light microscope.
Staining procedure
- Cut 3-4 μm section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue and place on positively charged slides.
- Dry at 65°C for 2 hours.
- Deparaffinize, rehydrate, and epitope retrieve. Upon completion, rinse with 3 changes of distilled or deionized water.
- If using HRP detection system, place slides in peroxide block for 10 minutes; rinse. If using AP detection system, omit this step.
- Apply the antibody and incubate for 60 minutes; rinse.
- Apply the InSituVison™ Polymer Rabbit/Mouse Detection System for 30 minutes; rinse.
- Apply ample amount of DAB or AEC chromogen and incubate; rinse.
- Dehydrate and coverslip.
Interpretation of results
The immunostaining procedure causes a colored reaction product to precipitate at the antigen sites localized by the primary antibody.
Cellular localization: Cytoplasm.
A qualified pathologist experienced in immunohistochemistry procedures must evaluate positive and negative tissue controls before interpreting patient specimens.
Positive staining intensity should be assessed within the context of any background staining of the negative reagent control.
Note: A negative result means that the antigen in question was not detected, but not that the antigen is not present in the cells/tissues tested. An antibody panel may be used to support the results in some circumstances. Additionally, the morphology of each tissue sample should be examined utilizing a hematoxylin and eosin stained section. A qualified pathologist must interpret the patient’s morphologic findings and pertinent clinical data.
