INTRODUCTION

Designing a Successful IHC/ICC Experiment

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunocytochemistry (ICC) are techniques employed to localize antigen expression and are dependent on specific epitope-antibody interactions. IHC refers to the use of tissue sections, whereas ICC describes the use of cultured cells or cell suspensions. In both methods, positive staining is visualized using a molecular label, which can be fluorescent or chromogenic. Briefly, samples are fixed to preserve cellular integrity, and then subjected to incubation with blocking reagents to prevent non-specific binding of the antibodies. Samples are subsequently incubated with primary and secondary antibodies, and the signal is visualized for microscopic analysis.

Technically, IHC/ICC are relatively simple and straightforward experimental methods. However, there are many variables which must be recognized and optimized for each individual IHC/ICC study. The most challenging aspect of these techniques is determining the experimental conditions necessary to generate a strong and specific signal for each antigen of interest. For example, detection of an abundant protein in cultured cells may require a short fixation period, minimal blocking, and may be compatible with direct visualization using a flurochrome-conjugated primary antibody. In contrast, detection of a phosphorylation-dependent epitope in a section of frozen tissue may require antigen retrieval and be dependent on amplified chromogenic visualization. This guide provides information on the IHC/ICC variables listed below and is intended to assist in the design, optimization, and troubleshooting of IHC/ICC experiments.

INTRODUCTION

Sample Preparation

Tissue and cell samples must be appropriately harvested and prepared for each IHC/ICC study. To facilitate the required incubation steps, whole tissues must be cut into ultra thin (5-10 mm) sections or cut into smaller pieces for whole mount IHC. For ICC experiments, cells must be attached to a microscope slide or coverslip before commencing the staining procedure. Sample preparation is also intimately linked to the method of fixation, which in turn is influenced by the desired detection technique (fluorescence versus chromo genic). In most circumstances, one experimental variable will determine the most appropriate method of sample preparation. For example, tissue that is immersion-fixed in formaldehyde must be paraffin-embedded and cut using a microtome. Alternatively, to detect a phosphorylation-dependent epitope, tissue may need to be snap frozen, which requires a cryostat for sample sectioning followed by alcohol fixation.

Paraffin-embedded TissueParaffin embedding offers the best option for long-term preservation of tissue samples. Tissue must be fixed before being embedded in paraffin. Fixation can be achieved by perfusion or immersion immediately following dissection, and typically requires 4-24 hours. It is not recommended to fix tissue for more than 24 hours because overfixation can cause masking of the antigen (see page 10). If necessary, tissues can be transferred to alcohol after fixation until there is time for the embedding process.

Because paraffin is immiscible with water, tissue must be dehydrated be-fore adding molten paraffin wax. Dehydration is achieved by immersion in increasing concentrations of alcohol. This approach allows for a gradual change in hydropho bicity and minimizes cell damage. Following dehydration, the tissue is incubated with xylene to clear any remaining ethanol. Paraffin is typi cally heated to 60 ˚C for embedding and is subsequently allowed to harden overnight. The tissue is subsequently cut with a sharp blade into ultra thin slices using a microtome. Sections are then dried onto micro scope slides and can be stored at room temperature for extended periods of time. Tissue sections must be rehydrated before commencing the IHC/ICC protocol (see page 14). Paraffin is the cheapest and most commonly used substance for tissue embedding. However, tissue can also be embedded in plastic, which sets harder and allows thinner tissue sections (1.5 mm versus 5 mm).

Frozen TissueOne of the benefits of frozen tissue samples is the time saved by omitting the initial fixation step required for paraffin-embedded tissue. Snap freezing can be particularly beneficial when detecting post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation. Frozen tissue can be prepared by immersing the tissue in liquid nitrogen or isopentane, or by burying it in dry ice. For frozen samples, a short fixation is done after freezing and sectioning. Frozen tissue sec tions are most often fixed using alcohol, which avoids the possible requirement to retrieve epitopes masked by formaldehyde cross-linking. Frozen tissue is cut on a cryostat and sections can be stored at - 80 ˚C for up to 1 year.

Frozen tissue sections can be processed in a shorter amount of time than paraffin-embedded sections. However, freezing is not adequate for long-term preservation of the tissues and the formation of ice crystals within the cells may negatively affect subcellular detail. In addition, frozen sections are often thicker than paraffin sections. This can increase the potential for lower microscopic resolution and poor images of tissue morphology. Because frozen tissue often retains enzymatic activities, blocking the functions of endogenous enzymes that may affect the IHC detection method is also particularly important (see page 5).

Cell SamplesTo perform ICC studies, the cells must first be attached to a solid support, such as a microscope slide or coverslip. This is simple with adherent cells, which can be grown directly on high-grade, sterilized coverslips placed on the bottom of a 6- or 24-well plate. Cell adhesion can be enhanced by pre-coating the coverslip with a charged polymer like Poly-L-Lysine and/or an extracellular matrix protein such as Laminin, Fibronectin, or Collagen. All steps of the staining process can be performed with the coverslip in the microplate by adding the appropriate solution to each well and removing solutions by aspiration. Cells in suspension can be adhered to a slide by Cytospin® centrifugation or by a 10 minute incubation of the cells on slides that have been coated with Poly-L-Lysine.

Note: It is important to be able to recognize artifacts of poorly prepared samples in order to properly interpret results. For example, folds or tears in the tissue, or bubbles between the tissue/cells and the slide, can collect staining reagents non-specifically and obscure positive staining or lead to false-positive signals.

INTRODUCTION

Fixation

All samples used in IHC/ICC experiments must be fixed to preserve tissue morphology and retain the antigenicity of the target molecules. Fixation alters the chemical composition of tissues and often requires a compromise between preserving tissue structure and preserving the epitope. Incomplete fixation (underfixation) of cells or tissues may allow rapid proteolytic degradation of target proteins within the tissue and can reduce specific immunoreactivity. However, excessive fixation (overfixation) may result in masking of the epitope or in strong non-specific background staining that can obscure specific labeling. As discussed in the previous section, the method and timing of fixation must be considered in terms of sample preparation. In addition, duration, temperature, and pH will all affect the degree of fixation.

FormaldehydeFormaldehyde is the most common fixative used to preserve protein targets within tissues and cells. Formaldehyde-mediated tissue fixation is thought to be dependent on the formation of protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid cross-links involving methylene bridges (-CH2-). Formaldehyde can chemically link NH2 (amino) and CONH (peptide) groups, NH2 and NH, or NH2 and NH2 groups.

Formaldehyde is a good choice for most IHC/ICC applications but is not a universal fixative. Overfixation with formaldehyde can modify the amino acids that are part of an epitope and can block an antibody from binding to it. However, in most cases the epitope can be unmasked to restore antibody bind ing using antigen retrieval techniques (see page 10). Formaldehyde has been shown to induce intracellular translocation of phosphorylation-dependent epitopes from the membrane to the cytoplasm. In situations like this, ice cold absolute methanol or absolute ethanol are appropriate alternative fixatives.

Note: Although there are many different fixatives available, formaldehyde is the most commonly used, and is an appropriate starting point for most IHC/ICC experiments. Formaldehyde-based solutions should be aliquoted and frozen, or stored at 4-8 ˚C for no longer than one month. See page 12 for a protocol for making a typical 4% formaldehyde solution.

AlcoholsThe most popular alcohols used for cell and tissue fixation are methanol and ethanol. The molecular structures of methanol and ethanol closely resemble that of water. Therefore, they compete with water for protein hydrogen bonds, replacing water molecules in tissues. This causes pro-teins to precipitate at their isoelectric points by reducing their dielectric constant, and can block antibody-epitope binding due to changes in conformation. While alcohols affect the tertiary structure of proteins by breaking hydrophobic bonds, it appears that they can stabilize the secondary structure of proteins.

However, it is generally thought that alcohols do not preserve tissue morphology as well as formaldehyde-based fixatives. Alcohols do not penetrate as well as formaldehyde and are primarily used to fix frozen tissue sections and cells. Consequently, alcohol fixation is more suitable for membrane surface antigens. Antigen retrieval is not recommended following alcohol fixation as it is generally considered too harsh and will likely compromise the integrity of the tissue sections or cells.

AcetoneAcetone is a strong dehydrating agent, which can cause irreversible pre-cipitation of tissue proteins. It is usually used on sections of unfixed, snap-frozen tissues, followed by fixation with alcohols or formaldehyde.

Fixation of Tissues Whole animal perfusion fixation is often the best way to preserve antigens when studying intact tissues of small animals such as mice, rats, and guinea pigs. It involves replacing the animal’s systemic blood with a fixative solution. However, whole animal perfusion may not be sufficient to fix the tissues of interest. In cases such as these, dissected tissues can be immersed in the fixative. For example, 4% formaldehyde in PBS is a commonly used solution for perfusion and immersion fixation of tissues.

To enhance penetration of the fixative during immersion fixation, it is recommended that tissues be no thicker than 10 mm. For complete fix a tion, the volume of the fixative should be 50-100 times larger than the volume of the tissue. Fixation is usually achieved at room temperature for 4-24 hours. It is very important to optimize fixation conditions since underfixation or overfixation may reduce or abolish tissue immunoreac tivity.

Fixation of Cultured CellsIn contrast to tissue samples, cultured cells can be fixed for a shorter period of time with a less concentrated fixative solution. For example, fix-ation with a 2% formaldehyde solution for 20 minutes at room tempera-ture is often sufficient to preserve both cellular morphology and antigenicity.

Fixation of cultured cells is usually achieved by simply discarding the culture medium and adding the fixative solution. However, the change in surface tension following removal of the culture medium can damage some cell types. If this is the case, the fixative can be added directly into the culture medium. For example, adding the same volume of 4% form-aldehyde as the volume of culture medium will result in a 2% formalde-hyde solution, which is strong enough to pre-fix the cells. After 2 minutes, the pre-fixation culture medium should be replaced with a fresh volume of 2% fixative. The pre-fixation step makes the cells more rigid so they can withstand any potential deleterious effects created by changes in surface tension.

Note: Fixa tion can result in hydrophobic cross-linking of tissue proteins. The time, temperature, pH, and fixative used will determine the degree of cross-linking. Once the fixation protocol has been optimized, the same pro cedure should be used consistently.

INTRODUCTION

Preventing Non-specific Staining

Once the tissue or cell samples have been appropriately prepared and fixed, the samples are ready to be stained. All IHC/ICC studies are dependent on specific antibody-epitope binding, which is governed by hydrophobic interactions, ionic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and other intermolecular forces. However, the same attractive forces can also result in non-specific staining, i.e. binding of the primary antibody to amino acids other than those within the desired epitope of the antigen. This is a common problem that occurs in IHC/ICC experiments. The challenge is to reduce non-specific interactions without impairing antibody-epitope binding. Causes of non-specific staining include interactions of the primary and secondary antibodies with serum proteins, ionic interactions between antibodies and tissues, and interactions with endogenous molecules capable of affecting the IHC detection system used. These issues can result in high background and an inability to visualize the antigen of interest in its appropriate cellular location. Staining problems of this type can be addressed by blocking non-specific interactions using a blocking reagent. These steps are performed prior to incubation of the sample with the primary antibody.

Preventing Non-specific Hydrophobic InteractionsAlthough hydrophobic interactions play an essential role in epitope-antibody binding, these forces can also promote non-specific binding. Most proteins have some degree of hydrophobicity due to the neutral side chains of several amino acids. Tissue incubation with heat-inactivated normal serum or bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a common procedure used to reduce non-specific hydrophobic binding. Selection of the type of normal serum is important to prevent interactions with the primary or secondary antibodies, or with the tissues/cells being stained. For example, goat serum would not be advised as a blocking reagent for use with a goat-derived primary antibody. Instead, a serum identical to the host animal of the secondary antibody or from an unrelated species is recommended. BSA and non-fat dry milk are also frequently used as blocking reagents. One of these reagents is typically included in the diluents for the primary and secondary antibodies. The addition of non-ionic detergents including 0.3% Triton X-100™ or Tween 20™ can also reduce non-specific hydrophobic interactions.

Preventing Non-specific Ionic InteractionsIf the antibody employed and the target tissue have net opposite charge, ionic interactions can cause non-specific background staining. For ex-ample, non-specific staining may be due to attraction between opposing carboxyl and amino groups. Van der Waals forces, weak electrostatic interactions between dipolar molecules, can also contribute. Increasing the ionic strength of the fixative and/or the antibody diluent buffer can reduce ionic interactions. However, epitope-antibody binding is common-ly dependent on ionic forces, so this approach also has the potential to

negatively impact staining specificity. Due to their single epitope speci-ficity, increasing ionic strength is more likely to impair monoclonal than polyclonal antibody performance.

Endogenous Enzyme InterferenceChromogenic detection methods often use a conjugated enzyme to vis-ualize epitope-antibody interactions. When using this method of detection, the endogenous activity of the same enzyme must be blocked. For example, protocols that include horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or alkaline phospha-tase (AP) may require reagents to prevent non-specific signals. Tissues such as kidney, liver, or vascular areas with red blood cells, contain endogenous peroxidase activity. Peroxidase blocking reagents formulated with 3-10% H2O2 can be used to prevent endogenous peroxidase from cleaving the substrate. Endogenous AP found in intestine, kidney, lymphoid and other tissue can be blocked with 1 mM Levamisole. The intestinal form of AP is unaffected by Levamisole but can be blocked by using 1% acetic acid.

Endogenous Biotin InterferenceStreptavidin binding to a biotinylated primary or secondary antibody is another common detection system that is utilized for IHC/ICC experiments (see page 7). Therefore endogenous biotin must be blocked before strep ta-vidin incubation. Endogenous biotin is found in many tissues including liver, kidney, heart, brain, and lung. Pre-incubation of the sample with avidin is routinely used to block endogenous biotin. This must be followed by a sub-sequent incubation with biotin to block additional biotin binding sites on the avidin molecule. Following these biotin/avidin blocking steps, the sample can be incubat ed with the primary antibody.

Selecting a Primary Antibody SupplierWhen searching for a primary antibody, it is likely that products will be available from several different commercial sources that may offer varying degrees of antibody quality. This initial choice can make the difference between a successful experiment and a missed opportunity. A first step is to look for independent verification. This includes checking for prior successful use of the antibody in the literature. Many commercial suppliers, including R&D Systems, can provide assistance to researchers looking for this information. Another potential question to ask is whether the antibody is actually manufactured by the supplier or is it purchased and resold? Purchasing direct ensures the commercial source has had complete control of manufacturing, quality control processes, and shipping and storage conditions. In addition, the manufacturer may be in the best position to provide quality technical service should questions arise about the use of the antibody.

Selecting a Monoclonal or Polyclonal AntibodyThe inherent features of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies are as-sociated with advantages and limitations when applied to IHC/ICC. Mono-clonal antibodies, produced from a single B cell clone, represent a homo-geneous population that bind with high affinity and specificity to a single epitope. This can be particularly useful when detecting a single member of a protein family that shares a high percentage of amino acid identity.

Antibody binding is often dependent on the target protein maintaining its native conformational state. Access to a desired epitope can be com-promised by interactions with other proteins, post-translational modifica-tions, temperature, pH, fixation, and salt concen tration. Because polyclonal antibodies are heterogeneous and can recognize multiple epitopes, they are less likely to be affected by changes in protein conformation. In general, polyclonal antibodies are also more stable than monoclonal antibodies over a range of pH and salt concentration. For these reasons, polyclonal anti-bodies are more frequently used for IHC/ICC experiments than monoclonal antibodies.

Affinity Purification of Polyclonal AntibodiesPolyclonal antiserum contains a mixture of antibodies produced by a large number of B cell clones. Antibodies comprising polyclonal antiserum bind to target epitopes with different specificities and affinities, as well as cross-react with irrelevant target molecules (non-specific interactions). To enrich for antibodies with the highest specificity and affinity toward the antigen of interest, R&D Systems polyclonal antibodies are antigen affinity purified. During this process polyclonal antiserum is passed through an affinity column containing immobilized antigen molecules. Specific antibodies are retained by the immobilized antigen, whereas non-specific anti bodies pass through the column and are discarded. The retained antigen affinity purified antibodies are subsequently eluted from the column. Antigen af-finity purified antibodies interact predominantly with their target antigen,

reduce background staining, and produce more consistent results com-pared to non-purified antibodies.

Optimization of Primary Antibody IncubationPrimary antibody concentration, diluent, incubation time, and temperature all impact the quality of staining. These variables need to be optimized for each antibody and sample to achieve specific staining and low background. Often optimization is approached by maintaining a constant incubation time and temperature, while varying the antibody concentration to deter-mine when an optimal signal is achieved with low background noise. For example, if a high affinity antibody is used, then the antibody can be used at a relatively high concentration for a shorter incubation time. Alter natively, a high affinity antibody at lower antibody concentration may be used with a longer incubation time. Longer incubation durations are often employed to ensure penetration throughout tissue sections used for stereological tech niques. To promote specific staining, longer incubation periods are often conducted at lower temperatures (i.e. 4 ˚C versus room temperature).

Optimization of R&D Systems staining protocols for tissue sections typi-cally begin with an overnight incubation with the primary antibody at 4 ̊ C. For staining cells, a 1 hour incubation with the primary antibody at room temperature is a common starting point. The working dilution of an anti-gen affinity purified polyclonal antibody is generally lower (from 1.7-15 mg/mL) than that of a monoclonal antibody (5-25 mg/mL). When comparing samples stained with different concentrations of the same antibody, it is im portant to use a consistent time and temperature for the incubation step. When working with a new antibody for the first time, it is recom-mended to conduct preliminary studies testing a broad range of antibody concentrations.

Primary Antibody Selection & Optimization

The most important factor when designing an IHC/ICC experiment is selection of the primary antibody. In turn, the critical feature of a primary antibody is specificity for the epitope. All steps of an IHC/ICC experiment must be optimized to visualize specific staining and minimize non-specific background signals. This includes performing initial studies to determine the appropriate incubation conditions for each primary antibody. The working dilution for an antigen affinity-purified polyclonal antibody is generally lower than that of a monoclonal antibody but these values must be determined empirically. To achieve a robust and specific signal, a high quality antibody that exhibits minimal cross-reactivity should be employed.

Detection & Visualization

Following incubation with the primary antibody, antibody binding is visualized using an appropriate detection system. The method of detection can be direct or indirect, and may generate a fluorescent or chromogenic signal. Direct detection involves the use of primary antibodies that are directly conjugated to a label. Indirect detection methods utilize a labeled secondary antibody raised against the primary antibody host species. Indirect methods can also include amplification steps to increase signal intensity. Commonly used labels for the visualization of epitope-antibody interactions include fluorophores and enzymes that convert soluble substrates into insoluble, chromogenic end products. The choice of label is affected by the detection method employed, personal preference, and the type microscope equipment that is available

Direct or Indirect Detection, & AmplificationThe choice of whether to use direct or indirect detection is often dictated by the level of antigen expression. For example, detection of a highly expressed epitope might be possible using a primary antibody directly conjugated to a label. Advantages of direct detection include the ease of use for multicolor staining and the elimination of concerns regarding non-specific binding of the secondary antibody. The major disadvantage is that direct detection may lack the sensitivity required to visualize lower expression levels. In rare cases the conjugation process may also have a negative impact on the affinity of the primary antibody.

In contrast, indirect detection methods generally have a higher level of sensitivity and generate a more intense signal. The signal is amplified us ing the indirect method because of the potential for at least two labeled secondary antibodies to bind to each primary antibody. However, the use of a secondary antibody requires extra blocking steps and additional controls.

Further amplification of the signal can be achieved by taking advantage of the strong affinity of avidin and streptavidin to bind biotin. Avidin is a glycopro tein in egg white that combines stoichiometrically with biotin. Streptavidin is purified from the bacterium Streptomyces avidinii, is not glycosylated, and exhibits lower non-specific binding than avidin. Both proteins bind four biotins per molecule. If a biotinylated secondary anti-body is employed, the signal can be significantly amplified by subsequent incubation with an avidin-biotin complex (ABC Method), or labeled streptavidin-biotin (LSAB Method). Streptavidin may be conju gated to a detection enzyme (i.e. horseradish peroxidase or alka line phosphatase) or fluorochrome. Using these amplification methods requires additional steps to prevent non-specific binding (see page 5).

Fluorescence Detection Fluorescence detection is based on the use of fluorochromes that emit light when excited by light of a shorter wavelength. The fluorochrome can be conjugated directly to the primary or secondary antibody, or to streptavidin. Immunofluorescence is commonly used for the simultaneous visualization of multiple cellular targets. For example, tissues can be incubated with a mixture of different primary antibodies followed by incubation with secondary reagents conjugated to fluorochromes that emit light at different wavelengths.

Multicolor experiments must be designed to limit cross-reactivity between the detection reagents and crossover between the spectral properties of the fluorochromes being used. To limit cross-reactivity between secondary reagents, the primary antibodies should be derived from different species. This allows for the use of species-specific secondary antibodies that recognize only one primary antibody. However, there may be some instances when it is necessary to simultaneously use antibodies from the same species. This can be achieved using a biotinylated form of one of the primary antibodies. When using this technique, tissues must be incubated with the non-biotinylated antibody first, followed by incubation with the fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibody. The tissues are then incubated with the biotinylated primary antibody followed by incubation with a streptavidin-conjugated fluorochrome. This approach will ensure that the streptavidin conjugate will only bind the biotinylated antibody, limiting cross-reactivity.

Chromogenic DetectionTo facilitate chromogenic detection, the primary antibody, secondary anti-body, or streptavidin is conjugated to an enzyme. When a soluble organic substrate is applied, the enzyme reacts with the substrate to generate an insoluble colored product that is localized to the sites of antigen expression. Commonly used enzymes include horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and al kaline phosphatase, which convert 3,3' diaminobenzidine (DAB) and 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole (AEC), into brown and red end prod ucts, re-spectively. DAB is more commonly used than AEC since the latter is soluble in alcohol and is more prone to fade when exposed to excessive light. Aqueous counterstain and mounting media must be used with AEC.

Chromogenic detection is considered to be more sensitive than that of immunofluorescence, but is less convenient because it includes more incubation and blocking steps. Like immunofluorescence, chromogenic detection allows for the visualization of multiple antigens, but only if the antigens are confined to different locations in the cell and tissue because overlapping colors may obscure results. An advantage of DAB chromogen-ic staining is that the colored precipitate formed during the reaction between HRP and DAB is not sensitive to light and the slides can be stored for many years. Unlike fluorescence microscopy, which requires a specialized light source and filter sets, chromogenic techniques require only a typical light microscope.

Endogenous Tissue Background Control Certain cells and tissues may have inherent biological properties resulting in background staining that could lead to a misinterpretation of the re-sults. Before applying primary antibodies, cells and tissues should be in-spected under the microscope using either fluorescence (for fluores cent labels) or bright-field (for chromogenic labels) illumination to ensure there is no signal inherent to the tissue itself. For instance, lipofuscin is an endogenous autofluorescent pigment that can be confused with positive staining.

No Primary Antibody Control A control in which the tissue is incubated with antibody diluent, without the primary anti body included, is always necessary. This is followed by incubation with secondary antibodies and detection reagents. Staining with detection reagents alone should be negligible to the point that it does not obscure specific staining or resemble the specific staining pattern.

Isotype Control This control can be utilized when working with monoclonal primary antibodies. The sample is incubated with antibody diluent, supplemented with a non-immune immuno globulin of the same isotype (for example, IgG1, IgG2A, IgG2B, IgM) and concentration as the primary monoclonal anti-body. The sample is then incubated with the secondary antibody and de-tection reagents. These steps will help ensure that what appears to be spe cific staining was not caused by non-specific interactions of immuno-globulin molecules with the sample. Background staining should be neg-ligible and not resemble specific staining.

Absorption Control To demonstrate that an antibody is binding specifically to the antigen of interest, it is first pre-incubated with the immunogen. This should inactivate the antibody and the tissue should show little or no staining.

The antigen to antibody mixture should be made at a working dilution of 10:1 (molar ratio) and be pre-incubated overnight at 4 ̊ C. The pre-absorbed antibody can then be incubated with tissue in place of the primary antibody alone. The staining pattern produced by the primary anti body can be compared to that produced by the pre-absorbed antibody.

Absorption controls work better if the immunogens are peptides. However, if antibodies were raised against the whole protein, addition of the mixture of antibody plus protein may result in higher non-specific staining. Although the mechanism is unclear, the antigen used for pre-absorption may itself bind to the tissue and result in non-specific staining. Thus, it is important to note that an absorption control using whole protein may not always confirm the specificity of an antibody for the protein in the tissue.

Tissue Type Control Additional controls for IHC/ICC experiments include using tissue samples that are known to express (or not express) the epitope of interest. This strategy can provide a useful reference and may also be utilized during initial optimization studies. Tissue from transgenic animals that overexpress or do not express the antigen can be particularly useful. In addition, tissue samples from different species can be included to support the species-specificity of an antibody.

Limitations of Western Blot ComparisonsWestern blot experiments are often conducted to complement and support IHC/ICC studies. However, changes in protein conformation during denaturation can result in potentially misleading results. For a given antibody, inconsistent results between Western blot and IHC/ICC studies may simply reflect differences in the experimental conditions employed. Since multiple epitopes are recognized, polyclonal antibodies are less vulnerable to such experimental artifacts.

IHC/ICC Controls

Appropriate controls are critical for the accurate interpretation of IHC/ICC results. A satisfactory IHC/ICC experimental design produces results that demonstrate that the antigen is localized to the correct specialized tissues, cell types, or subcellular location. Optimization of fixation, blocking, antibody incubation, and antigen retrieval steps will generate a strong and specific signal. However, IHC/ICC experiments must include positive and negative controls to support the validity of staining and identify experimental artifacts. In addition, variances in antibody specificity, experimental conditions, biological conditions between tissue types, and even researchers may generate inconsistent staining and lead to inaccurate conclusions. To facilitate consistent performance, detailed record keeping is an important factor for IHC/ICC studies. Here, we describe several established controls that can be used to support the specificity of your IHC/ICC results.

Antigen Retrieval

Although fixation is essential for the preservation of tissue morphology, this process can also have a negative impact on IHC/ICC detection. Fixation can alter protein biochemistry such that the epitope of interest is masked and can no longer bind to the primary antibody. Masking of the epitope can be caused by cross-linking of amino acids within the epitope, cross-linking unrelated peptides at or near an epitope, altering the conformation of an epitope, or altering the electrostatic charge of the antigen. Antigen retrieval refers to any technique in which the masking of an epitope is reversed and epitope-antibody binding is restored.

Antigen Retrieval TechniquesThe need for antigen retrieval depends on multiple variables, including but not limited to, the target antigen, the antibody used, the type of tissue, and the method and duration of fixation. Because they recognize multiple epitopes, polyclonal antibodies are more likely than monoclonal antibod-ies to de tect a given antigen without the use of antigen retrieval techniques.

There are multiple techniques to restore the immunoreactivity of an epitope. Methods as simple as changing the pH or the cation concentration of the antibody diluent can influence the affinity of an antibody for its epitope. For partially masked epitopes it may be appropriate to first try increasing the primary antibody incubation conditions before commen-cing antigen retrieval. However, this step will also require further op-timization in terms of appropriate antibody concentration, incubation time, and temperature. When discussing antigen retrieval methods, tech-niques generally fall into two main categories, protease-induced epitope retrieval (PIER) and heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER). Once optimized, the effects of antigen retrieval can be pronounced.

Protease-induced Epitope Retrieval (PIER) In the PIER method, enzymes including Proteinase K, Trypsin, and Pepsin have been used successfully to restore the binding of an antibody to its epitope. The mechanism of action is thought to be the cleavage of pep-tides that may be masking the epitope. The disadvantages of PIER are the low success rate for restoring immunoreactivity and the potential for destroying both tissue morphology and the antigen of interest.

Heat-induced Epitope Retrieval (HIER)HIER is believed to reverse some cross-links and allows for restoration of secondary or tertiary structure of the epitope. The protocol must be opti-mized for each tissue, fixation method, and antigen to be studied. In gen-eral, HIER has a much higher success rate than PIER.

HIER is performed using microwave ovens, pressure cookers, vegetable steamers, autoclaves, or water baths. Microwaves are an increasingly pop-ular appliance for HIER. These protocols tend to involve 5 minute periods of heat followed by replacement of the buffer. For all HIER methods, slides must be cooled before commencing IHC/ICC incubations. HIER is especially time-, temperature-, buffer-, and pH-sensitive, and the best method must be determined em pirically.

Optimization & Limitations Antigen retrieval may require increased adherence of the sample to the slide or coverslip. In addition, the technique is often too harsh for cryostat tissue sections and alcohol-fixed tissue. The time, temperature, and pH must also be optimized for each appliance (i.e. 5-10 minutes at 92-95 °C in a water bath, versus 1-5 minutes at 120 °C in a pressure cooker). To optimize antigen retrieval preliminary studies must be conducted using a matrix of time, temperature, and pH combinations. The possibility of

artifactual staining should always be considered when using any antigen retrieval methodology. The use of controls to demon strate specific anti-body bind ing should be included since staining is influenced by multiple variables in any given experiment.

R&D Systems offers reagents to improve tissue antigen detection and enhance immunoreactivity. During initial optimization, investigators can compare samples treated with neutral pH 7.0 Universal Antigen Retrieval Solution (Catalog # CTS015) with a slide of the same tissue without antigen retrieval. Subsequent tests using acidic or basic antigen retrieval solutions may be necessary depending on the tissue. At R&D Systems, we find that treatment with Basic Antigen Retrieval reagent (Catalog # CTS013) is frequently successful. We also offer Acidic (Catalog # CTS014) and Sampler (Catalog # CTS016) Antigen Retrieval Reagents. Acidic and basic antigen retrieval solutions are more likely to affect tissue morphology than a neutral solution.

Antigen Retrieval Improves Detection of p27. IHC images show the detection of p27 in paraffin-embedded human prostate cancer sections following incubation of tissue for 10 minutes at 95 ˚C in the specified antigen retrieval solution. Compared to no HIER treatment, p27 detection was enhanced following incubation in neutral (pH 7.0) and basic (pH 9.5) (Catalog # CTS013) but not acidic (pH 5.0) (Catalog # CTS014) antigen retrieval solution. p27 was detected using anti- human/mouse/rat p27 monoclonal antibody (Catalog # MAB22561; brown).

A. Making a 4% Formaldehyde Solution in PBS The vast majority of IHC/ICC procedures employ fixation of tissues and cells using formaldehyde-based fixatives. The protocol below describes the technique for generating a 4% formaldehyde solution in PBS. The most effective fixative must be deter mined experimentally.

Caution: Formaldehyde is toxic, read the MSDS before working with this chemical. Gloves and safety glasses should be worn, and solutions made inside a fume hood.Please read the protocol in its entirety before starting.

The difference between paraformaldehyde, formaldehyde, & formalin. Paraformaldehyde (chemical name is polyoxymethylene) is a powder of polymerized formaldehyde that by itself cannot fix tissues. To be usable as a tissue fixative, paraformaldehyde has to be dissolved in hot water to become a formalde-hyde solution. Formalin is a saturated formaldehyde solution in water (37% by weight, 40% by volume) containing 10-15% methanol. Methanol is added to slow down the poly merization of formaldehyde, which reduces the fixing power of formalin. Formalin can also be made in an alcohol-free form from powdered para formaldehyde.

Formaldehyde Structure. In an aqueous solution, formaldehyde exists primarily as methylene glycol.

B. Preparation of Gelatin-coated Slides for Histological Tissue Sections In order for tissue sections to be retained on histological slides during staining and washing steps, slides need to be coated with adhesive compounds. Although there are a variety of such compounds, gelatin is the most frequently used for histo logical purposes. Please read the protocol in its entirety before starting.

PROCEDURE 1. Prepare the gelatin-coating solution by dissolving 5 g of gelatin

in 1 L of heated, deionized H2O (temperature should not exceed 45 ˚C).

2. After the gelatin has dissolved, add 0.5 g of chromium potassium sulfate. Chromium potassium sulfate will positively charge the slides allowing them to attract negatively charged tissue sections.

3. Filter this solution and store at 2-8 ˚C until use. It is recommended that this solution be filtered again immediately before use (adjust to room temperature before filtration).

4. Place the histological slides into metal racks.

Note: The slides should be cleaned by washing them in soapy water and rinsing them thoroughly, first in tap water and finally in deionized water.

5. Dip the racks containing the slides 3 to 5 times (~5 seconds each) into the gelatin-coating solution.

6. Remove the racks containing the slides and let them drain. Blot excess solution from the racks onto filter paper (gently tap the racks against the filter paper for better drainage).

7. Place the racks containing the slides on the lab bench and cover them with paper towels to protect them from dust.

8. Dry at room temperature for 48 hours.

9. Dried slides can be put back into the boxes that they arrived in and stored at room temperature until use. Slides intended for cryostat sections can be stored at -20 ˚C.

Caution: DAB is hazardous. Gloves and safety glasses should be worn, and all steps performed inside a fume hood.Please read the protocol in its entirety before starting.

5. Incubate for 1 hour at room temperature with a NorthernLights-conjugated secondary antibody (or equivalent) in dilution buffer designed to recognize the host species of the primary antibody. Alternatively, a NorthernLights-streptavidin conjugate (or equivalent) can be used if the primary antibody is biotinylated.

Note: Some tissues may bind non-specifically to biotin-avidin labeling components resulting in high background staining. (See page 5)

6. Wash the slides 3 times for 15 minutes each in wash buffer.

7. Mount with an anti-fade mounting medium.

E. Antigen Retrieval Using Heat-induced Epitope Retrieval (HIER) Antigen retrieval can reveal epitopes masked during the preparation of tis sues for staining. The protocol below describes a technique used by R&D Systems and can be used on both cryostat and paraffin-embedded sections. The protocol can be used with R&D Systems Acidic, Basic, or Universal Antigen Retrieval Reagents. Pretreatment with these solutions may induce a dramatic enhancement of immunoreactivity. However, they also have the potential to affect tissue morphology. The optimal method of antigen retrieval must be determined experiment ally. For examples of IHC studies using antigen retrieval, see page 10.Please read the protocol in its entirety before starting.

PROCEDURE 1. Make working dilutions by mixing 1 part of 10x Antigen

Retrieval concentrate with 9 parts of deionized water.

2. Preheat retrieval solution to 92-95 ˚C. This may be achieved by placing a polypropylene Coplin staining jar filled with retrieval solution into a water bath.

Note: Heating may cause cracking of glass staining dishes.

3. Immerse slides into preheated retrieval solution for 2-10 minutes.

Note: Since the effect of antigen retrieval reagents depends on their temperature (90-100 ˚C) and incubation time (up to 30 minutes), optimal conditions should be determined by the individual investigator.

Note: Cryostat sections are more sensitive to damage by retrieval solution than paraffin-embedded tissues. To avoid tissue damage, it may be necessary to shorten the incubation time to 2-5 minutes.

4. After the incubation is finished, remove the Coplin jar with retrieval solution and slides from the water bath, and let it cool to room temperature.

5. Gently rinse the slides with deionized water and then with PBS.

Note: Because tissues may be loosened after the retrieval procedure, avoid vigorous rinsing to prevent detachment from the slides.

6. Tissues are now ready for blocking and primary antibody incubation.

PROCEDURE 1. Sterilize coverslips and place them into the wells of a 24-well

plate.

2. Add 400 mL of gelatin-coating solution and incubate the coverslips for 10 minutes at room temperature.

3. Remove the gelatin-coating solution and air dry the coverslips for 15 minutes.

4. The dried coverslips can now be stored at room temperature until use.

PROCEDURE 1. Culture cells by adding 0.5 mL of culture media containing

approximately 5,000 cells to the wells of a cell culture plate containing gelatin-coated coverslips.

2. When cells have reached the desired density/age, remove the culture media from each well and wash twice with PBS.

3. Add 300-400 mL of 2-4% formaldehyde to each well and incubate for 20 minutes at room temperature.

4. Wash the wells twice with PBS and then cover with 400 mL of wash buffer. The coverslips can be stored at 2-8 ˚C for up to 3 months or they may be stained immediately.

Note: Fixa tion can result in hydrophobic cross-linking of tissue proteins. The time, temperature, pH, and fixative used will determine the degree of cross-linking. Once the fixation protocol has been optimized, the same pro cedure should be used consistently.

Coverslip Preparation Using Gelatin

Many cultured cell types do not adhere well to glass coverslips. There are several techniques used to enhance cell adhesion including the use of poly-amino acids such as Polyornithine or Poly-L-Lysine, and/or extracellular matrix proteins such as Laminin or Fibronectin. Adding a thin layer of gelatin to a coverslip is also often used to enhance the adhesion of cultured cells to glass.

Preparation & Fixation of Cells on Coverslips

F. Preparation of Coverslips & Cell Fixation for ICC The fundamental principles of IHC experiments using tissue sections also apply to ICC experiments. However, these protocols must be specially adapted for use with cultured cells or cell suspensions.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Problem: Lack of Staining Possible Source Test or Action

Lack of antigen. Check protein expression by in situ hybridization (in some rare cases translation may be blocked even though mRNA is detected).

Antibodies do not work due to improper storage. Follow storage instructions on the datasheet. In general, aliquot antibodies into smaller volumes sufficient to make a working solution for a single experiment. Store aliquots in a manual defrost freezer (-20 to -70 ˚C) and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Inactive primary or secondary antibodies. Test reporter system independently to assess reagent viability.

Inadequate tissue fixation. Try increasing the fixation time or try a different fixative.

Tissue overfixation. Reduce the duration of the immersion or post-fixation steps. If immersion fixation cannot be avoided (for example, collection of postmortem tissues or biopsies in pathology lab), antigens may be unmasked by treatment with antigen retrieval reagents.

Incompatible secondary and primary antibodies. Use a secondary antibody that will interact with the primary antibody. For example, if the primary antibody was raised in rabbits, use an anti-rabbit secondary antibody.

Antigen was destroyed before incubation with the primary antibody. If quenching of endogenous peroxidase was done prior to the addition of primary antibodies, block peroxidase after incubation with the primary antibody.

Epitope altered during fixation or embedding procedure. Try restoring immunoreactivity through various antigen retrieval techniques. Embed tissue at 58 ˚C or below.

Antigen retrieval was ineffective. Increase the time of treatment or change the treatment solution.

Reagents omitted or used in wrong order. Repeat staining and confirm that correct reagents are used and are added in the correct order.

Problem: High BackgroundPossible Source Test or Action

High concentration of primary and or secondary antibodies. Titer antibody to determine optimal concentration needed to promote a specific reaction of the primary and the secondary antibodies.

Hydrophobic interactions of the antibody and proteins in the tissue. Lower the ionic strength of the antibody diluent (particularly monoclonal antibodies respond well to reducing the salt concentration).

Non-specific binding of primary and/or secondary reagents to tissues. Use blocking step just prior to primary antibody incubation (we use 1% bovine serum albumin with 10% normal donkey serum, or non-fat dry milk is another option).

Non-specific binding of secondary antibody. Use an antibody that has cross-reactive IgG species removed (absorbed against sample species).

Tissue dried out. Avoid letting the tissue dry during the staining procedure.

Reagents sticking to old or poorly prepared slides. Start over with freshly prepared or purchased slides.

Background due to ionic interactions. Increase the ionic strength of the diluent buffer.

Problem: Cell/Tissue Morphology DestroyedPossible Source Test or Action

Antigen retrieval methods are too harsh. Empirically determine the conditions that preserve tissue morphology while restoring the immuno reactivity of the antigen.

Tissue sections falling off slide. (more common with frozen sections) Increase fixation time. Empirically determine an additional or alternative fixative. Use freshly prepared, adequately charged slides.

Tissue section appears torn or folded. Air bubbles under section. Re-cut sections using a sharp blade, or ignore damaged areas when analyzing the results.

Poor resolution of tissue morphology Cut thinner tissue sections. Ice crystals may have destroyed morphology of frozen sections.

Underfixation has physically damaged the tissue or cells during the staining process Increase fixation time and/or add a post-fixation step. Increase the fixative/tissue ratio. Cut smaller pieces of tissue for more thorough immersion fixation.

Autolysis of tissue leading to staining of necrotic debris. Increase the fixation time, ratio. Consider using cross-linking fixative.

Problem: Staining is Inappropriate Possible Source Test or Action

Fixation method is inappropriate for the antigen. Try a different fixative or increase the fixation time.

Antigen retrieval may be inappropriate for this antigen or tissue. Try different antigen retrieval conditions.

Electrostatic charge of the antigen has been altered. Try adjusting the pH or cation concentration of the antibody diluent.

Delay in fixation caused diffusion of the antigen. Fix tissue promptly. Try a cross-linking fixative rather than organic (alchohol) fixative.

Control Antigen RetrievalAntigen Retrieval Improves Detection of Neuro-plastin 65. Neuroplastin 65 was detected in human cerebellar tissue using anti-human/mouse Neuro-plastin 65 affinity-purified polyclonal antibody (Cat-alog # AF5360). Tissue was pretreated with Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using the anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell and Tissue Staining Kit (Catalog # CTS008; brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Staining Kits & Reagents for Cells & Tissues Cell and Tissue Staining Kits are intended for localization of antigens in a broad range of histological and cytological specimens. These kits are based on the formation of the Avidin-Biotin Complex (ABC) with primary antibodies that react with the tissue antigens under study. The kits are made in ready-to-use format including prediluted Secondary Biotinylated Antibodies, and HSS-HRP that eliminates the need for extra steps in the procedure, mini-mizes hands-on time, maximizes convenience, and reduces the risk of erroneous calculations.
