A comparison of three immunoperoxidase techniques for antigen detection in colorectal carcinoma tissues 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
We compared the streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate (SP) method of immunoperoxidase histochemistry to the unlabeled antibody (PAP) and avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) techniques in human colorectal carcinoma tissues stained with a monoclonal antibody for expression of carcinoembryonic antigen. Compared to the ABC and PAP method, the SP method produced stronger staining intensity and very low background staining. This was true when other antibody isotypes, other antibody species, other organs, and another tumor-associated antigen were used. Moreover, the SP procedure time could be reduced to one third that of the ABC or PAP methods without compromising accuracy, and the SP reagent is stable for several months. The chemical nature of the streptavidin molecule accounts, in large part, for the advantages of the SP method. 相似文献

本实验进一步检查了三种常用的洗脱方法从切片上除去免疫酶组织化学染色后的抗体的效果。结果表明,PAP法染色后,氧化法的抗体洗脱完全,效果可靠;酸洗法和酸洗/二甲基甲酰胺法的效果视不同抗体而不同,二甲基甲酰胺单用或用于酸洗后似无效。所用方法均不能从ABC法染色的垂体组织切片上完全除去抗体复合物。因之,将ABC法用于第一抗体来源于同一动物种的双重染色中,来显示第一种抗原时,要特别注意排除假性双标记。 相似文献

Optimally fixed paraffin enbedded tissue sections and cytocentrifuged cell smears were used to test the sensitivity and nonspecific staining with the enzyme-bridge, PAP, indirect and direct immunoperoxidase methods using human immunoglobulins and lysozyme as antigens. With the enzyme-bridge method positive staining was seen with primary antiserum dilutions up to 1:20,000. The least background staining was observed with this method. The PAP method was equally sensitive, although false-negative results with low primary antiserum dilutions were seen. Some nonspecific background staining always persisted using the PAP method even with high primary antiserum dilutions. The indirect method was not as sensitive as the enzyme-bridge method and some nonspecific staining always persisted. The direct method was too insensitive with paraffin embedded tissue sections. 相似文献

Mice were infected with Sendai virus and killed 8 days later. Lungs were removed and perfused with ethanol, 10% neutral formalin, Bouin's, B-5, or Zenker's fixatives. Tissues were dehydrated, embedded in paraffin, sectioned and stained for the presence of Sendai virus using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase-complex (ABC) and peroxidase antiperoxidase (PAP) immunocytochemical techniques. Results of these techniques were compared. The ABC technique was more sensitive than the PAP. Sendai antigen was demonstrated by the ABC technique in lung tissue fixed with any fixative, whereas antigen could be demonstrated with consistency only in ethanol-fixed lung by the PAP technique. Trypsin treatment of lung prior to immunoperoxidase treatment failed to enhance staining with either technique and actually caused a decrease in staining in ethanol, B-5 and Zenker's-fixed specimens. 相似文献

The new avidin--biotin--peroxidase complex (ABC) technique was applied to ultrathin sections of rat pituitary that were fixed with glutaraldehyde and embedded in Araldite 6005. The primary antisera dilutions that are normally applied for 24-48 hr with the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) complex technique were used. High background was observed with the ABC method when incubation times were 12-48 hr. Tests were then conducted with shorter incubation times. The staining intensity was measured with a densitometer. Detectable stain was seen after only 15 min in dilutions of 1:10,000 anti-bovine luteinizing hormone (bLH beta), 1:8000 anti-rat thyroid-stimulating hormone (rTSH beta), and 1:20,000 anti-25-39-adrenocorticotropic hormone (25-39ACTH). Optimal LH staining was seen after 30 min, whereas optimal staining for TSH or ACTH required 1 hr. Stain was detectable with a dilution of 1:4000 anti-human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH beta) after 30 min and was optimal after 4 hr. Prolonged incubation times with these dilutions decreased the staining intensity because a deposit of high background was produced that appeared as a filigreed network over the cells. When higher dilutions were tested with 2-hr incubation times, optimal staining was seen with 1:30,000 anti-bLH beta, 1:24,000 anti-rTSH beta, 1:30,000 anti-25-39ACTH, and 1:8000 anti-hFSH beta. These tests demonstrate the potential of the ABC method for the rapid detection of small amounts of specific and nonspecific antibodies that are bound to pituitary cells. 相似文献

A highly sensitive method for the demonstration of carcinoembryonic antigen in normal and neoplastic colonic tissue 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary A highly sensitive method for the immuno-histochemical localisation of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is described. This method is based on the binding of a peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex (PAP) to anti-CEA antibodies by means of an anti-gamma-globulin which reacts with both the anti-CEA and the antiperoxidase antibodies. Using the technique described here, CEA was localised in conventionally processed normal and cancerous colonic tissue. In normal as well as in neoplastic tissues, a CEA-specific staining of cell membranes and cytoplasm was demonstrated. In frozen sections of normal colonic tissue CEA was found even at high dilutions of the first antibody; this indicates the high sensitivity of the method. The applicability of the method to conventionally processed and thereby well preserved tissue specimens opens the possibility to identify CEA by light microscopy even at very low concentrations. 相似文献

Summary The effect of microwave antigen retrieval on the immunostaining of human duodenal endocrine cells in formaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded
material was investigated. The sections were immunostained by the avidin-biot in complex (ABC) and immunogold-silver autometallography
(IGSS) methods with and without prior microwave treatment. Dilutions of up to 1:30 000 of the following antisera/antibodies
were used: anti-chromogranin A, anti-chromogranin AB, anti-secretin, anti-gastrin, anti-gastric inhibitory polypeptide, anti-somatostatin
and anti-serotonin. The detection threshold for all the antibodies was lower after antigen retrieval, and the primary antibody
could be used in higher dilutions. The dilutions varied for different antibodies and were between two and ten times the optimal
dilution without antigen retrieval. At extremely high dilutions of, or without, the primary antibody, non-specific staining
of some lymphocytes and the mucus of some goblet cells was observed when the avidin method was applied, but not with the immunogold
technique. This phenomenon was not observed when optimal dilution or a lower dilution was used. This seems to have been caused
by the binding of the avidin-biotin complex to epitopes in these structures unmasked by microwave treatment when competition
with specific binding sites was absent.

We have developed a novel and simple method, requiring only a small amount of antigen, for removal of undesired antibodies from antiserum. The method was established using a well-characterized antiserum against rat luteinizing hormone (anti-rLH). Wells of polystyrene tissue culture plates were coated with rat LH (rLH). Anti-rLH diluted 1:3000 was added to rLH-coated wells and shaken to remove LH antibodies. Control anti-rLH was treated in a similar manner in non-rLH-coated wells. Both antisera were tested by immunocytochemistry on rat pituitaries. Antiserum from rLH-coated wells stained no cells, whereas the control serum stained cells that were morphologically typical of LH cells. The effectiveness of this antibody removal was also confirmed in a modified ELISA. In another experiment, anti-rLH and anti-hTSH beta sera were mixed. The final dilution of both antisera was 1:10,000. Anti-rLH was removed by the purification method described. Completeness of antibody removal was confirmed by a double-immunohistochemical staining of rat pituitary in which sections were first stained by the PAP method and then stained with an immunofluorescence procedure after elution of the first antigen-antibody complex. The mixed antiserum incubated in rLH-coated wells did not stain LH cells. There was no co-localization between the LH immunopositivity demonstrated by an anti-rLH serum using immunofluorescence and cells immunostained with the purified antiserum using the PAP method. As indicated in ELISA, the titer of the TSH beta antiserum was not decreased compared to that of the untreated, mixed control antiserum, and the LH antibodies were eliminated by the treatment. This new purification method has four distinct advantages: (a) antiserum is not treated chemically; (b) it requires only a small amount of antigen compared with the amount required for affinity chromatography; (c) neither the undesired antigen-antibody complex(es) nor an excess amount of antigen is present in the purified antiserum; and (d) removal of undesired antibodies can be monitored by ELISA. 相似文献

Efficiency and sensitivity of indirect immunoperoxidase methods 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) complex method has repeatedly been claimed to be more sensitive and antibody efficient than the indirect peroxidase labeled antibody method. However, most studies comparing these methods used tissue sections as the test material. However, test systems with known amounts of antigen will allow more reliable comparison of these methods and quantitative evaluation of method sensitivity. We therefore compared the antibody efficiency and sensitivity of these methods for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin in an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), an antigen spot test (AST) and tissue sections of choriocarcinoma. In the PAP technique rabbit PAP and goat anti-rabbit antibody were applied. The same antibody was peroxidase-labeled with the periodate technique and used in the labeled antibody method. In the ELISA the PAP method resulted in slightly higher antibody efficiency than the labeled antibody method. At low primary antibody dilutions the intensity of the reaction decreased with the PAP method but remained high with the labeled antibody method, in the ELISA as well as on tissue sections. In the AST the labeled antibody method and the PAP method appeared to be equally sensitive. 相似文献

Most of the double immunostaining protocols that have been introduced so far have been developed for application on fresh frozen material or based on different species antibodies. In liver tissue, general problems of double immunostaining techniques are further complicated by tissue-specific difficulties, such as necrosis or high intracellular protein content. To assess a reliable double immunostaining protocol for archived, paraffin embedded liver tissue, different protocols based on the use of same species primary antibodies were evaluated in terms of sensitivity, specificity and non-specific background staining in pathological liver specimens. We compared peroxidase-anti-peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase-anti-alkaline phosphatase (PAP/APAP), labelled-avidin-biotin (LAB/LAB) and digoxigenin-anti-digoxigenin (dig-a-dig/PAP) techniques using different cytokeratin antibodies and an antibody against PCNA. Comparison of the double immunostaining techniques revealed a high sensitivity and specificity in all procedures. Sections, which were stained employing PAP/APAP-technique, displayed a higher background staining compared to sections which were treated with the LAB/LAB or dig-a-dig/PAP protocol. In contrast to the dig-a-dig/PAP protocol, the LAB/LAB technique provides a better time/cost relationship. Therefore, we would like to recommend a modified LAB/LAB protocol for simultaneous detection of different antigens in archived liver tissue. 相似文献

Assessment of a method for immunochemical detection of antigen on nitrocellulose membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Immunoblotting techniques are widely used for detection of antigen immobilized on nitrocellulose membranes. There are many immunolabeling methods and staining methods available to disclose the presence of antigen in such techniques. Five common staining methods each for alkaline phosphatase and horseradish peroxidase were examined. The staining methods with the highest sensitivity and the lowest background were selected for studies comparing five immunological labeling methods using human IgG as a model antigen. Results were evaluated on the basis of the least amount of detectable antigen and background staining. The most sensitive dot-blot method was then tested for its applicability to Western blots. For both dot-blots and Western blots, the immunoalkaline phosphatase methods are more sensitive than the corresponding immunoperoxidase methods. The use of biotinylated secondary antibodies and an avidin-enzyme conjugate is recommended. Disclosure of alkaline phosphate is best achieved with naphthol AS phosphate as substrate and fast blue BB as chromogen. Peroxidase is best stained using H2O2 and diaminobenzidine (DAB). Potential endogenous enzyme activities are demonstrable by blotting methods but can be inhibited by including levamisole in the disclosure reaction medium for calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase indicators, or by incubation of blots with sodium azide and hydrogen peroxide before immunolabeling when using horseradish peroxidase indicators. 相似文献

Demonstration of myoglobin and CK-M in myocardium. Comparison of five fixation methods and three immunohistochemical techniques 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The results of immunohistochemical staining vary depending on the tissue, fixative, antigen-antibody system, and immunohistochemical staining methods used. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different methods of fixation, different antigen-antibody systems, and different immunohistochemical methods on immunohistochemical staining of myocardium. Samples of normal fresh canine myocardium from six dogs were fresh frozen and fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin, Bouin's, Bayley's and Carnoy's fixatives. Immunohistochemical staining for myoglobin and creatine kinase M was performed using the ABC (avidin-biotin complex) and indirect peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) techniques. Tissues fixed in formalin showed the most intense specific staining for both antigens with the least background and nonspecific staining. All other fixation methods and frozen section techniques gave a more variable degree of specific positive staining and substantial background staining and/or nonspecific staining. ABC and PAP techniques gave similar results with both antigen-antibody systems and with each fixation method. Thus, no differences in specificity or sensitivity were observed between ABC and PAP techniques. Differences in staining intensity and pattern were related primarily to differences in fixation methods. 相似文献

It has been suggested that the use of avidin-biotin immunohistochemical techniques for antigen detection in neural tissue produces nonspecific background staining. For this reason neural tissue was used to test the quality, sensitivity and specificity of four commercially available antibody detection kits which use avidin or streptavidin binding to biotin. Free-floating, thick-section immunohistochemistry on perfusion fixed rat central nervous system revealed variability among staining kits for all parameters analyzed under the same experimental conditions. The reagents from the Vector 'Elite' kit were the most sensitive and specific, and received the highest overall rating for quality. Most commercial products tested could be used at greater dilutions than those recommended by the manufacturers without compromising specific staining. No staining was evident when the primary and secondary antibodies were omitted. This suggests that nonspecific binding is unlikely to be due to endogenous ligands, charge of hydrophilic reactions between these tertiary complexes and the tissue sections. 相似文献

We describe a new approach for retrieval of antigens from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues and their subsequent staining by immunohistochemical techniques. This method of antigen retrieval is based on microwave heating of tissue sections attached to microscope slides to temperatures up to 100 degrees C in the presence of metal solutions. Among 52 monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies tested by this method, 39 antibodies demonstrated a significant increase in immunostaining, nine antibodies showed no change, and four antibodies showed reduced immunostaining. In particular, excellent immunostaining results were obtained with a monoclonal antibody to vimentin as well as several different keratin antibodies on routine formalin-fixed tissue sections after pre-treatment of the slides with this method. These results showed that after antigen retrieval: (a) enzyme predigestion of tissues could be omitted; (b) incubation times of primary antibodies could be significantly reduced, or dilutions of primary antibodies could be increased; (c) adequate staining could be achieved in long-term formalin-fixed tissues that failed to stain by conventional methods; and (d) certain antibodies which were typically unreactive with formalin-fixed tissues gave excellent staining. 相似文献

Neutralization tests were made on 4 types of dengue (DEN) virus and Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus by incubation of serially diluted antisera and constant amounts of the viruses and then focus assay of surviving virus infectivity with peroxidase-anti-peroxidase (PAP) staining. Neutralization reactions were virtually completed in 2 hr on incubation of serum-virus mixtures at 28 C. A straight regression line was obtained on a probit chart by plotting the focus reduction rates at various dilutions of a given serum against the logarithm of the serum dilution used in the test. The slopes of the probit regression lines for the neutralization for DEN types 1 and 3 were similar, but differed somewhat from those for DEN type 2 and type 4. The slope of the line for JE virus was quite different from those for DEN viruses. Using these relations, the fifty percent focus reduction titer (FR50) of neutralizing antibodies of a given serum could be estimated from the focus reduction rates at several dilutions of the test serum when the latter was between 25-75% of the value of the control. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Estrogen receptor (ER) levels in tumor cells are important for determining the outcome of treatment and the prognosis of breast cancer patients. Flow cytometry is a convenient tool for quantifying the ER in cells, but a more sensitive, reproducible method for immunostaining the ER with anti-ER antibody is needed. Materials and Methods ER-positive human breast cancer cells MCF-7 and T47D, and ER-negative MDA-MBA-321 cells, were fixed and permeabilized by three different protocols. The cells were then stained by indirect immunofluorescence, using two commercial antibodies to ER (MA1-310 and DAKO 1D5), or by direct immunofluorescence using FITC-labeled anti-idiotypic antibody clone 1D(5). The stained cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The fixation of cells with a mixture of 0.25% paraformaldehyde and 70% methanol, permeabilization with 0.05% Triton X-100, and increasing antibody and antigen reaction time led to 80-99% of cells being stained with anti-ER antibodies. The relative brightness of ER immunostaining was as follows: anti-idiotypic antibody ID5 > MA1-310 > DAKO 1D5. CONCLUSIONS: Direct immunofluorescence with the FITC-labeled anti-idiotypic antibody of permeabilized cells resulted in improved specific staining of the ER, as compared to indirect immunofluorescence with anti-ER antibodies of fixed and permeabilized cells. Increasing the length of staining, and treatment of cells with Triton X-100, are both necessary to improve the staining of intracellular antigen for flow cytometric analysis. 相似文献

Summary A combination of the PAP- and ABC-techniques was developed to enhance the intensity of the immunocytochemical staining with
monoclonal antibodies at light and electron microscopical levels. This amplification technique could be performed in 4 (single
PAP + ABC) or 6 (double PAP + ABC) sequential steps depending on the quality of the primary antibodies used and the processing
of the tissue before the immunocytochemical reaction:
First step — Incubation of the tissue sections with the monoclonal primary antibodies; Second step — biotinylated anti-rat or anti-mouse IgG; Third step — monoclonal PAP complex; Fourth step — ABC complex which binds to the biotinylated secondary antibody. If stronger enhancement of the immunostaining has required
the steps 2 and 3 could be repeated followed by the 6th step — the ABC complex.
Choline acetyltransferase-like immunoreactivity of the rat hypoglossal nucleus and desmin- and vimentin-like immunoreactivity
of human testis were studied. After the 4-and more pronounced the 6-step reaction a significant increase of the staining intensity
was observed for all the reactions under study. ChAT-like immunoreactivity was observed to longer distances of the nerve cell
dendrites after their emerging from the perikarya and within a greater number of structures in the neuropil as compared to
the standard techniques. At electron microscopical level the technique permits longer fixation of the tissue which is important
for the better preservation of the ultrastructure as well as for the easier recognition of the reaction product even in the
smallest dendrite branches and the axons of the nerve cells. Stronger staining intensity was obtained for desmin-like immunoreactivity
(LI) (within myofibroblasts of the lamina propria and muscle cells of the blood vessels)-and vimentin-LI (within Sertoli cells,
myofibroblasts of the lamina propria and fibroblasts of the interstitium) of the human testis. The full combination (6 step-reaction)
permits the detection of smallest quantities of an antigen in sections of different tissues using highly diluted primary antibodies.
The technique represents a further alternative among the immunocytochemical amplification methods. 相似文献
