重组Anti-PD-L1抗体[28-8] (ab205921)

IHC image of ab205921 staining PD-L1 in human tonsil formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections*, performed on a Leica BOND RX (Polymer Refine kit). The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA buffer (pH9, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 30 mins at 98°C. The section was then incubated with ab205921, 5μg/ml working concentration, for 60 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system for 8 minutes at room temperature. DAB was used as the chromogen for 10 minutes at room temperature. The section was then counterstained with hematoxylin, blued, dehydrated, cleared and mounted with DPX.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human tonsil tissue labelling PD-L1 with ab205921 at a dilution of 1:400. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using AR9 antigen retrieval solution, and microwave treatment for 15 min at 20% power. Anti-Rabbit/Mouse HRP polymer (PerkinElmer Opal Polymer HRP Ms Plus Rb) was used as secondary antibody. Opal tyramide amplification was performed using Opal 520 fluorophore. Counterstained with DAPI stain. Image scanned with Vectra 3.0 and analyzed via Phenochart software.

Ab205921 specificity testing by Immunohistochemistry (KO testing): Loss of detection on KO Cells

Strong IHC detection with anti-PD-L1 (ab205921, clone 28-8) is seen in human lung adenocarcinoma tumor cell line L2987. PDL1 gene was edited in L2987 cells using TALEN constructs targeting exon4 of human PD-L1, transcript variant 1 (NM_014143.3) and complete knock out (K.O) confirmed by deep sequencing in clone L2-14. IHC detection is completely eliminated in the L2987 L2-14 K.O. cell line.

For recommended Immunohistochemistry (IHC) protocol, please refer to the protocol book in the protocol section and/or here (downloadable copy).

Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Immunohistochemical staining of PD-L1 in formalin fixed, paraffin embedded human non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSQ-NSCLC) using ab205921 at a dilution of 1/400, incubated for an hour at room temperature. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was carried out in low pH buffer and the sample was blocked with peroxidase blocking buffer for 3 minutes.
