Fluorochromized tyramide-glucose oxidase as a multiplex fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system for histochemical analysis.

ABSTRACT: Tyramide signal amplification (TSA) is a highly sensitive method for histochemical analysis. Previously, we reported a TSA system, biotinyl tyramine-glucose oxidase (BT-GO), for bright-filed imaging. Here, we develop fluorochromized tyramide-glucose oxidase (FT-GO) as a multiplex fluorescent TSA system. FT-GO involves peroxidase-catalyzed deposition of fluorochromized tyramide (FT) with hydrogen peroxide produced by enzymatic reaction between glucose and glucose oxidase. We showed that FT-GO enhanced immunofluorescence signals while maintaining low background signals. Compared with indirect immunofluorescence detections, FT-GO demonstrated a more widespread distribution of monoaminergic projection systems in mouse and marmoset brains. For multiplex labeling with FT-GO, we quenched antibody-conjugated peroxidase using sodium azide. We applied FT-GO to multiplex fluorescent in situ hybridization, and succeeded in labeling neocortical interneuron subtypes by coupling with immunofluorescence. FT-GO immunofluorescence further increased the detectability of an adeno-associated virus tracer. Given its simplicity and a staining with a high signal-to-noise ratio, FT-GO would provide a versatile platform for histochemical analysis.

Project description:Every day, more evidence is revealed regarding the importance of the relationship between the response to cancer immunotherapy and the cancer immune microenvironment. It is well established that a profound characterization of the immune microenvironment is needed to identify prognostic and predictive immune biomarkers. To this end, we find phenotyping cells by multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) a powerful and useful tool to identify cell types in biopsy specimens. Here, we describe the use of mIF tyramide signal amplification for labeling up to eight markers on a single slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissue to phenotype immune cells in tumor tissues. Different panels show different markers, and the different panels can be used to characterize immune cells and relevant checkpoint proteins. The panel design depends on the research hypothesis, the cell population of interest, or the treatment under investigation. To phenotype the cells, image analysis software is used to identify individual marker expression or specific co-expression markers, which can differentiate already selected phenotypes. The individual-markers approach identifies a broad number of cell phenotypes, including rare cells, which may be helpful in a tumor microenvironment study. To accurately interpret results, it is important to recognize which receptors are expressed on different cell types and their typical location (i.e., nuclear, membrane, and/or cytoplasm). Furthermore, the amplification system of mIF may allow us to see weak marker signals, such as programmed cell death ligand 1, more easily than they are seen with single-marker immunohistochemistry (IHC) labeling. Finally, mIF technologies are promising resources for discovery of novel cancer immunotherapies and related biomarkers. In contrast with conventional IHC, which permits only the labeling of one single marker per tissue sample, mIF can detect multiple markers from a single tissue sample, and at the same time, deliver extensive information about the cell phenotypes composition and their spatial localization. In this matter, the phenotyping process is critical and must be done accurately by a highly trained personal with knowledge of immune cell protein expression and tumor pathology.

Project description:Delayed graft function (DGF) is a strong risk factor for development of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) in kidney transplants. Quantitative assessment of inflammatory infiltrates in kidney biopsies of DGF patients can reveal predictive markers for IFTA development. In this study, we combined multiplex tyramide signal amplification (mTSA) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to assess the inflammatory microenvironment in kidney biopsies of DGF patients (n = 22) taken at 6 weeks post-transplantation. Patients were stratified for IFTA development (<10% versus ≥10%) from 6 weeks to 6 months post-transplantation, based on histopathological assessment by three kidney pathologists. One mTSA panel was developed for visualization of capillaries, T- and B-lymphocytes and macrophages and a second mTSA panel for T-helper cell and macrophage subsets. The slides were multi spectrally imaged and custom-made python scripts enabled conversion to artificial brightfield whole-slide images (WSI). We used an existing CNN for the detection of lymphocytes with cytoplasmatic staining patterns in immunohistochemistry and developed two new CNNs for the detection of macrophages and nuclear-stained lymphocytes. F1-scores were 0.77 (nuclear-stained lymphocytes), 0.81 (cytoplasmatic-stained lymphocytes), and 0.82 (macrophages) on a test set of artificial brightfield WSI. The CNNs were used to detect inflammatory cells, after which we assessed the peritubular capillary extent, cell density, cell ratios, and cell distance in the two patient groups. In this cohort, distance of macrophages to other immune cells and peritubular capillary extent did not vary significantly at 6 weeks post-transplantation between patient groups. CD163+ cell density was higher in patients with ≥10% IFTA development 6 months post-transplantation (p < 0.05). CD3+CD8-/CD3+CD8+ ratios were higher in patients with <10% IFTA development (p < 0.05). We observed a high correlation between CD163+ and CD4+GATA3+ cell density (R = 0.74, p < 0.001). Our study demonstrates that CNNs can be used to leverage reliable, quantitative results from mTSA-stained, multi spectrally imaged slides of kidney transplant biopsies.
