Pathology archives are a treasure trove of paraffin embedded tissue spanning many years and covering a wide variety of tissues and diseases. The possibility of using old archival formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues for diagnostic updates and research projects is a widespread need and it requires archives of stable, well-preserved samples. Immunohistochemistry performed on old archival paraffin blocks may give unreliable results, in particular for some antigens, such as Ki67. In consideration of this phenomenon, our aim is to comprehensively test and identify methods which may be used to obtain Ki67 immunohistochemical reactions of good quality from old archival FFPE blocks. Various methods were tested in order to evaluate their possible efficacy in increasing Ki67 immunointensity in a collection of 40-year-old, archival blocks including re-embedding, with deeper sectioning of tissue from the block and increasing heat-based pretreatment times (20 cases) and re-processing (20 cases). All reactions were performed using an automated immunostainer and Ki67 stained immunosections compared using a visual colour-based scale (the first immunostained section was considered as baseline). The combination of deep sectioning (1000 µM) and prolonged heat-based pretreatment (64 min) markedly increased immunoreactivity for Ki67. Re-embedding and reprocessing did not have a significant effect. Large tissue samples showed heterogeneity of Ki67 immunoexpression between the periphery of the sample and the central area. In conclusion, the study defines a useful protocol to increase antigen retrieval applicable to dated archival tissues.

恢复老化石蜡组织块中 ki67 抗原性的方法

病理档案是石蜡包埋组织的宝库,跨越多年,涵盖多种组织和疾病。使用旧的档案福尔马林固定石蜡包埋 (FFPE) 组织进行诊断更新和研究项目的可能性是一种广泛的需求,它需要稳定、保存完好的样本档案。对旧的存档石蜡块进行免疫组织化学可能会给出不可靠的结果,特别是对于某些抗原,例如 Ki67。考虑到这一现象,我们的目标是全面测试和确定可用于从旧档案 FFPE 块中获得高质量 Ki67 免疫组织化学反应的方法。测试了各种方法,以评估它们在增加一组 40 岁的 Ki67 免疫强度方面可能的功效,存档块包括重新嵌入,从块中更深地切开组织,增加基于热的预处理时间(20 例)和再处理(20 例)。所有反应均使用自动免疫染色仪进行,Ki67 染色免疫切片使用基于视觉颜色的刻度进行比较(第一个免疫染色切片被视为基线)。深切片 (1000 µM) 和长时间加热预处理 (64 分钟) 的结合显着提高了 Ki67 的免疫反应性。重新嵌入和再处理没有显着影响。大型组织样本显示样本外围和中心区域之间 Ki67 免疫表达的异质性。总之,该研究定义了一个有用的协议来增加适用于过时的档案组织的抗原检索。将组织从块中切得更深,并增加基于热的预处理时间(20 例)和再处理时间(20 例)。所有反应均使用自动免疫染色仪进行,Ki67 染色免疫切片使用基于视觉颜色的刻度进行比较(第一个免疫染色切片被视为基线)。深切片 (1000 µM) 和长时间加热预处理 (64 分钟) 的结合显着提高了 Ki67 的免疫反应性。重新嵌入和再处理没有显着影响。大型组织样本显示样本外围和中心区域之间 Ki67 免疫表达的异质性。总之,该研究定义了一个有用的协议来增加适用于过时的档案组织的抗原检索。将组织从块中切得更深,并增加基于热的预处理时间(20 例)和再处理时间(20 例)。所有反应均使用自动免疫染色仪进行,Ki67 染色免疫切片使用基于视觉颜色的刻度进行比较(第一个免疫染色切片被视为基线)。深切片 (1000 µM) 和长时间加热预处理 (64 分钟) 的结合显着提高了 Ki67 的免疫反应性。重新嵌入和再处理没有显着影响。大型组织样本显示样本外围和中心区域之间 Ki67 免疫表达的异质性。总之,该研究定义了一个有用的协议来增加适用于过时的档案组织的抗原检索。
