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.

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.
