Recombinant Anti-CD4 antibody [EPR6855] (ab133616)

10-color fluorescence multiplex immunohistochemical analysis of human lung cancer tissue (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded section).

Merged staining of anti-FOXP3 (ab215206; Cyan; TG540N), anti-PD1 (ab52587; Red; TG700N), anti-CD163 (ab182422; Brown; TG650N), anti-HLA-DR (ab92511; Yellow; TG570N), anti-CD4 (ab133616; Violet; TG620N), anti-CD8 alpha (ab101500; Purple; TG540S), anti-CD20 (ab9475; Grey; TG660S), anti-CD68 (ab192847; Green; TG520N), anti-Cytokeratin 19 (ab52625; Light blue; TG440N). TG470SN (dark blue) was used as a nuclear counter stain. The inset image shows the separate CD4 signal.

The section was incubated in nine rounds of staining; in the order of ab215206 (1/100 dilution), ab52587 (1/200 dilution), ab182422 (1/300 dilution), ab92511 (1/200 dilution), ab133616 (1/600 dilution), ab101500 (1/300 dilution), ab9475 (1/100 dilution), ab192847 (1/300 dilution), ab52625 (1/400 dilution); each using a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

Sodium citrate antigen retrieval (pH6.0) was used in between rounds of tyramide signal amplification to remove the antibody from the previous round, to avoid any cross-reactivity.

Image acquisition was performed with TissueFAXS Spectra (TissueGnostics).

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes stained with unpurifiedab133616 (red line). Human whole blood was processed using a modified protocol based on Chow et al, 2005 (PMID: 16080188). In brief, human whole blood was fixed in 4% formaldehyde (methanol-free) for 10 min at 22°C. Red blood cells were then lyzed by the addition of Triton X-100 (final concentration - 0.1%) for 15 min at 37°C. For experimentation, cells were treated with 50% methanol (-20°C) for 15 min at 4°C. Cells were then incubated with the antibody (unpurified ab133616, 1/100 dilution) for 30 min at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluorr^® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H&L) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 4°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (0.1µg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >30,000 total events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter. Gating strategy - peripheral blood lymphocytes. 

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human tonsil tissue labelling CD4 with purified ab133616 at 1/500. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9. ab97051, a HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) was used as the secondary antibody (1/500). Negative control using PBS instead of primary antibody. Counterstained with hematoxylin.

HBZ is preferentially expressed in CD4+ T cells of HAM/TSP patient PH1624

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human tonsil tissue labelling CD4 with ab133616 at a dilution of 1:500. 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.

Tissue Microarrays stained for "Anti-CD4 antibody [EPR6855]” using "ab133616" in immunohistochemical analysis. This table provides a detailed overview of positive (tick mark) and negative (cross mark) staining per sample type tested. The sections were pre-treated using Heat mediated antigen retrieval using Bond™ Epitope Retrieval Solution 2 (pH 9.0) for 20 minutes.
