  2. Monoclonal & Polyclonal

  3. Antibody labelling methods: • Immunoenzyme method: An enzyme is used as the label. • Peroxidase, alkalin phosfatase, glucose oxidase • Chromogen (staining chemical) must be used • Immunofluorescence method: A fluorochrome is used as the label. • AMCA, Fluorescein, FITC, Rodomine, TRITC, Texas Red. • Fluorescence microscope with appropriate filter or confocal laser scanning microscope must be used to visualize. • 3. Immunogold method: colloidal gold particles are used as the label. • Usually used in electron microscopy.

  4. Immunolabelling methods: • Direct method: The antigen directly binds to its specific labelled antibody (primary antibody) • Fast to get the results • Labeling intensity is low • Used for kidney or skin biopsies.

  5. Direct method

  6. Immunolabelling methods: • Indirect method: Primary antibody is unlabelled. A secondary antibody (which is labeled) is used. • Sekondary antibody must be raised against the immunoglobulin of the species which the primary antibody is made in. • Getting results takes longer • More sensitive • More economic

  7. Indirect method

  8. Fluorescence Method Texas Red, Rodamin, Cy3 FITC, Cy2 AMCA

  9. Immunolabelling methods: • Protein A method: • Unlabelled antibody methods: • Enzym-antienzym method • Peroxidase – antiperoxidase (PAP) • Alkaline phosphatase - anti-Alkaline phosphatase (APAAP) • Most sensitive results • Widely used • Applied on paraffin, cryostat sections or on smears.

  10. Peroxidase – antiperoxidase (PAP) Alkaline phosphatase - anti-Alkaline phosphatase (APAAP)

  11. Immunolabelling methods: 5. Avidin-Biotin method: Uses the high affinity of Avidin (glycoprotein) for biotin (vitamin). A complex of avidin-biotin-enzym (peroksidaz) is necessary. Streptoavidin can be used instead of avidin. The secondary antibody is labelled with biotin which inturn binds to avidin in the avidin-biotin-enzym complex. Very high sensitivity Used in research more than routine studies. It is longer and more expensive.

  12. In order to visualize the enzymes labelling the antibodies with light microscope, enzyme – substrate reactions, which convert colorless chromogens into visible colored end-products, is used.: • Peroxidase- hydrogen peroxide- diaminobenzidine (DAB): • 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole (AEC): • 4-chloro-1-naphthol (CN): KOYU MAVİ BROWN RED DARK BLUE

  13. Multiple immunolabelling • Detecting more than one antigen in the same cell or on the same tissue. • A combination of different single labelling methods is used. • Cross-reaction must be avoided: • Using primary antibodies raised in different species. (not necessary if antigens of interest are localized in different compartments of the cell such as cytoplasm vs nucleus.) • The secondary antibodies must be raised in the same species such as donkey. • Specificity of the primary antibodies must be controled before. • Light Microscobe (two antigens, sometimes three) • Fluorescence (two or three) or confokal microscobe (two-five) • Combining two techniques (two-six) • Electron microscobe (usually two)

  20. Where Immunohistochemistry is Used? • to detect: • Proteins, carbohidrates, nucleic acids, lipits • Types of the secreting cells • Membrane antigens • Structural antigens within the cytoplasm • Antigen localised in the nucleus • Immunohistochemistry is frequently used both in experimental and diagnostical studies • Light, flouresans, confocal laser scanning or electron microscope is used in order to visualize the labeled antibody-antigen complex.

  21. The aim of the immunohistochemistry • to perform most specific immunohistochemical staining; • by cousing least damage on the cell or tissue, • by using least amount of antibody, • in shortest time, • with least backgroung staining.

  22. Immunohistochemistry protocol -1 • Before incubation with antibody: • Deparaffinization. • Removing the fixative: washing in buffer solutions (phosphate buffer, Tris-HCl buffer, HEPES buffer, etc) • Neutralization of the endogeneus peroxidase • Blocking: covering the non-immunological sticky sites on tissues (bovine serum albumine, non-immune normal serum, gelatine, milk) • Blocking the surface tension: (Tween 20, Triton X-100, NaCl)

  23. Tissue Preparation • Fixation: Immersion or perfusion fixation • Neutral formaline • Paraformaldehyde • Paraformaldehyde ve picric acid (Bouin’s solution) • Sectioning: • Microtome: paraffin blocks • Cryostat: frozen tissue • Vibratome: fixed hard tissue • Sections on a slide (PAP Pen) • Floating sections

  24. Immunohistochemistry protocol -2 • Incubation: • Primary antibody: Used in a solution at different dilutions with the blocking agent. The incubation time changes according to the properties of the antigen or antibody as well as depending on the temperature. • Secondary antibody: Must be raised in the species other than the species of which the cells or tissues are taken or the primary antibody is raised. It should specifically recognize the immunoglobuline of the species in which the primary antibody is raised. • Labelling: Immunoenzyme, immunoflourescence, immunogold • Microscopical analyses

  25. Determining the Secretory Contents of the Neuroendocrine Neurones

  26. The use of the Immunohistochemistry: • Intercellular antigens, for instance: immunoglobulines of the kidney glomerular basal membrane • Cell surface antigens, tissue antigen for diagnosing autoimmune diseases • Protein hormones in histopathological diagnosis • Soluble antigens of the cell • Diagnosis of the endocrine tumors • Small amounts of peptides in endocrine or neuroendocrine cells • Immunodeposits • Tumoral markers • Tumor typing

  27. The basic principle of immunofluorescence • To use a fluorescent compound (usually fluorescein) to detect the binding of antigen and antibody • The Ab is labelled with the fluorescent compound • Under a fluorescence microscope, fluorescein appears bright green wherever the binding occurs

  28. Using the fluorescence microscope • Select the correct filter block for the fluorescent compound • Fluorescence fades quickly under UV light; try to limit the time of exposure to UV as much as possible • Use high speed films for photography

  29. Direct Immunofluorescence • The aim is to identify the presence and location of an antigen by the use of a fluorescent labelled specific antibody

  30. Medical applications of direct IF • Renal diseases for evidence of immune deposition • Skin diseases for evidence of immune deposition • Detection of specific antigens, especially those of infective organisms

  31. Application in renal diseases IgG

  32. A section of kidney is placed on a slide; a fluorescein-labeled antiglobulin (specific for IgG, in this case) is added, then rinsed away • The presence of fluorescence in the glomeruli indicates that IgG was deposited prior to the biopsy • IgG is deposited in granular clumps along the capillary walls, enabling a diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis in this case

  34. Double labelling

  35. Indirect Immunofluorescence

  36. Indirect Immunofluorescence • The aim is to identify the presence of antigen specific antibodies in serum. The method is also be used to compare concentration of the antibodies in sera.

  37. Indirect Immunofluorescence • A known antigen is placed on a slide; the patient's serum is added, then rinsed away. • A fluorescein-labeled antiglobulin is added, then rinsed away. • The presence of fluorescence over the antigen indicates the presence of antibodiesto this antigen in the patient.

  38. Diagnosis of Bacterial Diseases • Clostridial diseases (direct) • Brucellacanis (indirect) • Afipiacatei, cat scratch disease (indirect) • Borreliaburgdorferi (indirect) • Coxiellaburnetii, Q Fever (indirect) • Rickettsiarickettsiae, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (indirect)

  39. Diagnosis of Viral Diseases • rabies virus (direct) • bovine immunodeficiency-like virus (indirect) • canine coronavirus (indirect) • canine distemper (indirect) • feline infectious peritonitis (corona-) virus (direct) • porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome (indirect)

  41. Some examples Indirect Immunofluorescence

  42. Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Test for Antibodies to Toxoplasmagondii • Toxoplasma organisms are killed and placed on the slide; the patient’s serum is added, then washed away. • A fluorescein-labeled antiglobulin is added, then washed away. • The presence of the green fluorescence outlining the T. gondii organisms indicates the presence of antibodies in the patient's serum.

  43. Immune-Mediated Disorders • antinuclear antibody (ANA) test (for diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus) • Direct fluorescent antibody test for deposition of Abs in tissues, e.g. kidney, skin

  44. Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Test for Antinuclear Antibodies • Cells from a cultured cell line are placed on a slide; the patient's serum is added, then rinsed away. • A fluorescein-labeled antiglobulin is added, then rinsed away. • The presence of fluorescence in the nucleus of these cells indicates the presence of antibodies to nuclear antigens in the patient.
