Abstract
Introduction: The World Health Organization 2021 lung cancer classification highlights the central role of immunohistochemistry (IHC) in diagnostic pathology. Despite traditional IHC being essential, its limitation to one marker per tissue section brings challenges, particularly when facing cytological limitedly sized samples. To overcome these challenges, multiplex immunocytochemistry (mICC) techniques offer the simultaneous detection of multiple markers from a single section. These advances complement the highly complex imaging techniques that enable additional analyses of cellular interactions.
Methods: The present study outlines a comprehensive mICC methodology of an automated multiplex immunoperoxidase staining method and multiple tissue hybrid controls for ICC/mICC. Protocols are presented in detail and demonstrate a careful approach to optimizing various markers for diagnostic workup including immunotherapy.
Conclusion: Multiplex IHC/ICC emerges as a transformative force in biomedical diagnostics and research. Beyond simultaneous marker detection, it unravels complexities within tissues - unveiling co-localization nuances, deciphering expression patterns, and enhancing understanding of cellular populations. As personalized treatments gain prominence, the study emphasizes the heightened importance of diagnostic tools and sample adequacy. The present methodological study, encapsulating an automated multiplex immunoperoxidase staining method, symbolizes a stride towards precision in pulmonary carcinoma diagnosis. Multi-tissue controls represent a key element in quality assurance in pathology laboratories.
期刊介绍：
With articles offering an excellent balance between clinical cytology and cytopathology, ''Acta Cytologica'' fosters the understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms behind cytomorphology and thus facilitates the translation of frontline research into clinical practice. As the official journal of the International Academy of Cytology and affiliated to over 50 national cytology societies around the world, ''Acta Cytologica'' evaluates new and existing diagnostic applications of scientific advances as well as their clinical correlations. Original papers, review articles, meta-analyses, novel insights from clinical practice, and letters to the editor cover topics from diagnostic cytopathology, gynecologic and non-gynecologic cytopathology to fine needle aspiration, molecular techniques and their diagnostic applications. As the perfect reference for practical use, ''Acta Cytologica'' addresses a multidisciplinary audience practicing clinical cytopathology, cell biology, oncology, interventional radiology, otorhinolaryngology, gastroenterology, urology, pulmonology and preventive medicine.
