Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the pathological detection technical field, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a quality control product for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry, a matching reagent, and a rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the main method of intraoperative biopsy is intraoperative frozen section HE staining. The frozen section is also called intraoperative rapid frozen section. The advantage of the frozen section is that the examination is rapid. Pathologists rapidly freeze the lesion tissue removed by a doctor in a frozen section machine to prepare a tissue section, the tissue section is dyed by hematoxylin-eosin, and the pathologist observes under a microscope in real time to make a judgment in a short time. The whole process is generally completed within half an hour. However, since the HE staining judgment only relies on morphological evidence, the tissue inevitably forms crystals in the freezing process, the cell morphology performance quality is poor, the cells are deformed, artificial artifacts are generated, and the limited material of the frozen section further increases the difficulty of diagnosis, and there is a possibility of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.

[0003] The intraoperative frozen immunohistochemical diagnosis can well make up for the defects of the intraoperative HE staining which only relies on morphological judgment. For some diseases which are difficult to judge the benignity and malignancy from morphology, specific antigens can be marked by immunohistochemical staining in a short time, immunological evidence is increased, diagnosis is made according to the immunological results, the defects of the intraoperative HE staining which is difficult to diagnose are filled, the accuracy of diagnosis is improved, micro lesions are helped to be found, and the false negative rate is reduced. Due to the particularity of the purpose of use, the accuracy of the result is particularly important. The quality control system of the frozen immunohistochemistry as a new detection means is still in the exploratory stage. Under the condition that the system is not perfect, the positive control is particularly important.

[0004] The limited quality control products on the market are mainly paraffin-embedded tissue wax blocks and cell line wax blocks. The quality control products are mainly for conventional immunohistochemistry, and antigen repair is required before use. The operation is complicated, inconvenient to use, and the price is high, so it is not suitable for the quality control of intraoperative frozen immunohistochemistry. The frozen immunohistochemistry is used for pathological diagnosis of intraoperative patients. Due to the unpredictability of the use, the pretreated quality control product is not suitable for the quality control of intraoperative immunohistochemistry. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a preparation method of a quality control product for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry. The prepared quality control product does not need to be subjected to antigen repair before use, the operation is simple, and the product stability is good.

[0006] The second purpose of the present application is to provide a matching reagent of a quality control product for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry.

[0007] The third purpose of the present application is to provide an intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is:

[0009] A preparation method of a quality control product for intraoperative rapid immunohistochemistry, comprising the following steps:

[0010] (1) A positive cell line containing a specific antigen expression is preserved using a preservation solution to obtain a preservation solution containing the positive cell line; the preservation solution is composed of the following components: 0.5wt%-3wt% KCl, 0.5wt%-3wt% NaH2PO4, 0.1wt%-2wt% Na2HPO4, 15vol%-35vol% low molecular alcohol, 2wt%-6wt% polyhydroxy component, and water as the solvent; the number of hydroxyl functional groups in the low molecular alcohol is not more than 2, and the number of hydroxyl functional groups in the polyhydroxy component is more than 3;

[0011] (2) The preservation solution containing the positive cell line obtained in step (1) is added dropwise on a glass slide and dried to semi-dry;

[0012] (3) The position of the positive cell line on the glass slide in step (2) is added dropwise with a fixing solution to fix it, the fixing solution is removed, and it is dried; the fixing solution is composed of the following components by volume fraction: 5%-15% formalin, 15%-25% dimethyl sulfoxide, and the balance is water.

[0013] The preparation method of the quality control product for intraoperative rapid immunohistochemistry of the present application uses a preservation solution and a fixing solution with specific components, which can interact with each other, so that the quality control product prepared by the present application has the following advantages: no antigen repair is required before use, direct synchronization with frozen section staining is achieved, and operation is convenient; good stability, can be stored in cold storage and used at room temperature like paraffin sections; lower cost, conducive to popularization and use.

[0014] The mass fraction of formaldehyde in formalin is 35%-40%. Formalin can play a fixing role, maintain the original morphology of the cells, and make the antigenicity of the cells well maintained, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) can act as a moisturizing agent and a transdermal agent.

[0015] Further, the positive cell line is SKBR-3, MCF-7, hela, hTERT-HME1 or hTCEpi (corneal epithelial cell line).

[0016] Further, the cell amount of the positive cell line is 3×10 5 ~ 8×10 5 / cm 2 .

[0017] Further, the low molecular alcohol is one or any combination of ethylene glycol, methanol, and ethanol. The polyhydroxy component is one or any combination of mannitol, trehalose, and sucrose.

[0018] Further, the air-drying to semi-dry in step (2) is performed at room temperature for 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Air-drying to semi-dry is air-drying to slightly wet, not completely dry. The time of 30 seconds to 2 minutes can achieve better staining effect, making it easier to read.

[0019] Further, the drying in step (3) is air-drying at room temperature for 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Air-drying is air-drying to no flowing water on the smear, which can be adjusted according to the ambient temperature and humidity.

[0020] Further, the dropwise volume of the preservation solution is 0.5 to 5 μL. The dropwise volume of the fixing solution is 60 to 100 μL. Further, the dropwise volume of the preservation solution is 0.5 to 2 μL.

[0021] Further, the fixing time is 3 to 10 minutes. Further, the fixing time is 3 to 8 minutes. The time of 3 to 10 minutes can ensure that the fixing solution has a good fixing effect on the positive cell line, and at the same time, it will not be over-fixed, which will interfere with the subsequent staining effect.

[0022] Further, the preservation solution is composed of the following components: 0.5 wt% to 2 wt% KCl, 1 wt% to 3 wt% NaH2PO4, 0.1 wt% to 1 wt% Na2HPO4, 15 vol% to 35 vol% low molecular alcohol, and 3 wt% to 5 wt% polyhydroxy component, and the solvent is water. The fixing solution is composed of the following components by volume fraction: 10% to 15% formaldehyde and 15% to 25% dimethyl sulfoxide, and the balance is water.

[0023] Further, the preparation method of the quality control product for intraoperative rapid immunohistochemistry further comprises the following steps: storing the slide after air-drying in step (3) at 4°C or under -20°C refrigeration conditions.

[0024] Further, before using the preservation solution to preserve the positive cell line containing specific antigen expression, the positive cell line culture solution is centrifuged to obtain the precipitate, the positive cell line is washed with PBS, and then the excess PBS is removed. Further, the centrifugal speed is 1000 to 1500 r / min, and the centrifugal time is 4 to 8 minutes.

[0025] Further, before adding the preservation solution containing the positive cell line containing specific antigen expression on the slide, an area is circled on the slide using an immunohistochemical oil pen, and the size is about 0.5 to 1 cm 2 The preservation solution is added to the circled area.

[0026] The quality control material of the present invention for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry can be stored for more than 6 months under refrigeration and more than 6 days at room temperature; it has strong anti-interference ability. In the intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method, frozen tissue sections need to be fixed after freezing. Whether or not the quality control material undergoes a secondary fixation process, it does not affect the staining effect; after staining, the quality control material is diffusely positive, which is relatively easy to interpret.

[0027] The technical solution adopted for the supporting reagents of the quality control materials for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry of the present invention is as follows:

[0028] A quality control reagent for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry includes a preservation solution and a fixative. The preservation solution consists of the following components: 0.5wt%–3wt% KCl, 0.5wt%–3wt% NaH2PO4, 0.1wt%–2wt% Na2HPO4, 15vol%–35vol% low molecular weight alcohol, and 2wt%–6wt% polyhydroxy component, with water as the solvent. The low molecular weight alcohol contains no more than two hydroxyl functional groups, and the polyhydroxy component contains three or more hydroxyl functional groups. The fixative consists of the following components in volume fractions: 5%–15% formalin, 15%–25% dimethyl sulfoxide, with the balance being water.

[0029] The accompanying reagents for quality control products used in intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry of the present invention combine preservation solutions and fixatives of specific components to prepare quality control products for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry. Through the synergistic effect between the components, the quality control products have good stability and can be used directly without antigen retrieval.

[0030] Furthermore, the preservation solution in the accompanying reagent consists of the following components: 0.5wt%–2wt% KCl, 1wt%–3wt% NaH2PO4, 0.1wt%–1wt% Na2HPO4, 15vol%–35vol% low molecular weight alcohol, 3wt%–5wt% polyhydroxy components, and water as the solvent.

[0031] Furthermore, the fixative in the accompanying reagent consists of the following components in volume fractions: 10%–15% formalin, 15%–25% dimethyl sulfoxide, and the balance being water.

[0032] The technical solution adopted by the intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method of the present invention is as follows:

[0033] A rapid intraoperative frozen immunohistochemistry method includes the following steps: thawing the quality control sample obtained by the above method after refrigeration or freezing, attaching the tissue to be tested to the non-positive cell line position on the quality control sample, fixing it with fixative, washing it with water after fixation, and performing immunohistochemical staining.

[0034] In the intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method, the lesion tissue is rapidly frozen in a cryostat to prepare sections. After the quality control material is thawed, the frozen sections can adhere better to the glass slide due to the temperature difference between the tissue sections and the quality control material.

[0035] The intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method of the present invention uses the quality control material of the present invention for intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry as a positive control. It can be used for re-examination of frozen immunohistochemistry reagent samples, monitoring of the staining process, and evaluation of immediate staining results, ensuring the accuracy of intraoperative immunohistochemistry staining results, providing pathologists with more accurate evidence, and thus better and more accurately guiding surgical plans.

[0036] The intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method of the present invention fills the gap in the field of intraoperative frozen immunohistochemistry quality control, solves the problem of the lack of positive controls in intraoperative frozen immunohistochemistry, and is conducive to promoting the establishment of an intraoperative frozen immunohistochemistry quality control system.

[0037] Furthermore, in the intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method, the fixation time of the slide in the fixative is 30 seconds to 5 minutes. The washing time is 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Even further, in the intraoperative rapid frozen immunohistochemistry method, the fixation time of the slide in the fixative is 30 seconds to 2 minutes. The washing time is 1 minute. Attached Figure Description

[0178] V. Experimental Examples

[0179] Comparison of preservation solution formulations in Experiment Example 1

[0180] The remaining 6 groups (p63-A) from Example 4 and the remaining 6 groups (p63-B) from Comparative Example 1 were subjected to rapid frozen immunohistochemical staining after the storage time was completed (the immunohistochemical method was performed according to the steps in Example 18). The staining results are as follows. Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown in Table 1.

[0181] Table 1. Stability of the quality control samples in Example 4 and Comparative Example 1 at 4°C

[0182]

[0183] Depend on Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown in Table 1, the quality control sample in Example 4 is stable and can still be used normally after being stored at 4°C for 6 months. The quality control sample has good thermal stability. However, the preservation solution in Comparative Example 1 did not contain trehalose, so its preservation stability was poor. The antigen began to be lost after being stored at 4°C for two months, and was completely lost after being stored for 4 months, so it could not be used as a positive reference.

[0184] Comparison of Fixative Formulations in Experiment Example 2

[0185] 2.1 Comparison when methanol is used as the stationary phase

[0186] The remaining 6 groups (numbered CK-A) from Example 5 and the remaining 6 groups (numbered CK-B) from Comparative Example 2 were used for rapid frozen immunohistochemical detection after the storage time was completed (the immunohistochemical method was performed according to the steps in Example 19). The staining results are as follows. Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown in Table 2.

[0187] Table 2 Quality control room temperature storage stability (25°C) of Example 5 and Comparative Example 2

[0188]

[0189]

[0190] From Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Table 2, the quality control in Example 5 is stable in properties, and can still be used normally after being placed at room temperature for 6 days, while the formaldehyde in the fixing solution of Comparative Example 2 is replaced by methanol, and the storage stability is poor, the antigen starts to lose after being stored at room temperature for 1 day, and the antigen is completely lost after being stored for 3 days, and cannot be used as a positive reference.

[0191] 2.2 Comparison of using ethanol and glacial acetic acid in fixing solution

[0192] The staining results of the quality control in Example 20 and Comparative Example 3 are shown in CK5 / 6-A group and CK5 / 6-B group in Table 2, and it can be seen that compared with the well-stained CK5 / 6-A group, the quality control in CK5 / 6-B group replaces the formula of the fixing solution with ethanol + glacial acetic acid, which causes the cell membrane to rupture, the cytoplasm to melt out, the antigen to lose, and cannot be used as a positive reference. Figure 8

[0193] Experimental Example 3 Air-drying time comparison

[0194] The staining results of the quality control in Example 21 and Comparative Example 4 are shown in CK wide-A group and CK wide-B group in Table 2, and it can be seen that the staining effect of CK wide-A group is better, which is obviously stronger than that of CK wide-B group, so after adding the preservation solution on the slide, it only needs to be slightly air-dried, and cannot be air-dried for too long. Figure 9 Experimental Example 4

[0195] 4.1 Breast sentinel lymph node detection

[0196] In this experimental example, the quality control (CK wide quality control) in Example 1 is used to detect the breast sentinel lymph node, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0197] (1) Take the breast sentinel lymph node and place it on the frozen head with a little OCT embedding agent, freeze to the appropriate hardness, prepare 3 frozen sections with a thickness of about 4 μm, and one of which is pasted on the slide with CK wide quality control;

[0198] (2) Fix the slide in the fixing solution for 1 min, 2 sections are subjected to HE staining, and 1 section is subjected to CK wide rapid immunohistochemical staining;

[0199]

[0200] ​​(3) After staining, dehydrate and mount the slides, observe the slides, and record the staining results of the quality control samples and the tissue to be tested. Repeat the above steps three times. The results are shown in Table 3. Figure 10 (As shown in Group ① of Table 3).

[0201] Table 3. Results of CK quality control sample and breast sentinel lymph node staining.

[0202]

[0203]

[0204] From Table 3 and Figure 10 It can be seen that in this experimental case, the CK quality control sample was positive, and the test tissue showed positive small cell clusters. Therefore, this case is a case of micrometastasis of the sentinel lymph nodes in the breast, and it is necessary to expand the surgical wound and perform breast lymph node dissection.

[0205] 4.2 Detection of breast tissue excision samples

[0206] This experimental example uses the quality control material (p63 quality control material) from Example 2 to test breast tissue excised samples. The specific steps are as follows:

[0207] a. Take breast tissue, place it on a cryoprobe with a small amount of OCT embedding agent, freeze to a suitable hardness, and prepare 3 frozen sections with a thickness of about 4 μm. One of them is attached to a glass slide with p63 quality control material.

[0208] b. Fix in fixative for 1 min, perform HE staining on 2 sections, and perform p63 rapid immunohistochemical staining on 1 section;

[0209] c. After staining, dehydrate and mount the slides, observe the sections, and record the staining results of the quality control samples and the tissue to be tested. Repeat the above steps three times. The results are shown in Table 4. Figure 11 (As shown in Group ② of Table 4).

[0210] Table 4. Results of staining of p63 quality control material and breast tissue excise.

[0211] Group p63 quality control Tissue lesion to be tested Result reliability Result interpretation ① + + Reliable Non-invasive carcinoma ② + - Reliable Invasive carcinoma ③ - + Unreliable Need to retest ④ - - Unreliable Need to retest

[0212] From Table 4 and Figure 11 It can be seen that in this experimental case, the p63 quality control was positive, while the p63 staining of the lesion site in the test tissue was negative. Based on HE morphological judgment, this case is invasive tubular carcinoma of the breast, which requires expanding the surgical scope and performing surgical margin detection.
