Reagent Kit, Staining Method, and Application for Dual Immunohistochemistry Combined with Elastin Fiber Staining

A reagent kit, staining method, and application for combining dual immunohistochemistry with elastin fiber staining. The reagent kit includes a combination of primary antibodies, consisting of anti-CK7 and anti-CD34 monoclonal antibodies from different species, such as rabbit anti-human CK7 monoclonal antibody and mouse anti-human CD34 monoclonal antibody. By selecting CK7 and CD34 as the primary antibody combination, the growth pattern of tumor epithelium can be accurately indicated, and the proliferation and thickening of alveolar septal fibrous tissue caused by tumors can be clearly revealed, as opposed to structural changes of alveoli induced by other factors. Combined with independent Victoria blue staining, the elastin fibers of the walls of arteries and veins, as well as the pleura of the lungs, can be clearly visualized, aiding in the assessment of the integrity of elastin fibers on the lung surface and in determining the extent of tumor infiltration.
