2 OUTLINE IHC on retina: technical aspects Cell-specific antibodies / features of disease Drug induced retinal remodeling: a case presentation OUTLINE IHC on retina: technical aspects Cell-specific antibodies / features of disease Drug induced retinal remodeling: a case presentation Why use IHC to examine the retina? Drug toxicity/disease may affect specific cell population To establish stages of disease (markers), kinetics of cell death Identify by-stander effect Retinal remodeling events (neurons, glial cells) Deciphering molecular mechanisms of disease/ drug toxicity Insights into functional alterations (e.g. protein mislocalization) Assessing response to therapy 2
3 Challenges of IHC in the retina Fixation protocol: which to choose? To trim or not to trim? Embedding media Sectioning Antigen retrieval? Immunoenzymatic vs Immunofluorescence detection? FIXATION PROTOCOLS - Aldehyde derivatives (by immersion and/or perfusion) paraformaldehyde (2%-4%) and/or glutaraldehyde (0.1%-2.5%) - Bouin s fixative - Davidson's fixative MORPHOLOGY ANTIGENICITY Bouin s Paraffin Paraformaldehyde OCT 1) Immersion of entire globe for 24 hrs 1) Slit 5 mm behind limbus 2) Fixation in 4% PF 3) Isolation of posterior cup (remove vitreous!) 2) Transfer to 70% EtOH (can be stored) 4) Trimming 5) Dehydration in gradient conc. of EtOH 4) Fixation in 4% PF/ 2% PF for 24 hrs 6) Trimming of posterior cup (if large eye) 6) Paraffin embedding 7) Dehydration in 15%-30% sucrose 8) Embedding in Optimal Cutting medium (OCT) 3

IHC can be done on eyes/retinas fixed for routine histology, however may require optimizing tissue fixation/embedding. Use of 2-Photon excitation microscopy enables (live) deep-tissue imaging 15
