The recent clinical success of new cancer immunotherapy agents and methods is driving the need to understand the role of immune cells in solid tissues, especially tumors. Immune cell phenotyping via flow cytometry, while a cornerstone of immunology, is not spatially resolved and cannot analyze immune cell subsets in situ in clinical biopsy sections or to determine their interrelationships. To address this problem, a number of methodologies have been developed in attempts to phenotype immune and other cells in images acquired from tissue sections and to assess their organization in the tumor and its microenvironment. This chapter review the staining and multiplex image analysis methods that have been developed for phenotyping immune and other cells in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections.

Phenotyping Multiple Subsets of Immune Cells In Situ in FFPE Tissue Sections: An Overview of Methodologies.

Some somatic illnesses such as peripheral tumours can present with psychiatric symptoms. Many of these are characterized by changes in biomarkers related to the inflammation or immune response. Here, we describe a multispectral imaging protocol that can be used to phenotype immune and other cell types through simultaneous imaging of multiple proteins in sections of peripheral solid tumours and other tissues. This approach can also be used to assess the spatial organization of these cells within the tissue.
