Immunocytochemistry

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) is a technique for detection and visualization of proteins, or other antigens, in cells using antibodies specifically recognizing the target of interest. The antibody is directly or indirectly linked to a reporter, such as a fluorophore or enzyme. The reporter gives rise to a signal, such as fluorescence or color from an enzymatic reaction, which can be detected in a microscope. The type of microscope used depends on the type of reporter. In ICC, the staining technique is applied on cultured cells or individual cells that have been isolated from eg. tissues, blood samples or mouth swabs. This is in contrast to immunohistochemistry (IHC), where cells are analyzed within intact tissue sections.

Technology

Immunocytochemistry is usually performed in four sequential steps. First, the cells are seeded on a solid support, which is usually a glass slide or a glass-bottom plate. Depending on the type of cells and seeding technique, an incubation time might be necessary before proceeding with immunostaining. In case of seeding adherent cells, the cells will attach to the solid support surface during the incubation, which varies from half an hour to 24 h for the different cell types. In the second step, the cells are subjected to immunostaining, which involves fixation, permeabilization, and antibody incubation. Fixation retains the proteins at their location in the cell and preserves their chemical and structural state at the time of fixation. It can be done by crosslinking or by precipitating the proteins using organic solvents. Upon permeabilization, membranes are punctured with the use of solvents or detergents, allowing the relatively large antibodies to cross the cellular membranes. The permeabilization requires fixation, and hence limits the technique to studying dead cells. During antibody incubation, the antibodies are allowed to bind to target antigens within the cells, after which unbound antibodies are removed by washing. In the third step, the cells and the locations of antibodies bound to target antigens are visualized using microscopy. Images are acquired using a camera or other detector, and in the final step, the images are analyzed and cellular structures annotated. Figure 1 describes a typical workflow for ICC using a fluorescent reporter.

Reporters

As for IHC, there are different reporter systems available for ICC (Table 1). One is the use of enzyme-coupled antibodies. After the addition of a substrate, the enzyme catalyzes a reaction that generates a coloured product at the site where the enzyme-coupled antibody is bound in the cells. For example, the commonly used enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) can convert 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB) into a brown precipitate, which can be detected using light-microscopy.

Table 1. Examples of different reporters

Another type of reporter is fluorophores. These molecules can be transiently excited to a higher energy state upon absorption of light with a particular wavelength, and thereafter relax to the ground state while emitting light of a longer wavelength. In this case, a fluorescence microscope is used to excite the fluorophores and to detect their emission. Since different fluorophores are excited by different wavelengths of light and also emit light at different wavelengths, multiple fluorophores with different colors may be combined in the same sample. This enables the acquisition of multicolor images, where each color represents a specific antigen target. However, the number of fluorophores used in the same sample is limited by the spectral overlap of the excitation and emission profiles of the fluorophores, as the signals from fluorophores with similar spectral properties cannot readily be separated.

In addition to fluorophore-labeled antibodies, there are molecules that are fluorescent by themselves and have an intrinsic ability to bind specifically to other molecules. These molecules may be used together with the fluorophore-labeled antibodies. One example is 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), which binds to DNA and is commonly used to visualize the cell nucleus. DAPI is excited by ultraviolet light and then emits light in the blue spectrum. To consider when using fluorophores as reporters is that bleaching will occur when the fluorophores are exposed to light, causing the brightness of the sample to decrease over time.

Direct vs. indirect detection

The detection method for the immunostaining can be either direct or indirect. In the direct method, the molecule of interest is directly targeted by a primary antibody linked to the reporter, giving a rapid and specific method. However, it is usually not sensitive enough for most proteins as the number of present copies of the protein is too low to yield a strong enough signal. In the indirect method, the molecule of interest is targeted by an un-labelled primary antibody, which is in turn detected using a reporter-coupled secondary antibody that recognizes the primary antibody (see Figure 1,(2)). The indirect method is more sensitive due to binding of multiple secondary antibodies to each primary antibody, resulting in signal amplification. Another advantage is also an increased flexibility because of the possibility to vary the primary and secondary antibody combination. Also, since the secondary antibody is targeting the constant region of the primary antibody, which is species-specific, the same secondary antibody can be used for all primary antibodies raised in a given species. The disadvantages of the indirect method are the neccessity of a more laborious and time-consuming protocol, and the risk of non-specific binding of the secondary antibody.

Specific examples

In the subcellular section of the Human Protein Atlas, ICC with fluorescence as a reporter (ICC-IF) is used to analyze the subcellular distribution of proteins (Barbe L et al. (2008)). For each protein the subcellular localization is studied in up to three different human cell lines, mainly using antibodies produced within the Human Protein Atlas project. Cells cultured in vitro, are fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized by treatment with the detergent Triton X-100, and stained by indirect immunofluorescence (Stadler C et al. (2010)). In addition to the antibody targeting the protein of interest, two reference marker antibodies are used to stain the endoplasmic reticulum and microtubules, respectively. and the cells are also counterstained with the nuclear probe DAPI. A confocal laser scanning microscope equipped with a 63x magnification oil immersion objective is used to acquire high-resolution images of the stainings. The images are manually annotated to provide a description of subcellular localization and staining characteristics. Furthermore, each location is given a reliability score in order to indicate if the results are supported by external experimental data or internal antibody validation. In the end, a knowledge-based revision of the subcellular distribution is performed in a gene-centric manner, taking into account the staining of one or multiple antibodies. Figure 2 shows typical results from ICC-IF in the Subcellular Section.
