Abstract
CD45 is a pan-leukocyte marker, and CD45 stain is widely used to determine the extent of inflammatory cell infiltration and its association with tissue injury. In this manuscript, we share a reliable immunohistochemistry (IHC) protocol for CD45 staining in sections of paraffin-embedded mouse kidney. A rat anti-CD45 antibody was used as primary antibody, and a mouse adsorbed biotin-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG was selected as secondary antibody. A horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linked avidin/biotin detection system was used to amplify the signal, which was detected with 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine (DAB). With this protocol, we show that the CD45 antibody recognizes cells of hematolymphoid lineage in bone marrow, as well as monocyte/macrophages in liver and lung tissue. The utility of this protocol in pathology research was indicated by dramatically increased CD45-positive (CD45+) cells in the kidneys of a mouse model of diabetes. Double staining for CD45 and injury marker KIM-1 showed accumulated CD45+ cells around injured tubular cells. CD45 and F4/80 macrophage staining on adjacent tissue sections revealed overlap of CD45+ cells with other inflammatory cells.
Keywords: CD45 (CD45)Background
CD45 is a pan-leukocyte protein with tyrosine phosphatase activity involved in the regulation of signal transduction in hematopoiesis. It belongs to the receptor type protein of tyrosine phosphatase family. It is heavily glycosylated and expressed at high levels on nucleated hematopoietic cells, including granulocytes, lymphocytes, macrophages/histiocytes, mast cells, monocytes, basophils, and plasma cells.
Clinically, CD45 is mainly used to confirm the presence of inflammatory cells and the hematopoietic nature of tumors. In basic research, CD45 is widely used as a pan-leukocyte marker in flow cytometry and histology studies.
Since the method for IHC detection of CD45 in mouse tissue is of broad interest to the scientific community, we therefore share our optimized protocol (Zheng et al., 2016) in detail in this manuscript. We present images from tissues with known CD45 positive (CD45+) cells and focus on kidneys of diabetic mice, where we demonstrate dramatically increased diabetes-induced CD45 expression, which co-localized with other biomarkers in the kidney.
