Evaluation of Cell Proliferation in Rat Tissues with BrdU, PCNA, Ki-67(MIB-5) Immunohistochemistry and In Situ Hybridization for Histone mRNA

Abstract

The standard method for assessment of cell proliferation in paraffin-embedded tissue sections is 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) immunohistochemistry (IHC). BrdU can be administered to laboratory animals via IP injections, is readily incorporated into nuclei during the DNA synthetic phase of the cell cycle, and is detected with an anti-BrdU antibody. This method has several disadvantages, and an accurate method for evaluation of proliferative activity that can substitute for BrdU IHC, when necessary, is of great interest to investigators. Alternative methods for detection of proliferating cells in tissue sections are proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) IHC, Ki-67 IHC, and in situ hybridization (ISH) for histone mRNA. To determine the optimal choice, we analyzed the correlation of anti-PCNA, anti-Ki-67(MIB-5), and histone mRNA labeling indices (LIs) with anti-BrdU LI in rat highly replicative (renewing) tissues. The correlation between anti-BrdU and histone mRNA LIs, as well as the correlation between anti-BrdU and anti-Ki-67 LIs, was statistically significant. There was no significant correlation between anti-BrdU and anti-PCNA LIs. These results suggest that both ISH for histone mRNA and IHC with MIB-5 are preferable techniques for assessment of cell proliferation in rat paraffin-embedded renewing tissues compared to PCNA IHC. They can substitute for BrdU IHC when necessary.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
