1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Three-dimensional immunohistochemistry (3D-IHC) shows the organization of molecular assemblies in the context of tissue architecture. Deep and rapid antibody penetration into 3D tissues and highly sensitive detection are crucial for high-throughput analysis of 3D-IHC imaging. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for a nanobody (nAb)-based 3D-IHC technique, namely POD-nAb/FT-GO 3D-IHC, for high-speed and high-sensitivity detection of targets within 1-mm-thick mouse brain tissues. Peroxidase-fused nAb (POD-nAb) is a genetically encoded recombinant antibody, which consists of a camelid nAb and a variant of horseradish peroxidase, and fluorochromized tyramide-glucose oxidase (FT-GO) is a fluorescent tyramide signal amplification (TSA) system. POD-nAb/FT-GO 3D-IHC incorporates three main components: 1) tissue permeabilization, 2) POD-nAb binding, and 3) 3D-TSA reaction with FT-GO. POD-nAbs enhance signal penetration depth and allow for highly sensitive detection when combined with FT-GO signal amplification. By using the 3D-IHC protocol provided herein, we can visualize target molecules in mouse brain tissues of 1-mm thickness with drastic signal enhancement within three days. This protocol for POD-nAb/FT-GO 3D-IHC could facilitate structural and molecular interrogation of 3D tissues. Key features • A high-speed 3D-IHC technique that combines POD-nAbs and FT-GO signal amplification, offering faster results than conventional 3D-IHC using IgG antibodies. • Visualization of somata and processes of neuronal and glial cells in millimeter-thick mouse brain tissues within three days. • POD-nAb/FT-GO 3D-IHC offers 9.0- and 6.8-fold signal amplification compared with EGFP fluorescence and 3D-IHC using a synthetic fluorophore-conjugated anti-GFP nAb, respectively. • POD-nAbs, camelid nanobodies fused with peroxidase, are immunoreagents with high specificity, selectivity, and reproducibility.
