Validation of an Organ Mapping Antibody Panel for Cyclical Immunofluorescence Microscopy on Normal Human Kidneys

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We describe here validation criteria used to define on organ mapping panel of antibodies that can be used to define 18 cell types and five extracellular matrix compartments using cyclical immunofluorescence (CyCIF) microscopy. As CyCIF does not require specialized instrumentation, and image registration required to assemble CyCIF images can be performed by any laboratory without specialized computational skills, this technology is accessible to any laboratory with access to a fluorescence microscope and digital scanner.
