Description

Intercellular substance staining kit for digital pathological scanning analysis system
Technical Field
The invention relates to a intercellular substance staining kit, in particular to a intercellular substance staining kit for a digital pathology scanning analysis system.
Background
The tumor stroma is composed of cancer-associated fibroblasts, endothelial cells, amyloid cells, pericytes, lymphocytes, and extracellular matrix. The tumor microenvironment plays an important role in the growth process of tumors. The tumor stroma such as fibroblast, endothelial cell, inflammatory cell, pericyte and extracellular matrix plays a decisive role in the biological behavior (growth, infiltration, metastasis and the like) of the tumor.
The tumor-stromal ratio (TSR), the ratio of tumor cells to the stromal fraction within tumor tissue, has been shown in several previous studies to be: TSR is an independent prediction factor for prognosis of breast cancer, cervical cancer, esophageal cancer and other malignant tumor patients.
The evaluation of the tumor-to-stroma ratio in the current study is mainly performed by staining postoperative pathological sections and then manually calculating TSR values by experienced pathologists. Among them, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining is a commonly used staining method due to its easy operation and low cost. The dyeing is carried out according to the principle that different components of tissues or cells have different affinities and different dyeing properties for basic dye (hematoxylin) and acid dye (eosin), cell nuclei and the like consisting of acid substances are dyed into distinct bluish purple by the hematoxylin, and various components containing the basic substances, such as cytoplasm, muscle fibers, collagen fibers and the like, show red with different depths. However, the result has very large uncertainty and non-repeatability by manually calculating the TSR value, 10% is used as a value interval at present, TSR calculation within the range of 40% -60% is a difficult point for evaluation, and the accuracy of TSR evaluation can be greatly improved by adopting digital image analysis equipment.
The conventional hematoxylin staining solution is usually prepared by a Harris formula or a Drill formula, but the staining solution prepared by the Harris formula has a good staining effect only when the preparation is finished, is easy to generate precipitates and gradually loses the staining effect after being placed for a long time, is relatively difficult to generate precipitates in the Drill formula, and has a poor effect in the analysis of a digital image with higher requirements on color vividness, contrast and accuracy.
Therefore, it is a trend to design HE staining kits dedicated to digital image analysis devices in order to make the experimental procedure more convenient, accurate and fast.

The intercellular substance staining kit for the digital pathology scanning analysis system adopts a hematoxylin-eosin staining system to carry out contrast staining on the intercellular substance, and because the digital pathology scanning analysis system has higher requirements on the accuracy, the contrast and the color uniformity of the staining, the staining solution with a common formula often cannot achieve the ideal effect. The dyeing effect of the traditional hematoxylin-eosin dyeing solution is greatly influenced by temperature, and the dyeing solution disclosed by the invention has a stable effect within a temperature range of 10-30 ℃ and almost has no color difference.

Finally, the tumor-to-stroma ratio is automatically calculated by software according to the tumor-to-stroma classified above, and as can be seen from fig. 2, the image is a low-stroma ratio image with a stroma ratio value of 18%, and as can be seen from fig. 3, the image is a high-stroma ratio image with a stroma ratio value of 65%.
Serial sections of the same sample were stained at 10 ℃, 25 ℃ and 30 ℃ using the kits of examples 1-4, respectively, and then subjected to interstitial ratio analysis using a digital pathology scanning analysis system, with the results: the calculated interstitial ratio values of the same kit at three temperatures and different kits at the same temperature are the same (the ratio of the interstitial to the area of the selected tumor region is reserved with two decimal places), and the kit disclosed by the invention has a stable result within the range of 10-30 ℃.
Example 7 analysis procedure for digital pathological Scan analysis System
The principle flow of the scanning analysis method described in this embodiment is shown in fig. 4, and includes the steps of: hematoxylin-eosin staining of tumor sections; carrying out digital pathological scanning on the slices; selecting a tumor area; and (5) processing and analyzing the images, and calculating to obtain the tumor stroma ratio.
Wherein, the tumor region selection is completed in the scanned image by the pathology household software, the region with the tumor cells at all the boundaries is selected, and the surrounding stroma tissue without the tumor cells is not selected. In some cases, the analysis can be performed automatically by an analysis system, and the selected convolutional neural network can be trained to select the tumor region when the analysis system is set up.
The image processing and analysis are completed by an established tumor interstitial ratio analysis model, and the model establishment method comprises the following steps: selecting a tumor region in the image, then carrying out tumor and stroma labeling on the obtained tumor region image, and forming a training set by the labeled image; and training the selected convolutional neural network by using the training set to form a tumor-to-mesenchymal ratio analysis model. In the initial stage of model establishment, a pathologist selects a tumor region and labels tumors and stroma, the labeled images form a training set to train the selected convolutional neural network, when the initial convolutional neural network is trained (for example, the training set is 50 images), the model which is trained primarily is used to label (or can comprise selection) other images, then the pathologist checks and corrects the images, and then the images are added into the training set to retrain the initial model (for example, 20 images are added, and the training set is changed into 70 images), and the process is repeated continuously to enable the model to be perfect. Finally, a mature tumor interstitial ratio analysis model is obtained.
The calculated relationship between the tumor stroma ratio and the prognosis evaluation is: the low interstitial ratio is obtained when the interstitial ratio is 50% or less, the high interstitial ratio is obtained when the interstitial ratio is 50% or more, and the prognosis is poor when the high interstitial ratio is obtained. Compared with the original manual calculation result, the calculated tumor stroma ratio numerical value has the advantages of obviously reduced error, higher accuracy and greatly improved speed. The working efficiency is greatly improved for the hospital pathology department with hundreds of pathological sections to be diagnosed every day.
The foregoing detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the invention has been presented. It should be understood that numerous modifications and variations could be devised by those skilled in the art in light of the present teachings without departing from the inventive concepts. Therefore, the technical solutions available to those skilled in the art through logic analysis, reasoning and limited experiments based on the prior art according to the concept of the present invention should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
