Abstract :
[en] Recent technical advances, such as single-cell RNA sequencing and mass cytometry, improve identification of cell types and subsets in a range of healthy and diseased tissues at the expense of their cellular and molecular context. Here, we present a protocol for in situ multispectral imaging to map myeloid cell heterogeneity in tissue cryosections, describing steps for cutting sequential sections, antibody titration, and building a spectral library. We then detail procedures for multispectral imaging and preparing data for downstream analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Goossens et al. (2022).
