Overview of Multiplex Immunohistochemistry and Immunofluorescence Techniques 
in the Lung Cancer Immunotherapy

Lung cancer is the most common malignancy and is a major public health problem worldwide. Programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors provide a new treatment strategy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The existing biomarkers all have advantages and...

The existing biomarkers all have advantages and defects in selecting patients who benefit from immunotherapy. The multiplex immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence (mIHC/IF) provides multiplex staining, allows comprehensive studies of cellular composition, cellular functions and cell-cell interactions. A number of studies have used mIHC/IF to explore specific immune cells in tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and found that it is helpful for clinical prognosis and efficacy prediction in patients with lung cancer.
