Abstract
Employing a novel mouse model of immune related adverse events (irAEs) induced by combination of anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies, we visualized immune infiltration into the liver, lung, pancreas, and colon. Here, we describe the avidin-biotin conjugate (ABC) method used to stain T cells (CD4 and CD8), B cells (CD19), macrophages (F4/80), and cells bound by the in vivo administered rat anti-mouse antibodies for chromogenic immunohistochemistry (IHC). Using a biotinylated goat anti-rat antibody, we detected the localization of cells bound to the in vivo antibodies for PD-1 and CTLA-4. IHC has advantages over other techniques, namely antibody availability, resistance to photobleaching, and greater sensitivity. Additionally, detection and localization of in vivo antibodies can be used in mice models to infer their therapeutic efficacy, stability, and function.

Background
The last decade has seen the approval of several immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) antibodies in various cancers, which has improved patient survival. However, patients that respond to these ICB develop toxicities known as irAEs. We have previously developed a novel mouse model of irAEs in B6/lpr mice, that developed multiorgan toxicities with immune infiltration, when given a combination of anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 (Adam et al., 2021). Mice were injected with 200 μg of anti-PD1 (BioXCell BE0146), and 100 μg of CTLA-4 (BioXcell BE0131) antibodies intraperitoneally twice a week for 6 weeks. Mice were sacrificed at endpoint, and tissue collected for IHC, to assess the cellular landscape. The injected ICB antibodies derived from rat were visualized in the tissue using a goat anti-rat that recognized the fragment crystallizable (Fc) portion of the IgG rat antibody. This method of detection could be used to evaluate ICB antibodies for toxicity in mice models. Although there are numerous other techniques for visualization or detection of antibodies (de Boer et al., 2015; Mestel, 2017; Knight et al., 2019; Wen et al., 2021), the limitations are the access to large and expensive microscopes, CT scanner, or MRI, which may be inaccessible to many laboratories. Our method is advantageous due to a relatively low expense, accessible selection of conjugated antibodies, and flexibility with IHC kits.
