In this work, the Bodenmiller group extends Imaging mass cytometry (IMC) to low-abundance markers through incorporation of the DNA-based signal amplification by exchange reaction, immuno-SABER. Using this novel method, the tumor immune microenvironment in human melanoma was analyzed by simultaneous imaging of 18 markers with immuno-SABER and 20 markers without amplification. SABER-IMC enabled the identification of immune cell phenotypic markers that are not detectable with IMC alone.
