Richard, I did a lot of work on cox2 a while ago on ffpe tissue and I was not ever able to get results I was satisfied with. I would be really interested in this as well, sometimes it just takes finding the right clone and the right pretreatment, I am not there yet with cox2 even though several people gave me their protocols I could not get them to work well.

If this holds up, get ready to start doing a lot of COX-2 IHC. Does anyone have a good mAb to COX-2 that works on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue that they would recommend? Thank you.
