    Figure Immunohistochemical staining of tumor sections for LGI1 (×40)

    Deparaffinized sections from the patient's tumor immunostained with a commercial polyclonal anti-LGI1 antibody, followed by rhodamine-conjugated secondary antibody (A, top) or only with the same secondary antibody omitting the anti-LGI1 serum (B, bottom). Many LGI1-positive cells (red) are identified within the tumor (A); no tumor cells were stained, other than some connective tissue or vessels with the rhodamine-conjugated secondary antibody alone (B). LGI1 = Leucine-rich glioma-inactivated-1.
