Pathological detection using immunohistochemistry (IHC) has become an indispensable process in the diagnosis confirmation of various cancers. However, the production of monoclonal antibodies is always very complex, expensive and time-consuming, and the batch differences are significant due to the corporeity and health statuses of animals may be different. In this work, an aptamer-based histochemistry (aptahistochemistry) assay was developed using a DNA aptamer for specific diagnosis of clinical breast cancer tissue sections. This aptahistochemistry assay can specifically distinguish Luminal A breast cancer molecular subtype from Luminal B (HER2+), HER2-enriched, and triple-negative breast cancer molecular subtypes, as well as para-carcinoma tissue, mastitis tissue and normal breast tissue. The accuracy of this aptahistochemistry assay for the diagnosis of Luminal A breast cancer was as high as 80%, which showed a great potential for clinical pathological diagnosis applications.
