Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The supernatant of FBs stimulated by arecoline was used as the conditioned medium for the experimental group whereas the supernatant of FBs without arecoline stimulation was utilized as the conditioned medium for the control group. After 48 h of treatment, the samples were analysed by flow cytometry. Cell density was adjusted to 1 × 107 cells/mL, then macrophages incubated with FITC anti‐human CD14, PE anti‐human CD68, APC anti‐human CD209, PE anti‐human CD163, Cy5 anti‐human CD206 (BioLegend). Finally, the cells were detected with flow cytometry (Cyto‐Flex Beckman).

Mϕs were incubated with Fc block (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, U.S.) for 10 min at 4°C, then incubated with primary-conjugated Abs (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, U.S.) and viability stain (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for 15 min at 4°C. Abs used to stain for IL-4Rα (n = 4 donors) were APC anti-human CD124 (Biolegend, clone G077F6) and Live/Dead Fixable Green (Invitrogen). To amplify IL-4Rα signal, APC FASER kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) was used for 2 cycles, according to kit instructions. Antibodies used to stain for CXCR4 (n = 7 donors) were APC anti-human CD184 (Biolegend, clone12G5) and Live/Dead Fixable Green (Invitrogen). The viability stain used to stain Mϕs for phagocytosis was Live/Dead Fixable Aqua (Invitrogen). Samples were fixed and permeabilized using the Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Kit (Tonbo Biosciences, San Diego, CA, USA), then incubated with primary-conjugated Abs for 45 min at 4°C. PE anti-human CD68 (Biolegend, clone Y1/82A) was used as a pan- Mϕ stain.
To stain for phosphorylated STAT6 (n = 3 donors), True-Phos Perm Buffer (Biolegend), and APC anti-STAT6 Phospho (Tyr641) Ab (Biolegend, clone A15137E) were used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Data were measured on the Accuri C6 (BD) or LSR II (BD) flow cytometer and analyzed using FlowJo v10 software (BD).

Evaluating RUNX1 Impact on M2 Macrophage Polarization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate the effect of RUNX1 on M2 polarization of TAMs, macrophages were washed, trypsin digested or scraped off, and processed into single-cell suspensions after the supernatant was collected for cytokine detection. Then the cell samples were labeled with antibodies as follows: PE anti-human CD68 (333808, BioLegend), FITC anti-human‐CD206 (321104, BioLegend) and APC anti-human‐CD200R (329308, BioLegend). After membrane staining of CD206 and CD200R, intracellular staining for CD68 was performed with Fix/Perm buffer reagents (421002, 420801, BioLegend) according to the manufacturer’s procedure. M2 macrophages were identified as CD68+CD206+ cells, CD68+CD200R+ cells. For the rescue experiments, THP-1 was stimulated with CMs derived from HCT116 NC/RUNX1OE cells along with or without GDC-0449. The cell samples were stained with the above protocol. The cells were measured using a FACS Calibur flow cytometer (BD FACSAria III, BD Biosciences), and the acquired data was analyzed by FlowJo software (Tree Star, San Carlos, Calif., USA).

Macrophages were incubated with Fc block (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, U.S.) for 10 minutes at 4°C, then incubated with primary-conjugated antibodies (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, U.S.) and viability stain (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, U.S.) for 15 minutes at 4°C. Antibodies used to stain for IL-4Rα were APC anti-human CD124 (IL-4Rα) (Biolegend, clone G077F6, 1:100) and Live/Dead Fixable Green (Invitrogen, 1:200). To amplify IL-4Rα signal, APC FASER kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) was used for two cycles, according to kit instructions. viability stain used to stain macrophages for phagocytosis was Live/Dead Fixable Aqua (Invitrogen, 1:200).

For intracellular staining, cells were stimulated with 25 ng/mL phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and 250 ng/mL ionomycin (both from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) for 4 h in the presence of Golgi-Stop (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA, USA). PBMCs were stained with surface anti-human CD11c (BV510; BD Biosciences; 563026) and anti-human PD-L1 (FITC; Biolegend San Diego, USA; 393606) antibodies. The cells were permeabilized and fixed with CytoPerm/CytoFix (BD Biosciences) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. After fixation and permeabilization, cells were stained with anti-human CD68 (PE; Biolegend; 12–0689–42) and anti-human IL-10 (APC; Biolegend; 506807). Flow cytometry was performed using CytoFLEX (Beckman Coulter, Fullerton, CA, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
