Anti cd28 cd49d antibodies

Manufactured by BD

Anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies are laboratory reagents used to activate and stimulate T cells. These antibodies bind to the CD28 and CD49d receptors on the surface of T cells, providing co-stimulatory signals that enhance T cell proliferation and cytokine production.

Intracellular Cytokine Staining of T Cells

For intracellular cytokine staining, T cells were rested with IL-2 (100 U/mL) overnight and then stimulated with PepMixes encompassing viral or control proteins (JPT) at 0.5 nmol/μL, along with anti-CD49d/CD28 antibodies (BD Biosciences) at 1:1,000 for co-stimulation and Golgi stop at 1 μL/mL. SEB and Actin were utilized as controls. T cells were stained with cell surface markers (CD3, CD4, and CD8), followed by permeabilization with Cytofix/Cytoperm (BD Biosciences), washing, and staining with IFN-γ-APC (BioLegend), IL-2-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and TNF-α-PE (BD Biosciences).

Screening TCR-transduced PBMCs for Antigen Reactivity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure antigen-specific reactivity of recovered TCR sequences, TCRs were expressed and screened in Jurkat-NFAT-GFP cells as described previously (34 (link)). Paired TCR alpha and beta chains of interest were cloned into a retroviral pMSGV construct as previously described (17 (link)). PBMCs for retroviral transduction were processed and cultured according to our rececent publication(19 (link), 34 (link)). To assess function of the transduced TCRs in human PBMCs, TCR expressing cells were mixed with K562-A2 cells at a ratio of 1:2 (Effector:Target) in the RPMI media and supplemented with 1 μg/ml of anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies (BD Biosciences, 347690) and 1 μg/ml of cognate peptides. For PBMCs, supernatants were collected after 48 hours and analyzed by ELISA (BD Biosciences) to estimate IFN-γ concentration. PBMCs transduced by the vector without a TCR was used as a negative control.

Stimulation and Immunophenotyping of PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMC were suspended in culture medium (complete medium) for viability test with trypan blue (Gibco) and rested in an incubator overnight at 37°C, with 5% CO2. After counting, cells were suspended in culture medium and stimulated with 4μg/ml of GMZ2 vaccine antigen (Henogen S.A. Belgium) for 18h for the T cell panel using 1μg/ml of Staphylococcus Enterotoxin B (Sigma-Aldrich) as positive control, and 6h for the B cell panel using 10μg/ml CPG (Invivogen) + 50ng PMA (Thermo Fisher) + 1μg IONO (Thermo Fisher) as positive control. Unstimulated cells as negative control were incubated in culture medium alone. For the T and B cell panels, cells were cultured in the presence of anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies (BD Biosciences) and CD40L (BD Biosciences) respectively at a concentration of 1μg/ml. In order to assess Forkhead box P3 (Foxp3) expression and IL-10 production, 1μg/ml of Golgi Plug (BD Biosciences) was added two hours after PBMC stimulation. Each plate used for cell stimulation included PBMC isolated both on D0 and on D84.

Phospho-Signaling Pathway Analysis in Activated PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated on Ficoll-Paque (GE Healthcare) according to the manufacturer's instructions. PBMCs were reconstituted in a culture medium consisting of RPMI 1640 with 25 mM HEPES, L-glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) to a final concentration of 2 million cells per milliliter. After a 1-h rest at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere, the cells were stimulated on 96-well plate containing coated anti-CD3 (10 μg/ml, Exbio Praha) and free costimulatory anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies (1 μg/ml, BD Biosciences) for 5, 15, and 30 min. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 min and permeabilized with ice-cold methanol for 30 min. The following fluorochrome conjugates were used for cytometric detection: phospho-Akt (Ser473)-Alexa Fluor 488, phospho-S6 (Ser235/236)-Pacific Blue (Cell Signaling Technologies), phospho-mTOR (Ser2448)-PE (eBioscience, Thermo Fisher), CD45-Pacific Orange, CD45RA-APC (Exbio), CD8-PE-Cy7 (Beckman Coulter), CD4-PerCP-Cy5.5, and CD3-APC-H7 (BD Biosciences). The samples were acquired on Canto II flow cytometer and analyzed using FlowJo software (BD Biosciences).

PBMC Stimulation and Cytokine Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The different steps of PBMC isolation after sample collection, and of PBMC stimulation are described in detail elsewhere [26 (link)]. Briefly, after counting, cells were suspended in the culture medium and stimulated for 18 h with either the vaccine antigen (GMZ2, 4 µg/ml, Henogen S.A. Belgium) or staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB, 1 µg/ml, Sigma-Aldrich) as positive control. Unstimulated cells as negative control were incubated in culture medium alone. The culture was done in the presence of anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies (BD Biosciences). Two hours after PBMC stimulation, 1 µg/ml of Golgi Plug (BD Biosciences) was added. Each plate used for stimulation included PBMC isolated both on D0 and on D84 from the same participant. The working conditions remained stable for all samples.

For peptide pulsing coculture experiments, target cells were mixed with TCR-engineered PBMCs at a ratio of 1:2 (T:E) in the media desired by target cells and supplemented with 1 µg/mL of anti-CD28/CD49d antibodies (BD Biosciences). For cell lines expressing full-length PAP, target cells were first treated with 2 ng/mL IFNγ and 3 ng/mL TNFα for 8 h to 10 h. Target cells and PBMCs were then mixed at a ratio of 1:16 (T:E) for coculture analysis. Supernatants were collected after 48 h and analyzed by ELISA (BD Biosciences) to estimate IFNγ concentration.

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.
