Total isolated PBMC (2 × 105 cells, 96-well-round bottom plate; Greiner) were cultured in the presence of anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb, LEAF purified anti-human CD3, Clone HIT3a, 1 µg/ml, Biolegend), human IL-2 (Proleukin, Novartis, 0.1 µM) and sertraline (1 µM). To label (capture) the cell-surface-exposed CTLA-4, we added anti-CTLA-4 PE or a matching PE isotype control (both Biolegend) to the culture medium and incubated the cells at 37°C for 24 h. Afterwards, the cells were stained for the expression of CD4, CD25, Foxp3 and CD45RA. To determine the total CTLA-4 amount per cell, parallel samples were first fixed and permeabilized before staining for the expression of CTLA-4.

Stable cell lines were generated to evaluate in vitro binding capacity of anti-PD-1, CD80-Fc, and 4-1BBL-Fc proteins. For this purpose, total RNA was extracted from anti-CD3/CD28 activated human PBMCs, and the first-strand cDNA was synthesized by Thermo cDNA synthesis kit (Thermo Scientific, USA). Human PD-1 (hPD-1), CTLA-4 (hCTLA-4), CD28 (hCD28), and 4-1BB (h4-1BB) coding genes were amplified by PCR using specific primers and separately inserted into pCHO1.0 expression vector. As described earlier, these constructs were transfected to CHO-K1 by electroporation, and then stable cell lines were produced by puromycin/MTX strategy. The expression of these proteins on the surface of transfected CHO-K1 cells was screened by flow cytometry using anti-PD-1-PE (BioLegend™, USA), anti-CD28-PE (BD Pharmingen™, USA), anti-CTLA4-PE (BioLegend), and anti-4-1BB-PE (BioLegend™, USA) antibodies.

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.
