To analyze the surface expression of GlyRα2, neutrophils (3 × 106/ml) were stimulated with E. coli for 5 min in RPMI-1640. Then, the neutrophils were fixed with Cytofix (BD Pharmingen) for 5 min. After washing with Pharmingen Stain buffer (bovine serum albumin, BSA) (BD Pharmingen), the neutrophils were stained with Alexa Fluor 488 carboxylic acid succinimidyl ester-conjugated anti-GlyRα2 for 30 min at room temperature. Anti-GlyRα2 antibody was conjugated with Alexa Fluor 488 carboxylic acid succinimidyl ester, in accordance with the manufacturer’s protocol. Neutrophils were washed in Pharmingen Stain buffer (BSA) (BD Pharmingen) and acquired on Guava Easycyte (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA). Analysis was performed using FCS Express V3 (De Novo Software, Los Angeles, CA, USA). Alexa 488-conjugated mouse IgG1 (BD Pharmingen) was used as an isotype control. To analyze the surface expression of flavocytochrome b558, neutrophils (3 × 106/ml) were stimulated with E. coli at a ratio of 1:10 for 20 min in RPMI-1640. Then, the neutrophils were washed with Pharmingen Stain buffer (BSA) (BD Pharmingen) and stained with PE-labeled anti-flavocytochrome b558 (MBL International, Woburn, MA, USA) for 1 h, and acquired on Guava Easycyte (GE Healthcare). Analysis was performed using FCS Express V3 (De Novo Software).

Cell Phenotyping and Apoptosis Analysis

Cells from in vitro experiments were collected on ice in 10 mM EDTA in PBS and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde prior to flow cytometric analysis, while thymus cells from the in vivo dexamethasone–thymus study were used fresh without fixation. Cells were incubated with 1:100 TruStain FcX (anti-mouse CD16/32) antibody (Biolegend) in Pharmingen Stain Buffer (BSA) (BD Biosciences) for 30 minutes on ice to block non-specific binding of immunoglobulin to the Fc receptors, followed by incubation for 1 hour on ice with 1:50 Alexa Fluor 647 anti-GLUT1 (Abcam, ab195020) or FITC anti-F4/80 (Biolegend, no. 123108). Cells were rinsed twice and then resuspended in fresh buffer for analysis on a BD FACSCanto II flow cytometer using BD FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences). For detection of apoptosis, cells were rinsed twice and resuspended in annexin V Binding Buffer containing 1:20 FITC Annexin V solution (Biolegend, no. 640906). After 15 minutes, the cells were analyzed using the above-mentioned flow cytometer. Data analysis was carried out using FlowJo 10.8.1 software (BD Biosciences).

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were purified from heparinized peripheral blood by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. For indirect immunofluorescence, cells were treated with CT4 (anti-chCD4) and 3–298 (anti-chCD8a) monoclonal antibodies at 4°C for 30 min. After two washes with BD pharmingen stain buffer (BSA) (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA.), the cells were incubated with FITC or Alexa 647 conjugated goat anti-mouse antibodies at 4°C for 30 min. After two washes, cells were suspended in pharmingen stain buffer (BSA) containing propidium iodide, and cell surface CD4 and CD8a expression was determined using flow cytometric analysis.

EdU Cell Proliferation Assay Protocol

Six hundred forty-seven EdU Click Proliferation Kit (BD, San Jose, CA, USA) was used to assay the proliferation carefully following the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, cells were seeded in 96-well plates at 1000 cells per well in culture medium with 10 μM/ml EdU (n = 3 for each group). Cells were cultured for 7 days then washed with BD Pharmingen™ Stain Buffer (BSA) (BD, San Jose, CA, USA) and fixed with Fixative Solution (4% paraformaldehyde-based, component of 647 EdU Click Proliferation Kit); EdU in the cells was detected using a fluorescence microscope (Keyence, Itasca, IL, USA). EdU-positive Cell numbers were counted and calculated in same-size and random selected areas near the center of the original images of 3 experimental replicate wells using ImageJ (“analyze particles” function).

Confluent cultures of the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines (HTB44, HTB47 and CRL1933) were washed two times with PBS and the cells were detached using Accutase (BD Biosciences) and centrifuged at 2000 rpm at 4 °C for 5 min. The cell pellet was washed once and re-suspended in BD Pharmingen™ stain buffer (BSA). Cells were diluted to 1 × 106 cells/mL with the stain buffer. For every 100 µL of cell suspension, 10 µL of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) conjugated CD133 and/or phycoerythrin (PE) conjugated CD24 antibody (Miltenyi Biotec Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA) was added to the tubes. The cells were incubated for 30 min on ice in the dark and then washed two times with stain buffer and re-suspended in 1 mL of stain buffer. Cells were analyzed using SONY flow cytometer SP800S. The singlet population was gated as FSC vs. SSC, following which the selected population was graphed as PROM1 vs. CD24 plot. Four-quadrant data analysis was used to separate double positive vs. single positive cell populations. Based on the compensation measurements, the threshold for positive signal was set to ≤1 × 103 for both markers at the x and y-axis.

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.
