Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
5’-bromo-2’-deoxyuridine (BrdU) detection of proliferation was performed as previously described (6 (link)). Briefly, mice were administered 0.8 mg of BrdU by i.p. injection, and maintained on BrdU in drinking water (0.8 mg/mL, plus 10% dextrose), ad libitum, from days 4-8 post-infection. Peritoneal cavity wash cells were stained for surface markers, and fixed using a BD Cytofix/Cytoperm solution, for 30 minutes at 4°C. Prior to pelleting the cells, BD Perm/Wash solution was added. Cells were then resuspended in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in BD Perm/Wash solution and incubated for 10 minutes at 4°C. Cells were then fixed again with BD Cytofix/Cytoperm solution for 5 minutes at 4°C. DNase I in 1x Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) was then incubated on the cells for 1 hour at 37°C. The cells were then stained with FITC-conjugated anti-BrdU (Bu20a) diluted in BD Perm/Wash solution for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were then washed and analyzed as below.

Intracellular TNF-α expression was analyzed using a Fixation and Permeabilization Solution Kit with BD GolgiPlugTM (BD Bioscience). Briefly, THP1 monocytes (1 × 105 cells/ml) or macrophage-like cells (about 2.0 × 105 cells/ml) were exposed to X-rays. At 24 h after X-irradiation, LPS (1 μg/ml) or FSL-1 (50 ng/ml) was added to cultures, and the cells were cultured for an additional 8 h. GolgiPlug, which inhibits protein transporters, was added to the culture medium after 2 h of an 8-h culture. Cells were harvested and fixed using Cytofix/CytopermTM solution (BD Bioscience) for 15 min on ice. After washing twice in Perm/WashTM solution (BD Bioscience), cells were suspended in Perm/WashTM solution and were stained with anti-human TNF-α-FITC mAbs or isotype control at room temperature in the dark.

All cells were first stained for viability using Fixable Viability Dye eFluor™ 780 (1:1000) (eBioscience). For cell surface staining, cells were incubated in FACS buffer (PBS containing 0.5% bovine serum albumin [BSA; Sigma‐Aldrich] and 0.1% NaN3) containing antibodies for 10 min at 4°C. Then, cells were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde (PFA; Electron Microscopy Sciences) for 5 min at 4°C. For intracellular staining, the fixation step was followed by a permeabilization step in Perm/Wash solution (BD Biosciences) for 5 min at 4°C, and an intracellular staining step with antibodies diluted in Perm/Wash solution for 10 min at 4°C. The antibody clones and manufacturers used are listed in Table S1. Single‐cell measurements were performed on a FACS Canto flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) and FlowJo V10 software (TreeStar) was used to analyze the data. For each flow cytometry experiment, viable single cells were gated, after which Jurkat cells were selected on CD45 expression, and PBLs were selected on CD8 or CD4 expression. For transduction experiments, the Jurkat cells were gated on FLAG, and PBLs on Ly6G or CD90.2 (or both) and then on CD4. Exceptionally, the Ly6G+ Lck‐KD, and Ly6G+CD90.2+ Lck/Fyn‐KD PBLs were not gated on CD4, but the total T cells were assessed.

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.
