Quantification of Monocyte HLA-DR Expression

Expression of human leucocyte antigen-antigen D-related (HLA-DR) on CD14+ monocytes was measured by flow cytometry according to the manufacturer’s recommendations (Quantibrite HLA-DR/Monocyte antibody cocktail, BD Bioscience, Heidelberg, Germany). Briefly, 50 μL of EDTA-anticoagulated whole blood was incubated with 20 μl of the antibody cocktail and incubated for 30 min. Afterwards, erythrocyte lysis was performed by adding 450 μl FACS Lysing solution (BD Bioscience, Heidelberg, Germany) and further incubation for 15 minutes. Measurement was immediately done on a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Bioscience). In addition, a 4-point calibration curve (Quantibrite PE Beads, BD Bioscience) was also measured daily to enable the transformation of the measured sample values to molecules of HLA-DR.

Standardized Measurement of mHLA-DR and T Cell Subsets

At each time point, samples were collected using EDTA tubes. All blood samples were stained within 1 h after collection or were immediately stored at 4 °C, in accordance with the standardization recommendations for mHLA-DR measurement [18 (link), 19 (link)]. For mHLA-DR measurement, staining and cell acquisition by flow cytometry (FC500, Beckman Coulter, Hialeah, FL, USA) were performed as described in the European standardized protocol and according to the manufacturer’s recommendations (Quantibrite HLA-DR/Monocyte antibody cocktail, BD Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA). Results were expressed as the number of anti-HLA-DR antibodies per cell (AB/C) (normal >15,000), which is correlated with the number of HLA-DR molecules expressed on each monocyte. CD4+ T cells were measured by flow cytometry based on expression of CD4; Treg cells were identified based on expression of CD4, CD25, and CD127, and results were expressed as the total number of Treg cells and as the proportion of the total number of CD4+ T cells.

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.
