Flow-cytometry analysis was performed on 52 frozen peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) prior thawing. Egressed cells from one parotid MALT-L and PBMCs were stimulated with PMA (50 ng/mL), ionomycyn (750 ng/mL), Brefeldin-A (10 µg/mL) in RPMI complete (RPMI +10% fetal bovine serum) medium, for 3 hours. Cells were stained using Zombie Aqua Live/Dead kit (Biolegend) for 15 min, washed and incubated for 10 min with human Fc TruStain FcX (Biolegend). Cells were stained for surface antigens, fixed, permeabilised (fixation-permeabilisation buffer; eBioscience) and stained for intracellular cytokines. Antibodies used are listed in online supplementary table S2. Cells were acquired using a LSR Fortessa II (BD Biosciences) flow cytometer and analysed with FlowJo V.10 software.

Murine Blood Cell Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow-cytometry analysis was performed on mouse blood cells. Blood samples from mice were collected in 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes with 50 mM EDTA and kept on ice. Red blood cells were removed by incubating the blood samples with 2 mL ammonium chloride-potassium lysing buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific #A1049201) for 3 to 5 min at RT. Samples were centrifuged at 300 × g for 5 min at room temperature and the supernatant was discarded. This step was repeated once. The cell pellet was then gently resuspended, followed by the addition of 1 mL ice-cold DMEM media and centrifugation at 300 × g for 5 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was resuspended in 500 μL Hanks’ Balanced Salt solution. The cells were stained using Zombie Aqua Live/Dead kit (BioLegend #423101) for 15 min, washed, and incubated for 10 min with human Fc TruStain FcX (BioLegend #101320). The cells were stained for surface antigens. Antibodies used are listed in Table 1. All samples were acquired using a BD Fortessa and analyzed with FlowJo software (FlowJo, LLC).

Comprehensive NK-cell Immunophenotyping of PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow-cytometry analysis was performed on 43 frozen samples of PBMCs. After thawing, cells were stained with Zombie Aqua Live/Dead kit (BioLegend) for 15 min, washed, and incubated for 10 min with human Fc TruStain FcX (BioLegend). Cells were stained for surface antigens combined in a seven-color panel (CD14, CD3, CD20, CD56, CD16, and NK-receptor). Cells were split in up to five tubes, one for each NK-receptor (NKp46, NKp44, NKp30, NKG2D, and DNAM-1) with 1 million cells per tube. Antibodies used are listed in Supplementary Table S3. Cells were acquired using a FACS Canto II (BD Biosciences) flow cytometer and analyzed with FlowJo V.2 software.

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.
