All clinical flow cytometry (FACS) was performed following good clinical practice at the Department of Clinical Immunology, Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, UK, within 4 h of phlebotomy. Operators were blinded to the aldesleukin dose allocated. A 2.6-ml sample of peripheral whole blood was collected into EDTA tubes, and 50 μl was stained with specific fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies at room temperature for 15 min to identify Tregs as CD3+CD4+CD25highCD127low T cells. The clones used were anti-CD3 (clone SK7, phycoerythrin [PE]-Cy7-labelled; BD Biosciences), anti-CD4 (clone RPA-T4, FITC-labelled; BD Biosciences), anti-CD127 (clone HIL-7R-M21, PE-labelled; BD Biosciences), anti-CD25 (clone M-A251 and 2A3, allophycocyanin [APC]-labelled; BD Biosciences), anti-CD45RA (clone HI100, APC-Cy7-labelled; BioLegend), and anti-CD62L (clone DREG-56, PerCP/Cy5.5-labelled; BioLegend). Red cells were then lysed (BD FACS Lysing Solution); the cells were washed and resuspended in BD Cell Fix and then immediately analysed on a BD FACSCanto II flow cytometer utilising FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences). In parallel, a whole-blood BD Multitest 6-Color TBNK assay using BD Trucount Tubes according to the manufacturers’ instructions (BD Biosciences) was run to determine the relative and absolute concentration of lymphocyte subpopulations, including T, B, and NK cells.

T cells (3×106) and tetramers (0.2 μg per 50 μl staining volume) were incubated for 10 min at room temperature in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA). Subsequently anti-CD3 (clone SK7, BD Biosciences) antibody was added an incubated for 10 min at room temperature. Subsequently, additional antibodies (anti-TRBV4–1, IM2287, Beckman Coulter) were added and incubated for 20 min at 4°C. Cells were washed with PBS with 1% BSA and analyzed on an LSRFortessa (BD Biosciences) flow cytometer. For display in a matrix, percentage positive cell or mean fluorescence intensity of the positive cells were normalized to Z score and a heat map was created using the heatmap.2 function of R (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gplots/index.html).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs from subject HD1 were sorted based on their binding to anti-CD3 (clone SK7, Becton Dickinson) and CD1c tetramers treated with a mixture of MAG and fatty acid. Population expansion of sorted cells was performed using anti-CD3 (clone OKT3, produced in-house), irradiated feeder cells and IL-2. After 2 weeks, the sorting and expansion procedure was repeated, and the resulting cell line was named ‘HD1’. IFN-γ ELISpot assays were performed using anti-1D1K and GB-11-biotin according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Mabtech). After an initial screen using Vβ-specific antibodies (Vβ2: IM1484; Vβ4: IM3602; Vβ5.1: IM1552; Vβ9: IM2003; Vβ13.6: IM1330 and Vβ7.1: IM2287 (Beckman Coulter), Vβ13.1 (clone H31, Ebioscience), Vβ8 (clone JR2, Biolegend), Vβ21.3 (Catalog: 1483, Immunotech), three subsets of HD1 were sorted using anti-Vβ5.1 and cultured in vitro. The TCR β-chain sequences of HD1CD4+ and HD1CD4 were determined from RNA isolated with an RNeasy Kit (Qiagen), with cDNA synthesized using a Quantitect Reverse Transcription Kit (Qiagen). V-segment usage was determined by PCR using primer set IPS000030, as described online (https://www.imgt.org/) and via a multiplex approach46 .

Quantifying Immune Cell Populations in Tissue

Sections (5 μm each) were cut and mounted on StarFrost adhesive glass slides (Knittelgläser, Braunschweig, Germany). Sealed slides were stored at −80°C until further use. LN tissue sections were stained using mouse monoclonal antibodies against T cells (anti-CD3, clone SK7; Becton Dickinson, Breda, the Netherlands), B cells (anti-CD22, clone RFB4; Millipore, Amsterdam, the Netherlands) and plasma cells (anti-CD138, clone MI15; Dako, Heverlee, Belgium).
Staining was performed using a three-step immunoperoxidase method to detect bound anti-CD138 antibodies, as described previously [17 (link)]. For anti-CD3 and anti-CD22, we used a two-step immunoperoxidase method with a secondary polymer—horseradish peroxidase—conjugated anti-mouse antibody (EnVision+ System; Dako). As a negative control, irrelevant isotype-matched immunoglobulins, instead of the primary antibody, were applied to the sections. Staining was analysed by digital image analysis in a blinded fashion using a Syndia algorithm on a Qwin-based analysis system (Leica, Cambridge, UK) as described previously [18 (link)]. The number of positive cells was calculated for each section as the number of positive cells per square millimetre of tissue.

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.
