Neutrophil Adhesion Dynamics Under Shear

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To examine neutrophil adherence to endothelial cells under shear stress, mouse endothelial cells (Wang, et al., 2008 (link)) were cultured to confluency on 10ng/ml fibrinogen (Fn) coated coverslips and treated with 50 ng/ml TNFα (Peprotech) for 4 hours  at 37°C. The coverslips containing the endothelial ce ll layer were washed with PBS and placed in a flow chamber apparatus (GlycoTech). The WT and Srgap2 deficient neutrophils labeled with 1 μM CFSE (5-[and 6]-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl esters) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and 1 μM Far-Red (Thermo Fisher Scientific) respectively were mixed at 1:1 ratio, and flowed into the chamber at a shear flow rate of 1 dyn/cm2. The adherent cells were then examined and counted under a fluorescence microscope. We alternated the labeled group in the study to completely eliminate the possibility of any influence from the dye.
To examine polarization in neutrophils adhered to polylysine (PK)-coated coverslips under shear stress, neutrophils were allowed to sediment to the coverslips for 10 min in the flow chamber. The sheer stress was gradually ramped up to 2 dyn/cm2 for 10 min before being imaged by a confocal microscope.

To examine neutrophil adherence to endothelial cells under shear stress, mouse endothelial cells (50 (link)) were cultured to confluency on 10ng/ml fibrinogen (Fb) coated coverslips and treated with 50 ng/ml TNFα (Peprotech) for 4 hours  at 37°C. The coverslips containing the endothelial cell layer were washed with PBS and placed in a flow chamber apparatus (GlycoTech). The siCtr and siARF6 transfected neutrophils were labeled with 1 μM CFSE (5-[and 6]-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl esters) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and 1 μM Far-Red (Thermo Fisher Scientific) respectively, and mixed at 1:1 ratio, then flowed into the chamber at a shear flow rate of 1 dyn/cm2. The adherent cells were then examined and counted under a widefield fluorescence microscope. We alternated the labeled group in the study to eliminate the possibility of any influence from the dye.
To examine polarization in neutrophils that are adhered to endothelial cells under shear stress, neutrophils were flowed through the chamber seeded with mouse endothelial cells pretreated with TNFα at a shear flow rate of 1 dyn/cm2 and imaged by a confocal microscope.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Purified T-cell populations were obtained from lymph nodes using a magnetic bead/column system (MACS; Miltenyi Biotech). Naïve CD4-SP T-Cells were isolated by first labelling total lymph node cells with anti-B220 biotin, anti-CD11b biotin, anti-CD8 biotin, anti-CD44 biotin and anti-CD25 biotin. CD4-SP cells (unlabelled fraction) were isolated by magnetic columns after being washed and labelled with strepavidin microbeads. Purity was >90%. Tetramer-mediated cell enrichment was performed as described30 (link). For CFSE (5-(and -6)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester, Molecular Probes) labelling, cells were incubated with 5μg ml−1 of CFSE for 15 min at 37 °C. Cell division was assessed by determining the percentage of CFSElo/med cells by flow cytometry and dividing by the percentage of CFSElo/med cells obtained following stimulation with PMA and ionomycin.

The in vitro CTL assay was performed as previous described (21 (link),24 (link)). The splenocytes from immunized mice were re-stimulated with 2μg/ml of AFP212 or AFP499 peptide for indicated times in the RPMI media containing 20 units/ml of IL-2. The EL4 and EL4-AFP tumor cells were labeled with 1μM and 0.03μM of 5-(and 6)-Carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) (Invitrogen), respectively, for 10min at 37°C. After washing, equal numbers (5×104) of CFSElo-labeled target EL4-AFP cells and CFSEhi-labeled EL4 control cells were co-cultured in triplicate with the in vitro peptide-stimulated splenocytes at the indicated E/T ratios for 6 hours. The killing of target EL4-AFP cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. The specific killing activity was calculated using the formula [1-(ratio of CFSEhi/CFSElo in the absence of CTL) / (ratio of CFSEhi/CFSElo in the presence of CTL)] ×100 as previously described (21 (link)).

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.
