Celltrace cfse proliferation kit

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The CellTrace CFSE Proliferation Kit is a fluorescent cell staining solution used for tracking cell division and proliferation in vitro. The kit contains the CFSE (Carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester) dye, which covalently binds to intracellular proteins, allowing the labeling and monitoring of cell division through flow cytometry or microscopy.

HD T cells were stained using the CellTrace CFSE Proliferation Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, C34554) according to the manufacturer's instructions. For stimulation, CD3/CD28 Dynabeads (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 11131D) at a bead-to-cell ratio of 1:2 and 30 U/mL interleukin-2 (IL-2; R&D Systems, 202-IL-010/CF) were added to the culture for 5 days. T cell subsets were discriminated by the expression of the chemokine receptor CCR7 in combination with the naïve cell marker CD45Ra (Supplementary Figure 2). NK cells were stimulated by addition of 500 U/mL IL-2 for 10 days. Fold change was calculated as: “Viable NK cell count day 10”/“Viable NK cell count day 0.”

On the day of the experiment, BFP-sorted cells were stained with a green CellTrace™CFSE proliferation kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) following the manufacturer's instructions and rested in standard culture conditions, for at least 2 h, before starting the experiment. Cells were pre-washed with and kept in HBSS supplemented with 1% (v/v) FCS, 1 mM l-glutamine, 1% (v/v) non-essential amino acids (NEAA), 10 mM N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N′-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 0.55% (w/v) d-glucose while imaging. GUVs were added to the CAR T cell samples and imaged at 37 °C using an incubator stage (Okolab) mounted onto a confocal laser scanning microscope (Nikon Eclipse Ti-E inverted microscope equipped with Nikon A1R confocal laser scanning system, 60 × oil immersion objective, NA = 1.49, with three lasers: 488 nm, 561 nm, and 640 nm). Image acquisition and processing were performed using the NIS-Elements software (version 4.5, Nikon). The assembly of the videos (Online Resource 1–2) was done with Fiji Image J 2.1.0 software.

SS- and PROD-produced UTD-NK cells as well as SS-/PROD-produced CAR-NK cells were co-incubated for four hours with OCI-AML2 cells at an effector-to-target (E:T) ratio of 1:5. OCI-AML2 cells were previously labeled using Cell Trace CFSE proliferation kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Subsequently, cells were stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (AppliChem, Darmstadt, Germany) and the viability of target cells was analyzed using a BD FACSCelestaTM device (BD Biosciences).

To assess proliferation, sorted T cells, labeled with CellTrace CFSE proliferation kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA), were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28-coated Dynabeads (Thermo Fisher) at 1:1 ratio and cultured on a monolayer of MSCs, as described above, for 72 h. T cells, harvested and surface stained for CD4 surface marker, were acquired using an LSR II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). The proliferation index was calculated as total number of divisions divided by the number of cells that underwent division using FlowJo software (BD Biosciences).

T cell proliferation and IFNγ secretion assays were performed following co-culture of CFSE labeled allogeneic naïve CD4+ T cells with sCD40L-exposed DCs +/- stimulated with Poly-ICLC as described above. Naïve CD4+ T cells were purified by magnetic cell sorting (EasySep™ Human Naïve CD4+ T cell Enrichment Kit, Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Ca) from uninfected donor PBMCs and stained with 10 μM carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester dye (CellTrace™ CFSE Proliferation Kit, Life Technologies, NY, USA) for 10 minutes prior to incubation with DCs at a ratio of 1:20 (DC/Tcell). After 5-6 days, CFSE dilution was analyzed by FACS and culture supernatants were assayed for IFNγ using the Human Th1/Th2/Th17 Cytokine Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) (BD Pharmingen). Regulatory T cell phenotype was analyzed after co-culturing allogeneic naïve CD4+ T cells with sCD40L-exposed DCs at a ratio of 1:10 for 7 days. Cells were stained with CD4 (BD biosciences), FoxP3 (eBioscience), and CD127 (Biolegend) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Spleens from unimmunized TRP2 TCR transgenic mice were collected and dissociated as described above to obtain a single-cell suspension. The cells were treated with erythrocyte lysis buffer (water, 0.15 M NH 4 Cl, 1 mM KHCO 3 , 0.1 mM EDTA; 1 mL per spleen) at room temperature (RT) for 3 min and washed with ice-cold PBS. If the cell pellet was red after centrifugation, the lysis step was repeated. If tracing of the transferred cells was required, cells were labeled with CFSE (CellTrace CFSE Proliferation Kit, Life Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer's instructions. A sample of the splenocytes was stained with the H-2K b -TRP2 180-188 tetramer and antibodies against surface markers as described above to determine the frequency of TRP2-specific CD8 + T cells. Total cell number was counted using a hemocytometer and the splenocytes were administered intravenously at 5 Â 10 5 TRP2-specific CD8 + T cells per recipient.

The proliferation of HUVECs was analysed using the CellTrace CFSE Proliferation Kit according to the manufacturer`s instructions (LifeTechnologies). Briefly, following staining of cells with the dye carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) and rinsing of non-bound dye, 1 x 105 stained cells were seeded into each well of a 6 well plate. Following an overnight incubation and replacement of culture medium with fresh medium, cells were treated with the cigarette smoke- or e-cigarette vapour-extracts as indicated. After treatment periods of 24 hours (data not shown) and 48 hours, cells were washed, trypsinized, and subjected to CFSE quantification on a FACS Calibur by determination of mean fluorescence intensities of the viable cells. Mean fluorescence intensity of controls was set at 100% and the different incubations were calculated in relation to the corresponding control.

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.
