Phenotypic and Functional Analysis of DCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The phenotype of DCs was assessed by flow cytometry in a BD FACS Aria (Becton Dickinson, USA) using corresponding monoclonal antibodies labeled with fluorochromes (CD3-Pacific Blue, CD14-FITC, HLA-DR-PerCP-Cy5.5, CD11c-PE, CD86-PE-Cy7, and CD83-APC; Becton Dickinson, USA) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Examples of the used gates are shown in additional files (see Additional file 2).
The criterion for functional activity of DCs was their susceptibility to receptor-mediated endocytosis by FITC-dextran capture (Sigma, USA). Briefly, the cells were incubated with FITC-dextran (1 μg/ml) in the complete medium at 4 and 37 °C. Dextran became bound to the surface receptors at 4 °C, and the bound dextran penetrated into the cells at 37 °C (endocytosis).

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.
