Cellular Uptake of FITC-labeled BN-17

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RAW 264.7 cells (0.05 × 106/0.5 mL/well) and THP-1, MC38, and HT-29 cells (0.1 × 106/0.5 mL/well) were seeded in 48-well plates (Corning Costar, Corning, NY, USA). The next day, FITC-labeled BN-17 at concentrations of 1, 50, and 100 µg/mL was added. After 4 and 24 h of incubation with the compound, the cells were collected and suspended in PBS supplemented with 2.5% FBS (Biowest, Nuaillé, France). The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) as well as changes in the size and granularity of cells were analyzed based on forward scatter (FSC) versus side scatter (SSC) using a FACS Fortessa instrument with Diva software version 8.0 (Becton Dickinson). DAPI dye (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) was added to each tube to eliminate dead cells. Histograms and density dot plots were prepared using NovoExpress 1.3.0 software (Agilent Technologies, Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA).

Isolation and Characterization of Bone Marrow Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mononuclear cells of bone marrow aspirates were thawed and then resuspended in RPMI medium containing DNAse I (Roche), followed by a wash with cold 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA, Sigma) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Cells were then stained with the following antibodies (Supplementary Table 2): CD34, CD45, GD2 (kindly provided by Prof. Handgretinger, University of Tübingen), and L1CAM (CD171) in PBS/BSA 0.1% for 10 min at 4 °C. Finally, cells were stained with DAPI (Sigma) for 5 min at 4 °C and were passed through a 70 µm cell strainer into FACS tubes in PBS/BSA 0.1%. Acquisition and sorting of live cells were performed with FACSAria and the DIVA Software version 8.0 (Becton Dickinson). Sorted single cells were split into halves and were taken forward for scATAC-seq and scRNA-seq processing.

Unbiased TCR Profiling of EBV-Specific CD4+ T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Viable EBV-specific tetramer+ CD4+ T cell populations were sorted at >98% purity directly into RNAlater (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using a custom-modified FACSAria II flow cytometer equipped with DIVA software version 8.0.1 (BD Biosciences). Unbiased amplification of all expressed TRB gene rearrangements was conducted using a template-switch–anchored RT-PCR with a 3′ C region primer (31 ). Amplicons were subcloned, sampled, sequenced, and analyzed as described previously (32 (link)). Gene use was assigned using the International ImMunoGeneTics nomenclature (33 (link)). All functional TCR sequences were deposited online at VDJdb (34 (link)). Expression of defined TCR Vβ segments on the surface of EBV-specific CD4+ T cells was assessed using a TCR Vβ Repertoire Kit (Beckman Coulter).

Comprehensive Leukocyte Immunophenotyping

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Using reverse pipetting, 100 μl of whole blood collected on EDTA-coated tubes were incubated with anti-CD32 to prevent FC-mediated non-specific binding according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The panel of antibodies as well as the gating strategy were inspired by Barnett-Vanes and al. [20 (link)] and detailed in the S1 Table. Briefly, a panel of 11 antibodies was used to identify the neutrophils (CD45+/ SSChi / His48+), the monocytes (CD45+/ SSClo/ His48hi or lo/CD43hi or lo), the B lymphocytes (CD45+/ SSClo /CD45R-B220+), the T lymphocytes (CD45+/ SSClo / CD3+/CD4+ or CD8+), and the natural killer cells (CD45+/SSClo /CD161a+). The whole blood samples were incubated with the antibodies for 20 minutes at room temperature and the BD Pharm Lyse solution was then added for 10 minutes to lyse the erythrocytes. Samples were stored at 4°C until analysis by flow cytometry (LSRII BD Biosciences). Accucount (Spherotech) were added to establish a cell count per μl of blood. Data were analyzed on Diva software version 8.0.1 (BD Biosciences).

Quantification of Immune Cell Populations

Whole blood samples collected on EDTA-coated tubes were incubated or not with LPS (500 ng/mL) for 30 minutes at 37°C. The samples were then stained using mouse anti-rat CD45 Alexa Fluor 700 (clone OX-1, conjugated to Alexa Fluor 700, Biolegend), mouse anti-rat CD11b antibody (clone WT.5, conjugated to V450, BD Horizon), and 7AAD (Biolegend) for 30 minutes at 4°C. FACS lysing solution (BD Pharm Lyse, BD Biosciences) was added for 15 minutes at room temperature and samples were stored at 4°C until analysis by flow cytometry (LSRII, BD Biosciences). Data were analyzed on Diva software version 8.0.1 (BD Biosciences).

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.
