We collected 4 mL of fasting peripheral venous blood from all HCC patients before GSM–TACE, 10 days after surgery, and 30 days after surgery using heparin anticoagulation tubes. We then added 100 μL whole blood to a dry blank tube, lysed it with 500 μL OptiLyse C Lysing Solution (Beckman Coulter Diagnostics, Brea, California, US), vortexed the solution, and incubated the lysed blood at room temperature for 15 min to assure lysis was complete. Then we added 2 mL phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and we vortexed and centrifuged the mixture at 300 g for 5 min. After centrifugation, we aspirated the supernatant, resuspended the cell pellet in 500 μL PBS, added 5 μL each of CD14, CD11b, and HLA-DR antibodies, and mixed the solution low speed for 5 s. Finally, we analyzed the samples on a flow cytometer.
2.2.2 Antibodies and laboratory equipment: To determine MDSC frequency, we performed multicolor fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis using Beckman Coulter CytExpert software version 1.1. We also used a DxFLEX Flow Cytometer (Beckman Coulter), a Labofuge 400R Centrifuge (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts, US), a LP Vortex Mixer(Thermo Fisher Waltham, Massachusetts, US), and the following anti-human monoclonal antibodies: CD11b-APC-Alexa Fluor 750, CD14-PC7, anti–HLA-DR-ECD, OptiLyse C solution, and PBS (all Beckman Coulter).

The following antibodies were used for cell surface marker evaluation: anti-CD4-PE-Cy5, anti-CD69-PE, anti-CD127-PE-Cy7, anti-CD20-PE-Cy7, anti-CD86-PE, anti-CD80-FITC (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), anti-CD25-ECD, anti-HLA-DR-ECD, and anti-CD11c-PC5 (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA). Primary human cells or Ramos cells were suspended in FACS buffer (1× PBS, 1% BSA, 0.1% NaN3) and incubated for 20 minutes with panels of the indicated antibodies at 4°C. After washing, cells were analyzed in a Navios flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA) and data was analyzed using FlowJo 7.6 software (Tree Star, Inc., Ashland, OR). Gates used for analysis were set using appropriate isotype controls.

PBMCs from H7N9 patients were stained with A2-M158 tetramer conjugated to PE (1:200) in FACS buffer (PBS with 1% bovine serum albumin). Cells were stained with antibodies: anti-CD3-PB (BD Cat #558117, UCTH1, 1:200), anti-CD8-FITC (BD Cat #347313, SK1, 1:50), anti-CD27-PE-Cy7 (eBioscience Cat #25-0279-42, O323, 1:25), anti-CD45RA-APC-Cy7 (BD Cat #560674, HI100, 1:50), anti-HLA-DR-ECD (Beckman Coulter Cat#IM3636, Immu-357, 1:25), anti-CD38-PerCPCy5.5 (Biolegend, Cat#303522, HIT2; 1:50), anti-PD-1-APC (Biolegend #329908, EH12.2H7, 1:25), and Live/Dead-aqua 525 (Invitrogen, 1:800). Lymphocytes were washed, acquired on a FACSAria II sorter with FACS Diva software (Becton Dickinson) and analyzed with FlowJo software (Treestar).

Antigen Uptake Capacity of MDDCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To analyze the capacity of MDDCs to capture different antigens we measured the uptake of Alexa 488-labelled dextran and DQ ovalbumin. MDDCs (105) were pulsed with 5 μg of Dextran-Alexa fluor 488 (Life Technologie) or DQ-Ovalbumine (Life Technologie) during 4 h at 37°C or 4°C. Cells were washed twice, stained during 15 min at 4°C with anti-HLA-DR-ECD (Beckman Coulter) and anti-CD11c-V450 (BD Biosciences) antibodies and then fixed with 2% of paraformaldehyde. Cells were analyzed with a LSR II flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson). Cells incubated at 4°C were used as negative control.

Flow Cytometry Analysis of Cell Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow cytometry was performed as previously described [26 (link),27 (link)]. Analysis of the expression levels of cell-surface markers was performed by flow cytometry. DCs were blocked for 5 min with PBS containing 10% heat inactivated human AB serum (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), and then stained by adding the antibodies to the same buffer. All other cell types were stained on PBS containing 3% FBS. Cells were labeled with anti-CD1a-PE, anti-CD3-PC7, anti-CD4-FITC, anti-CD14-PC7, anti-CD19-ECD, anti-CD25-PC7, anti-CD69-PC5, anti-CD80-FITC, anti-CD86-PC5.5, anti-CD86-PE, anti-HLA-DR-ECD, anti-HLA-DR-PB, anti-HLA-DR-PE (all from Beckman Coulter Inc., Brea, CA, USA), anti-CD8-Pacific Blue, anti-CD71-APC-Cy7, anti-CD197-APC-Cy7 (CCR7) (all from BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), anti-CD83-APC (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lake, NJ, USA), and anti-CD3-PO (Abcore, Ramona, CA, USA).
Levels of surface expression on cells were estimated by flow cytometry (Gallios; Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA) and analyzed using Kaluza software (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). Entry of FITC-labeled p24 peptide into the DCs was also estimated by flow cytometry. DCs were collected 2 h, 24 h, and 48 h after complex addition, washed with PBS, and acid washed, in order to eliminate any peptide attached to the cell surface. Fluorescence was measured by flow cytometry.

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.
