Multiparametric Flow Cytometry Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs, either isolated from the peripheral blood or harvested after a 5-day MLC, were analyzed via cell-surface staining using CD3 (SP34), CD4 (L200), CD8 (SK1), CD20 (2H7), CD25 (M-A251) (all BD Pharmingen), CD16 (NKP15, BD Biosciences), and NKG2a (Z199, Beckman Coulter) antibodies. For chimerism analyses, we used an anti–MHC class I HLA mAb (H38, One Lambda, Inc.) that reacts specifically with an MHC class I antigen on donor but not recipient cells. To assess intracellular protein expression of FOXP3, cells were permeabilized using Fixation/Permeabilization solution (eBioscience) and then stained with anti-FOXP3 mAb (PCH101, BD Pharmingen). Cells were analyzed on a FACSverse (BD Biosciences) or Accuri Flow Cytometer (BD Biosciences) using FlowJo software (FLOWJO LLC).

Patients’ and healthy control (HC) PBMCs were purified by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, washed with RPMI 1640 plus penicillin, streptomycin, and L-glutamine along with 10% FBS (R10) and filtered through a 40 µM strainer. Cells were resuspended to a concentration of 1 × 106 cells/mL and aliquoted (1 mL/well) into 48-well plates. PMA (final concentration 20 ng/mL), ionomycin (1 µM) and brefeldin A (5 µg/mL, Sigma-Aldrich) were added prior to incubation at 37°C for 5–6 hours. After incubation, cells were washed with FACS buffer and stained with LIVE/DEAD Blue (Life Technologies). Intracellular staining was performed using BD CytoFix/CytoPerm (BD Biosciences) reagents according to the manufacturer’s instructions using the following antibodies: CD3 (SK7, BD Biosciences), CD4 (RPA-T4, BD Biosciences), CD8 (SK1, BD Biosciences), CD45RO (UCHL1, Beckman Coulter), CXCR5 (RF8B2, BD Biosciences), CD25 (M-A251, BD Biosciences), IL-2 (MQ1–17H12, BioLegend), IL-4 (8D4–8, BD Biosciences), IL-5 (JES1–39D10, BD Biosciences), IL-13 (JES10-5A2, BD Biosciences), IFNγ (B27, BD Biosciences), IL-17A (eBio64DEC17, eBioscience). Cells were gated on viable CD3+ CD4+ CD45RO+ cells. Ex-vivo Treg staining was performed using anti-CD3 (UCHT1), CD4 (OKT4), CD25 (M-A251),, CD45RO (UCHL1), CD127 (HIL-7R–M21),, GATA3 (L50–823) and FOXP3 (236A/E7) antibodies as described 33 (link).

CARMIL2-expressing T cell analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We identified the T cell populations in which CARMIL2 reexpression occurred by staining PBMCs with the Abs against the following: CD3 (SK7), CD4 (SK3), CD8 (RPA-T8), CD25 (M-A251, all from BD), CD27 (O323; eBioscience), CD45RA (HI100, BD), CD56 (HCD56; Biolegend), FoxP3 (PCH101; eBioscience), and CARMIL2 (EM53; Exbio). Viability was assessed with Zombie Aqua Live/Dead stain (Biolegend). In patients with CARMIL2-expressing T cell populations, T lymphoblasts were generated by stimulating 106 PBMCs with 5 ng/ml PMA, 1 µM ionomycin, and 100 U/ml IL-2 for 2 d before further expansion for 8–16 d in complete RPMI 1640 supplemented with 100 U/ml IL-2. The T lymphoblasts were sorted with Abs against CD3 (SK7), CD4 (SK3), CD8 (RPA-T8, all from BD), and CARMIL2 (EM53; Exbio). DNA was extracted from the CARMIL2-expressing cell populations with the DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit (Qiagen), and reversion events were confirmed by Sanger sequencing.

Immunophenotyping and Cytokine Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peripheral blood (100 μL) was incubated with antibodies for 30 min at room temperature in the dark and then incubated with red blood cell lysis buffer and washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The cells were analyzed using a CytoFLEX flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The following antibodies (clones) were used for staining: CD3 (SP34-2), CD4 (L200), CD20 (2H7), CD8 (RPA-T8), and CD25 (M-A251), all from BD Bioscience (USA). All antibodies were titered in advance and used at optimal concentrations for flow cytometry. FlowJo v.10 was used to analyze the data. Measurement of cytokines and chemokines in the serum was performed using a MILLIPLEX® MAP NHP cytokine magnetic bead panel kit (Millipore Corporation, USA) and detected by a Bio-Plex 200 System (Bio-Rad Laboratories, USA).

Ammonium chloride was used to lyse erythrocytes from whole blood, as described previously [22 (link)]. Leukocytes were washed and stained using five different cocktails for flow cytometry. The following fluorochrome-labeled monoclonal antibodies were used: CD45 (2D1), CD16 (3G8), CD14 (M5E2), CD11c (B-ly6), CD56 (NCAM16.2), CD25 (M-A251), CD3 (OKT-3), CD4 (RPA-T4), CD8 (RPA-T8), TCRgamma/delta (g/d) (B1), CD45RA (HI100), CD62L (DREG-56), CD19 (HIB19), CD20 (2H7), CD27 (M-T271), lineage (LIN: CD3, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD20, CD56), HLA-DR (L243), CD123 (7G3) (all from BD Biosciences San Jose, CA), CD66b (G10F5), CD163 (GHI/61), TCR Va24-Ja18 (6B11), CD43 (10G7), CD10 (HI10a) (all from BioLegend Inc. San Diego, CA). Each staining well contained 3 million cells, and staining was done on ice for 30 minutes, followed by washing in PBS. Cells were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde and analyzed flow cytometrically (FACSCanto II or FACSAria III, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA), using FlowJo (TreeStar, Ashland, OR).

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.
