The total number of WBCs, neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, and
monocytes were recorded by standard procedures using the ABX Pentra DX 120
(Horiba, United Kingdom/Germany). Furthermore, T-cell (CD3), T-helper cells
(CD4), T-cytotoxic cells (CD8), B-lymphocytes (CD19), NK (CD16/56) cells and
CD4+ recent thymic emigrants (CD4-RTE) absolute counts were performed by a
single-platform no-lyse-no-wash procedure. Fifty μl EDTA anti-coagulated
peripheral blood were incubated in TRUCount tubes (BD Biosciences, Denmark) with
a panel of conjugated monoclonal antibodies. The following combinations of
antibodies were used to characterize T cells as CD4 T cells (CD3-PerCP (clone
SK7), CD4-FITC (clone SK3), CD8 T cells (CD3-PerCP (clone SK7), CD8-PE (clone
SK1)) and CD4-RTE (recent thymic immigrant) cells as (CD3-ECD (clone UCHT1),
CD4-PC7 (clone SFCT12T4D11), CD31-PE (clone WM59), CD45RA-FITC (clone L48), and
CD45RO-PC5 (clone UCHL1), NK cells as (CD45-PerCP (clone 2D1), CD16/56-PE (clone

Similar to previous literature reports [23 (link)], the flow cytometry antibodies used in the following tests were purchased from BD Biosciences. BMMC was incubated with phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and Ionomycin (Sigma, USA) for 4 h at 37 °C. The cells were incubated with flow cytometry antibodies against CD3-PerCP and CD8-APC (Becton Dickinson) for 15 min in dark.

After the cells were washed with cold PBS, an appropriate amount of 50ul PBS was added, flow cytometry was performed in FACS Calibur, and the results were analyzed by CellQuest software. Cell subsets are defined as follows: Th1 (CD8-INF-γ+), Th2 (CD8- IL-4+), Tc1 (CD8+ INF-γ+), and Tc2 (CD8+ IL-4+).

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.
