Macrophage csf m csf

Manufactured by BioLegend
Sourced in Germany, United States

Macrophage CSF (M-CSF) is a recombinant protein that stimulates the growth and differentiation of macrophages, a type of white blood cell that plays a crucial role in the immune response. It is a key regulator of macrophage production and function.

Buffy coats from healthy adult volunteers were kindly provided by the Center for Transfusion Medicine and Hemotherapy at the University Hospital Gießen and Marburg, and mononuclear cells were isolated by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. CD14+ monocytes were purified by adherence selection and used for subsequent differentiation at a concentration of approximately 2.5 × 106 cells per 6-well plate. For differentiation into TAMs like asc-MDM, monocytes were cultured in cell-free ascites pool derived from 5 patients for 7 days. m1-MDM and m2c-MDM were generated by culturing monocytes in RPMI1640 (Life Technologies, Darmstadt, Germany) supplemented with 5% human AB serum (Sigma), 1% sodium pyruvate (Sigma Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany), and 100 ng/ml granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (CSF) (Peprotech, Hamburg, Germany) for m1-MDM or 20 ng/ml macrophage CSF (M-CSF; Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) for m2c-MDM25 (link). After 5 days, 100 ng/ml LPS (Sigma Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany) and 20 ng/ml IFNγ (Biozol, Echingen, Germany) was added for m1-MDM and 20 ng/ml IL-10 (Biozol, Echingen, Germany) for m2c-MDM activation for 2 days.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy individuals and patients by density gradient centrifugation with Lymphoprep (#AXS-1114547; Cosmo Bio USA, CA, United States). Monocytes isolated from PBMCs were isolated with EasySep Human Monocyte Enrichment Kit (#19058; Stemcell Technologies), or by plastic adherence as previously described.19 (link) Monocytes were differentiated into Mφ by treatment with 20 ng/mL macrophage-CSF (M-CSF) (#574806; BioLegend, CA, United States) for 5-day as reported.19 (link) Mφ were further differentiated by stimulating with 100 U/mL IFN-γ (#11725-HNAS; Sino Biological; PA, United States) and 100 ng/mL LPS (#L2630; MilliporeSigma, MA, United States). Mφ were detached from plates using Accutase Cell Detachment Solution (#AT-104; Innovative Cell Technologies, CA, United States) and Cell Scraper (#3010; Corning, NY, United States). Naive CD4 T cells and total CD4 T cells were purified using the EasySep human naive CD4 T cell and human CD4 T cell isolation kits (#19555, #17952; Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada). Cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (#11875135; Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, United States) supplemented with 10% FBS (#100–106; GeminiBio, CA, United States) and were incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2.

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.
