Analyzing CAR-T Cell Proliferation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CAR-T cells were pre-labeled with the intracellular fluorescent label carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester. Covalently bound carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester is divided equally between daughter cells, enabling the discrimination of successive cell division rounds. After culturing labeled CAR-T cells with Raji cells at an E/T ratio of 1:2 for 24 hours, samples were analyzed by flow cytometry analysis by staining with APC labeled anti-human CD3 antibody (clone HIT3a, BioLegend). The proliferation assays and carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester-staining were performed in the continuous presence of IL-2.
FITC-labeled anti-human CD4 antibody (clone OKT4, BioLegend) and PerCP-Cyanine5.5-labeled anti-human CD8 antibody (clone SK1, BioLegend) were used to detect CD4+/CD8+ T cells by FLOW CYTOMETRY ANALYSIS.
PE/Cyanine7-labeled anti-human CD45RO antibody (UCHL1, BioLegend) and PE-labeled CD62L antibody (DREG-56, BioLegend) were used to differentiate memory and effector T cell populations; central memory T (TCM) cells were defined as cells expressing CD45RO and CD62L.
Flow cytometry analysis was conducted on a CytoFLEX Cell Analyzer (Beckman Coulter), and data were analyzed using CytoFLEX Software (Beckman Coulter).

Cells were suspended in PBS containing 2% FBS and stained with fluorescent-labeled anti-mouse surface molecule antibodies: CD4 (RM4-5)/PerCP, CD25 (PC61)/BV421, CD8 (53-6.7)/FITC, TNFR2 (TR75-89)/PE, and CD90.2 (30-H12)/PE (BioLegend, San Diego, CA). Live cells were stained by eBioscience Fixable Viability Dye eFluor 506 (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Anti-mouse CD16/CD32 (2.4G2) (BD Biosciences) was used for Fc blocking. For intracellular staining, anti-Foxp3 (FJK-16s)/APC (Thermo Fisher Scientific), anti-Foxp3 (ME-14)/BV421, anti-IL-4 (11B11)/PE, anti-Ki-67 (16A8)/PE (BioLegend), anti-IL-17(TC11-18H10)/PE (BD Biosciences), anti-phospho-IκB alpha (Ser32, Ser36) (RILYB3R)/eFluor 660 (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and anti-phospho-IKKα/β (Ser176/180) (16A6) /PE (Cell Signaling Technology) were used after fixation and permeabilization with an eBioscience Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Isotype controls matched for each antibody were used. For human molecule staining, anti-CD4 (RPA-T4)/APC (BioLegend), anti-Foxp3 (PCH101)/PE (eBioscience), and anti-TNFR2 (hTNFR-M1)/BV421 (BD Biosciences) were used. FCM was performed using a CytoFLEX cell analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA). Data were analyzed using FlowJo software (BD Biosciences).

GBM regions from Luc positive mice were acutely dissected under fluorescent microscope and enzymatically dissociated into single-cell suspensions using the Papain Dissociation system (Worthington Biochemical). The same areas from the control mice were parallelly dissociated into single-cell suspensions to set up voltage parameters and all gates. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD LSRFortessa X-20 Cell Analyzer or a Beckman Cytoflex Cell Analyzer. Cell sorting was performed on a BD FACSAria III Cell Sorter.

Flow cytometry analysis of EV preparations was performed with a CytoFLEX cell analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA) as previously described [52 (link)] with slight modifications. Briefly, 15 µL of purified EV suspensions were stained in 45 µL final volume with optimal dilutions of CD81 APC clone JS64 and CD63 PE clone CLBGran/12. Relevant isotype antibodies were used at the same dilutions to ensure specific staining of EV and to evaluate background fluorescence, which served also to set threshold triggering on the CD81 APC channel [53 (link)]. Instrument calibration was performed by running Apogee beads (Apogee Flow Systems Ltd., Hertfordshire, UK) with the same instrument settings. All antibodies were from Beckman Coulter.

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.
