CpG-B ODN2006 Stimulation Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were cultured at a concentration of 2.5 × 106 cells/mL in 96-multiwell plates (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA, USA) and cultured for different time points as described in figure legends. CpG-B ODN2006 (Hycult Biotech) was used at 0.35 μM concentration. Complete medium was prepared as follows: RPMI-1640 (Gibco BRL, Life Technologies), 10% FBS, 1% L-Glutammine (Gibco BRL); 1% Antibiotics/Antimicotics (Gibco BRL), 1% sodium pyruvate (Gibco BRL).

CFSE-Based Proliferation Assay for PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were loaded with Carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE, Life Technologies). Briefly, 1x106 cells/ml were resuspended in PBS (Euroclone) with 1% FBS (Gibco BRL) and loaded with 1μM CFSE for 20 min at 37°C. After washing, cells (at a concentration of 5x106 cells/ml) were stimulated with 0.35 μM of TLR9 agonist CpG-B ODN2006 (Hycult Biotech) in complete medium for 5 days at 37°C. Complete medium was prepared as follows: RPMI-1640 (Euroclone), 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hyclone Laboratories), 1% L-Glutammine (Gibco BRL); 1% Penicillin/Streptomicin 100X (Euroclone), 1% sodium pyruvate (Gibco BRL).

Measuring B-cell Proliferation via CFSE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B-cell proliferation was determined according to ref. (41 (link)). Briefly, 1×106 cells/ml splenocytes from pristane-treated mice were loaded with 1μM CFSE (Life Technologies) in PBS/1% FCS for 20min at 37°C and were blocked by washing with IMDM/20%FCS. 2x106 cells/ml were then cultured in IMDM/20%FCS under stimulation with 0.35μM CpG-B ODN2006 (Hycult Biotech) for 5 days. B-cell proliferation was evaluated by tracking dilution of CFSE within the B220+CD19+ flow-gate.

Polyclonal Stimulation of PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
As we published before [14 (link)], in order to induce antibody production from MBCs, we polyclonally stimulated PBMCs with CpG. Briefly, PBMCs were cultured in complete medium at a concentration of 1 × 106 cells/mL. Complete medium was prepared as follows: RPMI-1640 (Euroclone, Milan, Italy), 10% heat inactivated HyClone FBS (Hyclone Laboratories, Logan, UT, USA), 1mM L-Glutamine (GIBCO BRL, New York, NY, USA); 1× Penicillin/Streptomycin 100× (Euroclone, Milan, Italy), 1% sodium pyruvate (GIBCO BRL, New York, NY, USA). Cells were stimulated for 5 days with 0.35 µM TLR9 agonist CpG-B ODN2006 (Hycult Biotech, Uden, The Netherland) plus 20 ng/mL rhIL-21 (Milteny, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) and 20 ng/mL rhIL-4 (Milteny, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany).

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.
