Assessment of NK cell function by flow cytometry was carried out as previously described(30 ). Briefly, PBMCs (n=6) and targets cells were co-cultured and stained with FITC conjugated anti-CD107a (93937, BioLegend). An hour later, Golgi Stop and Golgi Plug (BD Biosciences) was added and cells were incubated for 3 hours. Cells were stained with Live/Dead Fixable Aqua Staining Kit (Thermo Fisher), PE-CY7 conjugated anti-CD56 and PE-CF594 conjugated anti-CD3, PE conjugated anti-CD69 (310906 (FN50), BioLegend), fixed and permeabilized. Permeabilized cells were stained with BV650 conjugated IFNγ (93705 (4S.B3), BioLegend) and BV421 conjugated TNFα (562783 (Mab11), BD Biosciences).

NK Cell Degranulation and Cytokine Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were plated overnight and then co-cultured for 4 h with HL-60 at an effector/target ratio of 2:1 with the noted treatments. FITC-conjugated anti-CD107a (clone H4A3; BioLegend), used to evaluate NK cell degranulation, was added at start of the 4-hour incubation period. After 1-hour incubation, Golgi Stop and Golgi Plug (BD Biosciences) were added for the last 3 h. At the end of the 4 h, the cells were stained using the Live/Dead Fixable Aqua Staining Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific), surface stained with PE-Cy7-conjugated anti-56 (clone HCD56; BioLegend) and PE-CF594-conjugated anti-3D (clone 3G8; BioLegend), fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde, and permeabilized with intracellular staining buffer (BioLegend). The cells were stained for BV650-conjugated IFNγ (clone 4S.B3; BioLegend). NK cells were identified as CD56+/CD3-/live cells and gated into CD56 bright and CD56 dim fractions. Cells were run on LSRII (BD Biosciences) for 60 s per sample, analyzed with FlowJo software, and graphed on GraphPad Prism software.

Flow Cytometry Analysis of CAR T-Cells

Cells were resuspended in FACS staining buffer (PBS + 3% fetal bovine serum) using the following antibodies: CD3 (clone OKT3, eBiosciences), PD-1 (clone J105, eBiosciences), TIM3 (clone F38–2E2, BioLegend), Lag3 (clone 3DS223H, Invitrogen). CARs were detected using a PE or APC-conjugated CD22, CD19 or CD33 protein. All changes in overall tumor or T cell counts reflect changes in absolute cell counts, which were determined using CountBright absolute counting beads (ThermoFisher). Cell viability was established using Live/Dead Aqua fixable staining kit (ThermoFisher), and data were acquired on an LSRII Fortessa Cytometer (BD). All data analysis was performed using FlowJo 9.0 or 10 software (FlowJo, LLC). See Supplementary Figure 6 for gating strategy.

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.
