Cd3 bv421 clone 17a2

Manufactured by BioLegend
Sourced in United States

CD3-BV421 (clone 17A2) is a fluorochrome-conjugated antibody that binds to the CD3 surface antigen. CD3 is a complex of membrane-bound proteins that is essential for the activation of T cells. This antibody can be used to identify and enumerate T cells in flow cytometry applications.

Characterizing Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes

End-point tumours (150 mm2) from VP60 and surv.VLP-SS-MUC1 treated mice were resected for tumour infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) analysis. Five tumours per group were fixed in formalin for CD3 immunohistochemistry (Histology Unit, University of Otago). Images were taken with Aperio CS2 and analysed using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health). The other five tumours per group were processed into single-cell suspensions by cutting them into small pieces using a scalpel, then sequentially passing through 100 and 70 μm cell strainers, followed by density gradient centrifugation (Ficoll-Paque PLUS density gradient media, GE Healthcare). TILs were stained with Zombie-Yellow Live/Dead Stain, treated with CD16/CD32 Fc blocking antibody, and then stained with PD-1-FITC (clone 29F.1A12, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), LAG3-PE (clone C9B7W, BD), CD127-PE/CF594 (clone SB/199, BioLegend), CD39-PE/Cy7 (clone Duha59, BioLegend), TIM3-APC (clone RMT3-23, BioLegend), CD8-AF700 (clone 53-6.7, BioLegend), CD4-APC/Cy7 (clone GK1.5, BioLegend) and CD3-BV421 (clone 17A2, BioLegend). Fluorescence was measured using a Gallios flow cytometer and analysed using Kaluza software (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA).

Multiparameter Flow Cytometry of Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For flow cytometric analyzes, recovered immune cells from processed blood and organs were first stained for surface markers using the following anti-mouse antibodies: CD3 BV421 (clone 17A2, BioLegend), CD4 FITC (clone RM4-4, eBioscience), CD8a BV605 (clone 53–6.7, BioLegend), and/or CD44 AF700 (clone IM7, BioLegend). Live/dead cell discrimination was done using LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cells were then fixed followed by staining with anti-mouse FOXP3 AF700 or APC (clone FJK-16s, eBioscience). For blood samples, 25 uL of AccuCheck Counting Beads (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were added to determine absolute cell counts. Samples were acquired on an LSR II Flow Cytometer (Becton Dickinson). Flow cytometry data were analyzed using FlowJo software (FlowJo, LLC). Lymphocytes were gated on using side vs. forward scatter plots followed by doublet and live/dead discrimination. CD8+ and CD4+ T cells were then gated on live CD3+ T cells. Regulatory T cells (Treg) and effector CD8+ T cells (CD8eff) were defined as CD4+ FOXP3+ and CD8+ CD44hi cells, respectively. Fluorescence Minus One (FMO) controls were used to guide FOXP3 and CD44 gating strategies. Absolute cell counts were calculated using the counting beads according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
