Activated CD8+ T Cell Gene Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were activated for 5 hr with plate-bound anti-CD3 (clone OKT3; Thermo Fisher Scientific). RNA was extracted from flow-sorted naive CD8+ T cells (n = 300 per condition) using a NucleoSpin RNA XS Kit (Macherey-Nagel), and cDNA was synthesized using Reverse Transcription Master Mix (Fluidigm). Specific targets were amplified using PreAmp Master Mix (Fluidigm). Gene expression was assessed using a BioMark HD System (Fluidigm) with EvaGreen Supermix (Bio-Rad). RNA expression levels were calculated using the 2−ΔΔCT method with reference to a housekeeping gene (human 18S) (18 (link)).

T-cell Proliferation Modulation by Fatty Acids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were labeled with Cell Proliferation Dye (CPD) eFluor450 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and stimulated for 4 days with plate-bound anti-CD3 (clone OKT3; Thermo Fisher Scientific). In some experiments, cells were precultured in AIM-V medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with BSA (10% v/v; Sigma-Aldrich) for 1 day in the absence or presence of palmitic acid (PA; 300 μM; Sigma-Aldrich), and in other experiments, cells were precultured in AIM-V medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) without BSA supplementation for 2 days in the absence or presence of rosiglitazone (40 μM; Sigma-Aldrich). Proliferation was measured using flow cytometry to quantify the dilution of CPD. Sample size calculation, based on available data for T-cell proliferation (5 (link)), suggested a size of 10 individuals per group to detect a 50% difference in CPD low (i.e. proliferating) cells between middle-aged and old individuals with a power of 80% using a one-sided significance level of 5%. To assess the effect of fatty acids on resting cells, PBMCs were cultured up to 48 hr in AIM-V medium supplemented with 10% BSA in the absence or in the presence of palmitic acid (300 or 3000 μM).

Anti-CD3 Stimulation and PPAR Modulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were stimulated for 24 hr with plate-bound anti-CD3 (clone OKT3; Thermo Fisher Scientific) in the absence or presence of fenofibrate (50 μM; Sigma-Aldrich) or rosiglitazone (40 μM; Sigma-Aldrich). Activation markers were quantified on the cell surface using anti-CD69–FITC (clone L78; BD Biosciences) and anti-CD134–BV711 (clone ACT35; BD Biosciences). Intracellular stains were performed using anti-active caspase-3–PE (clone C92-605; BD Biosciences) in conjunction with a Cytofix/Cytoperm Fixation/Permeabilization Solution Kit (BD Biosciences).

B cells were isolated as described and cultured at a density of 1 × 106 cells per ml for 48 h with 1 μM CpGC, with and without inhibitors. After 48 h, B cells were washed and incubated 1:1 with autologous resting CD4+ T cells (T cells isolated using the EasySep Human CD4+ T cell Isolation Kit, STEMCELL, cat. no. 17962) for a further 72 h in culture plates coated with plate-bound anti-CD3 (clone OKT3, ThermoFisher Scientific, cat. no. 16-0037-81).

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.
