Cd4 untouched kit

Manufactured by Miltenyi Biotec

The CD4 untouched kit is a laboratory product designed for the isolation of CD4+ T cells from a variety of sample types, including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The kit utilizes a magnetic bead-based separation method to negatively select the CD4+ T cells, leaving them in an untouched state, suitable for further analysis or downstream applications.

For analyses in FoxP3 proficient mice, splenic CD4 T cells from FoxP3-Thy1.1 hemizygous male mice were first enriched using CD4 untouched kit (Miltenyi), followed by secondary purification with anti-CD90.1 microbeads (Miltenyi) according to manufacturer’s instructions. Tconv (FoxP3-Thy1.1-Tcrb+CD4+CD45+CD19-CD8-CD11b-CD11c-) and Treg cells (FoxP3-Thy1.1+Tcrb+CD4+, CD45+CD19-CD8-CD11b-CD11c-) were sorted on a FACS-Aria to 96% and 94% purity, respectively. For experiments in FoxP3-deficient Tregs (Fig. 3), CD4+ T cells from spleen and peripheral lymph nodes from 6 week-old heterozygous females were first enriched as above by negative magnetic selection (Stem Cell), and Treg-like cells sorted as CD19-TCRβ+CD4+Thy1.1-GFP+ on a Moflo Astrios (Beckman Coulter).

Quantifying Epitope-Specific T Cell Responses

In vaccination studies, CD4+ T cells from splenocytes of OT-2 or Marilyn mice were isolated by magnetic cell separation using the CD4 untouched kit (Miltenyi Biotec). Wildtype C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneally (i.p.) injected with 4×106 OT-2 specific or 2×106 DBY-specific T-cells after in vitro expansion. Twenty-four hours later, mice were subcutaneously vaccinated with 10 µg of the indicated 30mer peptides using 50 µg Poly(I:C) or CpG with 50 µl IFA as adjuvant. Epitope-specific T cells were quantified from blood of vaccinated mice based on expression of CD4+/TCRvα2/β5+ (OT-2) or CD4+/TCRvβ6+/CD45.1+ (Marilyn). Cell numbers were quantified using flow count fluorospheres for normalization (Beckman Coulter). On day 7 after vaccination mice were euthanized and cells from spleen and lymph nodes were isolated for analysis.

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.
