MOLM13 and SEM cells were cultured in RPMI1640 (Invitrogen) with 10% FBS (Lonza). The FACS competition assay was performed to quantify the competitive binding of different CD123 antibodies to CD123 on MOLM13 and SEM cell. 6H6 (Biolegend; Catalog #306002), CD123-DARTIgG (in-house proprietary), and isotype (in-house proprietary) antibodies were labeled with AF647 using the antibody labeling kit (Thermo Fisher; Catalog # A20186). In the FACS competition assay, 2.5 μg of unlabeled antibody was first added to 5 × 105 cells and incubated at 4°C for 30 minutes, followed by the addition of 0.5 μg AF647-labeled antibody and incubation at 4°C for 60 minutes. The cells were then washed 3 times with autoMACS running buffer and resuspended in autoMACS running buffer (Miltenyi) for FACS analysis. The AF647 fluorescence was read out using MACSQuant instrument (Miltenyi). The competition assay was performed for each antibody pairs, and the %inhibition was calculated by normalizing mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) signals to the isotype/6H6 group.

HEPES/Tyrode’s buffer (20mM HEPES, 137mM NaCl, 2.7mM KCl, 1mM
MgCl2, 5.6mM Glucose, 1 mg/ml bovine serum albumin, pH 7.4). The
diluted whole blood samples were incubated in the dark for 20 minutes at room
temperature with AP1–647, AP2–488, or isotype control antibodies.
To quench the reactions, samples were diluted 10 fold with HEPES/Tyrode’s
buffer and analyzed immediately using an Accuri C6 flow cytometer (BD
Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Median fluorescence intensity of GPIbα and
GPIIb/IIIa were determined using FlowJo Ver10.0 software (FlowJo LLC, Ashland,
OR).

Immunofluorescence Staining of Lymphoid Tissues

Mediastinal lymph nodes (mLN), Peyer’s patches (PP), or inguinal lymph nodes (iLN) were snap-frozen in OTC-embedding medium (Sakura Finetek, The Netherlands). Tissue sections (7 μm) were prepared on micro-slides using a Zeiss cryostat (Carl Zeiss AG. Germany). Sections were air dried, fixed in acetone and blocked using 5% horse serum and then stained by immunofluorescence against the antigen of interest at 4 °C (Supplementary Table 1). CTA1-DD was identified by a chicken anti-CTA1-DD antibody (Agrisera, Sweden) in combination with goat anti-chicken-DyLight488 or as directly AF488-labeled CTA1-OVA-DD fusion protein (Antibody labeling kit, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA).
Confocal microscopy was performed at the Center for cellular Imaging (CCI, University of Gothenburg, Sweden) using the Zeiss LSM 510 META system and LSM software (Carl Zeiss, AG, Germany). All images within an experiment were equivalently manipulated using Zen software (Carl Zeiss AG, Germany.) to adjust brightness and contrast. For quantification of color intensity, images were imported into Fiji,80 (link) transformed into gray-scale, B-cell follicles were defined as region of interest and the mean color intensity within the region was measured.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunofluorescence experiments in LMCs were performed as described earlier, with some modification21 (link), to determine SERCA2a expression and localization on ER. Briefly, the treated LMCs were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with cooled methanol for 4 min at 4 °C. Cells were then blocked with 1% BSA with 5% goat serum for 1 h at room temperature. Cells incubated SERCA2a antibody (1:100) in blocking buffer for two hours at room temperature. After three washes, cells were incubated with Alexa Fluor 594 (goat anti-rabbit, 1:200) for 1 h at room temperature in the dark. Since SEC61, specific to ER protein antibody is also from the rabbit, we used commercially pre-labeled SEC61 antibody (ab205794, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), generated with an antibody labeling kit (A20181, Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA) and applied after SERCA2a antibody. Cell were counterstained for the nucleus and mounted using Prolong Gold antifade mounting medium with DAPI. Images were taken with Olympus BX41 fluorescence microscope using UPlanFLN X40 objective (NA = 1.3) (Olympus America, Melville, NY, USA) and SERCA2a fluorescence intensity was measured with Image J.

For steady state Class I, cells infected with shRNA lentivirus were stained with fluorochrome-conjugated Abs including anti-HLA-A,B,C (W6/32, prepared in-house), anti-H-2Kb (HB176, prepared in-house), anti-β2m (BBM.1, prepared in-house), and anti-HLA-A2 (MA2.1, prepared in-house). For SIINFEKL presentation, cells infected with shRNA lentivirus were resuspended in FBS-free acidified RPMI 1640 medium, infected with rIAV at MOI = 10 at 37°C, resuspended in cultu re medium, harvested at indicated time points, and stained with fluorochrome-conjugated Abs including anti-NA (NA2–1C1, prepared in-house), anti-M2 (M2–1C6, prepared in-house) and anti-Kb-SIINFEKL (25D1.16, prepared in-house). ES and Ub were UV inactivated before use to avoid saturation of Kb-SIINFEKL on cell surface. Fluorochrome conjugation using antibody labeling kit (ThermoFisher) was conducted following manufacturer’s instructions. Secondary staining was conducted with Alexa Fluor 647–coupled goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (Life Technologies), when necessary. Flow cytometric data were acquired using a BD LSR Fortessa X-20 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences), gated on single cells, and data were analyzed with FlowJo version 9.8.5 software (FlowJo LLC).

For intracellular or intranuclear staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using the BD Cytofix/Cytoperm (BD Biosciences) or the FoxP3 Transcription Factor (eBiosciences) kits, respectively. The anti-LCMV-NP antibody was conjugated with AF657 or AF594 (Antibody Labeling Kit, ThermoFisher).

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.
