PBMCs were obtained by Ficoll–Hypaque density gradient centrifugation. If indicated, CD8+ or CD4+ T cells were further purified from isolated PBMCs by negative selection with magnetic beads using a CD8+ or CD4+ T cell Enrichment Kit (Cell purity >95%, Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada). The following antibodies were used for immunostaining to isolate cell subtypes: FITC-CD3, APC-cy7-CD8, APC-CD4, PE-cy7-CD14 and 7-AAD (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA). CD4+ T cells (CD3+CD4+), CD8+ T cells (CD3+CD8+), and monocytes (CD3CD14+) were selected from 7-AAD-negative live PBMCs using a FACSAria™ flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lake, NJ, USA).

Blood samples were screened for SARS-CoV-2 RNA and for antibodies against HIV, HBV and HCV. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from heparin-treated whole blood by density gradient centrifugation (Ficoll-Paque PREMIUM, Sigma-Aldrich). After separation, PBMC were stained with Live/Dead Fixable Aqua (Invitrogen; Thermo Scientific) in 100 μL final volume diluted 1:500 at room temperature RT. After 20 min incubation cells were washed with PBS and unspecific bindings were saturated with 50 μL of 20% normal rabbit serum (Life technologies) in PBS . Following 20 min incubation at 4°C cells were washed with PBS and stained with SARS-CoV-2 S-protein labeled with Strep-Tactin®XT DY-488 (iba-lifesciences cat# 2-1562-050) for 30 min at 4°C. After incubation the following staining mix was used CD19 V421 (BD cat# 562440), IgM PerCP-Cy5.5 (BD cat# 561285), CD27 PE (BD cat# 340425), IgD-A700 (BD cat# 561302), CD3 PE-Cy7 (BioLegend cat# 300420), CD14 PE-Cy7 (BioLegend cat# 301814), CD56 PE-Cy7 (BioLegend cat# 318318) and cells were incubated at 4°C for additional 30 min.

The goat anti-mouse PE conjugate was obtained from Dako (Glostrup, Denmark), the donkey anti-human PE conjugate was from Jackson ImmunoResearch (West Grove, PA, USA). The corresponding isotype controls were from BD Pharmingen (San Diego, CA, USA). Dead cells were excluded from analysis by 7-AAD (BioLegend; San Diego, CA, USA). Analysis was conducted using a FACS Canto II or FACS Fortessa (both BD Biosciences; Heidelberg, Germany). Specific fluorescence intensity (SFI) levels were calculated by dividing mean fluorescences obtained with a specific mAb by mean fluorescences obtained with the respective isotype control.

The cells from leukapheresis, the monocytes and the DC harvested at different culture time were stained with CD14 PeCy7, CD86 APC, and HLA-DR PE (all antibodies from Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA). Dead cells were excluded using the LIVE/DEAD™ Fixable Near-IR viability dye (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Briefly, cells were washed and resuspended in FACS buffer (PBS (Bichsel, Interlakeun, Switzerland), 2% FBS (Gibco by Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA), 2 mM EDTA (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA)) prior to incubation with Fc block reagent (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) for 5 min at 4 °C. The antibody mix was added before an additional 15 min incubation at 4 °C and a final cell wash in FACS buffer. Samples were acquired on a MACSQuant (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) and results were analyzed using MACSQuantify (version 2.1, Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) or FlowJo (version 10.2, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

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.
