Gitr pe

Manufactured by Miltenyi Biotec

The GITR-PE is a laboratory equipment product manufactured by Miltenyi Biotec. It is used for the detection and analysis of GITR (Glucocorticoid-Induced TNFR-Related Protein) expression in various cell types. The GITR-PE utilizes a phycoerythrin (PE) conjugated antibody to identify and quantify GITR-positive cells through flow cytometry or other analytical techniques.

Flow cytometry and basal pStat5 experiments were performed according to previously published methods [17 (link), 41 (link)]. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) used were CD3-APCa750, CD4-ECD, CD8-APCa700, CD16-FITC, CD19-ECD, CD45RO-FITC, CD56-PCy7 and CD152-PE from Beckman Coulter; CD25-PE, CD45RA-APC and CD45RA-PCy7 from BD Biosciences; CD127-FITC from eBioscience; CD25-APC and LAP-PE from R&D Systems and GITR-PE from Miltenyi.
For pSTAT5 activation experiments, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were cultured (500,000/well) for 30 min at 37° C and IL-2 was added for 15 min. Cells were then fixed with 1.6% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 100% methanol, stained for pSTAT5 and appropriate surface markers. Events were collected using a LSRFortessa flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) and data were analyzed using Diva software (BD Biosciences). To calculate EC50, after subtracting the value from the media control, binding data for each sample was normalized to 100% based on the maximal response and non-linear regression of these data was performed assuming a variable slope using Graph-Pad Prism 6.0.

Immunosuppressive Activity of MSCs

3 × 104 WT or TNFR2 KO-MSCs were co-cultured in 12-well plates with 1.5 × 105 (1/5 ratio) of mice WT-CD3+CD25T cells in a total volume of 2 ml. We used this intermediate fixed ratio since we observed 50% immunosuppressive activity by MSCs. WT-CD3+CD25T cells were stimulated by Dynabeads Mouse T-Activator CD3/CD28 (Gibco). 2 × 105 freshly isolated WT-CD3+CD25T cells were used as control T cells alone. After 3 days, WT-CD3+CD25T cells were harvested and immunostained with CD4-VIOBLUE and CD8α-PeCy5 or CD8α-FITC, ICOS-PeCy7, GITR-PE, CD25-PeCy7 or PE, and TNFR2-APC (Miltenyi). Intracellular Foxp3 staining was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, using the Foxp3 staining buffer set kit (eBioscience).

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.
