For adoptive transfer of OT-1 T cells into B6 mice, OT-1 splenocytes were harvested as described above. CD8 T cells were isolated using immunomagnetic negative selection (StemCell, Vancouver, Canada; 19853), rinsed and suspended in PBS, and 2 × 106 cells were adoptively transferred into 6–10 wk old, female, B6 mice via intraperitoneal injection. The day following transfer, mice were immunized subcutaneously with an individual SIINFEKL APL (100 µg) in complete Freund’s adjuvant (Sigma, F5881) or vehicle. Mice were euthanized at the times indicated, spleens were collected, processed as described above, and analyzed via flow cytometry using the following antibodies: SIINFEKL H2Kb tetramer-BV421 (NIH Tetramer Core Facility), CD3-FITC (BD 555274), CD4-BUV395 (BD 563790), CD8-BUV805 (BD 564920), LAG3-BV711 (BD 563179), PD1-PECF594 (BD 562523), TIM3-APC (eBioscience 17-5871-82), 41BB-PerCPeF710 (eBioscience 46-1371-82), CTLA4-PE (eBioscience 12-1529-42), CD44-BV786 (BD 563736) and Live/Dead Ghost dye 780 (Tonbo 13-0865-T100) or corresponding fluorescently labeled IgG controls.
Data collected on different days was normalized using rainbow beads (Spherotech, Lake Forest, IL; RFP-30-5A).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary cells from peripheral blood of AML patients with hyperleukocytosis were obtained by leukapheresis before therapy initiation. The leukapheretic products were diluted 10-fold in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and the mononuclear cell fraction was separated using Histopaque-1077 (Sigma, #H8889). The cells were resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium with 10% fetal calf serum and with antibiotics (100 U/ml penicillin, 100 µg/ml streptomycin), and aliquots were used for analysis of surface markers by flow cytometry and for mRNA isolation.
The antibodies used were as follows: CD45-V450 (#560367), CD4-BUV395 (#564724), CD8-BUV395 (#563795), CD19-BUV737 (#564303), CD34-BV786 (#743534), and CD371-BB515 (#565926) from BD Biosciences; HLA-DR-FITC (#11-9952-42), TIM-3-APC (#17-3109-42), and PD-L2-APC (#17-5888-42) from eBioscience; CLIP-PE (sc-12725 PE) from Santa Cruz; PD-L1-PE (#1P-177-T100), CD47-FITC (#1F-225-T100), and CD38-PE (#1P-366-T100) from Exbio (Prague, Czech Republic). HLA class I antibody (Abcam, ab2217) was conjugated in house using the Lightning-Link Fluorescein Conjugation kit (#707-0010, Innova Biosciences).

Splenocytes were cultured at 2 × 106/mL in RPMI 1640 + l-glutamine, 10% FCS, penicillin/streptomycin (200 U/mL), 1% NaPyr, 1% HEPES, 50 µM β-MeOH, and the designated peptide (2 µg/mL). At the time points indicated, cells were stained with the following antibodies: CD3-FITC (BD 555274), CD4-BUV395 (BD 563790), CD8-BUV805 (BD 564920), LAG3-BV711 (BD 563179), PD1-PECF594 (BD 562523), TIM3-APC (eBioscience 17-5871-82), 41BB-PerCPeF710 (eBioscience 46-1371-82), CTLA4-PE (eBioscience 12-1529-42), Live/Dead Ghost dye 780 (Tonbo 13-0865-T100), or corresponding fluorescently labeled IgG controls. Cells were then fixed for 15 min at 4°C in cytofix (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA; 554655), and frozen in FCS + 10% DMSO. After all time points were collected, cells from all times were thawed, rinsed and resuspended in PBS + 3% FCS + 1 mM EDTA and analyzed by flow cytometry. All antibodies used were at 1:100 dilutions and stained for 30 min at 4°C in a 1:4 dilution of brilliant stain buffer (BD 563794) in PBS + 3% FCS + 1 mM EDTA.

B cells or dendritic cells (DCs) were enriched from splenocytes of OT-1 or B6 mice inoculated with Flt3 ligand-expressing B16 tumor cells25 (link) using PE-labeled antibodies specific for either CD19 or CD11c (StemCell, Seattle, WA, Cat.# 17,684) as previously described.26 (link) Similarly, CD8 + T cells were isolated using a negative selection CD8 + T-cell isolation kit (StemCell, Cat. # 19,853). After enrichment, each APC subset, and a subset of purified T cells, were cultured as described above with 2 µg/mL SIINFELK or the HLA-A2 sequence from SSX2 (RLQGISPKI) as a nonspecific control peptide. Naïve OT-1 T cells were added to each cell type at a 1:1 ratio and incubated for three days, after which cells were stained and analyzed by flow cytometry with the following panel: CD3-FITC (BD 555,274), CD4-BUV395 (BD 563,790), CD8-BUV805 (BD 564,920), LAG-3-BV711 (BD 563,179), PD1-PECF594 (BD 562,523), TIM3–APC (eBioscience 17-5871-82), CTLA4–PECy7 (Tonbo 60-1522-U100), 41BB–PerCPeF710 (eBioscience 46–1371–82), and Live/Dead Ghost dye 780 (Tonbo, San Diego, CA 13–0865–T100).

For analysis of in vivo experiments, cells were stained with antibodies against human CD45 APC (Invitrogen), CD4 ECD (Beckman Coulter), CD3 Pacific Blue (eBioscience) CD8 PE and CD25 PE-Cy7 (BD) and the viability dye 7-AAD (eBioscience). To analyse expression of Treg-associated markers, freshly sorted or expanded Tregs were stimulated for 15h with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 beads at a ratio of 1 bead to 5 cells, or left untreated. Cells were stained with 7-AAD and antibodies against GITR FITC (R&D Systems), CTLA-4 PE, CD69 APC-Cy7, CD25 PE-Cy7 (BD), TIGIT PE, OX-40 FITC, TIM-3 APC, CD39 PE, FOXP3 eFluor 450, Perforin APC (eBioscience) Helios AlexaFluor 647 (Biolegend), and CD4 ECD (Beckman Coulter). For intracellular antigens (FOXP3, Helios, Perforin, CTLA-4), cells were fixed and permeabilized using a Foxp3 Staining Buffer Set (eBioscience). Samples were acquired using a BD FACSCanto (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences). For staining for BCL-XL and MCL1, Abcam anti-BCL-XL FITC (7B2.5; ab26148) and anti-MCL-1 Alexa Fluor 488 (Y37, ab197529) antibodies were used, respectively, following manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeablized with PBS/0.1% Tween. The cells were then blocked with 10% normal goat serum/0.3 M glycine, followed by incubation with the antibody.

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.
