Multicolor flow cytometry was carried out on fresh Ficoll-prepared (TBD Sciences, Tianjing, China) PBMCs. After suspension in PBS, PBMCs (100 μL) were separately added to two tubes (1 × 106–2 × 106 PBMCs per sample). The first tube was incubated with FITC-Lineage (CD2, CD3, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD235a, and CD56), APC-HLA-DR, PE-Cy7-CD11c, and Percp-Cy5.5-CD123 mAbs (all eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA). The PBMCs defined as LineageHLA-DR+CD123brightCD11c were pDCs. The other tube was used to identify CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Tregs and analyze their ICOS expression. Briefly, after CD4-FITC (BD Pharmingen, San Diego, CA, USA), CD25-PE-Cy5 (BD Pharmingen) and ICOS-PE-Cy7 (eBioscience) surface staining, PBMCs were washed and fixed with fixation/permeabilization solution (eBioscience), then incubated with anti-Foxp3-PE mAbs (eBioscience). After washing, stained cells were analyzed on a flow cytometer (LSR-II; BD Biosciences) using BD FACSDiva Software. Lymphocytes (1–3 × 104) were gated to analyze the Tregs. Considering the small proportion of pDCs, 100 000–200 000 events in the lymphocytes and monocytes were accumulated as the acquisition gates. The appropriate isotype was used.

Human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples were thawed and stained with a fixable Aqua viability dye (Invitrogen) and a cocktail of cell surface antibodies. For measurement of T cell activation/exhaustion status, fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis was performed using the following cell surface markers: CD8-Qdot605 (Invitrogen, 3B5), CD4-Qdot 655 (Invitrogen, S3.5), PD-1-PE (BD, MIH4), LAG-3-FITC (Enzo, 17B4), ICOS-PE-Cy7 (eBioscience, ISA-3), and TIM-3-APC (R&D Systems, 344823). For multiplex cytokine measurements, validated V-PLEX Proinflammatory Panel 10-plex (human) kits (for IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, IFNγ, TNFα, IL-1β, and IL-13) were used (MSD, Cat #K15049D-1). See Supplementary Materials and Methods for all FACS and cytokine assay details.

Isolation and Analysis of Skin Lymphocytes and DCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Isolation and analysis of skin lymphocytes [18 (link), 27 (link)] were carried out as described. Briefly, after removing fur with an electric groomer, trunk skin was separated from subcutaneous fat tissue, cut to small pieces and, for lymphocyte analysis, digested for 45 min. at 37°C in RPMI 1640 containing collagenase XI (4000 U/ml), hyaluronidase (260 U/ml) and DNase (0.1mg/ml), all from Sigma-Aldrich. Cells were harvested by filtration, washed and stained, first for surface markers with mAbs CD45.2-PerCP, CD3-APC-eFluor780, CD4-FITC, CD25-PE, CTLA4-APC, ICOS-PE-Cy7, and live/dead-eFluor506, then fixed and permeabilized and stained with FoxP3-eFluor450, all from eBioscience. For DC analysis, digestion was with 150μg/ml Liberase and 120μg/ml in HBSS and cells were stained with mAbs CD11c-PerCPCy5.5 and CD103-PE (both BioLegend) and, after fixation and permeabilization, with anti-langerin-Alexa488 (clone 929F3.01, Dendritics).

PBMCs were separated by a gradient centrifugation procedure on a lymphocyte separation medium (Secoll Separation Media, Mannheim, Germany). After separation, freshly isolated cells were stained with the following fluorophore-conjugated antibodies: CD4 APC-Cy7 (clone: RFT-4g), ICOS PE-Cy7 (clone: ISA-3, eBioscience, ThermoFisher), CXCR5 FITC (CD185, clone: REA303), CXCR3 APC (CD183, clone: REA232), PD-1 PE-Vio 770 (clone: PD-1.3.1.3, Miltenyi Biotec), CD45RA PE-Cy5 (clone: HI100, BioLegend), and CCR6 PE (CD196, clone: 11A9, BD Bioscience).
The freshly isolated thymocytes and the PBMCs obtained at the time of thymectomy were stained with the following fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies: CD4 FITC (clone: RPA-T4, Beckman Coulter), CD8 APC (clone: RPA-T8), CXCR3 eFluor660 (CD183, clone: CEW33D, eBioscience), CCR6 PE (CD196, clone: 11A9), PD-1 PE (CD279, clone: MIH4, BD Bioscience), ICOS PE (clone: C398.4A, BioLegend), and CXCR5 PE (CD185, clone: 51505, R&D Systems). The samples were analyzed on an Attune Flow Cytometry (Thermofisher, USA). Fluorescence minus one control, which contains all flurochromes in a panel except for the target markers measured, was used to identify and to gate the cells.

Expression of markers associated with Treg phenotype was evaluated by flow cytometry. Briefly, PBMCs were first stained with antihuman CD4-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and CD25-phycoerythrin (PE) (eBioscience, San Diego, CA). As a next step, intracellular staining for FOXP3 detection was performed using antihuman FOXP3-allophycocyanin (APC; PCH101FOXP3) commercial kit according to manufacturer’s instructions (eBioscience). Additional markers were analyzed, including CD3-FITC, CD8-PE-CY7, CD69-PE, CD95-FITC, GITR-PE, ICOS-PE-CY7, PD-1-FITC, CD55-APC, CD58-APC, CD59-APC (purchased from eBioscience, Biolegnd or TONBO).

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.
