Generating Cytotoxic CD8+ T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CD8+ T cells were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cell preparations from leukapheresis blood cones (NHS-BT) using the EasySep Human CD8+ T Cell Isolation Kit (Stemcell, Cambridge, MA). CD8+ T cells were then cryopreserved with CryoStor CS5 (Stemcell) prior to activation. Cells were recovered and activated with two rounds of anti-CD3/CD28 stimulation as described in Nelson et al., to generate effector T cells with high cytotoxic capacity. Briefly, 25 µL anti-CD3/CD28 DynaBeads (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) per 1 × 10 6 cells were added in the presence of human IL2 at 20 ng/mL (Stemcell). The T cells were maintained at a density of 1 × 10 6 cells/mL. After 10 d, the T cells were reactivated with 25 µL anti-CD3/CD28 DynaBeads (ThermoFisher) per 1 × 10 6 cells in the presence of fresh human IL2 (20 ng/mL) prior to cryopreservation at day 13 with CryoStorCS10 (Stemcell). T cells were recovered from cyropreservation into prewarmed T cell medium and allowed to recover for 2 d before being used in assays.

FLP293T derived stable cell lines were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum (FBS). Wildtype and Crbn−/− Jurkat cells were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin in a 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells were purified from spleens from wildtype or CrbnI391V/I391V mice using the EasySep Mouse CD4+ CD25+ Regulatory T cell Isolation Kit (StemCell Technologies). T cells were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 1% non-essential amino acids, 1% sodium pyruvate, 2 mM GlutaMax, 10 mM HEPES, and 50 μM 2-mercaptoethanol, as well as 5 ng/ml recombinant murine IL-2 (Biolegend) and 20 ng/ml recombinant murine IL-4 (Biolegend). Human regulatory T cells were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells using the EasySep Human CD4+CD127lowCD25+ Regulatory T Cell Isolation Kit (StemCell Technologies) and expanded for 12–14 days in the presence of 500 U/ml human IL-2, Immunocult CD3/CD28 T cell activator (StemCell Technologies), and compound in ImmunoCult-XF T Cell Expansion Medium (StemCell Technologies). Cells were stimulated with 1X PMA/ionomycin (Biolegend) for 1h followed by the addition of brefeldin A (Biolegend) for another 3h.

U937 monocytes and Jurkat T cells were obtained from ATCC (Manassas, VA, USA). The U937 and Jurkat cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). HEK293T cells were kindly provided by Dr. H. John Sharifi (ACPHS) and were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% FBS. Primary lymphocytes were purchased from the Elutriation Core Facility at University of Nebraska Medical Center. The lymphocytes were cultured with RPMI 1640 supplemented with 5 mM glucose and 10% FBS and were differentiated into T cells with ImmunoCult Human CD3/CD28 T Cell Activator and human IL-2 as per manufacturer’s instructions (Stemcell Technologies Inc.). All cells were cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2.

Human NSCLC cell lines H1975 (CRL-5908, ATCC), H460 (HTB-177, ATCC), and PC9 (90071810, Sigma) were cultured in RPMI medium (350-007-CL, Wisent) while mouse colon cancer cell line MC38 (ENH204-FP, Kerafast) were cultured in DMEM (D5796, Sigma). All culture media were supplemented with 10% FBS (Wisent), 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Sigma), and incubated at 37 °C with 5% CO2. For the stimulation of cells with IFN-γ, cells were incubated in medium supplemented with 100 ng/mL of either human or mouse IFN-γ (Peprotech) for 48 h before the collection of cell and sEV samples.
Human CD8 T cells were isolated from human blood mononuclear cells (70025, Stemcell Technologies) using Human CD8 + T cell isolation kit (130-096-495, Miltenyi Biotec) while mice T cells were collected from the spleen of C57BL/6 mice (Jackson Laboratory) and isolated with mouse CD8 + T cell isolation kit (130-096-543, Miltenyi Biotec). Human T cells were cultured in T cell expansion medium (10981, STEMCELL Technologies) with 10 ng/mL of human IL-2 (78036.3, STEMCELL Technologies). Mouse T cells were cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 10% FBS and 10 ng/mL of mouse IL-2 (130-120-334, Miltenyi Biotec). T cells were activated with Human CD3/CD28/CD2 activation kit (10990, STEMCELL Technologies) at 25 µL/mL or Mouse CD3/CD28 beads (11456D, Thermofisher) at 25 µL/mL at every second passage.

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.
