Flow cytometric analysis

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United States

Flow cytometric analysis is a technique that utilizes a specialized instrument, known as a flow cytometer, to analyze the physical and chemical characteristics of cells or particles suspended in a fluid stream. The flow cytometer measures and analyzes multiple parameters of individual cells or particles as they pass through a laser beam, providing quantitative data on various cellular properties such as size, granularity, and the presence of specific molecules or markers.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Annexin V apoptosis detection kit (Life technologies, USA) was used for analysis of apoptosis. After indicated treatment, A549 and H1299 cells were trypsinized, collected, and resuspended. Approximately 2×105 cells were harvested and washed twice with cold phosphate buffer saline, then resuspended in 500 µL binding buffer. A total of 10 µL Annexin V-FITC and 10 µL propidium iodide were added to the solution and mixed well. After 15 minutes incubation, the cells were analyzed using flow cytometric analysis (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

After the treatment, the cells were harvested, washed with ice-cold PBS, fixed with 70% ethanol at 4 °C for 30 min, and washed with ice-cold PBS. The cells were resuspended with a PI solution (0.3 mL) containing Triton X-100 (0.1% v/v), RNase (100 mg/mL) and PI (80 mg/mL) in the dark, and were analyzed with the FACScan and CellQuest software (Becton Dickinson, Mountain View, CA, USA). The population of apoptosis that contains sub-G1 DNA content was obtained as a percentage of the total number of cells. Furthermore, the apoptosis was determined using the staining with FITC-Annexin V/PI by an apoptosis detection kit (BD Pharmingen). The experiment was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The apoptosis was detected and quantified using a flow cytometric analysis (BD Biosciences).

Flow Cytometric Analysis of EphA2 and CAR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow cytometric analysis (BD, Mountain View, CA) was used to detect the expression of EphA2 on tumor cells and to detect the expression of CAR on EphA2-positive T cells. EphA2 expression in cell lines (A549, PC9, H1650, K562) was tested using a EphA2-PE antibody (BioLegend, San Diego, CA). Cells collected from pleural effusions were stained with both EphA2-PE antibody and CD45-APC antibody (BD, San Jose, CA). Cells were collected and washed once with phosphate buffered saline(PBS) containing 2% FBS prior to the addition of antibodies, and were incubated for 20 minutes on ice in the dark, washed twice prior to analysis.

Apoptosis Analysis of Osteoblasts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After treatment as described above, osteoblasts and bone marrow-derived MSCs from each sample were stained using the Annexin V–FITC/PI kit, as described previously (Ding et al., 2012 (link); Cai et al., 2015 (link)). Then, flow cytometry was accomplished by flow cytometric analysis (BD, USA). The sample was additionally visualized under a confocal microscope (OLYMPUS FV1000, Japan). The Annexin V+/PI- osteoblasts were considered early apoptotic cells (Henry, Hollville & Martin, 2013 (link)). The Annexin V+/PI+ osteoblasts were considered late apoptotic cells (Henry, Hollville & Martin, 2013 (link)).

Immunophenotyping of GMSCs and Splenocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GMSCs were collected and suspended in cell staining buffer (0.5% BSA in PBS with 2 mM EDTA) followed by incubation with CD14 (PE), CD19 (PerCP-Cy5.5), CD29 (APC), CD34 (PE), CD44 (FITC), CD45 (PE), CD73 (PE), CD90 (FITC), and CD105 (PE) antibodies (Biolegend) in the dark at room temperature for 30 min. For intracellular staining, splenocytes from mice were first stained with CD3 (APC/Cy7), CD4 (FITC), and CD25 (APC) antibodies (Biolegend) and then fixed, permeabilized, and stained intracellularly for IL-4 (PE/Cy7) and IL-17 (PE). After staining, cells were washed twice with PBS and submitted to flow cytometric analysis (BD). Data were analyzed using the FlowJo 7.6 software.

Lipid ROS were assessed using C11-BODIPY dye (Thermo Scientific, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, cells treated as indicated were collected and incubated with DMEM containing C11-BODIPY at a final concentration of 5 µM for 20 min at 37 °C. Then, the cells were washed twice with PBS to remove residual C11-BODIPY. Then, the filtered cell suspension was subjected to flow cytometric analysis (BD Biosciences, 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.
