NK cell killing assays were performed on the XCelligence SP platform (ACEA BioSciences). 96-well E-plates (ACEA BioSciences) were coated with collagen (Sigma-Aldrich) and 4 × 105 WT, B2m−/−Ciita−/−, or B2m−/−Ciita−/− Cd47 tg miECs or WT, B2M−/−CIITA−/− or B2M−/−CIITA−/− CD47 tg hiECs were plated in 100 μl cell-specific media containing 1 ng ml−1 mouse or human IL-2 (Peprotech). After the Cell Index value reached 0.7, NK cells were added with an effector cell / target cell (E/T) ratio of 0.5/1, 0.8/1 or 1/1. As a negative control, cell treated with 2% Triton X100 was used. Some wells were pretreated with mouse Cd47 or human CD47-blocking antibody (BioXCell) with 10 μg ml−1 media for 2 h. Data were standardized and analyzed with the RTCA software (ACEA).
Xcelligence sp platform
The XCelligence SP platform is a cell analysis system designed for real-time monitoring of cell growth, migration, and morphology. It provides label-free and non-invasive measurements of cellular dynamics, allowing researchers to gain valuable insights into cellular behavior without disrupting the cells.

Some wells were pretreated with an anti-CD47 blocking antibody (10 µg/ml, clone B6.H12, mouse IgG1,κ; BioXCell) for 2 h and during the assay or with an anti-SIRPα blocking peptide (2 µg/ml, catalog no. MBS822365; MyBioSource) for 2 h and during the assay. In some cases, cells were treated with an activating anti-LILRB1 antibody (clone GHI/75, mouse IgG2b; Abcam) at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Data were standardized and analyzed with the RTCA software (ACEA Biosciences).

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.
