Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in SLE patients and healthy donors were analyzed by flow cytometry (FACSAria II; BD Biosciences). To analyze IL-2 production, PBMCs were stimulated and incubated for 4 h with 50 ng/mL phorbol myristate acetate, 1 μ g/mL ionomycin (both from Sigma-Aldrich), and 1  μ L/mL GolgiStop (BD Biosciences). After stimulation, the cell surface markers CD4, CD3, CD8, CD56, CD25 and CD127 were stained with the fluorescence labeled monoclonal antibodies. Next, the cells were fixed and permeabilised for 30 min at 4°C at dark with BD FACS fixation and permeabilisation buffer set (BD Biosciences). Then the cells were stained with PE labeled anti-human-IL-2 antibody. Proportion of IL-2 expressing cells in CD4+ effector T cells (defined as CD4+ CD8 CD127hi/low CD25low/−), double-negative T cells (DNT cell, CD3+ CD4 CD8), NK cells (CD56+ CD3) and NKT cells (CD56+ CD3+) was analyzed using FlowJo v10 software (Tree Star). Antibodies used for flow cytometry included APC-H7-anti-human CD3 (Biolegend), Percp-anti-human CD8 (Biolegend), FITC-anti-human CD4 (Biolegend), BV421-anti-human CD25 (Biolegend), BV605-anti-human CD127 (Biolegend), APC-anti-human CD56 (Biolegend) and PE-anti-human IL-2 (Biolegend).

Isolation and Characterization of ccRCC Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The surgically isolated ccRCC cancerous tissues were used for the preparation of single-cell suspensions after digestion with collagenase IV (30 mg/mL, Gibco, #17104-019). To remove debris, the samples were filtered through a 70 μm cell strainer. After counting, 1 × 106 cells were used for staining for each sample, and the cells were suspended with MACS buffer (Miltenyi Biotec, #130-091-221). After blocking the potential unspecific binding sites, the cells were performed surface and intracellular staining with FITC anti-human CD16 (Biolegend, #980112), APC anti-human CD56 (Biolegend, #981204), Alexa Fluor 405 anti-human GZMH (GBiosciences, #ITT2050-405), PE anti-human EGR1 (Invitrogen, # 12-9851-42), and anti-human/anti-mouse CAPG (Creative Biolabs, #CBMAB-C0844-FY). The CAPG antibody was conjugated with Alexa Fluor 700 (Invitrogen, #A20110). The dead cells were counterstained with fixable viability dye. The stained samples were resuspended with PBS/0.5%BSA/2 mM EDTA buffer and recorded on a flow cytometer (ThermalFisher Attune Nxt).

DNA Methylation Profiling of CD8+ T Cells in Lupus

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For DNA methylation studies, eight patients with lupus and eight healthy controls recruited from the University of Michigan rheumatology clinics were matched by age (±5 years), sex and ethnicity (online supplementary table 1). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were extracted from whole blood via Ficoll-Paque PLUS density centrifugation (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences). Total T cells were isolated using negative selection by magnetic bead separation with the Human Pan T cell Isolation II kit (Miltenyi Biotec). Flow cytometry sorting was used to isolate CD3+ CD56-TCRαβ+ CD8+ T cells using the following fluorophore-conjugated antibodies: APC anti-human CD56 (clone: HCD56), FITC anti-human CD8a (clone: RPA-T8), Pacific Blue anti-human CD3 (clone: HIT3a) and PE anti-human alpha/beta-TCR (clone: IP26) (BioLegend), as previously described.23 (link) DNA was extracted from CD8+ T cells using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit (Qiagen) and bisulfite converted with the EZ DNA Methylation kit (Zymo Research) for DNA methylation analysis. It is worth noting that TCRαβ+CD8+T cells constituted ~99% of CD8+ T cells in the peripheral blood of patients with lupus or controls.

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.
