Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four days before infection, sera were collected from individual mice for evaluation of preinfection antibody repertoire. Ten days postinfection, a second blood sample provided sera for postinfection antibody assays. The same procedure was followed for control PBS-injected mice. Sera were diluted at 1:60 in PBS. 1 × 105 LLC or EL4 tumor cells were plated in a 96-well plate and stained with a viability dye (1:1000 dilution in PBS, Ghost Red 780, #13-0865, TONBO Biosciences, San Diego CA, USA). After washing, cells were stained on ice for 1 hour with 60 µL of the diluted pre- or postinfection sera. Cells were then stained on ice for 30 minutes with FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1:100, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) as the secondary antibody. Samples were run on a Fortessa flow cytometer, and 30,000 events were recorded. Controls for nonspecific background included live/dead stained LLC and EL4 cells and secondary antibody only staining for each cell type.

At the indicated timepoints, 2×105 to 106 MEPiC or MCF10A cells were trypsinized, collected, washed and stained with a viability dye (1:1000 dilution in PBS, Ghost Red 780, #13-0865, TONBO Biosciences, San Diego CA, USA) for 15 minutes at 4 °C. Cells were fixed with a fixation/permeabilization solution (Cytofix/Cytoperm™, Cat No: 554715, BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) for 20 minutes at 4 °C. Cells were stained with anti-CEA antibody (1:100), anti-MUC1 antibody (1:100), trastuzumab (1:2000), and H14K6 (1:200) diluted in flow cytometry buffer (PBS + 1% BSA) for 30 minutes at 4 °C, followed by two washes with BD wash buffer. Cells were then stained with secondary antibodies (see ‘Antibodies” section; 1:200 dilution in flow cytometry buffer) for 30 minutes at 4 °C. Samples were run on a BD Fortessa flow cytometer and 30,000 total events were recorded per sample. Samples were gated based on the negative signal for APC-Cy7 (i.e., live cells) and APC (human) or FITC (mouse) mean fluorescence intensities (MFIs) were measured using FlowJo (BD).

Cells were then stained with secondary goat anti-mouse IgG or F(ab’)2 anti-human IgG (1:200 dilution in FACS buffer) for 30 min at 4°C. Samples were run on a Fortessa flow cytometer and gated based on negative signal for APC-Cy7 (i.e., live cells). APC (human) or FITC (mouse) mean fluorescence intensities were measured. 30,000 total events were recorded per sample.

Macrophage-Mediated Phagocytosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Macrophages and MCF cells were washed twice in PBS, and labeled with 1 µM CellTrace Yellow, Violet or CSFE (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA, USA) according to manufacturer’s protocol. After 2 hours of co-incubation in 6-well plates, cells were stained with a viability dye (1:1000 dilution in PBS, Ghost Red 780, #13-0865, TONBO Biosciences, San Diego CA, USA) for 15 min at 4°C. Samples were run on a Fortessa flow cytometer and gated based on negative signal for APC-Cy7 (i.e., live cells). AMNIS image cytometry was performed using an Amnis cytometer. Cells were first visualized in a bright field and identified as macrophages (PacBlue) or MCF cells (FITC). The IDEAS software 6.2 was used to evaluate the percentage of doublets using the same gating strategy as for the phagocytosis assay. The images were merged to confirm the uptake of MCF cells by macrophages. The internalization score was measured using the internalization wizard of the IDEAS software.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated over a Ficoll-Hypaque cushion (GE, Pittsburgh, PA) from EDTA-contained blood, aliquot, and stored at -80°C before use. Antibodies were incubated with PBMC at 4°C for 30 min for surface staining. After surface staining, the cells were washed and analyzed by flow cytometry. The following fluorochrome-labeled monoclonal antibodies were used (clone): anti-human CD3-percp (OKT3), anti-CD56-APC (B-159), anti-CD16-PEcy7 (3G8), anti-human CD4-BV421 (RPA-T4), anti-human CD107a-BV500 (H4A3), anti-human CD38-FITC (HIT2), anti-human HLA-DR-PE (G46-6), anti-human NKG2D-BV500 (1D11), and Ghost Red 780 (Tonbo Biosciences, San Diego, CA). Mouse IgG1-BV500, IgG1-APC and IgG2a-PE isotype antibodies were used to gate on CD107a/NKG2D-BV500, CD38 and HLA-DR respectively. Cells were collected by BD FACSVerse Flow Cytometer (BD Biosciences) and data were analyzed by FlowJo software (Version 10.0.8).

Three days after optic nerve crush, retinas were dissociated using papain digestion (17 U/ ml papain, Worthington; 5.5 mM L-cysteine; 0.006% DNase; 1.1 mM EDTA in DMEM/2% B27) during 30 min at 37 °C as previously described at [35 (link)]. After digestion, retinas were washed in DMEM, gently triturated using a Pasteur pipet and centrifuged at 300 g × 5 min at RT. Dissociated cells were resuspended in DMEM/2% B27, passed through a 35 μm cell strainer and placed on ice until use. Dissociated retinal cells were stained with Ghost red 780 (TONBO Biosciences) to exclude non-viable cells and then CFP cells were separated by BD FACS SORP Aria-IIu (BD Biosciences) at Flow Cytometry Shared Resource, University of Miami, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. C57BL6/J retinal cells were used as unstained control. Sorted cells were collected in PBS and immediately frozen at − 80 °C.

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.
