Expamers Binding and Activation Kinetics

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure Expamers cell-binding kinetics, freshly isolated T cells were resuspended in FACS buffer (PBS from Thermo Fischer Scientific with 0.5% BSA from Carl Roth) and measured continuously using a CytoFLEX Flow Cytometer (Beckman Coulter). During the measurement pre-assembled anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 Fab fragments with fluorescent Strep-Tactin PE (IBA Lifesciences) were added to T cells. Increase in signal intensity was recorded.
Changes in intracellular Ca2+ were monitored using a flow cytometer LSRI analyzer (BD Biosciences). Cells were stained with Calcium Sensor Dye eFluor514 (eBiosciences) according to manufacturer’s instructions and illuminated with 325 nm laser line of a helium-cadmium laser. Fluorescence emissions from 390 to 420 nm and from 500 to 520 nm were detected simultaneously, and changes in the ratio of the two emission intensities were analyzed.
Residual content of individual Expamers components on T cell surfaces was measured using flow cytometric detection after 8 days of culture. For Fab fragment detection, T cells were stained with fluorescent Strep-Tactin PE (IBA Lifesciences) that should be able to bind to the Strep-tag of remaining Fabs. For detection of Strep-Tactin multimer backbone DyLight488 anti-streptavidin antibody (Vector Laboratories) was used.

HBV-specific CD8+ T cells were detected through staining with MHC class I multimers conjugated with the H-2Kb-restricted HBV-derived peptides C93–100 (C93, MGLKFRQL) and S190-197 (S190, VWLSAIWM), as described previously.10 ,21 (link) As a control, staining with multimer conjugated with the ovalbumin-derived peptide S8L257 (OVAS8L, SIINFEKL) was performed. Prior to use, C93 and OVAS8L multimers (kindly provided by Dirk Busch, Technical University of Munich, Germany) were labelled with Streptactin-PE (IBA Lifesciences, Göttingen, Germany), as previously described.10 ,21 (link)

Tetramer-based Identification and Sorting of B Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B cells were eluted from PBMCs using a MACS Human B Cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec). B cells were stained with rGP38 (IbAr10200) that had been tetramerized at 25 nM using Streptactin-PE (IBA Lifesciences) and Streptactin-APC (IBA Lifesciences). B cells were simultaneously stained with rGP38-Streptactin-PE and rGP38-Streptactin-APC tetramers for 1 hour on ice. Cells were washed twice in buffer (PBS, FBS, EDTA). Next, B cells were stained with a panel of antibodies. Donor 1 PBMCs were stained with a cocktail of anti-human CD3 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD8 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD14 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Invitrogen), CD16 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), propidium iodide (PI) (Invitrogen), CD19 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD27 BV510 (BD Biosciences), IgM BV711 (BD Biosciences), IgD BV421 (Biolegend), IgG BV605 (BD Biosciences), and IgA AF488 (Abcam). Donor 5 and 6 PBMCs were stained with a cocktail of anti-human CD3 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD8 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), CD14 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Invitrogen), CD16 PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), PI (Invitrogen), CD19 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD20 PE-Cy7 (Biolegend), CD27 BV510 (BD Biosciences), IgM AF488 (Biolegend), and IgD BV421 (Biolegend). B cells were washed twice in buffer and run on a FACS Aria Fusion Cytometer (BD Biosciences). B cells were sorted into Super Script III reaction buffer (ThermoFisher Scientific) in 96-well Costar plates and frozen at −80 °C.

Generation of MHC Streptamers for Cell Staining

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Generation of MHC Streptamers was performed as previously described [19 (link), 26 (link)]. In brief, inclusion body-derived recombinant MHC heavy chain was urea-denatured and refolded in the presence of peptide and β2 microglobulin. Complexes were purified by fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). Multimerization was performed with Strep-Tactin® PE (cell staining; IBA Lifesciences, Goettingen, Germany), Strep-Tactin® APC (cell staining; IBA Lifesciences) or Strep-Tactin® magnetic beads (cell isolation; IBA Lifesciences). The following MHC Streptamers were used: HLA-B*07:02/pp65417-427 (TPRVTGGGAM), HLA-C*07:02/IE-1309−317 (CRVLCCYVL) and HLA-C*07:02/MAGE-A12170-178 (VRIGHLYIL).

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.
