Magnetic cell sorting kit

Manufactured by Miltenyi Biotec
Sourced in Germany

The Magnetic cell sorting kit is a comprehensive system for the isolation and purification of specific cell populations from complex biological samples. The kit utilizes superparamagnetic microbeads coated with antibodies or ligands that bind to specific cell surface markers, allowing for the selective magnetic separation of target cells from the sample. The core function of this product is to enable efficient and reproducible cell sorting with high purity and recovery.

For generating human monocyte-derived DCs, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from healthy subjects by Ficoll-Paque density gradient centrifugation. CD14+ monocytes were isolated by magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi, 130-097-052) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Purified CD14+ cells were cultured in 24-well plate in complete RPMI-1640 media and stimulated with 100 ng/ml granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus 100 ng/ml IL-4 for 5 days for induction of immature DCs. Subsequently, 100 ng/ml lipopolysaccharides (LPS) was added to induce DC maturation. Forty-eight hours later, the cells were used as human monocyte-derived DCs. CD11c+ cells were isolated from splenocytes by magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi, 130-097,059) and used as mouse DCs.

Intra-hepatic and splenic lymphocytes were isolated by perfusion of the liver with digestion buffer. After perfusion, the liver was homogenized and incubated at 37°C for 30 min. The digested liver/spleen cell suspension was centrifuged to remove hepatocytes and cell clumps. The supernatant was then centrifuged to obtain a pellet of cells depleted of hepatocytes to a final volume of 1 ml. Lymphocytes were then isolated from this cell suspension using 24% metrizamide gradient separation [31 (link)]. Cells were cultured or counted and stained for FACS analysis. For spleen cells; the spleens were meshed through cell strainers (40μm BD FALCON, USA), cells were sedimented by centrifugation at 800xg for 3 minutes, and then treated with lysis buffer at RT for 3 minutes, 9mL DMEM added and spinned as before [33 (link)]. Liver/spleen NK from lymphocytes were further isolated using a magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec) according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Heparinized blood samples were obtained from 22 healthy volunteers and 72 patients with NAFLD. Mononuclear cells were isolated by centrifugation over a Ficoll‐hypaque density gradient (Pharmacia). After three washes in saline, cells were resuspended in Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, as described.17 Human NK cells were isolated from mononuclear cells by using a magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Example 1

Heparinized-blood samples of healthy volunteers and NAFLD patients and/or cirrhotic cases were obtained. Mononuclear cells were isolated by centrifugation over ficoll-hypaque (Pharmacia). After three washes in saline, cells were resuspended in medium of Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640 with 10% FBS. Human NK cells were isolated from Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) using a magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec) according to manufacturer's instructions. RNA was extracted, converted to cDNA and hybridized onto a spotted microarray.

As seen in FIG. 2, a 4-fold increase in NLGn4 gene expression on NASH NK cells was obtained (in the zone of down- and up-expressed genes with a cutoff p-value of 0.015 showed), suggesting a correlation between NLGn4 expression levels and NAFLD/NASH in humans.

The study was approved by the institutional review board of Keio University School of Medicine (no. 20140285) and informed consent was obtained from all the volunteer donors. Five‐milliliter amniotic fluid samples were obtained from 15‐ to 17‐week‐old pregnant women who underwent amniocentesis. CD117‐positive (CD117+) cells were isolated as hAFSCs, as described previously 17, 18, 19, 20. Briefly, within 2 hours, cells were centrifuged at 200g for 5 minutes. After removing the supernatant, the cell pellet was cultivated in growth medium comprising alpha Modified Eagle Minimum Essential Medium (α‐MEM; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), 15% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Invitrogen), 1% l‐glutamine (Invitrogen), 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen), and 40% AmnioMax‐II (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). After the cell population became subconfluent, these cells were stained with PE‐conjugated CD117 antibody and observed with a BZ‐X800 fluorescent microscope (KEYENCE, Osaka, Japan) to count the number of positive cells. CD117+ cells were isolated as hAFSCs using a Magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA).

Naïve CD4+ and B220+ B cells were purified from the spleens of WT and Slamf[1 + 5 + 6]/ mice using a magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec). Rag-1−/− recipient mice were injected with 5 × 106 CD4+ T cells and 10 × 106 B220+ B cells in 200 μl PBS. Mice were immunized with NP-OVA/CFA 7 days after adoptive cell transfer.

MSCs were generated from mouse bone marrow. Bone marrow cells were harvested and cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mm glutamine, 100 U mL−1 penicillin, and 100 µg mL−1 streptomycin (all from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). After 8 h, non‐adherent cells were removed and adherent cells were maintained with medium replenishment every 2–3 days. Using a panel of surface markers, MSCs were determined. Positivity in markers of hematopoietic stem cells and lineage cells was used to identify non‐MSCs. The stemness was defined by the capacity to differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes.
Splenocytes were harvested from mice mentioned above. CD4+ or CD8+ T cells were isolated using magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). T cells were maintained in RPMI‐1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mm glutamine, 100 U mL−1 penicillin, 100 µg mL−1 streptomycin, 1 mm sodium pyruvate, and 55 µm 2‐mercaptoethanol.

hAFSCs were isolated from amniotic fluid using our previously reported method [14 (link)]. Briefly, the collected amniotic fluid was centrifuged and the amniotic fluid cells were isolated. After the cells were cultured, CD117-positive cells were isolated using a magnetic cell sorting kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA, USA). According to the criteria defined by the International Society for Cellular Therapy for MSCs, the obtained cells were confirmed to be positive for mesenchymal markers and negative for hematopoietic markers by flow cytometry and to have the potential to differentiate into adipocytes, osteocytes, and chondrocytes. Subsequently, hAFSCs were cultured in the growth medium, which was composed of α-modified Eagle minimum essential medium (αMEM; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 15% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1% L-glutamine (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1% penicillin/ It consisting of streptomycin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), and 40% AmnioMax-II (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA), and used in the experiments.

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.
