An aliquot of the T cell-enriched samples from each donor was stained with anti-human CD3 (cat No. 300426, clone UCHT1, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) for 30 minutes at room temperature to validate the isolation of T cells. The aliquots were also stained with anti-human CD3 (cat No. 300426, clone UCHT1, BioLegend), anti-human CD8 (cat No. 560662, clone RPA-T8, BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), and anti-human CD45RO (cat No. 562299, clone UCHL1, BD Biosciences). The cells were then treated with fixation/permeabilization concentrate (cat No. 00-5123-43, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) to fix and permeabilize cells for 1 h at 4°C, and intracellular staining was conducted according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The cells were stained with anti-human interferon γ (IFN-γ) (cat No. 56-7319-41, clone 4S.B3, Invitrogen), anti-human tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) (cat No. 25-7349-41, clone MAb11, Invitrogen), and anti-human IL-2 (cat No. 500307, clone MQ1-17H12, BioLegend). Sample data were acquired using the LSR Fortessa X20 and were analyzed using FlowJo software.

T cells (1 × 106 cells/mL in DPBS) were labeled with 5 μM of CellTrace Violet (Life Technologies) and incubated at 37 °C for 20 min. Medium containing 2% FBS was added (five times the original volume of the staining medium) and centrifuged once to remove free dye. The cell pellet was resuspended in 10% FBS-AIM-V medium (Life Technologies) at 1 × 106 cells/mL, and 100 μL aliquots of the cells were added into wells precoated with 100 μL of anti-CD3 antibody (0.5 μg/mL, clone UCHT-1, Biolegend) and fusion antibodies to OX40 (0.25, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 μg/mL); soluble anti-CD28 (1 μg/mL; clone CD28.2, Biolegend) was added to the wells containing T cells. T cells in culture medium alone served as the non-stimulated cell control. The cells were then kept at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator for 5 days. They were then harvested and the reduction of CellTrace Violet (indicating cell proliferation) was assessed via flow cytometry (BD FACSymphony A1, BD biosciences).

Jurkat cells destined to be IgGJ and NecJ were TAMRA-labeled prior to opsonization or killing using the procedure described above. Labeled cells were incubated for 30 minutes on ice with 25μg/mL purified anti-human CD3 (Biolegend, Clone UCHT1) to generate IgGJ or incubated for 25 minutes at 55C to generate NecJ. All targets were resuspended in RPMI-10. IgG targets were added to macrophages at a ratio of 4:1 and co-cultured for 1h, NecJ targets were added to macrophages at a ratio of 5:1 and co-cultured for 1h. Unengulfed targets were removed by washing macrophages three times with cold 1X PBS. To assess in vivo uptake of exogenous targets, 2×106 IgGJ were injected IP.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T-cell proliferation in response to HLA-E-binding peptides was assessed with the Click-iT Plus EdU flow cytometry assay kit (Invitrogen) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 0.2×106 PBMCs/well were cultured for 10 days in 96-well round bottom culture plates in the presence of 10 μg/ml peptides or control stimuli. Each condition included 6 replicates and medium (IMDM 10% human serum with 10 ng/ml IL-7) without stimuli was used as negative control. As positive control, we included 2 μg/ml of phytohemagglutinin (PHA), 5 μg/ml of purified protein derivative (PPD), and 5 μg/ml of fusion early secretory antigenic target-10kDa culture filtrate protein (ESAT6/CFP10). On day 5 PBMCs were restimulated with peptide or control proteins and 100 U/ml IL-2 was added to the medium. 24 hours before harvesting for FACS staining and Click reaction, EdU was added to a final concentration of 25 μM. Once harvested, cells were washed with PBS and cell-surface antigens were antibody-stained before fixation/permeabilization and click reaction were subsequently performed. Fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies against human CD3 (clone UCHT1, Biolegend) and CD8 (clone SK1, Biolegend) samples were acquired on an LSR Fortessa (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using FlowJo software v10.7.1 (BD Biosciences).

AT from dermolipectomies was digested using type I collagenase (Sigma-Aldrich). Whole AT was sequentially digested with 1:1 dispase (2.4 U/mL in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), Gibco, 30 min at 37 °C with shaking) and type I collagenase (250 U/mL in PBS 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA), Sigma-Aldrich, 30 min at 37 °C with shaking). After digestion, the cell suspension was filtered through a 250-µm strainer and centrifuged. The erythrocyte lysis step was performed followed by successive filtrations through 100, 70, and 40 -µm strainers. The viable recovered cells were counted and further analyzed by flow cytometry.

Peripheral blood was procured from healthy volunteers. Mononuclear cells were enriched by density gradient centrifugation on Ficoll-Paque PLUS (GE Healthcare) in SepMate-50 tubes (Stem Cell Technologies). CD8+ T cells were isolated from PBMCs using CD8 microbeads (Miltenyi) according to manufacturer protocol. Cells were further stained with antibodies against CD8, CD62L, CCR7 and CD45RA. Naïve cells CD8+CD62LhiCCR7+CD45RA+ cells were sorted by BD FacsAria (BD 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.
