6-day stimulated, CFSE-labeled PBMCs were subjected to three different panels of staining to measure: phenotypic and cytokine profile, HIV infectivity (p24) and intracellular transcription factors (T-bet and EOMES) in CFSE-low, Ag-specific CD4 T cells. Briefly, cells were first stained for viability with LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Blue (Life Technologies), followed by surface makers staining, including CD3-APC-H7 (BD Bioscience), CD4-PE-Cy5 (BD Bioscience), CD8-BV785 (Biolegend), CD25-PE-Cy5 (Biolegend), CCR5-Pacific Blue (BD Bioscience), α4β7-APC (NIH AIDS Reagent Program), CCR6-APC (R&D Systems), CCR9-PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend). After surface staining, cells were fixed, permeabilized (BD Bioscience) and subjected to intracellular staining, including HIV p24-PE (Beckman Coulter), IL-17-Alexa Fluor 488 (eBioscience), IL-22-APC (eBioscience), IL-2-PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), IFN-γ-Alexa Fluor 700 (eBioscience), MIP-1β-PE-Cy7 (BD Bioscience). Combination of surface and intracellular staining antibodies may vary according to different assays. For intracellular staining for T-bet and EOMES, cells were fixed and permeabilized using eBioscience’s transcription factor staining buffer set (eBioscience) according to manufacturer’s instructions. Cells were then subjected to intracellular staining with anti-T-bet-Pacific Blue (Biolegend) and anti-EOMES PE-eFluor 610 (eBioscience).

Healthy donor PBMC were activated with 100 U/ml IL-2 and 4 μg/ml PHA and cultured in RPMI media containing 10% FBS (R10) for 72 hrs. After activation, cells were washed, counted and plated at 100,000 cells/well in a 96-well U-bottom plate with 1 x 106 IU/ml of C.Du422.1.LucR virus and cells spinfected for 1 hour at 2500 RPM at 25°C, and then incubated for 7 days in culture. Then, HIV-infected PBMC and donor-matched CAR-T cells were co-cultured for 6 hours in the presence of monensin and brefeldin A to trap the cytokines being produced intracellularly. Each CAR-T cell to target cell condition was setup in triplicates, and then triplicates were pooled for staining at the end of the incubation. At the endpoint, cells were washed, and then stained with live/dead viability dye, CD3-APC, CD4-FITC, and CD8-APC-Cy7 in addition to CD107a-PerCP-Cy5.5 or IL2-PerCP-Cy5.5 and IFN-gamma-Pacific Blue (Biolegend). Data was collected using a BD LSR II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). FACS data was analyzed to identify the % of untransduced CD8+ T cells (UTD) or CAR+ CD8+ T cells expressing CD107a, IL-2, IFN-gamma, or double-positive IL-2/IFN-gamma expressing cells via FlowJo software (TreeStar). Graphs were generated using GraphPad 7.04.

Following overnight stimulation as described above, PBMCs (RV21 HIV-infected subjects) were subjected to staining and flow cytometric analysis for measuring de nova frequencies of C. albicans and CMV-specific CD4 T cells. Cells were first stained for viability with LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Blue (Life Technologies), followed by surface staining, including CD3-APC-H7 (BD Bioscience), CD4-PE-Cy5 (BD Bioscience), CD8-BV785 (Biolegend). Cells were then fixed, permeabilized (BD Bioscience) and subjected to intracellular staining, including IL-17-Alexa Fluor 488 (eBioscience), IL-22-APC (eBioscience), IL-2-PerCP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend), IFN-γ-Alexa Fluor 700 (eBioscience), MIP-1β-PE-Cy7 (BD Bioscience). Following staining, cells were acquired using the LSRII Fortessa Analyzer (BD) and data were analyzed using FlowJo (Tree Star). Where appropriate, Boolean gating and Spice analysis were performed using the FlowJo program to analyze the poly-functional characteristics of antigen-specific CD4 T cells.

Thawed live cells were stained with and anti-CD103 BV421, anti-CD45 BV510, anti-CD8 BV605, anti-CCR7 BV711, Anti-CD45Ro BV785, anti-CD69 PEcy7, anti-CD4 AF700 and anti-CD19 APC-cy7, anti-CD11c APC/Fire 750 (all from Biolegend), prior to sorting as above. Live melanoma cells (CD45- SSC-Ahigh FSC-Ahigh cells) and three populations of CD8+ CD4- T cells were sorted, the latter as live CD11c- CD19- CD45+ CD45Ro+ CCR7- lymphocytes distinguished by the marker combination CD69+ CD103-, CD69+ CD103+ and CD69- CD103-.
T cells were stained with anti-PD1(pembrolizumab) or Isotype IgG4 (BD). T cells and melanoma cells were cultured for 24 hours at a 2:1 effector to target ratio with anti-CD107a-AF488 antibody (Biolegend) or BD GolgiPlug (Brefeldin A) in complete human media (online supplemental methods). For non-sorted samples, 50,000 cells from tumor samples or 25,000 cells from expanded TILs were cocultured.
After 24 hours, cells were restained with all the extracellular markers used for sorting, adding anti-41BB-PercP-Cy5.5 (Biolegend) to anti-CD107a stained cells. Cells incubated with GolgiPlug were permeabilized with eBioscience FoxP3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (Invitrogen) prior to intracellular staining with anti-IFNγ-PEDazzle594, anti-TNFα-APC, anti-Granzyme B-FITC and IL-2-PercPCy5.5 (all Biolegend).

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.
