Flow Cytometry Immunophenotyping of Monocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All monoclonal antibodies used for flow cytometric analysis were obtained from Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems, eBioscience (San Diego, CA), and BioLegend (San Diego, CA). Each blood sample was labeled with the following 3-color antibody combinations to determine the co-expression of corresponding antigens on monocytes: APC-conjugated mouse anti-human CD45 and PE-conjugated mouse anti-human CD14; and SVF derived leukocytes were stained with mAbs (APC-Cy7-conjugated mouse anti-human CD45, PE-Cy7-conjugated mouse anti-human CD3, PE-conjugated mouse anti-human CD14, APC-conjugated mouse anti-human IL-1β) on ice for 25 min, followed by washing. Prepared blood and SVF samples were both analyzed using BD LSR II Special Order System (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). After adjustment of the fluorochrome compensation electronically, 200,000 events per sample were acquired and analyzed. FMO controls were used to set up the gating of specific cell populations.

Apoptosis Induction by LEE011 and Ruxolitinib

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To measure the effect of LEE011 and ruxolitinib combinatorial treatment on apoptosis, NKYS, KHYG and NK-S1 were separately treated at 2 × 105 cells/ml in 10 cm dishes at appropriate drug concentrations, and harvested 48 h later. Cells were washed and fixed in ice-cold 70% ethanol for 2 h before further incubation at -20°C for up to 24 h. Immediately before flow cytometric analysis, the cells were treated with RNase A (Qiagen) and stained with propidium iodide (Invitrogen, USA) for 30 min. Collection and analysis of data was done using BD LSR II Special Order System (BD Biosciences, USA).

Quantification of Tissue-Resident Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Skin was minced and digested with collagenase (Life Technologies) for 45 minutes at 37°C while shaking. The digested cell suspension was filtered and centrifuged at 1800 rpm for 5 minutes. Pelleted cells were resuspended in FACS buffer (HBSS containing 0.5% BSA) and passed through a 40μM strainer (BD Bioscience) to remove large cellular debris. Cells were stained with monoclonal antibodies on ice for 30 minutes. Samples were than washed and analyzed using BD LSR II Special Order System (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). Cells were gated on FSC-A and SSC-A, followed by doublet exclusion (FSC-W x FSC-H, SSC-W x SSC-H). The total percentage of monocytes/macrophages was identified using the following flurochrome-conjugated antibodies: anti-CD45 (anti-mouse PE-Cyanine7, eBioscience), anti-CD11b (anti-mouse Alexa APC-eFluor® 780, eBioscience), and anti-F4/80 (anti-mouse FITC, eBioscience). Anti-inflammatory macrophages were identified using an anti-CD206 antibody (anti-mouse PE, BioLegend) in accordance with the manufacturer’s flow cytometry protocol. The gating strategy for assessing innate immune cell distributions included leukocytes initially gated based on granularity and CD45 (side scatter x CD45), followed by size (forward scatter). Gated cells were stained for cell surface markers for monocytes and macrophages (CD11b+/F4/80+).

PBMC Characterization by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For each individual cell sample, 5×106 PBMCs were quickly thawed at 37°C and diluted in 40 ml cold wash buffer (PBS supplemented with 2.5% FBS (Life Technologies Ltd. Paisley, UK) and 0.1% sodium azide). The cell suspension was centrifuged at 250×g for 5 min and after discarding the supernatant, the pellet was resuspended in 400μl wash buffer. Each sample was stained for 1 h in a light-protected environment at 2°C with titrated amounts of anti CD19 labelled with Alexa Fluor 700 (BD Biosciences). Samples were analyzed using a BD LSR II Special Order System, controlled by the BD FACSDiva 6.0 software (BD Biosciences). A preliminary forward scatter (FSC) versus side scatter (SSC) gate was used to identify lymphocytes and, depending on sample size, a total of up to 100.000 in-gate events were recorded. All datasets were migrated to FlowJo 7.6.5 (Treestar Inc. Ashland, OR, USA) for further gating and analysis.

Cell numbers and fluorescence intensity was assayed using either the BD LSRII Special Order System (BD, San Jose, CA, USA) or CyAn ADP (Beckman Coulter, Fort Collins, CO, USA) as described previously,6 (link) and a minimum of 100 000 erythrocytes were analyzed.

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.
