The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

The TRFK5 is a laboratory instrument designed for time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) measurements. It provides a precise and sensitive method for quantitative analysis of fluorescent samples. The core function of the TRFK5 is to detect and measure the emission of fluorescent signals over time, enabling researchers to obtain accurate data for a variety of applications.

Cytokine Profiling of ILC2s

To examine cytokine production in ILC2s, single-cell suspensions of SVF were cultured for 4h ex vivo with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (Sigma-Aldrich) (100 ng/ml) and ionomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) (1 μg/ml) in the presence of brefeldinA (10 μg/ml) (Sigma-Aldrich) in a 37°C incubator (5% CO2). Cells were washed with cold PBS and surface stained before fixation and permeabilization using the Cytofix/Cytoperm Fixation/Permeabilization Solution and Perm/Wash buffer according to the manufacturer’s protocol (BD Biosciences). Intracellular staining was performed with IL-5 (TRFK5) and IL-13 (eBIO13A) antibodies (eBioscience).

Flow Cytometric Characterization of ILC2s and Th2 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the ILC2 analysis, the isolated MNCs were stained with a cocktail of the following antibodies: CD3e (145-2C11, BioLegend), CD11b (M1/70, eBioscience), CD11c (N418, BioLegend), CD45R (RA3-6B2, eBioscience), CD45 (30-F11, BioLegend), ST2 (RMST2-2, eBioscience), KLRG1 (2F1, eBioscience), and CD226 (10E5, BioLegend). ILC2s were characterized as a subpopulation of Lin (CD3e, CD11b, CD11c, and CD45R) CD45+ cells that expressed KLRG1 and ST2. For intracellular cytokine staining, the MNCs were stimulated with PMA/Ionomycin/BFA for 5 h. After extracellular staining, the cells were fixed, permeabilized, and incubated with anti-IL-5 (TRFK5, eBioscience) and anti-IL-13 (eBioBA, eBioscience) antibodies. For Th2 cell analysis, CD4 (RM4-5, eBioscience), CCR6/CD196 (29-2 L17, BioLegend), and CCR4/CD194 (2G12, BioLegend) antibodies were used. The Th2 cells were defined as CD4+ CCR4+ CCR6 cells. Absolute counting beads (Invitrogen, USA) were employed to calculate the absolute cell number. FMO (Fluorescence Minus One) and matched isotype control were used as controls. The FCM data were obtained using a spectral cell analyzer (SONY SA3800) and analyzed with the Novoexpress software (Agilent Technologies).

Allergen-Induced Pleural Inflammation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total BALBc or Il1rl1−/− PLEC were labelled with 5 μg ml−1 CFSE (Invitrogen) or 2 μM CellTrace Violet (Molecular probes), respectively, before injection of 200,000 labelled cells at a 1:1 ratio into the pleural cavity in 100 μl PBS. Fifty μg of Alt was delivered i.n. 18 h later. To block IL-5 within the pleural cavity, 30 μg of either purified functional grade anti-human/mouse IL-5 (eBioscience, clone TRFK5), 30 μg of Rat IgG1 (eBioscience, clone eBRG1) in 100 μl PBS (Sigma), or PBS (Sigma) alone was injected i.pl., immediately following injection 50 μl PBS or 50 μg of Alternaria extract (Greer) in 50 μl PBS (Sigma) was delivered i.n.

Comprehensive Immune Profiling of Colon Tissue

Single-cell suspensions were stained with the following antibodies: TCRβ (H57-597), NKp46 (29A1.4), NK1.1 (PK136) and fixable viability dye from eBioscience (San Diego, CA, USA); and CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD19 (ID3), CD3ε (145-2C11), CD45 (30-F11), CD45.2 (104), CD90.2 (30-H12) and CD49a (Ha31/8) from BD Biosciences (Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Fixation and intracellular staining were performed using the Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (eBioscience) and antibodies against GATA-3 (TWAJ, eBioscience), RORγt (Q31-378, BD Biosciences) and EOMES (Dan11mag, eBioscience). Cytokine expression was determined by restimulation of cells isolated by digestion from the colon tissue in the presence of 100 ng/mL phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), 100 ng/mL ionomycin and 10μg/mL GolgiPlug™ and GolgiStop™ (BD Biosciences) in complete RPMI-1640 media (containing 10% heat-inactivated FCS, 1 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin and 50 µM β-mercaptoethanol) for 4 h. Cells were then fixed and stained for intracellular cytokines IFN-γ (XMG1.2, BD Pharmigen), TNF-α (Mab11, BD Pharmigen), IL-5 (TRFK5, eBioscience), IL-13 (eBio13A, eBioscience), IL-17A (TC11-18H10.1, BioLegend) and IL-22 (IL22JOP, eBioscience). Cells were analysed using a Fortessa X20 (BD Biosciences) and FlowJo software (Ashland, OR, USA) was used for the analysis.

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.
