For flow cytometry analysis cells were stained with CD14-PE-Cy7 (1:20, BD Bioscience, Breda, the Netherland), TLR4-APC (1:10, ebioscience, San Diego, USA) or left untreated. Cell numbers were quantified using the BD FACS Cantoll flowcytometer, histograms were generated using flowjo software version 7.6.2 (Treestar Inc, Ashland-OR, USA.

Example 2

Recognition of MUC1* on the cell surface was analyzed by surface staining of the cells using FACS. For MIN-C2 antibody 50 μl of a 10 μg/ml solution of purified antibody was bound individually to MUC1-negative HCT116 cells transfected with empty vector (HCT116-VEC8), or transfected with MUC1* expressing vector (HCT-MUC1*-10) and MUC1 positive ZR-75-1 cells at 4 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. Cells were washed twice, and treated with 10 μg/ml anti-mouse-PE at 4 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. Cells were washed twice, fixed in 2% formaldehyde in PBS, and analyzed using a BD FACS Cantoll flow cytometer (FIG. 2). A similar procedure was followed for MIN-E6 antibody with the only difference that 50 l of undiluted supernatant from MIN-E6 hybridoma was used in place of purified antibody (FIG. 3).

Evaluating Lymphocyte Subsets in Clinical Cohorts

Subjects had standard complete blood counts (CBCs) performed at the NIH Clinical Center in the Department of Laboratory Medicine. Lymphocyte (T cell, B cell, NK cell) flow cytometry quantification was performed using the BD FACS Cantoll flow cytometer. The following parameters were collected on most patients, but were removed in downstream analysis for the given reasons:
Three samples were removed due to inconsistencies found in their data (the sum of the absolute counts of cells from the TBNK assay was highly inconsistent with the total lymphocytes from the complete blood counts).
Absolute counts of leukocytes (including TBNK) were used for downstream analysis. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the ratio between the neutrophil absolute counts and lymphocyte absolute counts, was included as an additional CBC parameter for classification due to its previously described association with multiple medical conditions such as infections and cancer4 ,5 .

BALF cells and intra-tumor lymphocytes were isolated from tumor-bearing mice treated with GalCer. Cell viability and number were assessed by trypan blue exclusion. For flow cytometry, 2 × 105 cells were stained using a standard protocol. The following antibodies (Abs) were used: APC-labeled anti-mouse CD4 mAb (clone GK1.5; eBiosciences, San Diego, CA), PE-Cy7-labeled anti-mouse CD8 mAb (clone 53-6.7; eBiosciences, San Diego, CA), PE-Cy7-labeled anti-mouse CD11b mAb (clone M1/70; eBiosciences), and FITC-labeled anti-mouse Ly-6G mAb (clone RB6-8C5; BD Biosciences). Samples were acquired using a FACSCanto ll flow cytometer and data analysis was performed using FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences).

The cell cycle progression of cancer cell lines was evaluated using a PI cell cycle Kit. Cells were harvested by trypsin digestion, washed twice in PBS, and fixed in 75% precooled ethanol for more than 2 h. Fixed cells were then treated with kit reagents according to the manufacturer’s protocol and analyzed using FACSCantoll flow cytometer (BD FACSCanto II, China).

Grass Pea Genome Size Estimation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Grass pea genome size was estimated following the procedure described by Dolezel et al.80 (link). Fresh, young leaf tissue (40 mg) of grass pea (LS007) and P. sativum (semi-leafless, obtained from a local market in Nairobi) was sliced finely using a scalpel blade while immersed in 2 mL of ice-cold Galbraith buffer (45 mM MgCl2, 30 mM sodium citrate, 20 mM MOPS, 0.1% w/v Triton X-100, pH 7). Three biological replicates were prepared for each grass pea and pea. Supernatants were filtered through one layer of Miracloth (pore size 22–25 µm). One aliquot of 600 µL was prepared from each replicate, along with three grass pea + pea mixes at 2:1, 1:1 and 1:2 ratios, respectively. Propidium iodide was added to each tube to a concentration of 50 µM. Reactions were incubated for 1 h on ice before measuring on a FACSCantoll flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson) with flow rates adjusted to 20–50 events/s. Results were analysed using FCSalyser (v. 0.9.18 alpha), using the gating strategy shown in Supplementary Fig. 10. Grass pea genome size was estimated from the mixed sample by dividing the mean of the PE-A peak corresponding to grass pea nuclei by the mean of the PE-A peak corresponding to pea nuclei and multiplying by 4.45 Gbp, the estimated genome size of pea53 (link).

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.
