Monocytes were isolated from umbilical cord blood by centrifugation using ficoll (TBD, Tianjin, China). Umbilical cord blood was retrieved from full-term healthy pregnancies during cesarean sections. Research approval had been previously retrieved from the ethics committee of Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital (2020-science-154), and informed consent was retrieved from all the patients involved. The clinical study was conducted following the provisions of the Declaration of Helsinki (as revised in 2013). Red blood cells were removed using red blood cells lysis buffer (Solarbio, Beijing, China). Monocytes were washed with PBS (Life Technologies) and separated using a magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS) column with anti-CD14-conjugated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. CD14+ monocytes were cultured in Iscove’s modified Dulbecco’s medium (Gibco, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS (HyClone, Logan, UT, USA), 100 U/mL recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF), and 50 U/mL rhIL-4. CD14 mononuclear cells were cultured in the same medium supplemented with rhIL-2 (20 ng/mL) to induce the immature DCs.

Heparinized leukocyte-enriched buffy coats were obtained from healthy blood donors, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated from buffy coats by Ficoll-Paque Plus (Biosciences) gradient centrifugation. Monocytes were purified from PBMCs by positive selection using immunomagnetic cell separation and anti-CD14-conjugated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After separation on a VarioMACS magnet, 96–99% of the cells were shown to be CD14+ monocytes.
Isolated monocytes were cultured for 5 days in 6-well tissue culture plates at a density of 2.0 × 106 cells/ml in Gibco’s serum-free AIM-V medium (Thermo Fischer Scientific) supplemented with 50 ng/ml M-CSF (PeproTech). In order to acquire the M1 and M2 types, cells were stimulated on the fifth day of differentiation for 24 h with lipopolysaccharide (50 ng/ml ultrapure LPS, InvivoGen), IFNγ (20 ng/ml, PeproTech) to M1 and IL-4 (20 ng/ml, PeproTech), IL-10 (20 ng/ml, PeproTech) and TGFß (20 ng/ml, PeproTech) to M2 phenotype. For the differentiation of TAM-like cells, isolated monocytes were cultured for 5 days in 6-well tissue culture plates at a density of 2.0 × 106 cells/ml in Thp-1 supernatant supplemented with IL-4 (20 ng/ml), IL-10 (20 ng/ml) and TGFß (20 ng/ml). On the fifth day, TAM-like cells were treated again with Thp-1 supernatant for 24 h.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained from blood samples using Ficoll-Paque Plus (Amersham Biosciences, Uppsala, Sweden) gradient centrifugation. To purify the monocytes from the PMBCs, positive magnetic cell separation was performed using anti-CD14-conjugated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The isolated monocytes were plated at 1 × 106 cells/mL in RPMI-1640 medium (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) supplemented with 10% FCS, 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin, and 1 g/L L-glutamine (all from Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). For the induction of differentiation, 100 ng/mL IL-4 (PeproTech EC, London, UK) and 80 ng/mL GM-CSF (Gentaur Molecular Products, Brussels, Belgium) were added to the cells.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by buffy coats through gradient centrifugation using Ficoll-Paque (GE Healthcare Italia, cat #45-001-750), according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. CD14+-cells were isolated using anti-CD14 conjugated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, cat #130-050-201) [26 (link)]. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) were obtained by stimulating CD14+ cells with recombinant IL-4 (50 ng/mL) and recombinant GM-CSF (100 ng/mL) [27 (link)].
CD4+ T-cells were isolated from a non-adherent fraction of PBMCs by using a CD4+ T-cells separation kit (Miltenyi, cat #130-096-533) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The purity of the populations was checked using cytofluorimetric analysis with specific antibodies and was always >90%.

Blood monocytes were purified from six donors by positive selection over a MACS column using anti-CD14-conjugated microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) as previously described [60 (link)].
Monocyte migration (5 × 104 cells/well in 50 μL of RPMI 1640 medium with 0.1% FCS) was performed in a 48-well Boyden microchamber (Neuroprobe) through a standard 5-μm pore filter (Neuroprobe), at 37 °C for 1 h. Migration was evaluated in response to synthetic 9-GN (1 to 100 nM in RPMI 1640 medium containing 0.1% FCS), CCL2 used as positive control (200 ng/mL, 23.1 nM, R&D Systems), and medium alone used as negative control. The filter was stained using Diff–Quik reagent. Migrated cells were counted on the lower side of the filter in three randomly selected high power fields (magnification × 100). Each assay was performed in triplicate. Results are expressed as the difference between mean numbers of cells per high power fields minus the negative control (medium alone).

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.
