Anti-ULBP1, anti-ULBP2 and anti-ULBP3 antibodies were purchased from R&D systems (catalog numbers: MAB1380, 1248 and 1517 respectively) and used both for flow cytometry and for ELISA assays. Anti-ULBP1 antibody, (catalog number Sc33564, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used for western blotting of ULBP1. The W6/32 mAb was used for MHC-I staining. Anti-NKG2D antibody was purchased from R&D Systems (MAB139). The anti-CD99 (12E7) was used as an isotype control. Anti-CD107a (LAMP-1) was purchased from BioLegend (catalog number 328620). Anti-CD56 (Becton Dickinson) and anti-CD3 (BioLegend) antibodies were used to determine NK purity. Anti-VP2/3 and agnoprotein antibodies were produced in house as well as the rabbit polyclonal antibodies against VP1. Anti-T-Ag antibody was purchased from Abcam (Pab416). The commercial recombinant ULBP-1 Fc chimeric protein (R&D systems, catalog number 1380-UL) was used for the generation of ULBP1 standard curve.
CD16-Ig, NKp30-Ig and NKp46-Ig and NKG2D-Ig fusion proteins were generated in the human embryonic kidney 293T cells and were purified on a protein G column as described [38 (link)]. The fusion proteins used in this work were regularly assayed by SDS-PAGE protein gels, to ensure that the proteins were not degraded. Protein purity of all Ig fusion proteins used in this study was approximately 100%.

Lenalidomide was purchased from (BioVision Inc.), Pomalidomide and Phthalimide were purchased from (Sigma-Aldrich). These drugs were dissolved in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) and stored at −20°C until use. The final concentration of DMSO in all experiments was < 0.1%.
The following monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were used for immunostaining or as blocking Abs: anti-MICA (MAB159227), anti-MICB (MAB236511), anti-ULBP-1 (MAB170818), anti-ULBP-2/5/6 (MAB165903), anti-ULBP-3 (MAB166510) and anti-NKG2D (MAB149810) from (R&D System), anti-PVR/CD155 (SKII.4) kindly provided by Prof. M. Colonna (Washington University, St Louis, MO), anti-CD56 (C218) mAb was provided by Dr. A. Moretta (University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy), anti-DNAM-1 (DX11) from (Serotec), APC Goat anti-mouse IgG (Poly4053), anti-CD3/APC (HIT3a), anti-CD56/PE (HCD56), mouse IgG1/FITC, /PE or /APC isotype control (MOPC-21) were purchased from (BioLegend). Anti-CD107a/FITC (H4A3), anti-CD138-FITC (M15) and anti-CD38-APC (HIT2) were purchased from (BD Biosciences).

Evaluation of Tumor-derived Soluble NKG2DL Inhibition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T cells were resuspended in complete medium with a density of 1×106 cells/ml and were cultured with anti-CD28 (2 µg/ml) and IL-2 (10 U/ml) in a 24-well plate pre-coated with 5 µg/ml anti-CD3. Subsequently, T cells were co-cultured with or without 100 µl serial diluted tumor sup for 24 h. For neutralizing sNKG2DL, single and combined soluble NKG2DL neutralizing antibodies (1, 2, or 5 µg/ml anti-MICA/B, ULBP1, ULBP2, and/or ULBP3) were added to T cells and to the tumor cell supernatant co-culture system. Then, these T cells were harvested and prepared for flow cytometric analysis. Neutralized antibodies (anti-MICA/B, anti-ULBP1, anti-ULBP2, and anti-ULBP3) were purchased from R&D Systems, Inc. (cat. nos. MAB13001, MAB1380, MAB1298 and MAB1517, respectively).

Flow Cytometric Evaluation of Stress-Induced Ligands

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were stained with a mouse isotype IgG2b antibody (Biolegend), with anti-MICA, anti-MICB, anti-ULBP1, anti-ULBP2 (the antibody also recognizes ULBP5 and ULBP6), anti-ULBP3 antibodies (all obtained from R&D Systems), or with the anti-HLA-A, B, C monoclonal antibody W6/32 antibody (purified from the hybridoma). 0.2 µg primary antibodies per staining were added in 100 µL PBS (2 µg/mL) supplemented with 1% BSA and 1mM EDTA and incubated for about 30 minutes at 4°C. Following one wash, the primary antibody was detected using an anti-mouse IgG antibody coupled to Alexa Fluor 647 (Jackson ImmunoResearch) for another 30 minutes at 4°C. For the characterization of cells overexpressing viral genes, staining of the stress-induced ligands was assessed on GFP positive cells.

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.
