Isolation and Characterization of Brain-Sequestered Cells

Mice were perfused for the analysis of brain sequestered cells. Brains were digested in RPMI containing collagenase (1.6 mg/mL; type IV; Sigma Aldrich) and DNaseI (200 μg/mL; Sigma Aldrich) at 37 °C for 50 min. Cells were isolated using a Percoll gradient (GE Healthcare). Debris was filtered out using a 70 μm nylon mesh. Cells were counted and labelled with LIVE/DEAD amine-reactive violet viability maker according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Invitrogen). The cells were blocked and labeled with FITC anti-CD45 (eBioscience; 30-F11), PE anti-CD11b (BD Pharmingen; M1/70), APC anti-CD4 (eBioscience; RM4-5) and PerCP-Cy5.5 anti-CD8 (eBioscience; 53–6.7). Flow cytometry was performed using a BD LSR Fortessa and results were analyzed using the FACS Diva 6.0 software.

PBMC or peptide epitope stimulated bulk T cell cultures were stimulated with either 1µg/mL of peptide or with IFN-γ activated HLA-matched fibroblasts infected with the HCMV strains TB40E or Merlin (kind gifts from Dr Barry Slobedman, Westmead Millennium Institute, Sydney, Australia) to assess endogenous antigen recognition. Cells were incubated for four to five hours in the presence of Brefeldin A (BD Biosciences), then incubated with PerCP-Cy5.5 anti-CD8 (eBioscience), fixed and permeabilised using a BD Cytofix/Cytoperm kit, and incubated with PE or AF700 anti-IFN-γ (BD Biosciences). Cell acquisition was performed using a FACS Canto II (BD Biosciences). Post-acquisition analysis was performed using FlowJo software (TreeStar).

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.
