Multicolor Flow Cytometry Workflow

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After tissue disaggregation into a single cell suspension, cells were first stained with a panel of fluorescently labelled antibodies to surface antigens, washed with FACS wash buffer (1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), 0.01% NaN3 in PBS) then fixed using CytoFix (eBiosciences Foxp3 staining buffer set # 00-5523-00) for a minimum of 30 min at 4 °C. After three washes in perm wash (eBioscience Foxp3 staining buffer), intracellular antigens were stained with another panel of fluorescently labelled antibodies, and cells were then washed with perm wash and analysed by flow cytometry (BD LSR Fortessa X20) and FlowJo software. BD comp beads (anti-mouse Ig k #552843) were used to establish compensation settings. Dead cells were deselected using live/dead stain, added to surface staining panel prior to cell fixation (Life Technologies Live/DeadTM Near IR fixable dead cell stain kit #L10119). Isotype controls were used during antibody optimisation.

Murine and Human Lymphocyte Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess activity on murine lymphocyte populations, pooled splenocytes were isolated from C57BL/6 mice. To assess activity on human lymphocyte populations, leukocytes were isolated from human whole blood using a standard red blood cell lysis procedure. Mouse splenocytes, human HH (ATCC) and NK-92 (ATCC) cell lines, and human lymphocytes were then stimulated with ALKS 4230 or rhIL-2 and stained with fluorescently-conjugated antibodies against CD4+ Treg, NK cell, or memory CD8+ T cell surface markers (Additional File 2: mouse splenocyte markers in online supplementary table S1 and human lymphocyte markers online supplementary table S2), and the intracellular proteins, FoxP3 and pSTAT5 (pY694), as applicable. Cells were acquired on a BD LSR Fortessa X-20 and analyzed using FlowJo software (v.X.0.7). Additional details can be found in the online supplementary methods section.

Colchicine-Induced GPVI Receptor Shedding

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine if colchicine causes GPVI receptor shedding, flow cytometry was performed under non-stimulated conditions. Citrated PRP was incubated with colchicine as indicated above. Where GM6001 was used the PRP was preincubated with 250 µM GM6001 for 15 min at room temperature prior to the colchicine incubation to inhibit metalloproteinase induced shedding. The positive control for GPVI receptor shedding was 5 mM NEM, the incubation was performed concurrently with colchicine under colchicine incubation conditions. After the incubations were performed, PRP was incubated in the presence of GPVI-AF488 antibody, CD61 PerCP-Cy5.5 and DPBS. The samples were then fixed with 0.16% paraformaldehyde solution in saline, run on a BD LSRFortessa X-20 and analysed by FlowJo X.0.7. Positive percentage GPVI expression was determined by gating CD61 positive platelets on the positive peak from the NEM incubated sample. Geometric mean was used for the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) result.

The FITC Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit I was used to measure cell apoptosis. Second passage astrocytic cells were seeded in 6-well plates at 5 × 105 cells/well for each group for 24 hours. Cells were treated with different concentrations of SFN for 24 hours when fully attached. Both floating and adherent cells were collected and washed twice with cold PBS. Then, cells were resuspended in 500 μl binding buffer, 5 μl Annexin V-FITC, and 5 μl propidium iodide (PI) and incubated in the dark at room temperature for 15 minutes. Cell apoptosis was detected by BD LSRFortessa X-20 and analyzed by FlowJo software.

PBMC from newborns d10 p.b. were purified from peripheral blood by density gradient separation, aliquotted and stored in liquid nitrogen. For phenotyping by flow cytometry, cryopreserved cells were thawed in culture media as above and rested at 37 °C for 2 h. Cells were stained with Fixable Viability Stain 780 (BD Horizon). Surface staining was performed using the following antibodies: CD3-PE Violet 770 (clone 10D12), CD4-PerCP-Cy5.5 (clone L200), CD20-AlexaFluor 700 (clone 2H7), CXCR5-PE (clone MU5UBEE), PD-1-PE-Dazzle 594 (clone EH12.2H7), ICOS-BV510 (clone C398.4A). Cells were then washed, fixed and permeabilized with FoxP3/Transcription Factor staining kit, followed by FoxP3-BV421 (clone 206D). Samples were acquired on a BD LSRFortessa X-20 and analyzed with FlowJo software.

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.
