Flow cytometry analysis was performed on samples retrieved by peritoneal lavage at 2, 4, and 7 d following implantation as described previously [26 (link)]. Briefly, 5 × 105 cells were resuspended in FACS buffer (1% BSA in PBS, 0.01% NaN3) and placed in CD16/CD32 (Fc block; Becton Dickinson) for 20 min at 4°C. Cells were fixed in 1% formaldehyde and then stained with anti-mouse F4/80 FITC Ab or an isotype control Ab to evaluate macrophage accumulation into the peritoneal cavity. For in vivo experiments, five mice per time point per genotype were used and the experiment was performed in triplicate. Dead/apoptotic cells were detected by 7AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience) according to supplier’s instructions. Peritoneal macrophages isolated on d2 post-implantation (5×105cells per sample), were also stained for CD-36 (CD36-PE (eBioscience)) following exposure to 10 ng/ml IL-4. Flow cytometry samples were acquired on an LSRII (BD Biosciences) and analysis was performed with FlowJo software (Tree Star, Ashland, OR, USA).

After treatment with atezolizumab, cells from treated and non-treated wells were trypsinized, washed, and re-suspended in 100 µL staining buffer (phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) with 2% FCS and 0.1% sodium azide) for surface staining. To gate out dead cells, 7AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) was used. PD-L1-Allophycocyanin (APC) (clone MIH1, eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) was then added and cells kept in 4 °C for 30 min. Cells were then washed twice with staining buffer and re-suspended in 300 µl for analyses. Data were acquired on BD LSRFortessa flow cytometer using BD FACSDiva software (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) and analyzed on FlowJo version 10 software (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

The expression level of SRA on macrophages in the lung, liver, and brain was assayed with an LSRII/Fortessa flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Heidelberg, Germany). Briefly, MNCs were prepared as previously described (27 (link)). First, cells were blocked by CD16/32 (14-0161-82; Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) and then stained with 7-AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), Pacific Blue anti-mouse/human CD11b Ab (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), PE-conjugated anti-F4/80 Ab (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), anti-mouse SRA antibody (sc-166184; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), and the secondary antibody goat anti-mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor 488) (ab150113). Flow cytometric data were then analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star, Ashland, OR, USA).

T-cell Immunophenotyping of MSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human and porcine MSCs were incubated with phosphate‐buffered saline containing 1% bovine serum albumin or porcine serum, respectively. Additionally, Fc blocker (BioLegend, San Diego, CA) was added to cells for 10 minutes at a concentration of 1 × 106 cell per milliliter in order to reduce nonspecific binding. Anti‐human CD3 APC (BD, Biosciences, San Jose, CA) and anti‐porcine CD3e AF647 (BD, Biosciences) were used for assessing pan T cells. Cells were stained with preconjugated antibodies according to manufacturer's instruction. Following antibody binding, 7AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience, Grand Island, NY) was added for an additional 5 minutes to exclude dead cells. Acquisition was carried out on a BD FACSCelesta using the BDFACS Diva software (BD, Biosciences). Analysis was completed using FlowJo analysis software.

Cells were transfected with siRNAs against the proteins of interest or non-targeting siRNAs. 72 h post‐transfection cells were incubated with 10 μM EdU for 1 h before collection and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution. Permeabilization of the cells was performed by incubation in 1% BSA in PBS. Click reaction was performed (Alexa Fluor 647 (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 10 mM (+)‐sodium l‐ascorbate and 2 mM copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate in PBS) for 1 h. Subsequently, cells were incubated for 20 min with 7‐AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience) before analysis by flow cytometry using a BD LSRFortessa SORP.

Spleens and bone marrow were harvested. Single cell suspensions were prepared in PBS supplemented with 2% FBS and 2mM EDTA and filtered through a 40μm cell strainer (BD Biosciences, Mississauga, ON, Canada) to remove cell aggregates. Single cell suspensions were counted manually and viability determined by trypan blue exclusion was always >95%. Cells (1x106) were then incubated with 0.5 μg of anti-CD16/CD32 monoclonal antibodies (eBioscience Inc, San Diego, CA, USA) prior to staining with the following fluorescence-conjugated antibodies purchased from eBioscience: anti-mouse TER119-PE (clone TER119), anti-mouse CD71-FITC (clone R17217) and anti-mouse CD44-APC (clone IM7). Non-viable cells were excluded using 7-AAD viability staining solution (eBioscience Inc, San Diego, CA, USA).

Apoptosis Assessment by Annexin V-7-AAD

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Many agents, including the clinically useful sorafenib, can induce apoptosis [20 (link)]. Following 24-h treatment with 8 μM sorafenib, PANC-1–derived clones were trypsinized, washed with cold PBS, and resuspended in PBS. The advantage of 7-amino-actinomycin D (7-AAD) over propidium iodide is that there is minimal spectral overlap between the emissions. We used a fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit with 7-AAD (#640922; BioLegend, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 5 μL FITC–annexin V and 5 μL 7-AAD Viability Staining Solution (#00-6993; eBioscience, USA) were added to a 100-μL cell suspension (1 × 106 cells) in binding buffer. The cells were gently vortexed and incubated for 15 min at room temperature in the dark, and 400 μL binding buffer was added for flow cytometric analysis using a FACScan Flow Cytometer (Becton Dickinson).

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.
