Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RBMRNA-405-induced effects on proliferation and dynamics of immune cell populations were evaluated using Accuri C6 (BD Biosciences). For T-cell subset analysis, 1×106 mice splenocytes (100 μl) were seeded per well into 96-well plates. Following two washes with PBS, the viability of cells was determined using Zombie Green™ Fixable Viability Kits (BioLegend, 423111). After washing once with FC buffer (PBS + 2% FBS), cells were resuspended in FC buffer. Then, splenocytes were stained with PerCP/Cyanine5.5 anti-mouse CD3 (BioLegend, 100218), PE anti-mouse CD8a (BioLegend, 100708), APC anti-mouse CD4 (BioLegend, 100412), PE anti-mouse CD62L (BioLegend, 161203), and APC anti-mouse/human CD44 (BioLegend, 103011). For GC response analysis, inguinal and iliac lymph nodes (LNs) were pooled and lymphocytes were isolated. Cells were treated with the same method as splenocytes except for the following antibodies: APC anti-mouse CD4 (BioLegend, 100412), PE anti-mouse CD185 (CXCR5) (BioLegend, 145503), PerCP/Cyanine5.5 anti-mouse CD278 (ICOS) (BioLegend, 117424), APC anti-mouse CD19 (BioLegend, 115512), PE anti-mouse CD95 (Fas) (BioLegend, 152608), PE anti-mouse CD138 (Syndecan-1) (BioLegend, 142504), APC anti-mouse/human CD45R/B220 (BioLegend, 103212), and PE anti-mouse CD79b (Igβ) (BioLegend, 132804).

Mice were sacrificed and tumors were harvested. 0.3 mg tumor tissue was isolated and added into a solution of collagenase (400 units per mL), DNase 1 (100 μg mL−1), and hyaluronidase (0.04 units per mL). The mixture was shaked under 37 °C for 1 h. After, the mixture was passed through a 70 μm nylon cell strainer. The sample was washed 3 times with PBS (with 2% FBS) and then resuspended in 1 × 106 cells per mL for flow cytometry analysis. Antibody (AF488-anti mouse CD45, PE/Cy7 anti-mouse CD3, APC anti-mouse CD4, BV510-anti mouse CD8, PE anti-mouse FOXP3 and PE anti-mouse IFN-γ, all purchased from BioLegend) was added following the antibody manufacturer's recommendations and incubated for 30 min on ice. Cells were analyzed on BD FACS Celesta, and data were analyzed using FlowJo 10. Cellular events were first gated by forward and then by side scatter characteristics. The cell counts for the CD45+, CD45+CD3+, CD45+CD3+CD4+, CD45+CD3+CD4+FOXP3+ CD45+CD3+CD8+ and CD45+CD3+CD8+IFN-γ+ T lymphocytes were assessed. For quantification, the proportion of each immune subpopulation was determined by flow cytometry. This number was then multiplied by the total number of cells in the tumor, which had been determined before flow cytometry by counting with a hemocytometer. To determine cell density, cell counts were normalized to tumor weight (cell number per gram tumor).

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.
