Ficoll centrifugation

Manufactured by Axis-Shield

Ficoll centrifugation is a technique used for the separation and purification of cells and other biological materials. It involves the use of a density gradient medium, Ficoll, which allows for the separation of different cell types or components based on their density during centrifugation. The core function of Ficoll centrifugation is to provide a gentle and effective way to isolate and enrich specific cell populations or subcellular fractions from a heterogeneous sample.

PBMCs were isolated from peripheral blood samples from healthy donors by Ficoll centrifugation (Axis-Shield). CD19+ B or CD8+ T cells (collected populations were more than 95% CD19+ or CD8+) were sorted from among the PBMCs using a MACS CD19+ B or CD8+ T cell Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotech).

Isolation of PBMCs and Tissue-Infiltrating Leukocytes

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated using a standard Ficoll procedure. Tissue-infiltrating leukocytes were dissociated from tissue specimens and collected as described previously [28 (link)]. Specimens were cut into small pieces and dissociated using RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco) supplemented with 0.05% collagenase IV (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.002% DNase I (Roche), and 20% FBS (Gibco) at 37 °C for 1 h. Dissociated cells were filtered through a 150-mm mesh and separated by Ficoll centrifugation (Axis-Shield), and the mononuclear cells were washed with HBSS and resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS.

Isolation and Coculture of Immune Cells

Ficoll centrifugation (Axis-Shield) was used to isolate peripheral blood mononuclear from healthy donor blood samples. After 72 h of exposure to NorCA, LM3 cells or Exos were cocultured with CD4+ and CD8+ T cells that had been stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 mAb beads. These results were analyzed by FlowJo 10.0 software. The fluorochrome-linked antibodies were applied as follow: anti-human Annexin V-FITC, PI-PE, CD4-APC-Cy7, CD8-FITC, PD-1-BV510, TIM3-PE, and CTLA4-PECY-Cy5.5 (eBioscience). Detailed staining protocols were followed previously described (21 (link)).

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.
