Appropriate isotype control

Manufactured by BioLegend

Appropriate isotype controls are laboratory reagents used in flow cytometry and other immunological assays to establish baseline signal levels for specific antibody-antigen interactions. They serve as a reference point to differentiate specific binding from non-specific background signals.

Single cell suspensions from skin, tumor, draining lymph nodes (dLN) and spleen were stained with fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies against CD11b (PA5-79532, ThermoFisher), CD4 (116005, BioLegend), CD8 (100726, BioLegend), CD25 (102011, BioLegend), Foxp3 (320105, BioLegend), Ly6C (128021, BioLegend) or Ly6G (127607, BioLegend) and appropriate isotype controls (BioLegend) for 30 min on ice. Cells were washed and fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde and analyzed on a FACSAriaIIu (BD Biosciences). The frequency of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) was determined using the mouse Treg staining kit (eBioscience).

Identification of Hematopoietic Cell Markers

Cell surface markers were identified with the following fluorochromes: human hematopoietic lineage markers (CD2, CD3, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD56, CD235a) conjugated to APC (eBioscience), CD34 PE, CD38 Alexa Fluor 700, CD49f BV421, and CD45RA Brilliant Violet 570 (all from BioLegend). Appropriate isotype controls (BioLegend) were used for gating HSCs as described [29 (link), 30 (link)]. In some cases, following surface marker staining, cells were fixed with fixation buffer (BD Biosciences), permeabilized with Transcription Factor Fixation/Permeabilization Buffer kit (eBioscience) and stained with goat anti-human ARID3a, followed by rabbit anti-goat FITC secondary antibody (Invitrogen) to identify ARID3a-expressing cells and/or with H2A.X phopspho (Ser139) APC-Fire750 (Biologend). Human anti-ARID3a peptide specific antibodies were generated and isolated over a peptide-specific column as described [55 (link)]. Cells were pretreated with anti-human CD32 antibody to block Fc receptor binding prior to surface staining to exclude non-specific binding. Doublet exclusion was used to ensure analyses of single cells prior to forward/side scatter gating. Data were collected using an LSRII (BD Biogenics) and FACSDiva (BD Biosciences) software version 4.1 or Stratedigm S1200Ex and CellCapTure acquisition software and were analyzed using FlowJo (Tree Star) software version 10.

The following fluorescently labeled antibodies and appropriate isotype controls (all from BioLegend) were used in this study CD8α (53-6.7), CD4 (GK1.5), IFNγ (XMG1.2), TNF (MP6-XT22), and CD44 (IM7). Data were collected on a BD Symphony in the OHSU Flow cytometry core facility. Data were analyzed using FlowJo software (version 9.9.6).

Exosome Conjugation and Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometry was done as described earlier by (Bhatnagar et al. 2007 (link))). Briefly, 5 μg CUR-EXO were incubated with 4 μm-diameter latex beads in PBS (50μl) at RT for 20 min. The volume was increased to 300 μl and the beads were incubated at 4°C overnight under gentle agitation. The reaction was stopped by incubation in 100 mM glycine (30 min). Coated beads were washed thrice and labelled with anti-CD63 PE and appropriate isotype control (Biolegend). After that, the beads were washed thrice and analyzed by flow cytometry (BD Accuri™ C6 Flow Cytometer, New Jersey, USA).

Immune Cell Phenotyping by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
IMG cells were grown on a 10-cm tissue culture dish until 80 % confluent. After addition of 5 mL fresh media, cells were lifted off the dish using a cell scraper. IMG cells were resuspended to 1 × 108 cells/mL and incubated with fluorescently conjugated CD11b (Alexa 647 conjugate; Serotec), F4/80 (allophycocyanin (APC) conjugate; Caltag), or appropriate isotype control (BioLegend) antibodies (1:10 dilution) in the dark for 15 min at 4 °C. Cells were then washed three times with 2 mL cell-staining buffer (BioLegend). After washing, cells were resuspended in cell-staining buffer and were analyzed by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur, BD Biosciences). Acquired data were analyzed using FlowJo data analysis software (FlowJo, LLC).

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.
