Bone marrow was first depleted of red blood cells and B cells were
then purified with anti-B220 magnetic beads using the IMag system (BD
Pharmingen). B cells were subsequently stained with anti-IgM-PE,
anti-B220-PerCP or anti-B220-FITC, and anti-CD93/AA4.1-biotin or
anti-CD93/AA4.1-APC (BD Biosciences or Tonbo Biosciences). The biotinylated
antibody was detected with streptavidin-APC (Caltag or BD Biosciences).
Immature (B220+, IgM+, AA4.1+) and pre (B220+, IgM-, AA4.1+) B cells were
sorted on a FACS Aria (Becton Dickinson) or a MoFlo (Cytomation) cell
sorter. Samples were kept at 4° at all times prior to and during the
sort and until stimulation to avoid activating the BCR with the sorting
antibodies (11 (link)). Purified cells were
either harvested immediately or stimulated with 10 μg/ml goat
anti-mouse IgM F(ab’)2 (Jackson ImmunoResearch
Laboratories) for the indicated times at 106 cells/ml in RPMI +
10% FBS. Alternatively, bone marrow B lineage cells were expanded by
culturing for 4–6 days in 10 ng/ml IL-7 (R & D Systems) at 2
× 106 cells/ml and pre and immature B cells sorted as
above.

After the cells had been prepared, between 500,000 and 1.25 million cells from these single-cell suspensions were incubated with 1 μg of the appropriate primary antibodies (listed below) for 45 minutes on ice, with vortexing at every 7–10 minute intervals. These cells were washed twice with phosphate buffer followed by incubation for 15 minutes with an appropriate second step reagent-conjugated to a fluorochrome. After 15 minutes the cells were washed twice with PBS, and re-suspended in 1XPBS and fixed with paraformaldehyde at 1% final concentration. 10,000 and 25,000 cells were analyzed with a Becton Dickinson FACS Calibur (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). Primary antibodies used in this investigation were: Anti-CD3-FITC, anti-CD3-PE anti-CD4-FITC, anti-CD4-PE, anti-CD44 Biotin, anti-B220-FITC and anti-IgM-PE (BioLegend Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Also anti-CD25-PE, anti-CD5-PE, anti-IgM-PE, anti-IgA-FITC, and anti-B220-PerCP (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). Secondary antibodies used were: Streptavidin-PErCP (BioLegend Inc, San Diego, CA, USA) and Streptavidin-PE (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

Assaying B cell development and proliferation

For class switching assays, cell suspensions were stained with fluorochrome-conjugated anti-IgG1, anti-IgG3 (BD-Biosciences), anti-IgG2b (BioLegend), or anti-IgA (Southern Biotech). Samples were acquired on a LSRFortessa cell analyzer (BD-Biosciences). Analysis of B cell development and differentiation was performed using anti-CD21/CD35-FITC, anti-IgD-FITC, anti-IgM-PE, anti-IgM-FITC, anti-CD43-PE (BD-Biosciences) and anti-CD23-PE, anti-CD3-PE and anti-CD19-APC (BioLegend) antibodies. For cell proliferation analysis by cell tracking dye dilution, primary B cells were pulsed with 2 μM carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE) (Invitrogen) or 5 μM CellTrace Violet (Thermofisher) for 10 min at 37C. CFSE/CellTrace covalently labels intracellular molecules, and each cell division halves the signal intensity. For cell cycle analysis, CH12 cells were collected, fixed, and permeabilized using Fixation/Permeabilization Solution (included in BrdU Flow Kit, BD-Biosciences) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. BrdU pulse and staining was performed by using BrdU Flow Kit (BD-Biosciences) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

CLL Cell Apoptosis Analysis by Flow Cytometry

Following treatment, CLL cells were harvested, stained with FITC/APC-conjugated Annexin V and 7-amino-actinomycin D (7-AAD). Flow cytometry data were acquired using a FACSCantoII flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) using the FACS Diva software package and analysed using the FlowJo software package (Tree Star, Inc., Ashland, OR) (22 (link)). Annexin V7-AAD cells were considered viable. For CLL-like mouse cells, anti-IgM-PE, anti-CD45-PerCP, anti-CD23-PE-Cy7, anti-CD5-APC, anti-CD19-APC-Cy7 and anti-CD11b-Pacific Blue abs were used (BD Biosciences). For intracellular staining, surface anti-B220-PE ab staining was followed by fixation with cytofix/cytoperm (BD Biosciences). Cells were then stained with anti-pAKT S473-AF647 and pS6S235/236-V450 abs.

All FACS measurements were conducted using a FACS Celesta (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). PBMC were thawed rapidly at 37°C. After washing with cold PBS, cells were counted using a Neubauer counting chamber and diluted to desired concentrations. For FACS analysis, PBMC were blocked with human serum for 30 min at 4°C and incubated with a pre-titrated antibody cocktail including RTX-AF647 as well as AF750 (Thermo Fisher Scientific), for live-dead staining. For FACS analysis, in each sample at least 200,000 cells were regularly acquired. If not otherwise indicated, all antibodies were obtained from BioLegend (San Diego, CA, USA). The following antibodies and fluorophores were used: V450 anti-CD27 (clone: M-T271), V500 anti-IgD (clone: IA6-2), BV650 anti-CD3 (clone: OKT3), BV785 anti-CD45 (clone: HI30), FITC anti-CD38 (clone: HIT2; BD BioSciences), PE anti-IgM (clone: MHM-88), PerCP anti-CD4 (clone: L200), PE-Cy7 anti-CD19 (clone: HIB19), AF700 anti-CD8a (clone: HIT8a). PBMC were washed twice and measured using a FACS Celesta (BD BioSciences). Graphical analysis was performed using FlowJo version 10.6.1 (FlowJo, Ashland, OR, USA). Of note, in contour plots not all cells are depicted as single dots. For gating strategy see supplemental information (Figure S1).

A20 cell line, derived from mouse B cell lymphoma on BALB/c background [13 (link)], was obtained from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA). Primary cells were isolated from bone marrow (BM), spleen (SPL) or peripheral blood (PB) of B6 by standard methods. The A20 transfectants or primary cells were stained with the following antibodies (Abs): anti-mouse CEACAM1 mAb, CC1 (kindly provided by Dr. Kathlyn Holmes, University of Colorado, CO), anti-IgG1, FITC-anti-B220, PE-anti-IgM, FITC-anti-CD4, PE-anti-CD3ε, PerCP-anti-B220, PE-anti-CD43, PE-anti-CD25, PE-anti-Igκ, PE-anti-CD138, PE-anti-CD5, PE-anti-H-2Kd, PE-anti-I-Ad, PE-anti-CD69, PE-anti-CD80 and PE-anti-CD86 Abs (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Data acquisition was performed using FACS Calibur and analysis software Cell Quest (BD Biosciences).
In some experiments, the A20 transfectants were treated with Fluo-4® (Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan), and applied for FACS to analyze intracellular Ca2+ influx. During the acquisition, cells were treated with anti-Igκ (Southern Biotech, Birmingham, AL) to stimulate BCR signaling, and kinetics for Ca2+ influx were measured at FL2.

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.
