Quantifying B Cell Cytokine Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fluorochrome-conjugated mAbs were from BD Biosciences, eBioscience or Biolegend. α-TIM-1-PE (RMT1-4; Biolegend) whose binding does not overlap with RMT1-10, was used to determine TIM-1 expression(5 (link)). All staining was performed in the presence of Fc block. Data was acquired on LSRII analyzers (BD), and analyzed using FlowJo software (TreeStar). Background staining was determined with isotype-matched controls. For detection of intracellular cytokines, B cells were cultured for 5 hours with LPS, PMA, ionomycin, and monensin(5 (link)). Leukocytes from IL-4-/-, IL-10−/− mice served as negative control to demonstrate specificity and background-staining.

Cell Surface Marker and Cytokine Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For cell surface marker analysis, we stained cell samples with fluorochrome-conjugated mAbs (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) for 30 min, then washed the samples three times with 2% FBS in PBS. For intracellular cytokine or transcription factor analysis, cells were stimulated with 50 ng/ml phorbol myristate acetate plus 500 ng/ml ionomycin for 4 h in the presence of 1 µg/ml brefeldin A (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA), then fixed and permeabilized, followed by cytoplasmic staining with the appropriate fluorochrome-conjugated mAbs (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA). We performed sample acquisition with a FACS Aria II (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and analyzed the results using FlowJo software.

Phenotypic Analysis of G-PBSC Cell Products

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phenotypic characterization of the initial G-PBSC and CD45RA-depleted G-PBSC cell products was performed using a custom LSR II flow cytometer equipped with 405 nm, 488 nm, 532 nm and 635 nm lasers (BD Biosciences). Fluorochrome conjugated mAbs to the following molecules were obtained from BD Biosciences: CD3, CD8, CD4, CD45RO, CD45RA, CD27, CD28, CD19, CD56, CD16, CD14, CD34, IL2 and IFN-γ; antibodies to CD25 and FoxP3 were from eBioscience (San Diego, CA), CCR7 from R & D Systems (Minneapolis, MN), and CD28 from Beckman Coulter (Indianapolis, IN). MHC-tetramer analysis for viral-specific T cells was performed using iTag MHC tetramers purchased from Beckman Coulter. G-PBSC were surface labeled with antibodies or tetramers for 20 or 30 minutes respectively at 4°C. For T regulatory cell analysis, samples were fixed in Fixation Permeabilization solution before washing and staining with anti-FoxP3 mAb in 1X Permeabilization buffer (e-Bioscience). Dead-cell exclusion was performed using either propidium iodide/RNAse staining buffer (BD Biosciences), DAPI (4’6-diamidino-2 phenylindole, Sigma-Aldrich Saint Louis, MO) or Live/Dead Fixable Violet (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR). Analysis was performed using FlowJo software (Treestar, Ashland, OR).

Surface staining and intracellular cytokine staining were performed as previously described.24 (link) Briefly, surface staining was performed in 100 µl PBS with 3% (v/v) FBS and different antibody cocktails for surface markers (anti-CD3e, anti-CD4, anti-CD8a, anti-CD44, anti-CD62L, anti-B220, anti-CD11b, anti-Ly6C, anti-Ly6G and anti-CD11c) at room temperature for 30 min. Post-staining for surface markers (anti-CD3e, anti-CD4, anti-CD8a and anti-CD44), the intracellular cytokines were stained using intracellular staining kits from BD Biosciences. The cells were incubated with anti-IFN-γ, anti-IL-2 and anti-TNF-α for 40 min at room temperature. OVA-specific CD8 T cells were also quantified by direct staining with H2-Kb/OVA257–264 (MHC/peptide) tetramers. All samples were analyzed on a FACS Canto II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences), and all fluorochrome-conjugated mAbs were purchased from BD Pharmingen (San Jose, CA, USA).

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.
