For the in vitro tumor-cell challenge, 5–10×105 tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), which were isolated from tumor tissues or lymphoid organs, were cultured with OVA peptide (1 µl/ml) for 4–5 hours in the presence of 1 µl/ml of Brefadin A (Sigma), washed and incubated with rat anti-mouse CD16/CD32 mAb (2.4G2) to block nonspecific binding, and then stained with CD8-PE-Cy5 and IFNγ-FITC or control antibodies according to the manufacturer’s instructions (BD Pharmingen). Tumor antigen-specific CD8 T cells were identified by staining with OVA-tetramer (Beckman Coulter) and TRP-2 pentamer (ProImmune). Cells were analyzed using FACScan flow cytometer and FlowJo version X.10 (Tree Star, Ashland, OR) software.

Saos-2 cells were counted using flow cytometry and then seeded onto culture plates (6 wells, 1 × 105 cells per well) for analysis of the cell cycle. The incubation medium was changed after 24 h to DMEM containing 1% FBS, which rendered the cells quiescent for 24 h. Saos-2 cells were then subjected to a number of treatments and after 24 h the cells were gently fixed by adding 80% ethanol, and then stored in a freezer for 2 h. Next, the cells were placed in an ice bath and exposed for 5 min to 0.25% triton X-100 before being resuspended in 300 mL of PBS solution that contained 0.1 mg/mL of RNase and 40 mg/mL of propidium iodide. The cells were then incubated for 20 min at room temperature in a darkroom before analysis of the cell cycle with a FACScan flow cytometer and FlowJo software, ver. 7.1.0 (Tree Star, US). At least 10,000 cells were counted for each measurement.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The sub-G1 cell population was analyzed by flow cytometry using propidium iodide (PI) staining, as described by Zhao et al.32 (link) Briefly, the single cell suspensions were adjusted at a density of 1×105 cells/well (CSC-CM of U2OS-SC and MG6-SC) and were plated into 6-well plates. The cells were treated with or without the aforementioned agents for 72 h. PI staining was performed for DNA analysis using a FACScan flow cytometer and the FlowJo software, ver. 7.1.0 (Tree Star, USA).

The percentage of apoptosis cells were detected by flow cytometry using the Annexin V-FITC staining kit (BD Pharmingen, USA). Briefly, after transfected with siRNA for 24 h, cells were digested, collected and washed three times with PBS, and then resuspended in binding reagent. Annexin v-FITC and PI were then added according to the manufacturer's instructions. A FACS can flow cytometer and FlowJo software (Tree Star Inc., OR, USA) were utilized to analyze the data.

Cell Viability Assay using Annexin V-FITC and PI

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cell viability was determined by flow cytometry using the Annexin V-FITC kit (Trevigen, Gaithersburg, MD, USA). MCF-7 and T-84 cells were seeded at a high density (2 × 105 cells/cm2) in 6-well plates. After 24 h, the cells were induced with PTS and PTSO for 48 h at the IC50 concentration for each cell line. The cells were detached with the TrypLE Express Enzyme (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), washed with PBS, and collected by centrifugation at 300× g for 10 min. Then, the cells were washed again and incubated with annexin-V FITC and propidium iodide (PI) in an annexin-V binding buffer for 15 min. After incubation, the cells were diluted with the binding buffer and examined immediately in a FACScan flow cytometer, using FlowJo (v.7.6.5, Tree Star, Inc., Ashland, OR, USA). This assay was performed in duplicate.

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.
