After obtaining informed consent from patients, whole blood was taken from AD patients (n = 6, Table 1). PBMCs were purified using CPT tubes (BD) and immediately frozen. Local ethics committees of the Heinrich-Heine University (Dusseldorf, Germany) approved the study. Healthy age- and gender-matched controls were also included in the study, and were processed as AD samples at the Heinrich-Heine University.
Total PBMCs from healthy donors and from AD patients (5 × 106 each) were thawed and immediately stained for sorting. Cells were stained using CD4 (BD), CD45RO (BD), CXCR5 (R&D Systems), CXCR3 (BD), and CCR6 (BioLegend) for 30 min at 37°C.

1×106 PBMCs from patients were stained for surface markers CD3 (Biolegend, 344814), CD14 (Biolegend, 325614), CXCR3 (BD Bioscience, 550967), CCR4 (BD Bioscience, 561034) and CCR6 (BD Bioscience, 551773). Following surface staining, cells were fixed, permeabilized (Becton Dickinson, Lyse/Fix Buffer) and subsequently incubated with 1ug of P2X7R antibody (Aviva BioSystems, OASA05733) for 45 minutes on ice, followed by incubation with secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa488 (Invitrogen, A11006) for 30 minutes. Cells were washed three times and fixed in 2%PFA. All samples were acquired on an LSR-II flow cytometer and frequencies of T cell or monocyte populations positive for P2X7R, or corrected median flouresence intensity (MFI)[MFI of sample signal – MFI of isotype control] of P2X7R signal were determined with FlowJo analysis software (Treestar).

The peripheral blood of control, chronic renal allograft dysfunction (CRAD) with AMR, CRAD without AMR patients after renal transplantation was collected, mononuclear cells were separated by the lymphocytes separation medium (TBD), then labeled by the flow type antibodies CD4, CXCR5, Foxp3, ICOS, IL-17, IL-4, IFN-γ, CD127, CXCR3 and CCR6 (All purchased from BD), and sent to the flow cytometry after three washes using PBS.
Renal biopsies of all groups of patients as mentioned above were selected and cut into slices in 4 µm thickness after the formalin fixation and paraffin embedding. The primary antibodies CD4, CXCR5 and Foxp3 (All purchased from Abcam), were added and stay overnight at 4 °C. After three washes using PBS, fluorescent secondary antibody was added and incubated in 37 °C thermostat for 30 min, and observed under the fluorescent microscope after three washes using PBS. We randomly selected 7 horizons in each biopsy and counted positive cell number.

Tumors and spleens were processed into single cell suspensions as described above. Cells (1×106) were washed with 1 mL PBS. Zombie NIR viability dye (Biolegend, 1:1000) was added to each sample and incubated at room temperature for 30 min in the dark. Samples were washed with flow buffer (1.0 L PBS, 5% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% sodium azide) and stained for OVA tetramer (MBL International, Woburn, Massachusetts, catalog# TB5001-1) at 4°C for 20 min in the dark followed by cell surface markers CD3 (catalog# 565643), CD8 (catalog# 558106), CD4 (catalog# 550954), CXCR3 (catalog# 562152) and CD45.1 (catalog# 560578, all from BD Biosciences, San Jose, California, USA) at 4°C for 20 min in the dark. Samples were run on a FACSCelesta flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using FlowJo V.10 software.

TCC ICS (intracellular cytokine staining) combined with tetramer staining was performed as previously described [25 (link)]. Cells were stained with a panel of antibodies directed against cytokines of interest, IL-4 (eBiosciences), IL-5 (Biolegend), IL-13 (Biolegend), IL-17A (Biolegend), IFN-γ (Biolegend) and IL-10 (BD Biosciences) for 20 minutes at room temperature. For phenotype analysis TCC were stained with a panel of antibodies directed against markers of interest, CCR4 (Biolegend), CRTH2 (BD Biosciences), CCR6 (Biolegend), CXCR3 (BD Biosciences) and CD27 (BD Biosciences). Two profiles (TH2 and TH2/TH17) of TCCs were arbitrarily defined as follows (Figure 6): TH2 profile was exemplified by CCR4+ with or without CRTH2 expression (data not shown) and production of IL-4 (≥10%), IL-5(≥10%), and IL-13 (≥10%); TH2/TH17 profile was characterized by co-expression CCR4 and CCR6 (data not shown) and co-production of both IL-4 and IL17A (≥10%) but no IFN-γ and IL-5 by individual cells within the clone.

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.
