Comprehensive Kidney Immune Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All the kidney samples were processed in the same batch. CyTOF analysis was performed by PLTTech, Inc. (Hangzhou, China) according to a published protocol [12 (link)]. The kidney tissue was dissociated into a single-cell suspension with a mixture of DNase I, collagenase IV, and hyaluronidase (Sigma-Aldrich). Immune cells were enriched using Percoll density gradient media (Sigma-Aldrich), and erythrocytes were fully removed using ACK Lysing Buffer (Sigma-Aldrich). Qualified samples were blocked and stained with a mixed panel of surface antibodies, followed by overnight fixation. After fixing with Fix & Perm Buffer (Fluidigm), the cells were incubated in an intracellular antibody mix. The signals of the stained cells were detected using a CyTOF system (Fluidigm). The types of immune cells were identified via nonlinear dimensionality reduction (t-SNE), followed by density clustering.

The following cytokines were used: Human IL-2 (BioLegend 589104), murine IL-2 (BioLegend 575406), murine TGFβ1 (BioLegend 763104), murine IFNγ (Abcam #Ab9922), human IFNγ (PeproTech #300–02). In vivo experiments were performed with the following mAbs: inVivoMAb mouse anti-PD1 (BioXcell RMPI-14 clone), inVivoMAb rat IgG2a, isotype control (BioXcell 2A3 clone) and CD8α depletion antibody (BioXcell, 2.43 clone). Other reagents included Doxycycline hyclate (Sigma-Aldrich #D9891), collagenase type IV (Sigma-Aldrich #C5138), DNAse type IV (Sigma-Aldrich #D5205), Hyaluronidase Type V (Sigma-Aldrich #H6254), ACK lysis buffer (Life Technologies #A1049201), Percoll density gradient media (Sigma-Aldrich #P1644) and TGFβ receptor I inhibitor Galunisertib, LY2157299 (Selleck #S2230).

Comprehensive CyTOF Immune Profiling of Tumor Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CyTOF analyses were performed by PLTTech Inc. (Hangzhou, China) according to the previously described protocol.11 (link) In brief, tumour tissue was dissociated into single cells with DNAase, collagenase IV and hyaluronidase (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA). Immune cells were enriched using Percoll density gradient media (Sigma-Aldrich), and red blood cells were removed using ACK Lysing Buffer (Sigma-Aldrich). Qualified samples were blocked and stained for 30 min with a surface antibody mix panel developed in-house (online table S1), followed by fixation overnight. Permeabilization buffer was applied, and the cells were incubated in an intracellular antibody mix. The cells were rinsed, and the signals were detected using a CyTOF system (Helios, Fluidigm, South San Francisco, CA, USA). The types of immune cells were identified via nonlinear dimensionality reduction [t-distributed stochastic neighbour embedding (tSNE)], followed by density clustering.12 (link)

CyTOF analysis was performed by PLTTech Inc. (Hangzhou, China) according to the protocol described previously.
33 (link) In brief, mouse liver tissue was dissociated into single cells with DNAase, collagenase IV, and hyaluronidase (Sigma‐Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA). Immune cells were concentrated using Percoll density gradient media (Sigma‐Aldrich), while red blood cells were removed using ACK Lysing Buffer (Sigma‐Aldrich). Qualified samples were gathered in blocks and stained for 30 min with a panel of 42 antibodies, followed by overnight fixation. Permeabilisation buffer was applied, and the cells were incubated in an intracellular antibody mixture. The cells were rinsed, and the signals were detected using a CyTOF system (Helios, Fluidigm, South San Francisco, CA, USA). The types of immune cells were identified via nonlinear dimensionality reduction (viSNE) followed by density‐based clustering.

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.
