2 mercaptoehanol

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

2-Mercaptoethanol is a reducing agent commonly used in molecular biology and biochemistry applications. It is a colorless, viscous liquid with a characteristic odor. 2-Mercaptoethanol is primarily used to reduce disulfide bonds in proteins and to facilitate protein denaturation during sample preparation.

PDAC Organoids Potentiate CD8+ T Cell Killing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse PDAC cells stably expressing OVA and carrying doxycycline (Dox)-inducible mTurquoise2-Atg4BC74A were grown as organoids, treated with or without Dox (1 μg/mL) for 96 hrs. Organoids were dissociated into single cells, which were then incubated with either anti-H-2Kb-SIINFEKL antibody (clone 25-D1.16, BioXCell, BE0207) or isotype control (clone MOPC-21, BioXCell, BE0083) at 100 μg/mL for 30 min at 4 °C. Total splenocytes were harvested from OT-I mice and CD8+ T cells were enriched using Dynabeads® Untouched™ Mouse CD8 Cells (Invitrogen, 11417D) following manufacturer’s instructions. Isolated CD8+ T cells were labelled with 10 μM CFSE (BioLegend) for 10 min at RT in the dark, washed 3x with RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS. Ten thousand PDAC cells and forty thousand CD8+ cells were seeded in 96-well plates and cultured in 100 μL 50% DMEM and 50% RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS, 10 ng/mL recombinant murine IL-2 (Peprotech), 27.5 μM 2-Mercaptoehanol (Gibco), and 100 μg/mL of respective antibodies. After 48 hrs, CD8+ T cells were harvested and stained with anti-CD8a antibody (AF647, clone 53–6.7, BioLegend) and DAPI, and proliferation was analyzed by CFSE dilution using flow cytometry. After removal of CD8+ T cells, the viability of remaining PDAC cells were measured by CellTiter-Glo (Promega).

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.
