For each sample, 2 × 105 purified NK cells were resuspended in Tris-buffered saline (TBS, pH 7.4), supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and subsequently incubated with indicated concentration of bio-MBL or bio-HSA at 4°C for 1 h, followed by washing with TBS to remove the unbound proteins. Cells were then stained with streptavidin-FITC (BD Biosciences Pharmingen, San Diego, CA). The binding of MBL was analyzed by FACSCalibur (Becton Dickinson, Mountain View, CA, USA); cells stained with streptavidin-FITC served as the control. For competition studies, NK cells were preincubated with 50 μg/ml mannan, CLR, or CRD of MBL 4°C for 30 min.
For ELISA, 2 × 105 purified NK cells were pretreated with or without CLR of MBL at 4°C for 30 min, followed by incubation with indicated concentrations of MBL at 4°C for 1 h, then washed with TBS to remove the unbound proteins. Subsequently, the cells were coated onto ELISA wells (Nunc, Kamstrup, Denmark) by centrifugation and subsequently fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min at RT. After that, the cells were washed with TBS and then incubated with mouse anti-MBL antibody (3B6) following by goat anti-mouse IgG H&L (HRP).

Adherent cells were washed with Dulbecco's PBS (DPBS) (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, #12563011) and treated with Tryp‐LE Select (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, #12563011) at 37°C for 5 minutes, followed by gentle pipetting to complete cell dissociation. The dissociated cells were then washed with DPBS several times before antibody staining for flow cytometry. For suspension hematopoietic cells, gentle pipetting was used to dislodge any loosely adhered hematopoietic cells from the adherent stromal layer, and the cells were washed multiple times with PBS before staining. Cells were stained in ice‐cold fluorescence‐activated cell sorting buffer (PBS, 1% BSA).

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.
