Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At 12–16 wk after transplant, hNSG-SGM3 mice were euthanized, and spleen and liver were collected for single-cell suspension. Spleen and liver were first digested with 25 µg/ml Liberase (Roche Diagnostics) for 10–30 min at 37°C; single-cell suspensions were made, and the debris was removed by filtering through a 70-µm cell strainer. Live cells were isolated using Ficoll-Paque Plus density gradient centrifugation. Human immune cells were enriched by using the Mouse/Human Chimera isolation kit (StemCell Technologies) following the manufacturer’s protocol. For the enrichment of CD33+ or CD33neg cells, enriched hCD45+ cells were further stained with PE-conjugated CD33 antibody (WM53; Biolegend) for 15 min and enriched by using EasySep PE selection kit (StemCell Technologies). For CD14, CD11b, CD66b, CD117, and FCER1A depletion, hCD45+ cells were further stained with PE-conjugated CD14 (MϕP-9; BD Biosciences), CD11b (IRCF44; Biolegend), CD66b (G10F5; Biolegend), CD117 (104D2; Biolegend), and FCER1A (AER-37; Biolegend) antibodies (Table S10) for 15 min and enriched by using the EasySep PE selection kit (StemCell Technologies). Isolated human immune cells had purity exceeding 95%. Human immune cells were adoptively transferred at 107 cells per mouse by tail-vein i.v. injection.

DCs derived from CLPs using AC-6-feeder system for 16 d were stained with anti-CD11b-PE first, followed by negative selection for pDCs using EasySep PE-selection kit (Stemcell). Typically, the purity of pDCs after negative selection was between 92–95%. Purified pDCs at 1.2x105 were infected with or without VSV at an MOI of 10 for 18 h. The culture supernatant were collected and subjected to ELISA for IFN-α (PBL Assay Science) as described in the following.

Isolation and Functional Analysis of Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After digestion of harvested tumors, necrotic debris was removed from the cell suspension using a Dead Cell Removal Kit (Miltenyi Biotech, CA). TILs were subsequently isolated by positive selection using an anti-human CD45-PE antibody (BD Biosciences, CA) with the EasySEP PE Selection Kit (STEMCELL Technologies, Vancouver, Canada). Once isolated, functional analyses for TILs were performed in two different ways: (i) luciferase coculture killing assays, and (ii) measurement of antigen-induced T cell IFN-γ secretion by ELISA (see above). Pooling of samples was required in order to isolate sufficient numbers of viable TILs after all processing steps (i.e. harvest, digestion, single cell preparation via filtering and washing, dead cell removal, and CD45 magnetic separation) to perform ex-vivo co-culture killing experiments. When samples were pooled, at least three replicates were maintained within each group for statistics purposes.

Isolation and Functional Analysis of TILs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After digestion of harvested tumors, necrotic debris was first removed by processing the single cell suspension using a Dead Cell Removal Kit (Miltenyi Biotech, CA). TILs were subsequently isolated using an anti-human CD45-PE antibody (BD Biosciences, CA) with the EasySEP PE Selection Kit (STEMCELL Technologies, Vancouver, Canada). Once isolated, functional analyses for TILs were performed in two different ways: (i) luciferase-based killing assays, and (ii) measurement of antigen-induced T cell IFNγ secretion by ELISA (see above). Pooling of samples was required in order to isolate sufficient numbers of viable TILs after processing (e.g. harvest, digestion, single cell preparation via multiple filter and wash steps, dead cell removal, CD45 magnetic separation) to perform in vitro coculture killing experiments.

For TANs isolation, fresh ICC tissues were sliced into small pieces and digested in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 0.05% collagenase IV (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.002% DNase I (Roche) and 20% FBS at 37°C for 30 min. We filtered dissociated cells through a 150 µm mesh and then these cells were centrifuged at 2500 rpm for 20 min with 1 mL cell suspension and 10 mL Ficoll-Hypaque in a 15 mL tube. Thereafter, the leukocytes were harvested and CD66b+ (human neutrophils) were isolated using the EasySep PE Selection Kit (STEMCELL Technologies, Vancouver, Canada) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.
For TAMs isolation, tumor tissues were harvested and digested and single-cell suspensions were collected as mentioned before.22 (link) The leukocytes were harvested and CD14+ macrophages were isolated using CD14 MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer’s protocol (online supplemental figure 2).

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.
