The following antibodies were used for identification of immune cells: anti-mouse CD16/CD32 clone 93 (eBioscience), Gr1-FITC (Ly-66) clone RB6-8C5 (eBioscience), SiglecF-PE clone ES22-10D8 (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany), CD11b–peridinin-chlorophyll-protein complex (PerCP)–Cy5.5 (eBioscience), F4/80-APC (BD Biosciences), CD8a-PerCp-Cy5.5 clone 53-6.7 (eBioscience), CD4-FITC clone RM4-4 (eBioscience), MHCII clone M5/114.15.2 FITC (eBioscience), CD11c PE-Cy7 clone HL3 (eBioscience), and LIVE/DEAD Fixable Near-IR Dead Cell Stain Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cells were stained for 30 min at room temperature and washed with PBS; LIVE/DEAD Fixable Near-IR Dead Cell Stain Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used for 10 min to exclude dead cells. Cells were washed and analyzed by using flow cytometry with the FACS Canto II (BD Biosciences).

Multiparameter Flow Cytometry of Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For flow cytometric analyzes, recovered immune cells from processed blood and organs were first stained for surface markers using the following anti-mouse antibodies: CD3 BV421 (clone 17A2, BioLegend), CD4 FITC (clone RM4-4, eBioscience), CD8a BV605 (clone 53–6.7, BioLegend), and/or CD44 AF700 (clone IM7, BioLegend). Live/dead cell discrimination was done using LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cells were then fixed followed by staining with anti-mouse FOXP3 AF700 or APC (clone FJK-16s, eBioscience). For blood samples, 25 uL of AccuCheck Counting Beads (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were added to determine absolute cell counts. Samples were acquired on an LSR II Flow Cytometer (Becton Dickinson). Flow cytometry data were analyzed using FlowJo software (FlowJo, LLC). Lymphocytes were gated on using side vs. forward scatter plots followed by doublet and live/dead discrimination. CD8+ and CD4+ T cells were then gated on live CD3+ T cells. Regulatory T cells (Treg) and effector CD8+ T cells (CD8eff) were defined as CD4+ FOXP3+ and CD8+ CD44hi cells, respectively. Fluorescence Minus One (FMO) controls were used to guide FOXP3 and CD44 gating strategies. Absolute cell counts were calculated using the counting beads according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
