Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Second generation CD19-targeting CAR construct consists of an extracellular antigen-binding domain (CD19-scFV), CD8 for hinge and transmembrane domain, 4-1BB co-stimulatory domain, and CD3ζ chain signaling domain followed by EGFRt as a tag. PBMC were collected from buffy coat from healthy donors. T cells were purified on LS columns (Miltenyi Biotec, # 130-042-401) using CD4 and CD8 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec, #130-045-101 and #130-045-201), were activated with CD3/CD28 beads (T Cell TransAct; Miltenyi Biotec, #130-111-160) and incubated for 24 h. Then, activated T cells were transduced with the lentiviral vector (pCDH-EF1a-CD19 (FMC63)-2nd(4-1BB)-EGFRt; Creative biolabs) carrying the CAR construct. Activated T cells were cultured in TexMACS media (Miltenyi Biotec, #130-097-196) with hIL-7 (155U/mL, Miltenyi Biotec, # 130-095-362) and hIL-15 (290U/mL, Miltenyi Biotec, #130-095-762). CAR positivity was confirmed by expression of EGFRt in CD45+CD3+CD19 population by flow cytometry. Expanded CART19 cells were frozen and stored in vials in liquid nitrogen before use.

Naive CD4+ T cells were plated at 0.5 × 106 cells/well (200 μl/well) in a 96-well round bottom plate and cultured in medium containing 10 ng/ml hIL-2, hIL-7 and hIL-15 (Miltenyi). Additionally, monoclonal antibodies against CD3 (0.1 μg/ml, clone CLB-T3/4.E, Sanquin) and CD28 (0.2 μg/ml, clone CLB-CD28/1, Sanquin) were added to generate activated CD4+ T cells. The supernatant was collected after 48 h of culture and frozen at −20 °C until analysis. A Human IFN-Beta ELISA Kit with high sensitivity (PBL Assay Science) was used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Naive CD4+ T cells were flow sorted on the basis of the CD3+HLA-DR-CD4+CD25-/lowCD45RA+ phenotype and cultured for 48-72 h after plating at 0.5 × 106 cells/well in 96-well round bottom plates (BD Falcon) in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and Antibiotic–Antimycotic Solution (Sigma) in the presence of hIL-2, hIL-7 and hIL-15 (Miltenyi, each 10 ng/ml); additionally, monoclonal antibodies against CD3 and CD28 were added to activate CD4+ T cells. In addition, CD4+ T cells were treated with a STING inhibitor (H-151, 15 ng/ml; InvivoGen) or a STING agonist (2′3′-cGAMP, 15 μg/ml; InvivoGen) for the last 8 h of culture. Intracellular IFNβ and phosphoprotein detection was performed using flow cytometry.

Isolation and Expansion of hTERT-Specific T Cells

hTERT865-873 -specific TCR sequences were isolated as previously described in [38 (link)]. As control, T cells engineered with a transgenic TCR specific for epitope hHCV1406-1415 (KLVALGINAV) were used. hTERT865-873 - and hHCV1406-1415- specific T cells were obtained by transduction of OKT-3-activated PBMCs with the viral supernatant of hTERT865-873/PG13 or HCV1406-1415/PG13 cell lines in the presence of hIL-15 (hIL-15, 100 ug/ml, Miltenyi) and rIL-2 (rIL-2, 300 IU/ml; Peprotech). Selected T cells were then expanded in AIM-V medium (Gibco) supplemented with 5% human serum (Gibco) with OKT-3 (30 ng/ml; eBioscience), recombinant IL-2 and human IL-15. The percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in the culture was always tested before in vitro or in vivo studies. In general, CD8+ T lymphocytes represent about 70-80% of the total T cells and numbers for in vivo treatments were adjusted in order to inject 2.5×106 CD8+ T cells.

Murine T Cell Activation and Expansion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Murine T cells were activated for 24 h with (i) αCD3/CD28 Ab-coated beads (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific) at a bead to cell ratio of 2:1 and 50 IU/ml of hIL-2 (Glaxo), (ii) plate-coated αCD3 Ab (5 µg/ml; eBioscience) plus soluble αCD28 Ab (2 µg/ml; eBioscience) and hIL-2 (50 IU/ml), or (iii) Concanavalin A (2 µg/ml; Sigma), hIL-7 (1 ng/ml; Miltenyi) and 50 IU/ml hIL-2 before transduction. Transduced T cells were cultured at a concentration of 0.5–106 cells/ml in T cell medium enriched with 50 IU/ml hIL-2 only or with 10 ng/ml of both hIL-7 and hIL-15 (Miltenyi) from day 2 after transduction onwards. T cells were typically counted every 2–3 d. T cell expansion was calculated by dividing the absolute number of expanded T cells at each time point during culture by the respective number on day 0 (T cell transduction). T cell viability was assessed by trypan blue staining, and the phenotype was assessed by cell-surface staining of CD44 and CD62L followed by flow cytometric analysis.

NK cells were purified from mouse spleens using Mouse NK cell isolation Kit according to manufacturer’s specifications (STEMCELL #19855). NK cells were then expanded for 6 days with hIL-15 50 ng/mL (Miltenyi #130-095-765) in RPMI 20% FCS supplemented with L-glutamine (2 mM; Gibco), penicillin/streptomycin (100 µg/mL; Gibco), Sodium Pyruvate (1 mM; Gibco) and finally FACS sorted (NK1.1+, NKp46+, CD3-, CD19-) (BD Biosciences FACSAria III). After overnight starvation in the absence of IL-15, Cish+/+Ncr1 iCre or Cishfl/flNcr1iCre NK cells were stimulated or not during 4 hours with IL-2 (Proleukin, Novartis pharma SAS) or IL-15.

Ex vivo-generated cDC1s were purified by flow cytometry and were then cocultured with activated CD4+ T cells for 12 h. An anti-IFNAR2 monoclonal blocking antibody (clone MMHAR-3, 5 μg/ml; PBL Assay Science), an anti-IFNGR1 blocking antibody (5 μg/ml; R&D Systems), or mouse IgG2A isotype control (5 μg/ml; InvivoGen) were added accordingly. cDC1s cultured ex vivo without CD4+ T cells were used as controls.

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.
