Human B cell populations were affinity-purified from de-identified human tonsillectomy specimens using standard protocols28 (link) with approval from the Human Research Protections Programs, Division of Research Integrity of the Weill Cornell Medical College, in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. naive B and GC B cell purity ( > 90%) was determined by flow cytometry analysis of surface IgD (BD Biosciences 555778), CD77 (BioRad MCA579) and CD38 (BD Biosciences 340439).
Murine B cell populations from immunized mice and organoid and 2D cultures were purified by FACS using FAS GL7 IgD+ B220+ splenocytes as naive B cells, and FAS+ GL7+ B220+ splenocytes as GC B cells.

Isolation of Naive and Germinal Center B Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tonsils were minced, and mononuclear cells were isolated using Ficoll Histopaque density centrifugation. Naïve B cells were separated by positive selection using AutoMACS system (Miltenyi Biotec) after incubation with anti-IgD-FITC (BD Pharmingen) followed by anti-FITC microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). Germinal center B cells (GCB) were separated by positive selection with anti-CD77 (AbD Serotec) followed by mouse anti-IgM, IgG1 isotype (BD Pharmingen) and anti-mouse-IgG1 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). Naive and germinal center B cell purity (> 90%) was determined by flow cytometry analysis of surface IgD (BD Biosciences 555778), CD77 (BioRad MCA579) and CD38 (BD Biosciences 340439). GCB were further verified by expression of A4GALT and BCL6 by RT-qPCR.

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.
