The anti-CD11b antibody (H5A4) supernatant, developed by J.T. August and J.E.K. Hildreth of Johns Hopkins University, was obtained from the Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank, created by the NICHD of the NIH and maintained at the University of Iowa, Department of Biology, Iowa City, IA 52242. Anti-CD11b-conjugated AIS/Zn QDs, referred to as CD11b-QD, were prepared by covalently conjugating anti-CD11b antibody (H5A4) to AIS/Zn QDs using EDC (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride; Thermo Fisher Scientific) / NHS (N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide; Thermo Fisher Scientific) chemistry. Specifically, as-synthesized AIS/Zn QD solutions were sterilized by passage through a 0.2 μm PES filter. The QDs in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 9) were then re-suspended in 1X phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; pH 7.4), followed by three washes in PBS using 30-kDa Amicon centrifugal filters (4500 g, 5 min). 500 μL of a 20 mg/mL EDC solution and 500 μL of a 20 mg/ml NHS solution were added to 5 ml of the sterilized AIS/Zn QDs in PBS solution, and the solution was incubated for 30 min at room temperature. Conjugation of the anti-CD11b antibody to AIS/Zn QDs was initiated by the addition of 50 μl of anti-CD11b antibody, followed by incubation for 30 min at room temperature.

Functionalization of Polystyrene Microspheres with DNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To functionalize polystyrene microspheres with DNA, we mixed either single-stranded or double-stranded oligonucleotides containing a 5’ amino-modifier (Table s2) with 2.1 μm carboxyl-polystyrene beads (Spherotech). Coupling of the oligonucleotide to the bead surface was achieved by chemical crosslinking with 1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl] carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC; ThermoFisher) in the presence of N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide (Sulfo-NHS) in 100 mM MES-Na (pH 6) buffer. The reaction was quenched by addition of TE8 buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 1 mM EDTA, pH 8). Unreacted material was removed by washing the beads three times with TE8. Beads modified with single-stranded DNA (“ssDNA-beads”) were used to generate long DNA handles. Beads modified with double-stranded DNA (“dsDNA-beads”) were used to immobilize proteins and RNCs. In this case, the double-stranded oligonucleotides contained a 4-nucleotide single-stranded overhang with a sequence reverse-complementary to the overhang of the dsOligo-CoA DNA.

SARS-CoV-2 proteins were coupled to MagPlex Microspheres of spectrally distinct regions (Luminex; Austin, TX). Coupling was carried out at room temperature following standard carbodiimide coupling procedures. Microspheres were washed once with deionized water and incubated for 20 min in the dark in an end-over-end rotator suspension of 0.1 M NaH2PO4 (VWR International; Radnor, PA), 5 mg/ml 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (Thermo Fisher Scientific; Waltham, MA), and 5 mg/ml N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide; Thermo Fisher Scientific). Activated microspheres were washed twice in 0.05 M MES (Boston Bioproducts, Ashland, MA) and incubated for 2 h in the dark in an end-over-end rotator, 500-μl suspension of 0.05 M MES containing 300 nmol/l Ag and 1 × 106 microspheres (0.15 nmol Ag/106 microspheres). Coupled microspheres were washed four times in a blocking buffer consisting of 1% BSA (Boston Bioproducts), 1× PBS (VWR International), 0.05% sodium azide (VWR International), and 0.02% Tween 20 (VWR International). Coupled microspheres were then stored at a concentration of 106 spheres/ml at 4°C in the same blocking buffer. Concentrations of spheres were confirmed by counting on a Bio-Rad T20 Cell Counter.

For FcR binding, FcγRIIIa/CD16a, FcγRIIa/CD32a, FcγRIIb/CD32b, and FcRN (R&D Systems) labeled with PE (Abcam) were used (1 µg/mL). PE signals were measured on a MAGPIX (Luminex). Replicate samples over 3 serial dilutions were tested in 2 independent experiments. Representative data were chosen by the highest signal-to-noise ratio [8 (link), 33 (link)].

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The viral peptides and proteins were immobilised on the surface of colour‐coded magnetic beads (MagPlex, Luminex Corp., Austin, TX, USA) as previously described.37 Briefly, each antigen was diluted to a final concentration of 80 µg mL−1 in 100 mm 2‐(N‐morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid buffer, pH 4.5 (Sigma‐Aldrich) and coupled to one bead identity (colour code). The carboxylated surface of 1 × 106 colour‐coded magnetic beads per bead identity was activated by using 100 µL phosphate buffer complemented with 0.5 mg 1‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐3‐ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (ProteoChem, Inc., Hurricane, UT, USA) and 0.5 mg N‐hydroxysulfosuccinimide (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Activated beads were incubated for 2 h with the diluted antigen, followed by overnight incubation in blocking buffer (Blocking Reagent for ELISA, Roche, supplemented with 0.1% (v/v) ProClin, Sigma‐Aldrich). The bead identities were then pooled to form the antigen‐bead array. Besides the viral antigens, two bead identities were coupled with anti‐human IgG (309‐005‐082, Jackson Immunoresearch, West Grove, PA, USA) and the EBNA1 protein (ab138345, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) from the common Epstein–Barr virus and used as sample loading controls.

Primary MSCs were painted with purified human CFH (Complement technology Inc, Tyler, TX) after 1-ethyl-3-(-3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)-mediated activation of carboxyl groups. In brief, 2 mM EDC and 5 mM N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) were added to CFH solution at the indicated concentration and allowed to react for 15 min at room temperature to create activated carboxyl groups, then 20 mM β-mercaptoethanol was added to quench the excess EDC and the activated CFH was separated using a desalting column (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) equilibrated with PBS. MSCs (2×104) were then incubated with different concentrations of activated CFH for 30 min at 37°C in 100 μl PBS, then the cells were washed with PBS and used for experiments.

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.
