CFSE-Labeled PBMC Stimulation Assay

PBMCs resuspended in PBS were labeled with 0.5 μM CFSE (CellTrace CFSE cell proliferation kit, ThermoFisher) at room temperature for 8 minutes, followed by addition of RPMI 1640–10% FBS and extensive washing as described (Jenks et al., 2018 (link); Kardava et al., 2018 (link)). The cells were then cultured with 2.5 μg/ml R848 and 1000 U/ml recombinant human IL-2 for 4 days at 1 × 106 cells per well of a 48-well flat-bottom plate. The cells were collected and stained with mAbs against CD19, CD20, CD3, CD27, CD21, IgD, CD38, and fluorochrome-conjugated spike proteins RBD-B.1 and S1-B.1, fixed (Lysing Solution, BD Biosciences), permeabilized (Permeabilizing Solution 2; BD Biosciences) and stained with mAbs against IgG, IgA, IgM. The cells were acquired on an Aurora cytometer and the effect of stimulation on cell division was evaluated by analysis using FlowJo v10.

The cells were acquired on an Aurora cytometer and the effect of stimulation on cell division was evaluated by analysis using FlowJo v10. The division index, a measure of the overall proliferative response, is the average number of divisions undergone per cell in the total population, including cells that have not undergone division.

Phosphorylation of Syk and PLC-γ2 in BCR-stimulated PBMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs stained with mAbs against CD19, CD20, CD3, CD27, CD21, IgD, and BV421-conjugated RBD-B.1 were resuspended in RPMI 1640–10% FBS and stimulated with anti-BCR as described previously (Kardava et al., 2018 (link)), with the following modifications. The cells were stimulated at 37°C for 2 min with 10 μg/ml goat F(ab’)2 anti-human IgA/G/M (# 109-006-064 from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories). For the detection of phosphorylated signalling intermediates, cells were fixed and permeabilized using BD Cytofix and Phosflow Perm/Wash buffers (BD Biosciences) and stained with Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated mAb against phosphorylated Syk (p-Y348) and Alexa Fluor 647-conjugated mAb against phosphorylated PLC-2 (p-Y759) (BD Biosciences). The samples were acquired on an Aurora cytometer and analysis was performed by FlowJo V10.

Comprehensive Single-Cell Profiling of Tumor Immune Landscape

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fresh tumor tissues were processed into single-cell suspensions using a gentleMACS™ Dissociator with a Human Tumor Dissociation Kit (Miltenyi Biotec). Two flow cytometry panels focused on T cells and myeloid cells were applied to single-cell suspensions of blood and tumors. All cell suspensions were initially incubated with a Leukocyte Activation Kit (BD Pharmingen) at 37 °C for 5 h and then divided into two tubes (1 × 106 cells/tube). Each tube was stained for viability and blocked with the Fc-block reagent (BD Pharmingen). The cells were then stained for surface markers (Additional file 1: Table S1-2). After fixation and permeabilization, cells were stained for intracellular markers (Additional file 1: Table S1-2). The limits for quadrant markers were always set based on negative populations. Cells were acquired using a Cytek Aurora cytometer and analyzed using FlowJo 10.8.0 software.

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.
