Celltrace carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester cfse

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

CellTrace carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) is a fluorescent cell labeling dye used for tracking and analyzing cell division in various applications, such as flow cytometry, cell proliferation assays, and cell-based research. The dye passively diffuses into cells and becomes fluorescently active upon cleavage of the acetate groups, allowing for the monitoring of cell division by measuring the progressive halving of the fluorescent signal with each cell division.

Suppression of T Cell Proliferation by Tregs

In this assay, CD62L+CD44CD4+ T cells labeled with CellTrace carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE; Life Technologies) served as responder T cells. Antigen-presenting cells were prepared by depleting T cells from WT B6 splenocytes using Thy1-specific MACS beads. Responder cells (5 × 104) were cultured with irradiated antigen-presenting cells (2 × 105) and anti-CD3 (2C11; 0.3 μg/mL) in the absence or presence of various numbers of Tregs for 72 h. The division of responder T cells was assessed by dilution of CellTrace CFSE, and the division index was calculated using FlowJo software.

Murine B Cell Activation Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary B cells were negatively isolated from 8–12 week old mice using Dynabeads® Mouse CD43 (Untouched B cells) (Life Technologies) per manufacturer’s instructions. Purified B cells were maintained at 106/mL in RPMI (Dibco) supplemented with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum, 50μM β-mercaptoethanol, 100mM sodium pyruvate, 100mM HEPES buffer, and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. B cells were activated with goat F(ab)2 anti-mouse IgM (10μg/ml; Jackson ImmunoResearch), anti-CD40 (1μg/ml; eBioscience), IL4 (10ng/ml), LPS (500ng/ml), BAFF (100ng/ml; Peprotech) as indicated.
For cell proliferation and immunoglobulin production assays, purified B cells were stained with Cell Trace Carboxyfluorescein diacetatesuccinimidyl ester (CFSE, 5μm; Life Technologies), and cultured at 106 cells/ml for 5 days with indicated stimuli. After 5 days, cells were subjected to flow cytometry and analysis.

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.
