Intracellular cytokine optimization and standard operating procedure

Abstract: We describe here a method for optimizing the use of polychromatic flow cytometry (with up to 17 fluorochromes simultaneously) in surface and intracellular staining of human T lymphocytes. We will highlight and discuss how to procedurally optimize key steps in the experimental process before an intracellular cytokine staining assay protocol is finalized. These include but are not limited to the titration of monoclonal antibodies, use of a dead-cell discriminator and 'dump' channel, selection of a cytokine secre… Show more

“…Intracellular staining for cytokines and surface expression of CD107a was performed as described elsewhere [56]. In brief, P815 cells, a mouse mastocytoma cell line obtained from the American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA, USA, were pre-coated with combinations of antibodies to NKR, 5 mg/mL anti-2B4 (clone C1.7, Beckman Coulter), 5 mg/mL anti-DNAM-1 (DX11, Becton Dickinson), 5 mg/mL anti-NKG2D (1D11, Becton Dickinson), 0.1 or 5 mg/mL anti-CD3 (OKT-3), or 0.1 or 5 mg/mL mouse IgG (MOPC-21, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA).…”

“…Some groups have suggested resting PBMC overnight after thawing before testing effector functions (Lamoreaux et al, 2006;Kierstead et al, 2007). It is possible that the resting process would remove cells destined for death and allow "stunned" cells to recover functional ability.…”

“…This issue was addressed by taking aliquots of highly enriched population of monocytes from humans, RM and SM which were fixed, permeabilized and analyzed for intracellular reactivity with mAbs to the discordant Siglec-1, 5.1, 5.2, 7.1, 7.2 and 9 using standardized techniques for intracellular localization of cell surface molecules [27]. These extensive staining studies, unfortunately did not reveal any difference from the results of the cell surface staining studies except for Siglec-7.…”
