- Description
- Description: The RPA-T8 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human CD8a molecule, an approximately 32-34 kDa cell surface receptor expressed either as a heterodimer with the CD8 beta chain (CD8 alpha/beta) or as a homodimer (CD8 alpha/alpha). A majority of thymocytes and a subpopulation of mature T cells and NK cells express CD8a. CD8 binds to MHC class I and through its association with protein tyrosine kinase p56lck plays a role in T-cell development and activation of mature T cells. Applications Reported:The RPA-T8 antibody been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: Has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at test size: 5 µL (0.125 µg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. The pre-titrated test size contains BSA and/or gelatin for protein stabilization. Excitation: 488-561 nm; Emission: 578 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser. Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

- Figure 7 UC-MSCs transferred mitochondria to activate T cells. PBMCs from SLE patients were labeled with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl amino ester (CFSE) and treated with anti-CD3/CD28 antibodies for two days. Then they were cocultured with UC-MSCs for 12 h, which had been prelabeled with respiratory mitochondrion specific probe Mitotracker Deep Red (MDR). PBMCs were cultured with UC-MSCs through transwell as control. Then PBMCs were stained with anti-CD3, anti-CD4, or anti-CD8 dye and detected for MDR fluorescence with flow cytometry. Fluorescence microscopy was carried out similarly with anti-CD3/28 stimulation for 12 h and then cocultured for 6 h. All experiments were performed in triplicate. (a) T cells (CD3 positive) rather than non-T cells (CD3 negative) got MDR staining. (b-d) T cells cultured with UC-MSCs directly rather than through transwell got transferred mitochondria ( n = 3). Arrows indicated transferred mitochondria within lymphocytes. * p < 0.05.

- Figure 3 Another PBMC-RPE MLR Assay with Allogeneic iPS-RPE Cells by Ki-67 Proliferation To evaluate the PBMC-RPE MLR assay with allogeneic HLA homozygote iPS-RPE cells (454E2, 453F2, and Ff-I01) and B cells as positive control cells, we used Ki-67 proliferation by FACS analysis using antibodies against CD4 + cells (helper T cells), CD8 + cells (cytotoxic T cells), CD11b + cells (macrophages/monocytes), CD19 + cells (B cells), and CD56 + (NK cells). (A) TLHD10 PBMCs versus both 454E2 and Ff-I01 iPS-RPE cells = HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 matched. (B) TLHD14 PBMCs versus TLHD1 iPS-RPE cells = HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 mismatched, and Ff-I01 iPS-RPE cells = HLA-A matched, and HLA-B and -DRB1 mismatched. Figure 3

- Figure 3 Naive CD4 + T cells are converted to functional Tregs by tumor-infiltrating DCs and tumor conditioned medium (CM). (A-C) Naive CD4 + T cells from peripheral blood of patients with invasive breast carcinoma were co-cultured with or without autologous pDCs isolated from tumor (TI) or peripheral blood (PB) for 9 days in the presence or absence of 30% CM from autologous tumor slices or adjacent normal tissue slices. (A , B) Non-adherent cells from co-cultures were stained for CD3, CD4, CD25 and intracellular Foxp3, and analyzed by flow cytometry. Representative plots of gated CD3 + CD4 + cells (A) and quantification of percentage of Foxp3 + CD25 + cells among CD3 + CD4 + cells (B) are shown (mean +- SEM, n = 19; * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001 by Student's t -test). (C) Expression of Treg-associated genes, assessed by qRT-PCR normalized to GAPDH , in sorted CD4 + T cells, relative to expression in cultures without DCs or CM (mean +- SEM, n = 19; * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001 compared with naive CD4 + T cells cultured alone by Student's t -test). (D-G) Effect of naive CD4 + T cell-derived Tregs, obtained by co-culture with TI pDCs and tumor CM as above, on function of autologous tumor-specific CD8 + T cells. Tumor-specific CD8 + T cells were generated for each subject by stimulating autologous PB CD8 + T cells with autologous tumor lysate-pulsed autologous DCs. Tregs were recovered from co-cultures by magnetic sorting. (D) CFSE-labeled CD8 + T ce

- Figure 6 In vivo knockdown of PITPNM3 in CD4 + T cells reverses immunosuppression and inhibits tumor progression in humanized mice. (A) Humanized mice bearing palpable MDA-MB-231 orthotopic xenografts were intraperitoneally injected daily for 14 days with PBS, 1 nmol CD4-aptamer-control siRNA (AsiC-con) or CD4-aptamer-siRNA targeting PITPNM3 (sequence in A , AsiC-PI) to assess the role of PITPNM3 in TI Tregs, and other T cells and tumor control. Experimental schematic is provided in Supplementary information, Figure S9A . (B) Representative immunoblots showing selective knockdown of PITPNM3 protein in PB CD4 + T cells, but not tumor xenografts ( n = 3). (C) PITPNM3 knockdown did not affect the distribution of human CD45 + hematopoietic cells, CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, and CD14 + monocytes in the peripheral blood of humanized mice. Representative flow plots are shown ( n = 3). (D , E) Effect of PITPNM3 knockdown on TI naive CD4 + , Tregs and CD8 + T cell numbers, and apoptosis by TUNEL assay in xenografts. D shows representative immunofluorescence microscopy images. Top row indicates CD4 + naive T cells by arrows; the second row indicates CD4 + CD45RO + Foxp3 - CD4 + memory T cells (yellow arrows) and Foxp3 + Tregs (white arrows). Scale bar, 50 mum.

- FIG. 4. Capacity of iPSC-NCCs to suppress activation of T cells. (A) PBMCs (a healthy donor) in the presence of anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies were cocultured with iPSC-NCCs for 3 days. After 3 days, the PBMCs exposed to iPSC-NCCs were harvested for Ki-67 FACS analysis. Numbers in the FACS dot plots indicate double-positive cells (eg, CD3-Ki-67). These data are representative of three experiments. (B) Percentages of the proliferating T cells ( double-positive cells in A) were also examined. Data are the mean +- SD of three experiments. * P < 0.05, compared to the two groups. NS, not significant. (C) FACS density plots represent the expression of IFN-gamma on CD4 + T cells in the presence of iPSC-NCCs or control iPSCs. PBMCs were stained with anti-CD4 and anti-IFN-gamma. Numbers in the density plots indicate the percentage of cells double positive for CD4/IFN-gamma. These data are representative of three experiments. (D) Percentages of the IFN-gamma secreting CD4 + T cells ( double-positive cells in C) were also examined. Data are the mean +- SD of 3 experiments. * P < 0.05, compared to the two groups. NS, not significant. (E) Concentrations of IFN-gamma in supernatant (MLR plus iPSC-NCCs) were examined by human IFN-gamma ELISA. We also collected control samples: MLR without iPSC-NCCs and MLR plus iPSCs. Data are the mean +- SD of three ELISA determinations. * P < 0.01, compared to the two groups. NS, not significant.

In all cases, truncated NGFR (tNGFR) is included as a transduction marker. (B) Expression of CARs on the surface of engineered (NGFR + ) T cells as determined by flow cytometry (upstream gating strategy: lymphocytes - singlets - NGFR + ). Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) for CAR expression is indicated in brackets. Representative results have been replicated in 2-4 additional independent experiments. (C and D) Production of IFN-gamma (C) and TNF-alpha (D) upon CAR-T cell stimulation with HER2 + (OVCAR-3; closed symbols) or HER2 - (LOX-IMVI; open symbols) human tumor cell lines was measured by intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) and subsequent flow cytometry (upstream gating strategy: lymphocytes - singlets - CD4 + or CD8 + T cells). Percent cytokine production was normalized for transduction (transduction ranges observed: DARPin-28z, 39%-60%; DARPin-BBz, 33%-52%; DARPin-z, 25%-63%; NGFR, 63%-86%). Each point indicates data from a single independent experiment (n = 3-5 per LV construct); black lines indicate mean values.
