I'm trying to use T regulatory cell for the treatment of Sjogren's Syndrome. I have found several papers using Treg for the treatment of other diseases, but the protocols aren't detailed.
Well ghada, first you need really good sorting system to isolate these cells, so you want to have CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+ cells, but here the problem, once u permeablize the membrane the cells are dead. What i sggest is to get Dereg mice from Tim Sparwasser in Germany, so the T-regs are GFP labeled and you sort them out easily then culture them easily using RPMI 1640 medium.
