Hi everyone!

I'm a PhD student and I've been stuck for long time now with culturing regulatory T cells (Tregs) from the mouse spleen. I've made several attempts but currently I'm using this method below:

-Tregs are isolated via the FACS Aria II (BD) after negative selection of CD4 cells (Stemcell)

- Complete medium used is:

RPMI 1640

10% FBS

50µM Beta-mercaptoethanol

25mM HEPES

0.1 mM Sodium Pyruvate

10U/mL Pen/strep

- As a stimulation method I use the dynabeads (Anti CD3, Anti 28 beads) in 1:2 or 1:3 ratio and 100U/mL or 1000 U/mL IL2 which is added to the cells every two days

- cells are first placed in a 96 round bottom well plate at a concentration of 200,000 Tregs/well

The results I get is that the purity (
