We are trying to find to detect naive T cells in the peripheral blood using flow cytometry. I would be happy to if anyone could help me and let me know if this is basically possible.
It is possible by using CCR7, CD28, CD95, CD62L markers. The % largely varies from person to person based on their age and their pathogen/vaccine exposure history. You just need to test a panel of samples to get your own data.
In summary, naïve T cells are CD45RA+CD45RO-CCR7+CD62L+, central memory T cells are CD45RA-CD45RO+CCR7+CD62L+, effector memory T cells are CD45RA-CD45RO+CCR7-CD62L-, and effector cells are CD45RA+CD45RO-CCR7-CD62L-. Thus, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD45RA or CD45RO, and CCR7 or CD62L or CD27, are a great starting point for designing flow cytometry panels for the assessment of T cells present in human PBMC. {source: Basic markers of T cell populations in human PBMC

Why there is low CD4+ T cell percentage of naive CD4+ T cells after isolation?
Question

Nancy Zheng
Hi all,
I am trying to isolate naive CD4+ T cells from human PBMC. I used Miltenyi kit and stained with anti-CD3, CD4 and CD45RA after isolation to check purity with flow cytometry. The purity of CD3 and CD45RA can reach 95%. However, the positive CD4 remained to be below 90%. PBS with only FBS was used and incubation was done in fridge. Has anyone encountered this situation? Do you have some suggestions for me to improve the purity? Thanks in advance!

How to plot MFI from FlowJo?

Ana Varela
Hi,
I need to plot MFI for different channels I used when FACS-characterizing P0-P4 cells. However, I am confused on how to do so. First, I basically selected in "Statistics" in Flow Jo the option "Median" to get MFI for the channels I'm interested in but im not sure if the value is given in % since some values are around 13.9 while others are approximately 124, for example. In addition, I am not sure on how should I organize or plot this data since I have never done this before. If someone could help me, I'd be grateful!

How does RBC lysis buffer lyse only RBC and no other cells?

Jitendra Kumar Shandilya
While performing staining for flowcytometry we need to lyse RBC. We usually use BD 1X RBC lysis buffer for 10-15 minutes.
My question are;
1. Does that buffer lyse only RBC not other cells?
2. If we increase incubation time by chance up to 40-60 minutes, would there be any bad effect on other leucocytes?
3. By what mechanism does this RBC lysis buffer work?
4. Are there any other buffers while lyse only RBC without affecting other leukocytes? As I used few other lab made solutions but they affect other cells as well.

Hi, I am trying to do in-vitro T cell differentiation from mouse naive CD4+CD62L+ T cells but there is something wrong that I cant figure out. I tried several times with different plates and antibodies but cells didn't proliferate at all. I coated the U-bottom nunc 96 well plate with 2ug/ml biolegend antiCD3e antibody (I tried with overnight 4 degree, 37degree or 2 hours 37 degree) and then I resuspended the cells in differentiating media that I prepared for Th1,Th2,Treg,Th17,Th22 with different antibodies. I am using complete media with 55mM b-merkaptoethanol, anti-CD28 concentration is 0.5 to 2 ug/ml. What could be the reason for cells are not proliferating or dying?

For CRISPR, does it matter if the guide RNA is looking for the antisense or sense strand?
Question

Malaika Gomes
So, I've used the CRISPR P 2.0 software to look up guide RNAs to use to delete a region in my gene's promoter. Past members of our lab were using one guide RNA taken straight from that website to make one primer, and another guide RNA but reverse complemented to make the other primer. However, does the orientation of the guide RNA matter ?

Do I have to use viability stain ?
Question

Asked 5th Apr, 2017
Benoit Brilland
Hello,
I am working on lymphocyte phenotype in Balb/C mice. After saphenous vein ponction I immediatly stain my cells for flow cytometry analysis (after ACK red blood cell lysis and FC block).
I use a cocktail of antibody (anti CD3, anti CD4, anti CD8, ..., and live/dead Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit [cat L34957]) for extracellular staining. Then I use permabilization/fixation kit and then FoxP3 intracellular staining [cat 12-5773-82].
I use live/dead stain as viability marker but I am surprised by "mortality" among T cells. When gating out dead cells, I get 5-10% T cells (in all blood cells). When I don't gate out dead cells, I get 15-30% T cells.
Surprisingly those dead cells are not double positive for CD4/CD8, nor they are for CD62L/CD44 (what I thought I would get with dead cells and their autofluorescence and non specific binding).
So my questions are :
- are my "dead cells" really dead ?
- do I have to use live/dead marker in my situation ?
Thank you for any kind of help !

Can I stain my cells with annexin V prior to the surface staining ?
Question

Asked 2nd Jun, 2016
Mateusz Adam Gregorczyk
Hi all!
I'm wondering if it is possible to stain my cells with annexin V before performing the surface staining. My surface staining might take up to 4 hours and I'm afraid that my cells might enter apoptosis during this time.
Any advice and suggestions woube be greatly appreciated.

The role of γδT cells in ulcerative colitis (UC) is well confirmed in experimental animals and demonstrated in many clinical observations. Recent investigations have indicated that UC is associated with several forms of immune imbalance, such as an imbalance between effector T cells and regulatory T cells. However, little is known about the cellula...
