Summary

我们描述了在显微镜使用,以确定在静止神经节苷脂和激活的人幼稚CD4 + T细胞的细胞膜表达和定位一个标准抗体染色方案。还使用<40,000个细胞,不需要额外的低输入RNA试剂描述的实时PCR实验。

Abstract

在悬浮液中和对幼稚CD4 + T细胞的活化本文描述的方法及其在盖玻片共聚焦显微镜分析依从允许参与CD4 + T细胞活化神经节苷脂的空间定位和可视化,即补体表达分析实验,如流式细胞仪,西印迹或实时PCR。神经节苷脂表达通过流式细胞仪,并通过显微镜它们的细胞定位的量化可以通过使用抗神经节苷脂抗体以高亲和力和特异性来获得。然而,在悬浮细胞的适当处理涉及培养板的处理,以促进对荧光或共聚焦显微镜获得所需的必要的粘附性。在这项工作中,我们描述了幼稚 CD4 + T细胞活化期间确定GD3和GD2神经节苷脂表达并与TCR共定位的协议。此外,真正的-T使用<40,000个细胞IME PCR实验为GD3和GM2 / GD2合酶基因的测定中描述,这表明基因分析实验可以低数量的细胞,无需额外的低输入的RNA试剂盒来进行。

Introduction

的CD4 + T细胞协调通过其效应子功能由抗原呈递细胞1活化后的免疫应答。被激活期间调制的细胞机制的研究允许洞察免疫功能的一基本过程。然而,因为它们在血液周2代表细胞的非常小的群体幼稚CD4 + T细胞的研究可能是复杂的。

通过荧光显微镜几个报告已经研究参与CD4 + T细胞活化的不同分子,主要关联至质膜3蛋白的定位。神经节苷脂含唾液酸鞘糖脂,虽然他们已经在他们丰富,其他细胞等免疫细胞的神经细胞被广泛研究,也表达了与生物学相关职能4,5神经节苷脂。我们以前报道THA人幼稚CD4 + T细胞的活化有所述α2,8唾液酸转移酶ST8Sia 1(GD3合酶)和GM2 / GD2合酶的上调在t,诱导GD2的显著表面neoexpression和GD3神经节苷脂6的上调。在免疫细胞GD3,GD2和其他神经节苷脂的进一步研究是必要的,以补充免疫功能的蛋白质为基础的局部视图。

通常,神经节苷脂表达的研究是基于技术如薄层色谱法(TLC)7,但该技术不允许神经节苷脂的空间定位在质膜或在亚细胞区室,限制生物分析。

在这项工作中,我们描述了在人幼稚CD4 + T细胞和PBMC中抗CD3 /抗CD28活化后GD3和GD2神经节苷脂的抗体介导的识别和定位的协议。有了这个协议,我就也有可能以分析神经节苷脂的基因和分子表达在低数量在悬浮细胞,以获得高质量的图像6,考虑淋巴细胞的小尺寸(9微米)。

Protocol

与知情同意和炫酷德Investigaciòn连接DinámicaCelular-自治大学德尔斯卡德莫雷洛斯生物伦理委员会批准获得从健康男性献血者外周血。 1.分离人幼稚CD4 + T细胞活化收集2毫升从通过知情同意健康人供体衍生的外周血,并用2毫升无菌PBS-EDTA的稀(1×磷酸盐缓冲盐水(PBS),2毫摩尔EDTA,pH 7.4)中。关于3毫升蔗糖溶液的顶端缓慢加入稀释的血液与1.077密度如前所述8…

Representative Results

在这个手稿中描述的协议使得培养良好的质量和附着静息和活化的人幼稚CD4 + T细胞( 图1)。活化的CD4 + T细胞显示出相比于静止状态( 图1A)的特征的增殖曲线( 图1B)。的CD25迟活化标志是评价在通过共聚焦显微镜( 图1C)观察到72小时的有效激活是有用的。的CD69标记当前通过流式细胞仪或显微镜用作?…

Discussion

所述协议可以用于本地化神经节苷脂或蛋白质中 CD4 + T细胞或其它免疫细胞( 例如 ,PMBCs, 图5)由少数细胞起始的细胞悬浮液。因为T细胞和非粘附性的小尺寸的,收购的信息差或低质量的荧光显微图像的结果,如果该细胞不正确地附着。

该协议具有良好质量的共聚焦显微镜分析相结合是对使用技术如薄层色谱法检测神经节苷脂的重要?…
