In vitro CD8 T cell stimulatory capacity of DC
Laboratory protocolPurified CD8 T cells using MACS cell separation were co-cultured with electroporated DC. After several stimulations, the CD8 T cells become evaluated on their cytokine secretion, cytotoxicity and % of antigen specific T cells.
Protocol Steps:
-
MACS cell purification
CD8 T cells are purified using MACS cell separation.
-
electroporation
Dendritic cells are electroporated.
-
Coculture
Purified CD8 T cells using MACS cell separation are co-cultured with electroporated DC.
-
Stimulation of cells
This step is repeated several times to do several stimulations.
-
Evaluation
The CD8 T cells become evaluated on their cytokine secretion, cytotoxicity and % of antigen specific T cells.
