Our research aims at understanding how some CD4 T cells become autoreactive in melanoma patients treated with check point inhibitors. CD4 T cells are usually identified as CD3+ CD4+ cells. In this experiment, we used anti ICOS antibodies to identify ICOS+ CD4 T cells.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Flow Cytometry

Sample

Unstimulated healthy donor's PBMCs

Primary Incubation

Surface staining with anti- ICOS APC Cy7 at 1/200 and CD4, anti CD3, etc... (20' at 4°C, in the dark).

Blocking Agent

none

Secondary Incubation

Staining with L/D dye (20' at 4°C, in the dark).

Tertiary Incubation

Cells were fixed and permeabilized with a commercial kit to counterstain for cytokines.

Detection

Red laser on Symphony cytometer

Results Summary

Memory CD4+ T cells (CD45RO+) express higher amounts of ICOS than naive CD4+ T cells (CD45RA+).

Summary

The Good

The antibody is specific and reliable.

The Bad

The staining is not very bright. A FMO is needed to set the positive gate

The Bottom Line

Usable, but need some controls
