CellXVivo Human Treg Cell Differentiation Kit
CellXVivo Human Treg Cell Differentiation Kit Summary
For the differentiation of Human Regulatory T (Treg) Cells from a preparation of naïve CD4+ T cells.
Key Benefits
- Contains high quality bioactive proteins
- Yields a highly enriched population of FoxP3+CD25+ Treg cells
- Provides optimized reagents for inducing Tregs from CD4+ T cells
- Involves validated and straightforward procedures
- Does not require specialized instrumentation
Why Differentiate Treg Cells In Vitro?
Forkhead Box P3 (FoxP3)+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are a suppressive subset of CD4+ T cells that function to antagonize immune responses. Treg cells have the capacity to prevent potentially damaging autoimmune and protective immune responses, so the number of Treg cells is a crucial determinant of the regulatory burden on the immune system. In vitro differentiation of Treg cells from the larger naïve CD4+ T cell population provides increased numbers of Treg cells to facilitate downstream research.
This kit contains the following optimized proteins and reagents to drive efficient differentiation of naïve CD4+ T cells into FoxP3+CD25+ Treg cells.
- Mouse Anti-Human CD3 Antibody
- Human Treg Reagent 1
- Human Treg Reagent 2
- Human Treg Reagent 3
- Human Treg Reagent 4
- Reconstitution Buffer 1
- Reconstitution Buffer 2
- Wash Buffer (20X)
Provides sufficient reagents for the differentiation of one 24-well plate.
Stability and Storage
Store the unopened kit at 2-8 °C. After opening the kit, the Mouse Anti-Human CD3 Antibody and Human Treg Reagents 1-4 may be stored at 2-8 °C under sterile conditions for up to 30 days or at -20 °C to -70 °C in a manual defrost freezer for up to 3 months. Reconstitution Buffer 1, Reconstitution Buffer 2, and 20X Wash Buffer may be stored under sterile conditions for up to 3 months at 2-8 °C. Storage conditions are valid if used within the expiration date of the kit.

Scientific Data
Differentiation of Human CD4+ T Cells into Treg Cells Confirmed by FoxP3 and CD25 Expression. Human peripheral blood naïve CD4+T cells were incubated with reagents included in the Human Treg Cell Differentiation Kit for 5 days. Cells were fixed, permeabilized, and stained using the FlowX™Human Regulatory T Cell Kit (Catalog # FMC021). Cells were imaged using flow cytometry. Quadrants were set based on isotope-stained samples.
Assay Procedure
Refer to the product datasheet for complete product details.
Briefly, mature human CD4+ T cells can be differentiated into Tregs using the following procedure:
- Coat a plate with Mouse Anti-Human CD3 Antibody
- Isolate naïve CD4+ T cells from Human PBMCs
- Culture naïve CD4+ T cells in Human Treg Differentiation Media for 5 days
- Verify differentiation into Treg cells by flow cytometry
