CellXVivo Human Treg Cell Differentiation Kit Summary

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.

 

Kit Contents

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

Flow Cytometry Differentiation of Human CD4+ T Cells into Treg Cells Confirmed by FoxP3 and CD25 Expression. View Larger

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 FlowXHuman 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

Procedure Overview
  1. Coat wells of a 24-well plate with Mouse Anti-Human CD3 Antibody.
  2. Isolate PBMCs from human blood.
  3. Isolate human naïve CD4+ T cells from PBMCs (e.g., using magnetic cell selection).
  4. Perform a cell count.
  5. Suspend 1 - 2 x 105 naïve CD4+ T cells/mL in Human Treg Differentiation Media.
  6. Culture the cells on plates pre-coated with CD3 antibody for 5 days.
  7. Verify Treg cell differentiation by analyzing marker expression using flow cytometry.
  8. Mature Treg cells are now ready for further downstream applications.
