Overview

Easily and efficiently isolate highly purified CD4+CD127lowCD49d- T cells from fresh human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by immunomagnetic negative selection, with the EasySep? Human CD4+CD127lowCD49d- Regulatory T Cell Enrichment Kit. Widely used in published research for more than 20 years, EasySep? combines the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the simplicity of a column-free magnetic system.

In this EasySep? negative selection procedure, unwanted cells are labeled with antibody complexes and magnetic particles. The magnetically labeled cells are then separated from the untouched desired CD4+CD127lowCD49d- T cells by using an EasySep? magnet and simply pouring or pipetting the desired cells into a new tube. Following magnetic cell isolation, the desired CD4+CD127lowCD49d- T cells are ready for downstream applications such as flow cytometry, culture, or DNA/RNA extraction.

Data Figures

Typical EasySep? Human CD4+CD127lowCD49d- Regulatory T Cell Enrichment Profile

Figure 1. Typical EasySep? Human CD4+CD127lowCD49d- Regulatory T Cell Enrichment Profile

Starting with fresh PBMCs, the CD3+CD4+CD127lowCD49d-CD25+FOXP3+ cell content of the enriched fraction typically ranges from 57.4 - 87.4%. Donor to donor variability is unavoidable and may affect the purity of the enriched fraction. In the example above, the purities of the start and enriched fractions are 1.84% and 84.1%, respectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can EasySep™ be used for either positive or negative selection?

Yes. The EasySep™ kits use either a negative selection approach by targeting and removing unwanted cells or a positive selection approach targeting desired cells. Depletion kits are also available for the removal of cells with a specific undesired marker (e.g. GlyA).

How does the separation work?

Magnetic particles are crosslinked to cells using Tetrameric Antibody Complexes (TAC). When placed in the EasySep™ Magnet, labeled cells migrate to the wall of the tube. The unlabeled cells are then poured off into a separate fraction.

Which columns do I use?

The EasySep™ procedure is column-free. That's right - no columns!

How can I analyze the purity of my enriched sample?

The Product Information Sheet provided with each EasySep™ kit contains detailed staining information.

Can EasySep™ separations be automated?

Yes. RoboSep™, the fully automated cell separator, automates all EasySep™ labeling and cell separation steps.

Can EasySep™ be used to isolate rare cells?

Yes. We recommend a cell concentration of 2x108 cells/mL and a minimum working volume of 100 µL. Samples containing 2x107 cells or fewer should be suspended in 100 µL of buffer.

Are the EasySep™ magnetic particles FACS-compatible?

Yes, the EasySep™ particles are flow cytometry-compatible, as they are very uniform in size and about 5000X smaller than other commercially available magnetic beads used with column-free systems.

Can the EasySep™ magnetic particles be removed after enrichment?

No, but due to the small size of these particles, they will not interfere with downstream applications.

Can I alter the separation time in the magnet?

Yes; however, this may impact the kit's performance. The provided EasySep™ protocols have already been optimized to balance purity, recovery and time spent on the isolation.

For positive selection, can I perform more than 3 separations to increase purity?

Yes, the purity of targeted cells will increase with additional rounds of separations; however, cell recovery will decrease.

How does the binding of the EasySep™ magnetic particle affect the cells? is the function of positively selected cells altered by the bound particles?

Hundreds of publications have used cells selected with EasySep™ positive selection kits for functional studies. Our in-house experiments also confirm that selected cells are not functionally altered by the EasySep™ magnetic particles.

If particle binding is a key concern, we offer two options for negative selection. The EasySep™ negative selection kits can isolate untouched cells with comparable purities, while RosetteSep™ can isolate untouched cells directly from whole blood without using particles or magnets.

A Transendocytosis Model of CTLA-4 Function Predicts Its Suppressive Behavior on Regulatory T Cells Hou TZ et al. The Journal of Immunology 2015

Abstract

Manipulation of the CD28/CTLA-4 pathway is at the heart of a number of immunomodulatory approaches used in both autoimmunity and cancer. Although it is clear that CTLA-4 is a critical regulator of T cell responses, the immunological contexts in which CTLA-4 controls immune responses are not well defined. In this study, we show that whereas CD80/CD86-dependent activation of resting human T cells caused extensive T cell proliferation and robust CTLA-4 expression, in this context CTLA-4 blocking Abs had no impact on the response. In contrast, in settings where CTLA-4(+) cells were present as regulators?
