Tandem dyes will fluoresce in all three channels that they are composed of Degraded fluorochromes couple with fluorochromes attached to other antibodies and create weird populations

Cytof panel • Mass cytometry uses heavy-metal tagged antibodies • Very little spillover between parameters • ~135 channels • Can detect ~40 parameters in a single cell suspension • Samples can be ‘barcoded’ allowing batches of up to 20 samples at a time • Reduces sample to sample variation as all samples are stained together in one tube • Reduces cost of reagents and of machine time • 170 samples remaining, 110 expected to be of sufficient quality • CD11c, CD4, CD86, CD38, CXCR3, CD24, CD19, CD20, CD80, CD14, CD141, CD123, IgD, CD56, CD161, HLADR, CD57, CD3, CCR6, CCR4, CD8, CD45, CD16, CCR7, CD27, CD127, CD146, CCR2, CD10, CD5, CD45RA, CD25, CD122, CXCR5
Cytof analysis • SPADE • Spanning-tree Progression Analysis of Density-normalized events • Unsupervised identification of populations based on marker expression • Not subject to ‘gater-bias’ • Traditional guided manual gating • CITRUS • Cluster identification, characterization and regression • Unsupervised and supervised machine learning pipeline to automatically find biomarkers that are correlated with an outcome group
Cytof samples • To date • Controls : 15 • DEP-MED+ : 10 • DEP+MED- : 21 • DEP+MED+ : 25 • Interpret the following with caution!! • Expected • Controls : 17 • DEP-MED+ : 16 • DEP+MED- : 25 • DEP+MED+ : 46 • Secondary cohort 135

P2X7 inhibition assays • Thawed cells were rested overnight • +/- P2X7 inhibitor (Janssen) • Stimulated with bzATP + LPS • Measured IL1b production by MSD • Samples with less than 70% viability removed +/- caspase 1 inhibitor to determine if the IL1b measured is realised through an inflammasome-mediated process or if it is just pro-IL1b released when the cells die
Percentage IL1b secretion relative to positive control (no inhibitor) 80 60 % IL-1b secretion 40 20 0
Non-stimulated (baseline) bzATP + LPS + caspase 1 inhibitor (pro IL-1b from cell death) bzATP + LPS + caspase1 inhibitor + P2X7 inhibitor (should be close to baseline) IL-1b (pg/ml) bzATP + LPS bzATP + LPS + P2X7 inhibitor
9 of 86 IL-1b (pg/ml)
LPS challenge and cytokine production • Thawed cells rested overnight • Stimulated with LPS for 4 hours (or non-stimulated baseline control) • Cytokine production measured by MSD • Samples with no post-LPS challenge cytokine induction in any cytokine were removed • Samples with less than 70% viability removed • CXCL9, IL6R, RANTES, Fractalkine, IL-10, IL-12, IL1b, IL-6, IL-8, TNFa, IL17-A, IL18, IP10, M-CSF, MCP-1, MIP1a, MIP1b, SDF1a
LPS – baseline Log transformed No significant differences between any of the groups for any cytokines

RSD initiates brain-to-immune outflow via SNS and HPA axis activation. Enhanced myelopoeisis leads to production of primed and GC-resistant/insensitive myeloid cells. Hypothesis : increased CCR2+ classical monocyte proportions in the blood of DEP+ than controls CCR2+ Increased IL1b gene exp.
