Advances In Flow cytometry Amina Kariminia Ph.D. Oncology Lab, Child & Family Research Institute, Department of Pediatrics, Faculty of Medicine University of British Columbia ICIA 2014 Milad Tower, Tehran
Outlines • A glance to multi-color flow cytometry • Tregs in whole blood sample • Kinetic of NFkB phosphorylation in pre B-cell leukemia • Monitoring immuno-suprressor drugs • Multi-color flow cytometry for normal human B-cell sub-populations • MIFlowCyt • Introducing Cy-TOF: mass-cytometry
Types of controls • Instrument set up control • PMT voltage settings • Compensation • Gating controls • Isotype controls • FMO controls • Biological controls • Unstimulated samples • Healthy donors
Fluorescence Minus One is not always an ideal control FMO FMO quadrant copy/pasted CD4- quadrant setting
No FRET with proper panel of conjugated Abs Gal-Ser tetramer CD3
Flow cytometry of rare populations • Minimal Residual Disease • GFP • PBL stem cells • BM stem cells • Tetramers: Ag specific T cells
Rare population & Flow cytometryPractical Considerations • Number of events should be increased for statistical accuracy 200,000-1,000,000 • Proper controls • Proper instrument setting
Intracellular staining Cytokine & Phospho protein
Intracellular staining • Cytokines • Type of stimulator • Time point • Type of protein transport inhibitor • Level of production • Background level • Type of Fix/perm • Color selection
Intracellular staining • TH1/2/17 • Frozen PBMCs from healthy donors • PMA/I stimulation for 6 hr , CO2 incubator • In presence of monensin • 6 color staining • BD fix/perm • 500,000 cells acquired
