This video demonstrates the generation and isolation of T lymphocyte-derived microparticles, LMPs, from T lymphocytes following treatment with actinomycin-D.
Protocol
1. LMPs Production and Characterization NOTE: To prevent contamination, ensure that all materials used in this experiment are sterile or autoclaved. Perform all steps at RT in a biological safety cabinet under sterile conditions, unless otherwise indicated. Stimulation and Collection of MPs Thaw an aliquot of 10 million CEM T cells in a 37 °C water bath. Dilute in 10 ml pre-warmed serum-free hematopoietic medium such as X-VIVO…
