  • Erythrophagocytosis (Viral Immunity & Pathogenesis Group, the Université Catholique de Louvain)
    The erythrophagocytosis assay is performed to compare the phagocytic rate with and without anti-eythrocyte antibody in either macrophages from control animals or virus-infected counterparts.

  • Lymphocyte Transformation (Donis-Keller lab)
    Lymphocytes are transformed to establish cell lines. Mononuclear cells (lymphocytes) from anticoagulated venous blood are isolated by layering onto histopaque. During centrifugation, erythrocytes and granulocytes are aggregated by ficoll and rapidly settle to the bottom of the tube; lymphocytes and other mononuclear cells remain at the plasma-histopaque interface. Erythrocyte contamination is neglible. Most extraneous platelets are removed by low speed centrifugation during the washing steps.

  • Macrophage Depletion by Clodronate (Viral Immunity & Pathogenesis Group, the Université Catholique de Louvain)
    Clodronate (dichloromethylene diphosphonate) is used for treatment of osteolytic diseases and osteoporosis Its effect is due to inhibittion of the function of osteoclasts. This drug is also taken up by macrophages and rapidly causes apoptosis of these cells.

  • Monocytes/Macrophages: Enrichment of PBMCs with Monocytes (Methods.info)
    This protocol is used to reduce the costs of the cell sorting with MACS reagents. The cell suspension obtained after this protocol contains 40-70% monocytes. This cell suspension is than used for positive or negative MACS separation.

  • Preparation of Lymphocyte Cell Pellet for Storage (Donis-Keller lab)
    Following propagation to 1 X 108 cells, lymphoblastoid cells are conveniently stored at -80 degrees C to preserve the high molecular weight DNA in the cells until the DNA is purified. This procedure describes the steps required to harvest and freeze the cells for long term storage.
