FOR IMMUNOCYTOCHEMICAL STAINING OF SINGLE-CELL PREPARATIONS This procedure describes the immunoenzymatic technique of staining cytokines within individual cells that are immobilized on microscopic slides via adherence (adherent slides) or centrifugation (cytospins). Page 1 of 2559073 Rev. 2 ADHESION SLIDES 1. Harvest cells and wash them twice in PBS using centrifugation (400 x g for 5 min) to remove residual protein. 2. Adjust the cell concentration at 4-5x10^6 cells/mL in PBS. 3. Place 20 μL of the cell suspension in each well of the adhesion slides and let them adhere at room temperature (RT) for 20 min. Please note that the slides should be washed in PBS at RT for 5 min before transferring the cells. 4. Fix cells on slides using fixation buffer for 15 min at RT. 5. Wash slides 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 6. Block slides with PBS supplemented with 1 % (w/v) BSA (Sigma, Cat. #A43-78) for 30 min at RT or 10 min at 37 °C. 7. Wash slides 2X in PBS and proceed with staining or air dry them and store them at -80 °C for future use. 8. Incubate slides with 20 μL of 1 % goat serum and PBS with 0.1 % (w/v) saponin for 30 min at RT. 9. Wash slides 2X with PBS with 5 min incubations. 10. Block endogenous peroxidase activity with Endogenous Peroxidase Blocking Buffer (20 μL/well) for 10 min at RT. 11. Wash 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 12. Incubate each well with Avidin (20 μL/well) for 15 min. 13. Wash 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 14. Incubate each well with Biotin (20 μL/well) for 15 min. 15. Wash 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 16. Incubate each well for 1 hr at RT with 20 μL of purified cytokine-specific antibody or appropriate immunoglobulin isotype control diluted in Pharmingen's IHC Diluent Buffer supplemented with saponin. 17. Wash slides 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 18. Incubate each well with 20 μL of a biotinylated secondary antibody diluted in IHC Diluent Buffer for 30 min at RT. 19. Wash 2X in PBS with 5 min incubations. 20. Apply 20 μL of Streptavidin-HRP (BD Cat. No. 550946) to each well on slides and incubate for 30 min at RT. 21. Wash slides 2X with PBS with 5 minutes incubations. 22. Incubate with DAB Substrate as per the product insert for less than 5 min at RT. 23. Stop the development of the color reaction by washing with PBS. 24. The slides are subsequently mounted in short-term storage mounding medium. CYTOSPINS 1. Assemble the Cytospin's sample chamber (e.g. Cytospin 3, Shandon, UK or comparable centrifuge), filter card, slide and cytospin racks according to manufacturer's specifications. 2. Load 40 μL of approximately 1 x 10^6 cells to each sample chamber. 3. Spin slides at 600 rpm for 2 min. 4. Take slides out of the cytospin rack and place them on a staining rack. 5. For fixation and staining please follow the steps 4 through 24 specified above for staining cells on adhesion slides.
