Abstract
This 27-color flow cytometry antibody panel allows broad immune-profiling of major leukocyte subsets in human whole blood (WB). It includes lineage markers to identify myeloid and lymphoid cell populations including granulocytes, monocytes, myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs), natural killer (NK) cells, NKT-like cells, B cells, conventional CD4 and CD8 T cells, γδ T cells, mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells and innate lymphoid cells (ILC). To further characterize each of these populations, markers defining stages of cell differentiation (CCR7, CD27, CD45RA, CD127, CD57), cytotoxic potential (perforin, granzyme B) and cell activation/proliferation (HLA-DR, CD38, Ki-67) were included. This panel was developed for quantifying absolute counts and phenotyping major leukocyte populations in cryopreserved, fixed WB collected from participants enrolled in large multi-site tuberculosis (TB) vaccine clinical trials. This antibody panel can be applied to profile major leukocyte subsets in other sample types such as fresh WB or peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with only minor additional optimization.
