Analysis of Human Natural Killer Cell Metabolism

In this paper, we describe a method to measure glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration in primary human Natural Killer (NK) cells isolated from peripheral blood, at rest or following IL15-induced activation. The protocol described could be easily extended to primary human NK cells activated by other cytokines or soluble...

A Brain Tumor/Organotypic Slice Co-culture System for Studying Tumor Microenvironment and Targeted Drug Therapies

Many types of human brain tumors are localized to specific regions within the brain and are difficult to grow in culture. This protocol addresses the role of tumor microenvironment and investigates new drug treatments by analyzing fluorescent primary brain tumor cells growing in an organotypic mouse brain slice.

Ex Vivo Expansion of Natural Killer Cells from Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

This video demonstrates a technique for the expansion of natural killer (NK) cells directly from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using a feeder cell line. PBMCs are co-cultured with genetically modified lymphoblastoid feeder cells expressing membrane-bound interleukin-21 (mIL-21), and the culture is supplemented with the cytokines interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-15 (IL-15). Together, this cocktail of ligands leads to the prolonged expansion of NK cells with high...

Enrichment and Characterization of the Tumor Immune and Non-immune Microenvironments in Established Subcutaneous Murine Tumors

Here we describe a method to separate and enrich components of the tumor immune and non-immune microenvironment in established subcutaneous tumors. This technique allows for the separate analysis of tumor immune infiltrate and non-immune tumor fractions which can permit comprehensive characterization of the tumor immune...

Generation of Natural Killer Cells from Human Expanded Potential Stem Cells

The present protocol shows how to differentiate CD3−/CD45+CD56+ cells with mild cytotoxicity from human expanded potential stem cells (hEPSCs) under both 3D and 2D culture conditions. This allows for routine phenotypical validation without the destruction of the complex microenvironment.
