Abstract:
Objective To establish a flow cytometry-based assay for the detection of monocyte-me-diated antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity ( ADCC ) .Methods P815 cells double stained with PKH26 and carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester ( CFSE ) were used as target cells and coated with P 815 specific antibodies to form antigen-antibody complexes .The peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated as effector cells and co-cultured with the antigen-antibody complexes .The CD3-CD14+PKH26+CFSE-cell population were gated by flow cytometry .Optimized effector/target cell ratio and incubation time for killing assay were identified .Monocyte-mediated ADCC in 23 patients with chronic HCV infection and 22 healthy subjects were analyzed .Results The monocyte-mediated ADCC could be evaluated through analyzing the CD3-CD14+PKH26+CFSE-cells with flow cytometry .The optimized effector/target cell ratio was 10 ∶1 and the optimized time for incubation was 4 h.Monocyte-mediated ADCC was inhibited in patients with chronic HCV infection as compared with healthy subjects (P=0.009).Conclusion A flow cytometry-based assay for the detection of monocyte-mediated ADCC was established , which could be used as a fast , sensitive and safety method for the evaluation of monocyte-mediated ADCC during viral infections and the research and de-velopment of drugs .
