Figure Lengend Snippet: Analysis of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer-associated parameters. Proliferation status of CFSE-labeled MDA-MB-231/MCF-7 breast cancer cells following 24-h incubation with PBMC alone, and with the addition of CTLA-4 or PD-1 inhibitors ( a ). Cell cycle status of MDA-MB-231/MCF-7 breast cancer cells following 24-h incubation with PBMC alone, and with the addition of CTLA-4 or PD-1 inhibitors, based on the frequency of cancer cells in G1- (upper graph) and S-phase (lower graph) ( b ). Cytotoxic effects of PBMC alone, and with the addition of CTLA-4 or PD-1 inhibitors, on MDA-MB-231/MCF-7 breast cancer cells following 24-h incubation, based on the activity of LDH in supernatants ( c ) ( n = 10). Evaluation of viable cancer cells based on dead cells exclusion with 7AAD ( d ). Asterisks above individual cancer cell line columns show the level of significance with colors indicating whether the difference is reported when the specific column is compared to cancer cells alone (black) or co-cultured with PBMC (light grey) (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001). Moreover, brackets with significance demonstrated are applied when there was a difference in response between MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells.

Article Snippet: Additionally, the experimental layout included MDA-MB-231 of MCF-7 co-cultured with PBMC in the presence of 3 µg/mL anti-CTLA-4 (clone AS32; monoclonal IgG1; company provided reactivity to the extracellular domain of the human CTLA-4) (anti-CTLA-4/-CD152, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) or 3 µg/mL anti-PD-1 (polyclonal IgG; company provided reactivity to the extracellular domain of the human PD-1) (anti-PD-1/-CD279, R&D Systems) antibodies, and wells with cancer cells alone, cancer cells with 25 ng/mL of colcemid (negative control for proliferation) (Colcemid, Biowest, Nuaille, France) and PBMC alone.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Evaluation of CTLA-4, PD-1, PD-L1, CD80, and CD86 immune checkpoint proteins on the studied cells. Acquired data included frequency of cells expressing selected markers and mean expression (MFI) on single cells, analyzed within MDA-MB-231/MCF-7 cancer cells ( n = 8) ( a ) and lymphocytes including CD4+, CD8+, and the total pool of lymphocytes ( n = 7) ( b ). The first two rows demonstrate significant differences between MDA-MB-231/MCF-7 or different lymphocyte subsets within each of the immune checkpoint proteins tested. Left column, rows 3–4, demonstrate the profile of immune checkpoint proteins within MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, respectively. In the right column, rows 3–5, differences between studied checkpoint proteins are indicated for all studied lymphocyte subsets separately (statistically significant differences are indicated with asterisks) (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001).

Changes in frequency of CTLA-4+ and PD-1+ cells within CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes ( a ), expression of these markers presented as mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) ( b ), and percentage of CTLA-4+ or PD-1+ CD4+ and CD8+ cells within total pool of lymphocytes ( c ) ( n = 8).

Figure Lengend Snippet: ICAM-1, CD137L, and PDL-1 are all expressed on activated feline ASCs; however, CD137L and PDL-1 do not mediate MSC-T cell adhesion. Expression of a ICAM-1, b CD137L, and c PDL-1 ligands on activated feline ASCs. Gray histogram indicated background fluorescence of unstained samples. d Percentage of remaining fluorescence intensity from CMFDA-labeled PBMCs after removal of non-adherent cells from static adhesion assay after the addition of CD137/CD137L and PD-1/PDL-1 blocking antibodies. Data is normalized to 100% on a standard MLR condition for comparability. Fluorescent images of static adhesion assay demonstrating adherent lymphocytes to ASCs from e , h non-activated MLR, f , i stimulated MLR with ConA, and g , j stimulated MLR with ConA and addition of CD137/CD137L and PD-1/PDL-1 blocking antibodies respectively. Scale bar = 400 μm. Representative flow analysis images in a – c from 3 independent experiments. Data gathered in d from 5 independent experiments

Article Snippet: In some experiments, blocking antibodies to ICAM 1 (anti-human CD54, clone MEM-111, Thermo Fisher Scientific), LFA-1 (anti-human clone R7.1, eBioscience), CD137 (anti-mouse clone 17B5, Bio X Cell), CD137L (anti-mouse clone TKS-1, Bio X Cell), PD-1 (anti-human PD-1, polyclonal goat IgG, R&D systems), or PDL-1 (anti-human PDL-1, polyclonal goat IgG, R&D systems) were added to determine which ligands mediated PBMC-ASC adhesion.
