Two-color flow cytometric analysis of IL-13 expression in stimulated human lymphocytes. An enriched preparation of human peripheral blood CD4+ T cells was stimulated with immobilized Purified NA/LE Mouse Anti-Human CD3 (Cat. No. 555329; 10 μg/ml for plate coating) and soluble Purified NA/LE Mouse Anti-Human CD28 (Cat. No. 555725; 2 μg/ml) antibodies and Recombinant Human IL-2 (Cat. No. 554603; 10 ng/ml) and Human IL-4 (Cat. No. 554605; 25 ng/ml) proteins for 2 days. The stimulated cells were washed and cultured in medium containing IL-2 and IL-4 for another 3 days. Finally, the cells were harvested and restimulated for 5 hr with Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-Acetate (PMA; Sigma, Cat. No. P-8139; 50 ng/ml) and Ionomycin (Sigma, Cat. No. I-0634; 1 μg/ml) in the presence of BD GolgiStop™ Protein Transport Inhibitor (containing Monensin) (Cat. No. 554724). The cells were harvested and washed with BD Pharmingen™ Stain Buffer (FBS) (Cat. No. 554656) and fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655). The cells were then washed and stained in BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723) with BD Horizon™ BUV395 Mouse Anti-Human CD4 antibody (Cat No. 564724) and with either BD Horizon™ R718 Rat IgG1 κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 566948; Left Plot) or BD Horizon™ R718 Mouse Anti-Human IL-13 antibody (Cat. No. 567094/567247; Right Plot) using BD Biosciences Intracellular Cytokine Staining protocol. A pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of IL-13 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD4 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact stimulated lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software.

Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
BD™ CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD CompBead to ensure that BD CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

The JES10-5A2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to human interleukin-13, IL-13. IL-13 is produced by activated T cells, mast cells and NK cells. IL-13 regulates IgE production by B cells and can suppress the cytotoxic activity of macrophages and their production of inflammatory mediators. The immunogen used to produce the JES10-5A2 hybridoma was COS-expressed recombinant human IL-13. This is a neutralizing antibody.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon Red 718, which has been developed exclusively for BD Biosciences as a better alternative to Alexa Fluor® 700. BD Horizon Red 718 can be excited by the red laser (628 – 640 nm) and, with an Em Max around 718 nm, it can be detected using a 730/45 nm filter. Due to similar excitation and emission properties, we do not recommend using R718 in combination with APC-R700 or Alexa Fluor® 700.
