Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of GITR (CD357) expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. PBMC were cultured for 3 days in medium without (Unstimulated; Left Plot) or with Phytohemagglutinin-M (PHA-M Stimulated; 1.5% v/v; Right Plot). Cells were stained with APC Mouse Anti-Human CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 561841) and with either BD Horizon™ BB515 IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 564510; no staining, data not shown) or BD Horizon™ Mouse Anti-Human GITR (CD357) antibody (Cat. No. 567781/567782). BD Via-Probe™ Cell Viability 7-AAD Solution (Cat. No. 555815/555816) was added to cells right before analysis. The bivariate pseudocolor density plots showing the correlated expression of GITR (CD357) versus CD4 were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable (7-AAD-negative) human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of GITR (CD357) expression on human CD4+ peripheral blood lymphocytes. PBMC were stained with APC Mouse Anti-Human CD4 (Cat. No. 561841) and BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-Human CD25 (Cat. No. 562442) antibodies and with either BD Horizon™ BB515 IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 564510; dashed line histograms) or BD Horizon™ BB515 Mouse Anti-Human GITR (CD357) antibody (Cat. No. 567781/567782); solid line histograms). BD Via-Probe™ Cell Viability 7-AAD Solution was added to cells right before analysis. Histograms showing the expression of GITR (CD357) [or Ig Isotype control staining] were derived from CD4+CD25-negative (Left Plot) or CD4+CD25-bright positive (Right Plot) gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable (7-AAD negative) 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® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant™ Stain Buffer should be used anytime BD Horizon Brilliant™ dyes are used in a multicolor flow cytometry panel. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. When BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer is used in in the multicolor panel, it should also be used in the corresponding compensation controls for all dyes to achieve the most accurate compensation. For the most accurate compensation, compensation controls created with either cells or beads should be exposed to BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer for the same length of time as the corresponding multicolor panel. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794/566349) or the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer Plus (Cat. No. 566385).
For optimal results, it is recommended to perform 2 washes after staining with antibodies. Cells may be prepared, stained with antibodies and washed twice with wash buffer per established protocols for immunofluorescence staining, prior to acquisition on a flow cytometer. Performing fewer than the recommended wash steps may lead to increased spread of the negative population.

The V27-580 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to GITR (Glucocorticoid-Induced Tumor necrosis factor Receptor), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily that is designated TNFRSF18. In the human, GITR is expressed at low levels in peripheral blood T cells, bone marrow, thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes and is up-regulated upon antigen stimulation or by treatment with anti-CD3 plus anti-CD28. GITR is also reported to be constitutively expressed on Treg cells. GITR's ligand (GITRL) is a member of the TNF superfamily, is designated TNFSF18, and is expressed on antigen presenting cells. The GITR cytoplasmic domain has striking homology with the cytoplasmic domains of the co-stimulatory receptors CD137 (4-1BB), CD134 (OX40) and CD27. GITR signaling is mediated by signaling adaptors, TNFR-associated factors (TRAFs), that affect signaling pathways (eg, Erk, JNK, MAPK and NF-κB) to enhance T-cell survival and cytokine production. The effects of GITR signaling upon the dynamic and interconnected roles of effector and regulatory T lymphocytes in the immune response are under investigation.
