Popis: | Anti-CD4 or anti-CD8α Ab–mediated depletion strategies are widely used to determine the role of T cell subsets. However, surface expression of CD4 and CD8α is not limited to T cells and occurs on other leukocyte populations as well. Using both unbiased t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding of flow cytometry data and conventional gating strategies, we assessed the impact of anti-CD4 and anti-CD8α Ab–mediated depletion on non–T cell populations in mice. Our results show that anti-CD4 and anti-CD8α Ab injections not only resulted in depletion of T cells but also led to depletion of specific dendritic cell subsets in a dose-dependent manner. Importantly, the extent of this effect varied between mock- and virus-infected mice. We also demonstrate the importance of using a second, noncompeting Ab (clone CT-CD8α) to detect CD8α+ cells following depletion with anti-CD8α Ab clone 2.43. Our study provides a necessary caution to carefully consider the effects on nontarget cells when using Ab injections for leukocyte depletion in all experimental conditions. |
