Figure Lengend Snippet: A The viability of hPD-L1 MC38 cells following treatment with the indicated concentrations of TER for 72 h. B CD8 + T cells were isolated from tumors of hPD-1 knock-in mice bearing hPD-L1 MC38 tumors. These tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cells were co-cultured with hPD-L1 MC38 cells as target cells in the presence of TER for 72 h. Cell viability measured using the CCK assay is depicted. C PD-L1 expression in hPD-L1 MC38 cells, as assessed by western blot analysis using protein lysates from co-culture conditions. GAPDH was used as a loading control. D The levels of immune-related factors, including GrB, IL-2, and IFN-γ, measured in the co-culture supernatant by ELISA. * <0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, and **** p < 0.0001 compared with the respective control.
Article Snippet: Recombinant hPD-L1 (#71104, BPS Bioscience) was coated onto 96-well plates (Corning Inc., New York, NY, USA) at a concentration of 1 mg/mL in PBS and incubated overnight.
