Abstract
This 33-color panel delineates immune phenotypes of the major lymphocyte subsets in murine tissues. The panel identifies surface markers for cell activation, differentiation, and exhaustion, and chemokine receptors, in CD4 T cells, CD8 T cells, γδ T cells, NK cells, NKT cells and B cells in spleen and liver. This panel was designed to include only surface markers to avoid the need for fixation and permeabilization steps. Cells were analyzed on a full spectrum flow cytometer, 5-Laser Aurora system (Cytek Biosciences). This panel enables in-depth immunophenotyping of murine lymphocytes in immune and non-immune tissues of mice. It could be a tool for systematic analysis of immune cell response to infectious diseases and immune disorders.
