Flow cytometry has been used to accurately monitor cell events that indicate the spatio-temporal state of a bioreactor culture. The introduction of process analytical technology (PAT) has led to process improvements using real-time or semi real-time monitoring systems. Integration of flow cytometry into an automated scheme for improved process monitoring can benefit PAT in bioreactor-based biopharmaceutical productions by establishing optimum process conditions and better quality protocols. Herein, we provide detailed protocols for establishing an automated flow cytometry system that can be used to investigate and monitor cell growth, viability, cell size, and cell cycle data. A method is described for the use of such a system primarily focused on CHO cell culture, although it is foreseen the information gathered from automated flow cytometry can be applied to a variety of cell lines to address both PAT requirements and gain further understanding of complex biological systems.

Endothelial-specific knockout of the scramblase TMEM16F impairs in vivo clot formation.
Shock
January 2025
Pharmacology, University of Vermont, Burlington, VT.
Objective: Loss of function of the phospholipid scramblase (PLS) TMEM16F results in Scott Syndrome, a hereditary bleeding disorder generally attributed to intrinsic platelet dysfunction. The role of TMEM16F in endothelial cells, however, is not well understood. We sought to test the hypothesis that endothelial TMEM16F contributes to hemostasis by measuring bleeding time and venous clotting in endothelial-specific knockout (ECKO) mice.

J Infect Dis

Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: The association between bacterial vaginosis (BV) and increased HIV acquisition risk may be related to concentrations of HIV-susceptible immune cells in the cervix.
Methods: Participants (31 with BV and 30 with normal microbiota) underwent cervical biopsy at a single visit. Immune cells were quantified and sorted using flow cytometry (N=55), localization assessed by immunofluorescence (N=16), and function determined by bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of live CD45+ cells (N=21).
MAIT Cell-Mediated Immune Mechanisms of Dialysis-Induced Peritoneal Fibrosis and Therapeutic Targeting.
J Am Soc Nephrol
January 2025
Nephrology Division, Department of Medicine, the Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, 510630, China.
Background: Peritoneal fibrosis is a serious complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) and abdominal surgeries, yet effective treatments remain elusive. Given the known roles of mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells in immune responses and fibrotic diseases, we investigated their involvement in PD-induced peritoneal fibrosis to identify potential therapeutic targets.
Methods: We employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and flow cytometry to characterize the activation and function of peritoneal MAIT cells in patients undergoing long-term PD.
Enhanced ZBTB10 expression induced by betulinic acid inhibits gastric cancer progression by inactivating the ARRDC3/ITGB4/PI3K/AKT pathway.
Cell Oncol (Dordr)

Division of Gastrointestinal Surgery Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510080, China.
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with most patients diagnosed at advanced stages due to the absence of reliable early detection biomarkers.
Methods: RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify the differentially expressed genes between GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues. CCK8, EdU, colony formation, transwell, flow cytometry and xenograft assays were adopted to explore the biological function of ZBTB10 and betulinic acid (BA) in GC progression.
CAMK2D and Complement Factor I-Involved Calcium/Calmodulin Signaling Modulates Sodium Iodate-Induced Mouse Retinal Degeneration.
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
January 2025
School of Graduate, Dalian Medical University, Dalian City, China.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CAMKII) δ subtypes (CAMK2D) on sodium iodate (NaIO3)-induced retinal degeneration in mice.
Methods: Bioinformatics analysis and Western blot experiments were used to screen the significantly differentially expressed genes in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) disease. CAMK2D knockdown and overexpression models were constructed by lentivirus (LV) infection of adult retinal pigment epithelial cell line-19 (ARPE-19) cells in vitro.
