Beyond 40 fluorescent probes for deep phenotyping of blood mononuclear cells, using spectral technology

Résumé

The analytical capability of flow cytometry is crucial for differentiating the growing number of cell subsets found in human blood. This is important for accurate immunophenotyping of patients with few cells and a large number of parameters to monitor. Here, we present a 43-parameter panel to analyze peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy individuals using 41 fluorescence-labelled monoclonal antibodies, an autofluorescent channel, and a viability dye. We demonstrate minimal population distortions that lead to optimized population identification and reproducible results. We have applied an advanced approach in panel design, in selection of sample acquisition parameters and in data analysis. Appropriate autofluorescence identification and integration in the unmixing matrix, allowed for resolution of unspecific signals and increased dimensionality. Addition of one laser without assigned fluorochrome resulted in decreased fluorescence spill over and improved discrimination of cell subsets. It also increased the staining index when autofluorescence was integrated in the matrix. We conclude that spectral flow cytometry is a highly valuable tool for high-end immunophenotyping, and that fine-tuning of major experimental steps is key for taking advantage of its full capacity.
