Human PBMC (10,000 cells / well) were incubated for 16 hours in the absence or presence of either 1X Cell Activation Cocktail (without Brefeldin A) (Cat. No. 423301) or 1X Cell Activation Cocktail (with Brefeldin A) (Cat. No. 423303). BioLegend’s Cell Activaton Cocktail contains PMA and ionomycin at the optimized concentration. Brefeldin A functions to inhibit intracellular protein transport, as a result, it inhibits secretion of cytokines such as Granzyme B. The number of cells secreting Human Granzyme B was analyzed by FluoroSpot and quantified using an image cytometer equipped with the required fluorescence filter.

Granzyme B is a member of the granzyme family of serine proteases found specifically in granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells. Perforin/granzyme pathway is a molecular weapon for the defense against virus-infected and malignantly transformed host cells. Perforin protein creates a pore in the membrane of targets cells and facilitate the entry of granzymes. This results in the translocation of Granzyme B into the nucleus and initiation of apoptosis. Other granzymes have also been implicated in apoptosis, but Granzyme B appears to be the most potent. Human Granzyme B is a potential immunoconjugate and an important facilitator in chronic inflammation and wound healing.
BioLegend’s FluoroSpot MAX™ Deluxe Set contains pre-optimized essential reagents, buffers, and solutions for the detection of human Granzyme B secreting cells. In this assay, anti-human Granzyme B capture antibodies are coated on a clear-bottom microplate. Cells (stimulated or unstimulated) are added to the wells and incubated, allowing secreted Granzyme B to bind to nearby capture antibodies. After incubation, cells are removed, and biotinylated detection antibodies are added followed by Streptavidin-PE. The resulting red spots represent the “footprint” of an individual Granzyme B-secreting cell, allowing for precise quantification of cytokine-producing cells in the sample.
