Abstract

This video describes the protocol for isolating HSPCs from the bone marrow and sorting them using a fluorescent activated cell sorting technique, which is a method to obtain singly-sorted HSPCs. We culture these sorted cells to obtain HSPC clones.

Protocol

1. HSPC Isolation, Sorting, and Culture Spin down at 1–2 x 107 mononuclear cells for 5 min at 350 x g and resuspend in 50 μL of FACS buffer. Resuspend the cell pellet in 100 μL of anti-CD3 staining solution (1:100 dilution of anti-CD antibody in FACS buffer). Transfer the cells to a microcentrifuge tube. NOTE: When sorting with >2 x 107 cells, increase the antibody mix and FACS buffer volumes accordingly. …
