Optimal timing and facilitator for RV transduction to CD8+ T cells. (a,b) Wild-type P14 cells were transduced with empty-GFP RV, at the indicated time after in vitro stimulation in the presence of Polybrene (a), or on day 1 in the absence or presence of Polybrene (4 μg/ml) or RetroNectin (coated at 20 or 100 μg/ml) using six-well plates with or without tissue culture treatment (b), and analyzed for GFP expression 1 d after RV transduction. Plots were gated on live P14 cells. (a) RV transduction efficiency to P14 cells peaks at 24 h after in vitro stimulation. (b) RetroNectin showed better RV transduction efficiency as compared with Polybrene. Data are representative of two independent experiments (duplicate to triplicate per condition).
