Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor subfamily B member 2 (LILRB2), also known as ILT4, LIR2, monocyte/macrophage immunoglobulin-like receptor 10, MIR-10, and CD85d, belongs to the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LIR) family of transmembrane glycoproteins that negatively regulate immune cell activation.LILRB2 is expressed on both innate (monocytes, macrophages, basophils, and DCs) and adaptive (CD4+ T cells) immune cells and interacts with MHC-I on nucleated cells (unknown specific ligand). LILRB2 interacts with related ligands HLA-G, ANGPTLs, SEMA4A and CD1d in tumor microenvironment, resulting in myeloid cells promoting tumor growth and enhancing tumor immune escape. It has been shown pre-clinically that LILRB2 antagonism promotes macrophage maturation and activation. MK-4830 (Merck and Agenus) is an anti-LILRB2 fully human IgG4 monoclonal antibody, and phase II clinical studies have been initiated. In addition, IO-108, JTX-8064, and NGM707 are in phase I clinical studies.

Cell Resuscitation
1. Prewarm culture medium (DMEM + 10% FBS + 1μg/mL Puromycin) in a 37°C water bath.
2. Thaw the frozen vial in a 37°C water bath for 1-2 minutes.
3. Transfer the vial into biosafety cabinet, and wipe the surface with 70% ethanol.
4. Unscrew the top of the vial and transfer the cell suspension gently into a sterile centrifuge tube containing 9.0mL complete culture medium.
5. Spin at ~ 125 × g for 5-7 minutes at room temperature, and discard the supernatant without disturbing the pellet.
6. Resuspend cell pellet with the appropriate volume of complete medium and transfer the cell suspension into a T25 culture flask.
7. Incubate the flask at 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator.
8. Split saturated culture 1:3-1:6 every 3 days; seed out at about 1-3 × 105 cells/mL.
Cell Freezing
1. Prepare the freezing medium (70% DMEM + 20% FBS + 10% DMSO) fresh immediately before use.
2. Keep the freezing medium on ice and label cryovials.
3. Transfer cells to a sterile, conical centrifuge tube, and count the cells.
4. Centrifuge the cells at 250×g for 5 minutes at room temperature and carefully aspirate off the medium.
5. Resuspend the cells at a density of at least 3×106 cells/mL in chilled freezing medium.
6. Aliquot 1 mL of the cell suspension into each cryovial.
7. Freeze cells in the CoolCell freezing container overnight in a -80°C freezer.
8. Transfer vials to liquid nitrogen for long-term storage
