The expanded lymphocytes were reconstituted and cultured for 18–24 h (37 °C, 5% CO2) in LM supplemented with IL-2 (80 IU/mL). The cells were harvested, pelleted, and resuspended in the corresponding fresh medium at a concentration of 4 × 106 cells/mL. Alternatively, the cells were supplemented with recombinant galectin-9 (20 μg/mL, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) 30 min before cell stimulation. Cultured PC-3 cells were rinsed with PBS, trypsinized, harvested, and resuspended in the corresponding LM medium at a concentration of 1 × 106 cells/mL. The suspensions (100 µL) of lymphocytes and fresh PC-3 cells in the corresponding LM medium were combined in a U-bottom 96-well plate (Nalgene), extensively resuspended and cultured for 1 h (4:1 ratio of lymphocytes and PC-3 cells). The cells were gently supplemented with brefeldin A (BioLegend) and cultured for 4 h. The cells were transferred to V-bottom 96-well plates (Nalgene) and stained with live/dead fixable stain (Aqua, Waltham, MA, USA), fixed, and permeabilized as described [39 (link)]. The fixed and permeabilized cells were stained with the following antibodies: CD3-PerCP-Cy5.5, CD4-PE-Cy7 (eBiosciences), CD8-Alexa Fluor 700 (Exbio), TNFα-APC, and IFNγ-PE (Becton Dickinson) for 30–60 min at 4 °C. The stained cells were washed with PBS/EDTA and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above.
For determination of cytokine release, the expanded lymphocytes were stimulated as described above with the exception that the cells were not supplemented with brefeldin A and the cells were stimulated for 20 h. After the stimulation, 150 µL of supernatant was recovered from the U-bottom wells. The supernatant was cryopreserved or directly analyzed. The contents of TNFα and IFNγ released into the supernatant were determined as the concentration of cytokines released by 1 × 106 cells/mL into the supernatant using Duo-Set ELISA (R&D Systems).

The EREG, Gal9, and C3 expression was assessed in the supernatants of MAP-infected MDMs collected at 7 days p. i. using quantitative sandwich ELISAs according to the manufacturer’s instructions (MyBioSource, San Diego, US). The sensitivity of the EREG, Gal9, and C3 ELISA kits is 5 pg/ml (detection range, 31.2-1.000 pg/ml), 0.1 ng/ml (detection range, 0.625-20 ng/ml), and 2 µg/ml (detection range, 15.6 μg/ml-500 μg/ml), respectively. Briefly, standards and samples (50 µl) were added in duplicate into a Microelisa Stripplate provided with each kit. One hundred microliters of horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibody were added to each well. After incubation for 60 min at 37°C in the dark, the plate was washed four times with 350 µl of wash solution and incubated with 50 µl of 3, 3′, 5, 5′-Tetramethylbenzidine for 15 min at 37°C in the dark. After adding 50 µl of stop solution into each well, the OD values were measured in an ELISA reader at 450 nm (Thermo Scientific Multiskan, US). We average the duplicate readings for each standard and sample and subtract the average OD of the blank. A standard curve was generated by plotting the mean OD values of each standard on the vertical axis and the corresponding concentration on the horizontal axis. The levels of EREG, Gal9, and C3 in each sample were interpolated from the standard curve. The correlations between the intracellular MAP load within MDMs at 2 h and 7 d p. i., and the quantification of EREG, Gal9, and C3 protein levels were analyzed using the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient (ρ) implemented in R 4.1.2. considering a coefficient with a P-value less than or equal to 0.05 as significant.

Immunohistochemistry was performed using our laboratory protocol described previously (8 (link),9 (link)). Briefly, 4-μm serial sections were deparaffinized and subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using 10 mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0) at 95°C for 20 min. The endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched using a 0.3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Sections were incubated with primary antibodies against LAG-3 (Clone D4G40, 1:100), TIM-3 (Clone D5D5R, 1:200), GAL-9 (Clone D9G40, 1:200), PD-1 (Clone D4W2J, 1:200), CD68 (Clone D4B9C, 1:500), CD8 (Clone D8A8Y, 1:200), and FOXP3 (Clone D2W8E, 1:200). All antibodies were obtained from Cell Signaling Technology (Boston, United states). All slides were stained using an automatic immunohistochemistry staining instrument (Bond Max, Leica Biosystems; Buffalo Grove, IL, United states) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Human tonsil tissues stained using the primary antibodies were used as positive controls; the same tissues with isotypematched immunoglobulins comprised the negative controls.
The tumors were distinguished from the stroma and TIIs using hematoxylin and eosin staining. The expression of LAG-3, TIM-3, GAL-9, PD-1, CD68, CD8, and FOXP3 in the TIIs was assessed independently by two pathologists (LJ. Z and SN. Y), who were blinded to clinical outcomes. Five representative fields were selected for each slide at ×40 magnification. The percentages of cells that stained positive for each marker were quantified in 5% increments of the overall tumor section. The density of the positive immune cells in the TIIs was classified using a semi-quantitative score as 0 (negative, <5%), 1 (sporadic, 5%–25%), 2 (moderate, 25%–50%), or 3 (strong positive, >50%).

HeLa cells stably expressing YFP-galectin-9 were imaged using live-cell microscopy for 8 h during treatment with lipoplex-formulated siGFP-1 at 2:4 pmol:µl ratio of siRNA to LF2000. Endosomal siRNA release was then automatically and manually detected in each cell. For manual event detection, each cell was observed frame by frame until a release event was visible or until the end of the acquisition. For event detection, both automated and automated combined with manual quality control, the procedure was performed as described above. De novo recruitment and colocalization of galectin-9 with siRNA-lipoplexes was then manually evaluated in all cells and the first galectin-9 positive event was recorded. Cells located partially outside the image border at the time of siRNA release or galectin-9 recruitment were excluded. For the manual and automated detection of cytosolic siRNA release, cells were evaluated up until the first detected event. To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the cytosolic release detection to correctly identify the first siRNA release event in an evaluated cell, observations were classified as follows: cytosolic release events detected within five frames before or after galectin-9 recruitment to the releasing lipoplex were considered true positive observations. If no cytosolic siRNA was detected even though galectin-9 was recruited to a visible lipoplex, the observation was considered false negative. Observations were classified as true negative if no cytosolic siRNA release was detected and no recruitment of galectin-9 to lipoplexes could be observed, and false positive if the cytosolic release was detected in the absence of observable galectin-9 recruitment to the releasing lipoplex within five frames before or after the detection. Manual quality control was then performed of all siRNA release events identified by the automated detection algorithm, providing the opportunity to correct false positive events, that were then reclassified as true negative observations. This approach is analogous to the manual quality control of release events identified in experiments evaluating d1-eGFP knockdown (without galectin-9 reference). Release detection sensitivity was calculated as all true positive events divided by the sum of true positive and false negative observations. Specificity was calculated as true negative observations divided by the sum of true negative and false positive events.
