Nine time lapse videos illustrate many of the key findings. Video S1 illustrates the kinetics of T cell homing to a draining inguinal lymph node. Video S2 shows stochastic T cell repertoire scanning in the absence of OVA. Video S3 provides a side-by-side comparison of T cell motility in the presence and absence of antigen. Video S4 depicts early cognate interactions (1–3 h) between antigen-specific T cells and DCs in the draining lymph node of OVA-challenged mice. Video S5 shows T cells forming dynamic clusters on DC dendrites at later times (8 h) in OVA-challenged mice. Video S6 shows that clusters are less apparent in experiments with reduced amounts of OVA. Video S7 shows that OVA-specific T cells regain motility and move in “swarms” near DCs (16 h). Video S8 shows reduced T cell–DC interaction 24 h after adoptive transfer. Video S9 depicts T cell motility and proliferation 26 h after adoptive transfer. Online supplemental material is available at http://www.jem.org/cgi/content/full/jem.20041236/DC1.

The following antibodies were purchased from BD Biosciences: anti–mouse CD8-APC (Ly-2), anti–mouse CD44-FITC (Pgp-1, Ly-24), and B220-Cy (RA3–6B2). CD40 (1C10 or FGK45) were produced by hybridomas that were grown in serum-free conditions. Ova-specific CD8 T cells were detected by H-2Kb–specific tetramers containing the SIINFEKL peptide, either made as described previously (33 (link)) (a gift from Dr. Lefrancois, University of Connecticut Health Center, Farmington, CT) or purchased from Beckman Coulter.

To discriminate between CD8 T cells in tissue parenchyma versus tissue vasculature, i.v. injected Ab was used as previously described (28 (link)). Briefly, 3μg of anti-CD8α Ab (53-6.7, Biolegend, San Diego, CA) was injected i.v. and allowed to circulate for three minutes prior to mouse sacrifice.
Organs were harvested and digested as previously described (29 (link)). For isolation of small intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL), Peyer’s patches were removed, the small intestine was cut longitudinally and then laterally into small pieces. Pieces were incubated for 30 minutes with stirring at 37°C with 0.154mg/mL dithioerythritol (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in 10% HBSS/HEPES. Female reproductive tract (FRT), lung and salivary gland (SG) tissues were cut into small pieces in RPMI 1640 containing 5% FBS, 2 mM MgCl2, 2 mM CaCl2 and 0.5mg/mL type IV collagenase for FRT (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) or 100 U/mL type I collagenase for lung and SG (Worthington, Lakewood, NJ) and incubated for 1 hr at 37°C with stirring. After enzymatic digestion, the remaining tissue pieces were mechanically disrupted using a gentleMACs dissociator (Miltenyi Biotec, San Diego, CA). The liver was mechanically dissociated by pushing the tissue through a 70μm-cell strainer. Single cell suspensions of IEL, FRT, lung, liver and SG were further separated using a 44/67% Percoll (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Pittsburgh, PA) density gradient. Spleen and lymph nodes (LN) were dissociated mechanically. Splenocytes and blood were treated with ACK lysis buffer to lyse red blood cells.
The following antibodies were used for flow cytometry: anti-KLRG1 (2F1), anti-Eomes (Dan11ma), anti-T-bet (4B10), anti-CD44 (IM7), anti-CD122 (TM-b1), anti-CD27 (LG.7F9), anti-CD69 (H1.2F3) (all from eBioscience, San Diego, CA), anti-CD8α (53-6.7, eBioscience, Biolegend, San Diego, CA), anti-CD103 (M290), anti-CD25 (PC61), anti-Bcl-2 (Bcl-2/100) and anti-CD127 (SB/199) (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Cell viability was determined using Ghost DyeTM Red 780 (Tonbo Biosciences, San Diego, CA). Kb-SIINFEKL-specific CD8 T cells were identified using H-2Kb tetramers made in house containing the SIINFEKL peptide (New England Peptide, Gardener, MA). The BD Biosciences intracellular kit for cytokine staining and the eBioscience FoxP3 kit for transcription factor staining were used in accordance with manufacturer’s directions. Peptide stimulation was performed as previously described (30 (link)). Briefly, splenocytes were plated in RPMI 1640 containing 10% FBS, 1× NEAA, 2mM L-glutamine, 1mM sodium pyruvate, 1× penicillin/streptomycin and 0.05mM β-mercaptoethanol and incubated with 1ug/mL SIINFEKL peptide and 1ug/mL GolgiPlug (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) for four hours at 37°C. Cells were washed and stained with fixable LIVE/DEAD aqua dead cell stain (Life Technologies, San Diego, CA) before surface and intracellular staining. Samples were acquired on an LSRII flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA).

Mice in the naïve control group received no treatment for the duration of the experiment. Mice in the inhaled saline group were sensitized intraperitoneally with 200 μl saline on days 1 and 8. On days 15, 16, and 17 after initial sensitization with saline, mice were nebulized with saline for 30 min in a whole-body exposure chamber. Mice in the intranasal saline group were intraperitoneally sensitized as inhaled saline group and then intranasally instilled with 40 μl saline on days 15, 16, and 17. Mice in the inhaled OVA group were intraperitoneally sensitized on days 1 and 8 with 20 μg OVA (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) emulsified in 1 mg aluminum hydroxide (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) in a total volume of 200 μl. On days 15, 16, and 17 after initial sensitization with OVA, mice were administered aerosolized 5% (v/v) OVA by inhalation for 30 min in a whole-body exposure chamber. Mice in the intranasal OVA group were intraperitoneally sensitized as the inhaled OVA group and then intranasally instilled with 20 μg OVA on days 15, 16, and 17. For intranasal instillation, mice were anesthetized using inhaled anesthesia. Prior to instillation, isoflurane was delivered into induction chamber using small animal portable anesthesia systems (L-PAS-02, LMSKOREA, Inc., Seongnam, Korea) equipped with isoflurane vaporizer. And then, mice were exposed to 2.5% isoflurane delivered in O2 (2 L/min) within induction chamber until a sleep-like state was reached. Mice receiving isoflurane anesthesia were removed from the induction chamber and instillation was performed immediately on board. Intranasal administration of challenge dose (saline or 20 μg OVA diluted in 40 μl saline) was performed by pipetting onto the outer edge of nose of the mice. After instillation, mice moved, fully recovered and transferred to their cage.
Twenty-four hours after the last challenge with OVA, AHR were assessed. And 48 h after the last challenge with OVA, mice were euthanized with an overdose of isoflurane and continuously exposed until 1 min after breathing stops. The sample collections for analysis were performed in sacrificed animals. Lung inflammation, serum IgE production, and protein levels of inflammatory and epithelial cell-derived cytokines were assessed.

Oral tolerance was induced by continuously feeding animals with 8 mg/mL of OVA in the drinking water for 5 days. Control mice received only water. Three days after the last feeding, mice were immunized with 50 µg of OVA in complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) in the ventral flanks. In vitro recall responses were measured at day 10 after immunization. For this, splenocytes were stimulated with 4, 20, and 100 µg/mL of LPS-free OVA (antigen-specific stimulation) or 1 µg/mL of anti-CD3 (antigen non-specific stimulation as a control for proliferation), and proliferation was measured using 3H-thymidine incorporation. In some experiments, tolerance to OVA was measured by delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) by injecting 60 µg of OVA into the hind paw and measuring foot pad swelling 1, 2, and 3 days later.
