After cell viability staining with ZombieDye NIR (Biolegend, CA, USA), cell suspensions were stained in PBS 1 × 5% heat‐inactivated FBS (Gibco, USA) with the following antibodies: CD3e (clone 145‐2c11), CD4 (clone RM4‐5), CD11b (clone M1/70), CD11c (clone N418), CD25 (clone PC61), CD45.1 (clone A20), CD45.2 (clone 104), CD206 (clone C068C2), I‐A/I‐E (clone M5/114.15.2), Ly‐6C (clone HK1.4), Ly‐6G (clone 1A8), NK1.1 (clone PK136), Nrp1 (clone 3E12), all from Biolegend, CA, USA. Surface staining was performed for 30 min at 4°C. Intracellular staining was performed with anti‐Foxp3 (clone FJK‐16s) and the Fixation/Permeabilization Staining Kit (all from eBioscience, CA, USA), following manufacturer's instruction. For cytokine expression analysis, cells were activated with 50 ng/ml PMA (Sigma) and 1 μg/ml Ionomycin (Sigma) in RPMI containing 10% FBS and Brefeldin‐A (eBioscience, CA) for 4 h. Cells were washed, stained for surface markers, and treated with the Fixation/Permeabilization Staining Kit (all from eBioscience, CA, USA), following manufacturer's instructions. Intracellular cytokine staining was performed with the following antibodies: IFN‐γ (clone XMG1.2), IL‐17A (clone TC11‐18H10.1, both from Biolegend). Cells were analysed on FACSCanto II (BD Biosciences, USA) or FACS‐sorted in a FACSAria II (BD Biosciences, USA). Data analysis was performed on FlowJo software (CA, USA).

Single-cell suspensions were recovered from spleens and lymph nodes by passing through a 70 µm nylon mesh. Erythrocytes were lysed with ammonium chloride buffer and collected cells were washed and counted using a hemocytometer. One million cells were suspended in PBS containing 0.1% azide and 2% FBS in 96-well plates with the following fluorochrome-tagged antibodies CD3, CD4, CD19, B220, Foxp3, IL-10, CXCR3, and CCR6. Antibodies were purchased from eBioscience. Anti-LAP Ab is purchased Biolegend. Intracellular Foxp3 and IL-10 in lymphocytes were measured using a fixation / permeabilization staining kit (eBioscience). All samples were run on an Accuri flow cytometer (Accuri cytometers Inc.) or LSRII (Becton Dickinson) and analyzed using Flow Jo analysis software (Tree Star Inc.).

Single-cell suspensions were obtained from cervical lymph nodes that drain periodontal tissues, and spleens using 70 μm cell strainers (Sigma-Aldrich) rinsed-out with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS). For cytokine detection, 2–4 × 106 cells were incubated for 4 h in RPMI -1640 (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Sigma), Brefeldin A (eBioscience), 50 ng/ml PMA (Sigma), and 1 μg/ml Ionomycin (Sigma). Cells were then washed with PBS and stained with the zombie UV™ Fixable Viability Kit (Biolegend) for 30 min in the dark. The extracellular staining was performed in PBS containing 5% FBS, using the following antibodies: anti-CD4 (GK1.5, Biolegend) and CD25 (PC61, Biolegend), for 30 min at 4 °C in the dark. The intracellular staining was done using a Fixation/Permeabilization staining kit following the manufacturer instructions (eBioscience) and using the following antibodies: anti-Foxp3 (MF-14, Biolegend), Rorγt (Q21-559, eBiosciences), and IL-17A (9B10, Biolegend). Cells were analyzed on a BD FACSCanto cytometer (BD Biosciences) using a sequential gating strategy according to the FSC/SSC and SSC/SSC parameters, live/dead staining, and CD4/CD25 markers. Data analysis was completed using the FlowJo software (version 10.6.2). For each animal, the experiments were performed separately.

The method of mouse euthanasia was described previously. Single cells from the spleen were suspended in RPMI 1640 culture medium (HyClone, Logan, UT, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) and Cell Stimulation Cocktail (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) and then cultured in 6-well plates for 5 hours in a 37°C/5% CO2 incubator.
Lymphocytes were separated from the spleen by passing through a 70 μm nylon mesh. Erythrocytes were lysed with ammonium chloride buffer, after which the remaining cells were washed and counted using a hemocytometer. One million cells were suspended in staining buffer with the following fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies: CD4-FITC (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), CD25-APC (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), IL-4-PECy7 (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), IFN-γ-PE (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), and Foxp3-PE (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Intracellular Foxp3, IL-4, and IFN-γ within lymphocytes were stained using a fixation/permeabilization staining kit (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA). All samples were analyzed using a FACSCanto II flow cytometer (BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and analyzed using Flow Jo analysis software (Tree Star Inc.).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
