Tumors were harvested and processed using Collagenase I and DNase I (Wako, Osaka, Japan). The resulting cell suspensions were clarified using 40-μm filters to prepare single cell suspensions, and single cells were suspended in PBS supplemented with 2% FBS. Splenocytes were hemolyzed and incubated with anti-CD16/32 2.4G2 (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) to reduce FcγR binding. Cell-surface antigens were stained with antibodies specific for CD8 (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA, clone 53-6.7), CD4 (BioLegend, clone GK1.5), CD45 (BioLegend, clone 30-F11), IA/IE (BD Bioscience, clone M5/114), CD11c (BD Bioscience, clone HL3), CD11b (BioLegend, clone M1/70), and F4/80 (BioLegend, clone BM8).
For intracellular staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) after cell surface staining and were stained with labeled antibodies against the intracellular molecules foxp3 (eBioscience, clone FJK-16s), glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1, Abcam, Cambridge, UK, clone EPR3915), and hexokinase II (HX2, Abcam, clone EPR20839).

Mouse whole blood was collected with 1.5% EDTA-2Na used as the anticoagulation agent, and red blood cells were eliminated by a lysing buffer (BD Pharmingen). Leukocyte cells and BMDCs of normal control mice or OSC-19 tumour-bearing mice were stained with CD11b-PE antibody (BD Pharmingen). For IL-13Rα2 and CD11b double staining, OSC-19 tumours grown at non-IR sites or pre-IR sites in nude mice were minced and enzymatically digested with 3 mg/ml Type VI collagenase and 2 U/ml hyaluronidase (SIGMA). They were further treated with 0.1 mg/ml DNase I (Wako) and 0.09% NH4Cl and strained through a 40 μm cell strainer. Single cells were incubated with IL-13Rα2-biotin (R&D systems) and CD11b-PE antibodies (BD Pharmingen), followed by Streptavidin-APC antibody (eBioscience). All samples were pre-incubated with Fc-block (BioLegend) prior to staining. Analysis was performed using MoFlo® Astrios (Beckman Coulter) and Summit Software ver. 4.3 (Beckman Coulter).

Mouse testicular cells are obtained by the following method (La Salle et al., 2009) with some modifications. Briefly, a C57BL/6J mouse at 20 days postpartum (dpp) is euthanized using CO2 gas, and testes are detunicated. The seminiferous tubules are placed in a 20 mL of KRB medium (120 mM NaCl, 4.8 mM KCl, 25.2 mM NaHCO3, 1.2 mM KH2PO4, 1.2 mM MgSO4•7H2O, 1.3 mM CaCl2, Pen/Strep (Gibco, 11548876), 11.1 mM D-glucose, essential amino acid (Gibco, 11130036), and nonessential amino acid (Gibco, 12084947), and containing collagenase type I (0.5 mg/mL, Wako, 035–17604), and incubated for 30 min at 32°C with shaking at 250 rpm. The seminiferous tubules are washed twice with a KRB medium. The tubules are further digested in 20 mL of fresh KRB medium containing Trypsin (0.5 mg/mL Wako, 207–19982) and DNase I (1 μg/mL, Wako, 314–08071) for 15 min at 32°C with shaking at 250 rpm to obtain a single-cell suspension. After a quick spin, cell pellets are washed twice with KRB medium containing 2% FBS and DNase I (1 μg/mL), and resuspended in 1× PBS (pH 6.8).

PCAs were prepared from neonatal C57BL/6J mice as described elsewhere [35 (link), 41 (link)]. Briefly, the isolated forebrain was minced and incubated with DNase I (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical) and trypsin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for dissociation. The dissociated tissues were suspended in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 (DMEM/F12; Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (PS; Thermo Fisher). The suspended cells were seeded in poly-l-lysine (PLL; ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA)-coated 75-mm2 flasks (10–15 × 106 cells/flask). The plated cells were cultured in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C. Every 8–12 days, the confluent cells were shaken for 10 min to separate them from microglial cells, released from the flasks with trypsin, and seeded onto non-coated flasks. These cells were seeded onto non-coated 8-well chamber slides (2.5 × 104 cells/well) and evaluated with immunocytochemistry for anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) antibody (Abcam).

Isolation of Intestinal Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were euthanized by intraperitoneal injection of a large excess of pentobarbital sodium. Isolated colons were cut, opened longitudinally and washed with excess PBS to remove stools and mucus, followed by incubation for 30 min at 37°C with vigorous shaking in Ca2+- and Mg2+-free Hanks balanced salt solution supplemented with 5 mM EDTA and 1 mM DTT to remove epithelial layer. Cells released from colons were subjected to 40% / 70% Percoll gradient centrifugation and the cells containing IELs in middle layer were harvested and used for experiments. To isolate lamina propria cells, the remaining colons after removing epithelial layer were chopped into little pieces with scalpel and digested for 60 min at 37°C with gentle shaking in RPMI1640 medium supplemented with 5% FBS, 0.5 mg/ml Collagenase IV (SIGMA) and 50 U/ml DNase I (Wako). Cells were subjected to 40% / 70% Percoll gradient centrifugation and the cells in middle layer were harvested and used for experiments.

At the first passage, CD 31-positive ECs were isolated using CD31 MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Tokyo, Japan), as described previously [9 (link)]. The cells were incubated in EGM, and all of the experiments were carried out using cells that had been passaged less than 6 times.

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.
