Partial Bone Marrow Ablation for Chimera

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow (BM) chimera was established as previously described19 (link). For BM transplantation, BM recipient male mice (6–8 weeks old) were injected intraperitoneally with busulfan. The dose included a 1:1 solution of DMSO and deionized water (30 mg/kg/100 μl) once daily for 2 days resulting in partial ablation of the bone marrow19 (link). Alternative approach of BM ablation using whole body irradiation, results in systemic toxicities. Moreover, irradiation resulted in inflammation of skin. To circumvent these issues, a widely used myelo-supressive approach for partial bone marrow ablation using busulfan was selected. Forty  eight  hours after the last dose of busulfan, donor BM cells isolated from femur were injected to recipient mice via tail vein injection (100 μl) to recipient mice. Engraftment in recipient mice was allowed to take place over a duration of 4 weeks after which engraftment was ascertained by determining the presence of GFP cells in the BM and the blood. The study utilized two types of recipient mice: (i) C57BL/6 obtained from Envigo laboratories and (ii) B6 Thy1.1 (Jackson# 000406) with CD90.1 allele.

C57Bl/6 (B6), B6.CD45.1, B6.Thy1.1, B6.Nr4a1eGFP (Nur77GFP), B6.CD80/CD86 KO, IL-15Ra KO, CD11c-Cre-GFP, I-AB-flox, CD4 KO and B6.MHC II were obtained from the Jackson Laboratory. B6.TCRα/β KO mice were obtained from R.Welsh (UMass Chan), Y-linked B6.OT-II mice from L.Bradley (The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA) and were originally published by F.Carbone’s group 47 (link), BALB/c.HNT from D. Lo 48 (link) (The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA), IFNAR KO from J.Sprent (Garvan Institute), CD11cTg.H2-Ab1−/− mice from T.Laufer originally and all have been bred and maintained at the UMass Chan animal facility. Mice were at least 8 weeks old prior to use, controls were age and sex-matched, both female and male mice were used where possible. Experimental animal procedures were done in accordance with UMass Chan Animal Care and Use Committee guidelines.

Rag1−/−, Rorcgfp/gfp, Rorc-cre, Cd4-cre, Rosa26LSL-YFP/+, and B6-Thy1.1 mice were purchased from Jackson laboratory. Rag2−/−Il2rg−/ mouse was purchased from Taconic Biosciences. Smarca4flox/flox(Smarca4f/f) mouse was generated previously.43 (link)Rag1−/−Smarca4f/f mice were crossed to Rag1−/−Smarca4f/fRorc-cre mice to generate littermate Rag1−/Smarca4f/f and Rag1−/−Smarca4ΔILC3 mice, which were used for experiments in this study. Littermate Rag1−/−Smarca4f/f and Rag1−/Smarca4ΔILC3 mice were kept co-housed after weaning and during experiments. And for cases in which Rag1−/−Smarca4f/f and Rag1/−Smarca4ΔILC3 from different litters were used for experiments, they were gender/age matched and co-housed for more than 2 weeks. For mice of other genotypes used in this study, Brg1-deficient mice and control mice were littermate controlled and co-housed. Both male and female mice were used in this study. All mice were on C57BL/6 background and maintained in specific pathogen free facilities at Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health, Chinese Academy of Sciences. All mice experiments were performed in compliance with the guide for the care and use of laboratory animals, approved by the institutional biomedical research ethics committee of the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

C57BL/6J (B6), C57BL/6-Tg (UBC-GFP)30Scha/J (ubiquitin-GFP), Tg(CAG-ECFP)CK6Nagy/J (actin-ECFP), B6.129S2(C)-Itgaetm1Cmp/J (CD103KO), B6.Cg-Tg(Itgax-Venus)1Mnz/J, and B6 Thy1.1 mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory. B6 CD45.1 mice were purchased from Charles River Laboratories. All mice were maintained in specific pathogen free conditions at the University of Minnesota. iFABP-OVA, P14/CD45.1, and OT-I/CD45.1 mice were bred and maintained in house. Kaede mice were a generous gift from Dr. Kristin Hogquist (University of Minnesota). P14 and OT-I reporter mice were generated by crossing the TCR Tg mice with ubiquitin-GFP or actin-ECFP mice. P14-CFP+ CD103−/− mice were generated by crossing P14-CFP+ mice to P14+ CD103−/− mice. Kaede B6 mice were crossed to OT-I mice to generate OT-I/Kaede reporter mice (Tomura et al., 2008 ). Adult male and female adult mice ranging from 10–32 weeks of age were used in experiments. All mice were housed under standard conditions in animal facilities and used in accordance with the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees guidelines at the University of Minnesota.

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.
