Monocytes were enriched from the bone marrow of WT and DKI mice as described above. Monocytes were seeded at a density of 1 x 105 cells/well in a 96-well plate in complete medium and were rested at 37°C for 30 min. The monocytes were stained with CD11b-FITC (N418), Ly6C-PE (HK1.4), and LIVE/DEAD Fixable Near-IR Dead Cell Stain Kit (ThermoFisher L34976) for 20 min at 37°C. Following surface staining, the monocytes were stimulated with 100 ng/mL GM-CSF (Peprotech 315-03) for 15 min at 37°C. The stimulated monocytes were then fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde in PBS at 37°C for 10 min. Following fixation, the monocytes were permeabilized with 90% ice cold methanol in PBS and were incubated at -20°C for 30 min. Monocytes were washed with staining buffer, then stained with pSTAT5-PE (BD Biosciences 47/Stat5 (pY694)) at room temperature for 30 min. The monocytes were washed and resuspended in staining buffer. Cells were analyzed on a BD LSRFortessa.

For each subject, blood was collected by venipuncture into 2 mL sodium heparin tubes at 0, 1, 6, and 12 h post upadacitinib or tofacitinib dose. Recombinant human IL-6 (400 ng/ml), or IL-7 (400 ng/ml), (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) was added to blood and incubated for 10 min at 37°C. Surface antibodies were added (CD14-APC, CD3-fluorescein isothiocyanate [FITC]; BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) and incubated on ice for an additional 20 min. Samples were lysed (Lyse/Fix, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) and incubated for 10 min at 37°C. Samples were washed and stored at − 70°C. For intracellular staining, samples were thawed, washed, and resuspended in BD Perm buffer III (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) on ice for 30 min. Samples were washed and stained with pSTAT5-PE or pSTAT3-PE (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) for 60 min at room temperature and then analyzed immediately on a FACSCalibur. Geometric means were determined using FlowJo analysis software. Percent inhibition of relevant STAT phosphorylation was calculated as follows: (1-(Induction of pSTAT at 1 h – baseline pSTAT at 0 h) / (Induction of pSTAT at 0 h – baseline pSTAT at 0 h)*100.

BM mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) were isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation (750 g × for 5 min at 20°C; density, 1.077; Tianjin Hao Yang Biological Products Technology Co., Ltd., Tianjin, China). The samples were stimulated with BMMNCs (2–3×106cells) G-CSF (100 ng/ml) or SCF (100 ng/ml) to induce the phosphorylation of STAT5 and fixed with crosslinking reagent (2% paraformaldehyde; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). To stabilize the phosphorylation, the cells were fixed using 2% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 10 min at 4°C. The monoclonal antibodies CD34-PerCP and CD59-FITC were then added to the samples. After incubating at 4°C for 30 min, RBCs in the samples were lysed with 2 ml RBC lysing solution. The cells were mixed with 1.0 ml of FACS™ permeabilizing solution (BD Biosciences) for 10 min in the dark, and then incubated with STAT5-PE (cat no., 562077; 1:100 dilution) and p-STAT5-PE (cat no., 129010; 1:100 dilution) mouse monoclonal antibodies (BD Biosciences) at 4°C for 30 min. The cells were then washed twice with PBS. Information about ≥100,000 cells was acquired for each sample by FCM.

On day −1, NK cells and Tregs from the same donor were sorted as described above in section 2.7. Tregs were rested in cRPMI overnight without stimulation or cytokine treatment. NK cells were activated with IL-12 (1 ng/mL) and IL-18 (1 ng/mL) overnight. On day 0, Tregs and activated NK cells were washed and co-cultured in cRPMI at 1:0, 1:1, 1:10 and 0:1 Treg to NK ratios with 50 U/mL of IL-2 at 37°C for 15 minutes. Cells were fixed with 3% formaldehyde (Polysciences, Inc.) for 5 minutes at 37°C followed by 5 minutes on ice. Cells were then transferred to FACS tubes, washed, and permeabilized by resuspending in 500 μL ice-cold 90% methanol. Cells were stained with antibodies against pSTAT5-PE (pY694, BD Biosciences), CD56-BV605 (HCD56; BioLegend), CD4-Pacific Blue (RPA-T4; BioLegend), and CD25-APC (BC96; BioLegend) for 30 minutes on ice. Samples were collected on a BD LSRFortessa and analyzed using FlowJo software.

For each subject, blood samples were collected by venipuncture into 2‐mL sodium heparin tubes before and at 1, 6, and 12 hours after administration of upadacitinib (day 1 in Study 1; days 1 and 14 in Study 2, Part 1; days 3 and 28 of Study 2, Part 2), tofacitinib (days 1 and 14 in Study 2, Part 3), or placebo (day 1 in Study 1; days 1 and 14 in Study 2, Part 1; days 3 and 28 of Study 2, Part 2). The blood samples were frozen and shipped to the AbbVie Bioresearch Center (Worcester, Massachusetts) for processing and analysis. IL‐6–induced pSTAT3 and IL‐7–induced pSTAT5 were assayed as previously described.19 Briefly, recombinant human IL‐6 or IL‐7 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, Minnesota) was added to blood followed by addition of surface antibodies (CD14‐APC, CD3‐fluorescein isothiocyanate; BD Biosciences, San Jose, California), sample lysis, wash, and resuspension in BD Perm buffer III (BD Biosciences). Samples were then washed and stained with pSTAT5‐PE or pSTAT3‐PE (BD Biosciences) and analyzed on a FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences). The percent change was calculated as a change in pSTAT3 and pSTAT5 at 1, 6, and 12 hours following drug administration divided by the baseline measurement at t = 0 for each subject multiplied by 100.

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.
