Spleen and lymph node cells were purified by forcing tissue through 40 μm mesh into complete RPMI media (Gibco) containing 6% serum. PE-specific B cells were enriched as previously described (Pape et al., 2011 (link); Taylor et al., 2012b (link)). To enrich plasma cells, cell suspensions were made from bone marrow in PBS containing 1 mM EDTA and 2% serum. Anti-CD138-APC (BD Biosciences) and anti-APC microbeads (Militenyi Biotec) were used for enrichment with magnetized LS columns. In figure 3, APC-specific cells were enriched by negative selection using anti-CD4-biotin, anti-CD8-biotin, anti-Gr1-biotin, and anti-Ter119-biotin (eBioscience), streptavidin microbeads (Militenyi Biotec), and magnetized LS columns. Following column-based enrichment, samples were processed for flow cytometry. Cell counts from column-bound and flow-through samples were assessed using AccuCheck counting beads (Invitrogen) and cell numbers from both fractions were evaluated.

The lung and BALF cell samples were harvested at 6 days post infection from the mice immunized and challenged with A/Nanchang/H3N2 virus. The isolated lung and BALF cells were in vitro culture-stimulated with 5 µg/ml of M2e peptide and/or stalk protein with Golgi stopper (2 µg/mL). After 5 h culture, the cells were stained with mouse anti-CD3-PacificBlue (300x dilution, cat no: 100214, clone 17A2, BioLegend), anti-CD4-biotin (300x dilution, cat no: 13-0042-85, clone RM4-5, eBioscience), streptavidin-PE/Cy5 (300x dilution, cat no: 15-4317-82, eBioscience), and anti-CD8-FITC (300x dilution, cat no: MA5-16759, clone 53–6.7, eBiosciences), followed by fixation and permeabilization using a Cytofix/Cytoperm kit (10x dilution, cat no: 554715, BD Biosciences) and then, staining of intracellular cytokine using IFN-γ mAb (anti-mouse IFN-γ-PE, 200x dilution, cat no: 505808, clone XMG1.2, BioLegend). The IFN-γ+ T-cells were acquired by Becton-Dickinson LSR-II/Fortessa flow cytometer (BD) and analyzed by a sequential lymphocyte gating strategy (Supplementary Fig. S10) using FlowJo software (FlowJo V10, Tree Star, Inc.)45 .

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.
