The airways were washed three times with 400μl of PBS and
bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was collected. Following centrifugation of the BAL
fluid supernatants were stored at -80°C for further analysis and cells
were resuspended in 500μl of complete RPMI media (10% FCS, 2mM
L-glutamine, 100U/ml penicillin/streptomycin) (GIBCO, Life Technologies). For
lung cell isolation, the left lung lobes were cut into small pieces and digested
in complete media supplemented with 0.15mg/ml collagenase (Type D; Roche
Diagnostics) and 25μg/ml DNase (Type 1; Roche Diagnostics) for 1h at
37°C. Lung homogenate obtained was then filtered through a 70μm
sieve (BD Bioscience), washed, and resuspended in 1ml of complete media.
Erylysis was performed on 200μl whole blood and leukocytes were washed

Mice were euthanized with carbon dioxide. Lungs were perfused with PBS trough the right ventricle until no blood was visible in the tissue. Lungs were removed, minced and placed in a digestion buffer containing collagenase type 4 (1.6 mg/ml; Roche), DNase type 1 (50 units/ml; Roche) and Flavoperidol (1 μM, Sigma-Aldrich) in RPMI 1640 medium. Lungs were incubated at 37 °C for 15 min while on a rotator. Red blood cells were lysed using RBC lysis buffer (eBioscience) at 4 °C for a 5 min incubation. The obtained cell suspension was filtered using a 70-micron filter, washed and cells were resuspended in PBS. Cells were then incubated with anti-Fc blocking mAb (anti CD16/32, clone 93, BioLegend) and viability dye Zombie Aqua (BioLegend) for 10 min.

After the removal of the left lobe of mice lung, the tissue was chopped and digested with 15 mg/mL collagenase (Type D; Roche Diagnostics) and 25 μg/mL DNase (Type 1; Roche Diagnostics) in 4 mL RPMI + 10% CFS for 1 h at 37 °C with agitation. Lung was then passed through a 70 μm sieve (BD Bioscience). The resulting cell suspension was washed, red blood cells were lysed, and the remaining cells were resuspended in 1 mL RPMI. To analyze cell populations, the cell suspension was labeled using monoclonal antibodies anti-CD45 (clone 30-F11) (1:100) anti-Ly6G (clone 1A8) (1:400), anti-F4/80 (clone BM8) (1:100), anti-CCR5 (HM-CCR5 (7A4)) (1:200) from eBioscience for 30 min. All data was acquired by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur; BD Biosciences PharMingen) and analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star, Inc., Ashland, OR, USA).

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.
