A2058 (CRL-11147) and A375 (CRL-1619) melanoma cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection and cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (Wisent) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (American Type Culture Collection) in 5% CO2 according to the supplied guidelines. Mycoplasma contamination was tested biweekly. Transient transfections were performed using polyethyleneimine (PEI) as described previously (14 (link)). Briefly, 1.5 μg total plasmid DNA was diluted in 50 μl Opti-MEM, 5 μl of 1 mg/ml PEI was added, and the mixture was incubated for 25 to 30 min at room temperature. The DNA–PEI mix was added to cells in 1 ml of Opti-MEM and left for 5 h under normal culture conditions. At the end of 5 h, the media were replaced with 2 ml of the appropriate culture medium. siRNA-mediated knockdown was performed as previously described (42 (link)) using Dharmafect1 (PerkinElmer) and the following siRNA duplexes: FMNL2 siRNA Duplex1 (IDT; hs.Ri.FMNL2.13.1); FMNL2 siRNA duplex2 (IDThs.Ri.FMNL2.13.2); IRTKS duplex1 (IDT, hs.Ri.BAIAP2L1.13.1); IRTKS duplex2 (IDT, hs.Ri.BAIAP2L1.13.2); and IRSp53 duplex1 (IDT, hs.Ri.BAIAP2.13.1).

Human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD, USA). Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Wisent, Shanghai, China) containing 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS; Hyclone, South Logan, UT, USA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (GIBCO BRL, Grand Island, NY, USA) was used to culture HK-2 cells in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 at 37°C. To establish an LPS (L4516-1MG; Sigma-Aldrich, Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) stimulation for cell culture, HK-2 cells were incubated with increasing concentrations (0 mg, 0.1 mg, 1.0 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg) of LPS for 24 h or treated with 1.0 mg LPS for 0 h, 6 h, 12 h, 18 h, and 24 h).

Murine embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (Wisent, Canada) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Wisent) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Cells were maintained in 95% air and 5% CO2 at 37 °C. Generation of primary WT and NLRX1-KO MEFs has been described previously (5 (link)). WT and NLRX1-KO MEF transformed cell lines were generated using the SV40 large T antigen. In brief, WT and NLRX1-KO MEFs were transduced with purified SV40 large T antigen LentifectTM Lentiviral Particles (GeneCopoeia) for 24 h, and puromycin was added to select cells that were positive for the SV40 large T antigen. Cells positive for the SV40 large T antigen were verified by measuring the expression of the SV40 large T antigen by quantitative PCR (qPCR). Similarly, WT and NLRX1-KO SV40-Tschopp MEFs were also monitored for SV40 expression and grown in similar conditions as described above.

HEK293T cells were purchased from ATCC and were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Wisent) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Pen-Strep; GIBCO). 16HBE cells (a generous gift from Dr. D.C. Gruenert, University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA) and CFF-16HBEge W1282X-CFTR cells (from Cystic Fibrosis Foundation) were cultured in Eagle’s minimum essential medium (Wisent) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% Pen-Strep (GIBCO). We seeded 500,000 cells for transfection in 2 mL of media in six-well plates using Lipofectamine 3000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cells were transfected with 3,000 ng of a Cas9 and guide RNA co-expression vector, pSpCas9(BB)-2A-Puro (PX459) V2.0, which was a gift from Feng Zhang (Addgene plasmid #62988). To enrich for transfected cells, we subject 24 h post-transfection cells to 0.9 μg/mL or 2 μg/mL of puromycin, for HBE cells and HEK293T cells, respectively, for 72 h.

First, 293T human embryonic kidney cells (obtained from ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) were cultured at 37 °C under 5% CO2 in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Wisent) containing 5% fetal bovine serum (VWR, Radnor, PA, USA) and 100 µg/mL of penicillin-streptomycin (Wisent, St. Bruno, QC, Canada). Primary CD4+ T lymphocytes were purified from resting PBMCs by negative selection and activated as previously described [12 (link),13 (link)]. Briefly, PBMC were obtained by leukapheresis. CD4+ T lymphocytes were purified using immunomagnetic beads as per the manufacturer’s instructions (StemCell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada). CD4+ T lymphocytes were activated with phytohemagglutinin-L (PHA-L; 10 µg/mL) for 48 h and then maintained in RPMI 1640 (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) complete medium supplemented with rIL-2 (100 U/mL).

The THP-1 (ATCC TIB-202) cells were cultivated in RPMI 1640 (Wisent, St-Bruno, QC, Canada) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS (Wisent), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Wisent), and 1% MEM non-essential amino acids (Wisent, St-Bruno, QC, Canada). The human monocytes cells were differentiated into macrophages by addition of 10−7 M phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate (Sigma) for 48 h before the infection. Similarly, the RAW264.7 (ATCC TIB-71) murine macrophages were cultivated in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM; Wisent, St-Bruno, QC, Canada). The method was adapted to 96-well plates and performed at a MOI of 10 [36 (link)]. To obtain a similar number of intracellular bacteria, a MOI of 10 was used for macrophages to compensate for the phagocytic activity. Briefly, following an overnight growth in LB broth, the strains were added in triplicate. After 30 min, infected cells were washed with PBS, treated with gentamicin (50 ug/mL), and lysed with PBS-DOC 0.1% at 30 min (phagocytosis), and 18 h (survival) post-infection, then, serial dilutions were performed for enumeration of viable colony counts (CFU/mL). Each deletion was tested at least three times in triplicate.

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.
