ATP was induced in five Prg4-CreERT2;R26-tdTomato mice at 8 weeks of age, followed by tamoxifen injection 3 and 4 days after ATP, and were then euthanized 1 week after the ATP. The Achilles tendons were harvested and minced in ice-cold PBS. The harvested tissues were digested in RPMI 1640 medium (#30264-85, Nacalai Tesque Inc.) containing 0.3% type 1 collagenase (#CLS1, Worthington, Columbus, OH) and 0.4% dispase II (#04942078001, Roche, Basel, Switzerland) at 37°C for 45 min with constant agitation. Cells were filtered through 100-, 70-, and 40-μm strainers, centrifuged, counted, and resuspended at a concentration of 1000 cells/μl. Cell viability was assessed using the trypan blue exclusion method with a LUNA-FL (Logos Biosystems, Anyang, South Korea) automated counter, and samples with viability greater than 80% were processed for further sequencing. Single-cell libraries were prepared using the Chromium Controller (10x Genomics, Pleasanton, CA) according to the protocol of Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3′ Reagent Kits (v3.1 10x Genomics). Libraries were prepared using Chromium Controller (10x Genomics). Alignment, quantification, and aggregation of sample count matrices were performed using the 10x Genomics Cell Ranger pipeline (v.5.0.0), retaining an average of 61,308 reads per cell mapped read depth normalization.

For 40 h.p.i. time-point, tightly synchronous parasites were enriched using 63% Percol, washed twice with incomplete RPMI medium, and processed immediately on the 10X Chromium controller (10X Genomics, Pleasanton, CA). For 16 h.p.i. time point parasites were stained with Mitotracker Deep Red FM (Life Technologies, #M22426) for FACS analysis and flow sorting, respectively. Briefly, 50 μl of SYBR Green I stained RBCs were analyzed on BD LSR Fortessa Flow Cytometer with High Throughput sampler (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) using BD FACS Diva Software v6.2 and 488 laser excitation / 530 emission filter to determine the concentration of SYBR Green I positive cells per microliter. A BD Influx Cell Sorter (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) with BD FACS Sortware v1.0.01 software was used to sort ~40,000 Mitotracker Deep Red FM - positive RBC’s using a 70 μm nozzle, a 640 nm laser excitation / 670 nm emission filter and a pressure setting of 30 psi. Post-sorted cell concentration and quality were checked using a Countess® II Automated Cell Counter (Invitrogen) and FLoid Cell Imaging Station (ThermoFisher). Finally, labeled cells (i.e., SYBR Green I or Mitotracker Deep Red FM positive cells) were then loaded onto a 10X chip (Chip G) and processed immediately on the 10X Chromium controller (10X Genomics, Pleasanton, CA).

We implanted two mice for each syngeneic model resulting in a total of 12 samples. Each mouse tumor was harvested when the tumor size reached 100 – 200 mm3. Each sample was minced and digested with reagents from Mouse Tumor Dissociation Kit (Miltenyi) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cells were resuspended at 2×105 cells/mL in PBS-0.04% BSA. Each sample was processed individually and run in technical duplicates. For each sample (except CT26 and MC-38) one replicate was enriched for CD45 positive cells. Live CD45 positive cells were sorted with BD Aria after staining with FITC-CD45 (Biolegend) and 7-AAD. Single cell suspensions of all samples were resuspended in PBS-0.04% BSA at 5×105 cells/mL and barcoded with a 10× Chromium Controller (10× Genomics). In total, this procedure resulted in 24 samples. RNA from the barcoded cells for each sample was subsequently reverse-transcribed and sequencing libraries were constructed with reagents from a Chromium Single Cell 3′ v2 reagent kit (10× Genomics) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Sequencing was performed with Illumina HiSeq according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Illumina).

Ten microliters of mixed cells is added to the blood counting chamber, and the cell numbers and viability are detected (Figures 1B and 1C).

CRITICAL: PBMC viability should be maintained at least 90%, and the cell concentration should be at least 1000 cells/μL.

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.
