Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell Lines RAW 264.7 cells (Merck, USA) were cultured in DMEM complete media (DMEM (Cellclone and Lonza, India) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Thermofisher, USA) and antibiotics). Cells were passaged when the flasks were about 80% confluent. The HL-60 cells (ATCC, USA) were cultured in IMDM complete media (IMDM (Merck) containing 20% FBS and antibiotics).

Generation of Bone Marrow-Derived Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) and bone marrow-derived myeloid cells (BMMCs) were generated using femurs and tibias of females C57BL/6 WT and Ifnar1−/− mice aged of 8 to 12 weeks. Bones were carefully collected in sterile PBS. After washing bones in alcohol and Iscove’s medium (IMDM, Sigma-Aldrich) baths, extremities of bones were cut and flushed using a 26 G needle. After red blood cell lysis with ACK buffer, cells were cultured in IMDM supplemented with 10% of FCS + 2 mM l-Glutamine + 100 UI/mL Penicillin/Streptomycin + 50 µM 2-mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich) (referred herein as complete IMDM medium) at 0.5 × 106/mL and treated with 10 ng/mL of GM-CSF and IL-4 for BMDCs and 50 ng/mL of M-CSF for BMMCs (all from Peprotech). Cells were split at day 3 and used at day 7 or 8.

Unless otherwise noted, Tregs were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (plus β-mercaptoethanol) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 1% L-glutamine, 1% penicillin-streptomycin, 50 ng/ml IL-2 and anti-CD3/CD28 coated Dynabeads (Thermo Fisher) at 1:1 ratio (cells: beads). For glucose challenge experiments, glucose-free RPMI-1640 medium (Thermo Fisher, 1187020) were used. 2-DG was purchased from Sigma (D8375). For in vitro iTreg differentiation, 24-well plates were pre-coated with 40 μg/ml anti-hamster antibody (MP Biomedical). CD4+CD25CD44CD62L+ naive T cells were sorted and cultured for 3 days in IMDM (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 0.25 μg/ml anti-CD3 (145-2C11), 1 μg/ml anti-CD28 (37.51), 2 μg/ml anti-IL-4 (11B11), 2 αg/ml anti-IFN-γ (XMG1.2) and 5 ng/ml TGF-β. For in vitro Treg suppression assay, splenocytes from CD45.1+ mice were labeled with Cell Trace Violet (Thermo Fisher) and cultured with or without various ratio of sorted splenic Tregs from control or Tfamfl/flFoxp3Yfp-Cre mice. Cells were cultured for 3d with soluble 1 μg/ml anti-CD3/CD28. The division of CD45.1+CD4+ T cells were assessed by the dilution of Cell Trace Violet.

HEK293T (CVCL_0063) cells, squamous cell lung carcinoma HARA (CVCL_2914) and LK-2 (CVCL_1377) cells, and colorectal cancer SW620 (CVCL_0547) cells were obtained from, verified as mycoplasma free, and validated by DNA fingerprinting by the Cell Services facility at The Francis Crick Institute. HARA and LK-2 cells were originally sourced from the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources (JCRB) Cell Bank (JCRB1080.0 and JCRB0829, respectively) and were deposited with the Cell Services Facility at The Francis Crick Institute. HARA cells were grown in RPMI 1640 Medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with 10% fetal bovine serum, and unless otherwise indicated, other cell lines were grown in IMDM (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Media were further supplemented with l-glutamine (2 mmol/L, Thermo Fisher Scientific), penicillin (100 U/mL, Thermo Fisher Scientific), and streptomycin (0.1 mg/mL, Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Bone marrow cells were extracted from the femur and tibia of Balb/c mice, after which 10 × 106 bone marrow cells were cultured in 75% CM and 25% Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's medium (IMDM, Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 10% fetal clone I (FCI, GE Health Care Life Sciences, Hyclone Laboratories, Utah, USA), 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) and 2 mM L-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich) for 6 days. Cell viability and cell numbers were evaluated by trypan blue staining (Sigma-Aldrich). To evaluate the morphology of the cells, 5 × 105 sorted MDSC were fixed on glass slides using the cytospin technique and were centrifuged at a speed of 1000 rpm for 5 minutes. Cytospin slides, filter cards, sample chambers, and metal clips were all obtained from Thermo scientific (Massachusetts, USA). Cytospins were air dried for 2 hours and afterwards stained with hematoxylin and eosin.

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.
