Human MO-DC were generated in vitro as previously described (14 ). Briefly, CD14+ monocytes were magnetically isolated from PBMC (Miltenyi) and cultured in RPMI containing 10% FCS supplemented with GM-CSF (100ng/ml) and IL-4 (20ng/ml) (R&D Systems). Cultures were fed on day 4. On day 8, DC were seeded into poly(2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate) (Sigma) coated 12-well culture plates (Corning Costar) at a density of 1 million cells/well and stimulated for 2 days with a cocktail containing IL-6 (10ng/ml), PGE2 (0.1μM) along with IL-1β (10ng/ml), IL-36α, IL-36β or IL-36γ (100ng/ml) in 500μl complete RPMI. DC phenotype was analyzed by flow cytometry as described above using antibodies against CD86 (FUN-1, BD), HLA-DR (LN3, eBioscience), CD1a (HI149, eBioscience), CD11c (3.9, eBioscience), CD123 (6H6, Biolegend) and appropriate isotype control antibodies.

Cells were cultured as above, but poly-L-lysine coated 96-well glass bottom plates (MatTek, Ashland, MA, USA) were used with 200 μl medium per well and 1–2 pieces of thymic tissue per well. Cells were fixed using 100 μl 1:1 4% paraformaldehyde/PBS for 5 min. Unspecific binding was blocked with serum-free protein block for 15 min (Dako, Copenhagen, Denmark). Cells were stained with Abs against EpCAM (HEA125), K8 (EP1628Y, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), K5 (D5/16 B4, Dako), HLA-DR, (G46-6, BD Pharmingen, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) or CD11c (3.9, eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) for 30 min at 37 °C. The wells were gently washed twice with PBS followed by incubation with alexa fluor-conjugated anti-mouse or anti-rabbit secondary antibodies for 30 min in 37 °C and finally washed in PBS and refilled with PBS. The stained cells were analyzed using a Zeiss lsm 700 at × 10x or × 25 magnification (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).

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.
