Sex matched mice at the age of 6–8 weeks were sacrificed by CO2 asphyxiation. Peritoneal cavity cells were collected by rinsing with FACS buffer (1x PBS plus 2% fetal bovine serum). Cells from the bone marrow and spleen were lysed with a red blood cell lysis buffer to remove red blood cells and filtered through a 70 μM cell strainer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ). After washing with cold 1x PBS, cells were counted by trypan blue staining. One million cells were resuspended in 100 μL FACS buffer and labeled with 1 μL antibodies of B220-APC, CD43-FITC, BP-1-PE, CD24-PerCP/Cy5.5, CD19-APC-Cy7, IgM-PE, IgD-PerCP/Cy5.5, IgM-PErCP/Cy5.5, CD93-APC, CD23-PE, CD21-FITC, CD5-PerCP (BioLegend, San Diego, CA).

For intracellular staining of phosphorylated STAT5 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5), sorted pre-B cells were fixed in 1.6% paraformaldehyde for 10 min at room temperature. Cells were stored in 90% ethanol in −80 °C until analysis. Cells were washed two times in ice cold phosphate-buffered saline before resuspension in phosphate-buffered saline with 2% fetal calf serum. Cells were kept on ice and stained with antibodies against phosphorylated STAT5 (STAT5P-Alexa Flour 647 from BD) or matching isotype controls. Levels of phosphorylated STAT5 are presented as median fluorescence intensity, normalized to the median fluorescence intensity of isotype-stained cells.

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.
