Dissociated cells from pancreatic lymph nodes were suspended in buffer containing 2% FBS in PBS. To stain for surface antigens, cells were incubated with specific antibodies to F4/80 (BM-8, Biolegend), CD11c (HL3, BD Pharmigen), CD4 (RM4–5, Biolegend), CD45 (30- F11, BD Biosciences), CD8a (53–6.7, eBioscience), CD80 (16-10A1, Biolegend), CD274 (10F.9G2, Biolegend), CD86 (GL-1, Biolegend), and MHC-II (M5/114.15.2, Biolegend) or the appropriate isotype controls for 30 min. For the intracellular staining, cells were stimulated with 100ng/mL PMA (Sigma Aldrich), 500ng/ml Ionomycin (Sigma Aldrich), and Golgi Stop Plug (BD Pharmigen, 1/1000). After stimulation, cells were first stained for surface antigens, then fixed and permeabilized with BD Cytofix/Cytoperm™ (BD Pharmigen), according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Cells were then incubated with specific antibodies to TNF-α (MP6-XT22, Biolegend), IL-1β (NJTEN3, Thermo Fisher Scientific), IL-17 (TC11-18H10, BD Pharmigen), IFN-γ (XMG12, BD Pharmigen), and FoxP3 (MF23, BD Pharmigen). After staining, the cells were washed, filtered, and analyzed on a FACS Canto II cytometer (BD). Data were analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star).

After 2w with regular or high nitrate diet feeding, BMDMs were isolated and cultured as previously described [39] . Endocytic potential of BMDMs was assessed by uptake of fluorescently labeled dextran (ThermoFisher, Sweden). Briefly, BMDMs were cultured in 12-well plate for 24 h then incubated with Alexa Fluor 647-labeled Dextran (1 μg/ml) for 30 min. After washing away the extra dextran with PBS, the cells were detached with 2 mM EDTA. Cells were run in a Gallios flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA) and analyzed using Kaluza v1.1 software (Beckman Coulter).
The intracellular cytokines of BMDMs was also measured by flow cytometer. Briefly, after 24 h of culture, the cells were first incubated with GolgiPlug (1 µl/ml, BD Biosciences) in complete DMEM for 4 h at 37 °C before incubation with antibodies. Fixation/Permeablization and intracellular staining was conducted using the eBioscience Intracellular Staining Kit and the following antibodies: IL-6 (MP5-20F3, Biolegend), IL-1 beta pro-form (NJTEN3, eBioscience), and TNF alpha (MP6-XT22, Biolegend).

A single-cell suspension was prepared from the spleen and red blood cells were lysed in PharmLyse (Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ). Fc receptors were blocked with an anti-CD16/CD32 (Becton Dickinson) antibody and the cells were then stained with anti-mouse antibodies against Gr-1 (clone: RB6-8C5) (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), Ly6G (1A8), Ly6C (AL-21), CD11b (M1/70), CD3 (17A2), CD4 (RM4-5), CD25 (PC61), and Foxp3 (MF23) (Becton Dickinson). Dead cells (stained positive by propidium iodide) were excluded from the analysis. To examine intracellular cytokine staining, 1 × 10 6 splenocytes were stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (5 ng/mL)/ionomycin (500 ng/mL) (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in the presence of GolgiPlug (Becton Dickinson) and then cultured in RPMI 1640 (Wako, Osaka, Japan) for 4 h at 37°C. Subsequently, cells were stained with antibodies against intracellular IL-1β (NJTEN3) (eBiosciences), IL-2 (JES6-5H4), IL-4 (11B11), IL-6 (MP5-20F3), IFNγ (XMG1.2), and TNFα (MP6-XT22) (Becton Dickinson). Rat IgG1κ and 2bκ (Becton Dickinson) were used as negative controls. Samples were run in a Calibur flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson) and data were analyzed using FlowJo software (TreeStar, Inc., Ashland, OR).

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.
