A splenocyte proliferation assay was performed using splenocytes removed from mice that had been immunized with rPvMSP8. The cells were stimulated with rPvMSP8 (2.5 μg/mL), Con A (5 μg/mL), LPS (10 μg/mL), or medium alone. Culture supernatants were collected after 72 h of incubation and assayed using a BD CBA Flex Set kit (BD Biosciences), according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Antigen-Presenting Cell-Mediated T-Cell Activation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For each experiment, DC populations and naïve CD4+ T cells were isolated from the same donor. Sorted DCs were pelleted and resuspended in X-VIVO-15 media at 0.4∗106 cells/mL and 50μL were seeded in round bottom 96-well plates. Dilutions of viral supernatants for MOI of 2 were added up to 150uL and incubated overnight at 37°C. Supernatant was then removed and previously CFSE stained autologous naïve CD4+ T cells were added at a ratio of 1:10 (1 DC for 10 T cells) in the presence of SuperAntigen TSST-1 (0.5 ng/mL). After 48h or 72h of co-culture, supernatants were harvested and neutralised with NP40 10X and cells were fixed in 4% PFA in PBS. Cells were then stained with Live/Dead Near-IR Red stain, CD3 AF647 and CD25 PE (BD) and analysed on a FACS Verse (BD). Supernatants were processed for IL-2 quantification using BD CBA Flex Set Kit. Data were analysed using FlowJo v10 and Prism v7 for Mac (GraphPad).

Th1 (IL-2, IFN-γ)/Th2 (IL-4, IL-5, IL-13) cytokine and TNFα levels in BALF were determined by flow cytometry using CBA Flex Set kits (BD Biosciences) according to the manufacturer and as described in our previous studies [18 (link)]. Results were expressed as pg/ml BALF. Eotaxin-1(CCL11) and eotaxin-2 (CCL24) in the BALF were measured using ELISA kits (R & D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) according to the manufacturers’ recommendations.

Th1 (IL-2, IFN-γ)/Th2 (IL-4, IL-5) cytokines (including TNFα) and IL-13 were measured in the BALF by flow cytometry using CBA Flex Set kits (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) with a FACScan flow cytometer equipped with CellQuest ProTM (BD Biosciences) for data acquisition and FlowJo Software (Tree Star, Inc., Ashland, OR) for analysis or a FACSCelesta flow cytometer (for IL-13) with FACSDivaTM Software (BD Biosciences) for data acquisition and analysis as described previously (Ge et al., 2013a (link)). Eotaxin-1 (CCL11) and eotaxin-2 (CCL24) in the BALF were measured using ELISA kits (R & D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Results were expressed as pg/ml BALF in each case.

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.
