Splenocytes from WT and Nlrc3−/− mice were treated with ACK lysis buffer at room temperature for 1 min to remove red blood cells. Splenocytes were washed, counted and plated at 2 × 105 cells per well in a 96-well plate coated with 1 µg/mL anti-CD3 (145-2C11, Affymetrix eBioscience) and 1 µg/mL anti-CD28 (16–0281, Affymetrix eBioscience). Cells were cultured at 37°C with and without 20 ng/ml murine IL-2 (212-12, Peprotech) for 4 days. Brefeldin A (00–4506, Affymetrix eBioscience) was added to the media for 3 h, followed by washing in PBS, and staining with anti-CD4 (14–0042–85, Affymetrix eBioscience) and anti-CD3 (145-2C11, Affymetrix eBioscience) antibodies on ice for 20 min. Stained cells were fixed in 1% paraformaldehyde for 30 min on ice and permeabilized using permeabilization buffer (00–8333-56, Affymetrix eBioscience) according to manufacturer’s instructions. To detect intracellular cytokines, fixed cells were stained with anti-IFN-γ (50–7311, Tonbo) and anti-TNF (506322, Biolegend) for 30 min on ice. Flow cytometry were performed as described above.

For immunophenotyping of ex vivo tumor tissue, tumors were extracted on day 8, after bacteria treatment on days 0, 4, and 7. Lymphocytes were isolated from tumor tissue by mechanical homogenization and digestion with collagenase A (1 mg/ml, Roche) and DNAase I (0.5 μg/ml, Roche) in isolation buffer (RPMI 1640 supplemented with 5% FBS, 1% L-glutamine, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and 10 mM Hepes) for 1 h at 37°C. Cells were then filtered through 100 μm cell strainers and washed in isolation buffer before staining. A Ghost Dye cell viability stain was used as a live/dead marker. Extracellular antibodies used include: anti-B220 (BD), anti-CD4 (Tonbo), anti-CD8 (eBioscience), and anti-NKp46(BD). Cells were then fixed using FOXP3/transcription factor staining buffer set (Tonbo) in accordance with the manufacturer’s protocol and then stained intracellularly. To measure the production of cytokines by T cells, cells were stimulated for 2 h with PMA (50 ng/ml; Sigma Aldrich) and ionomycin (1 nM; Calbiochem) in the presence of brefeldin A. We stained for intracellular markers using the following antibodies: anti-TCRβ (BD), anti-Ki67(Thermo), anti-TNF (eBioscience), anti-IFNγ (Tonbo), and anti-FOXP3 (eBioscience). Samples were analyzed using a BD LSR Fortessa cell analyzer. FlowJo was used for all data analyses.

T-cell differentiation experiments were performed as described previously.E8 Briefly, FoxP3- CD4+ T cells were purified and activated using anti-CD3/CD28 beads (Dynabeads, Invitrogen). For TH1 differentiation, 1 × 105 T cells were stimulated in the presence of IL-2 (20 U/mL; eBioscience), IL-12 (20 ng/mL; Tonbo), and anti–IL-4 (10 μg/mL; Tonbo). For Treg-cell differentiation, cells were stimulated in the presence of IL-2 (100 U/mL; eBioscience), TGF-β (5 ng/mL; Tonbo), and anti–IFN-γ (10 μg/mL; Tonbo). After 4 days, T cells were stimulated with ionomycin (500 ng/mL) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (50 ng/mL) in the presence of monensin (eBioscience) for 4 hours before intracellular staining. FoxP3 staining was performed using FoxP3/transcription factor staining kit (Tonbo).

Single-cell suspensions were prepared from the colon as previously described.35 The following monoclonal antibodies were used to stain and sort cells- Epcam (clone G8.8), CD45.2 (clone 104), CD90.2 (clone 30-H12), and MHCII (clone M5/114.152). Splenic and MLN cells were processed and stimulated as previously described.35 Briefly, single-cell suspensions were prepared and stimulated with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate and ionomycin for 4 h, with brefeldin A (00-4506, Affymetrix eBioscience) added for the last 2 h. For intracellular cytokine staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized by using a fixation and permeabilization solution (00-5523, eBioscience). Antibodies used for staining were anti-CD3 (clone 145 – 2C11), anti-CD4 (clone RM4-5), anti-CD19 (clone 1D3), anti-IFNγ (50-7311, Tonbo), and anti- TNF (506322, Biolegend).

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.
