Splenic B cells were negatively selected by staining with biotinylated anti-CD43 (clone S7) and anti-CD11b (clone M1/70) antibodies for 20 minutes on ice, washing and incubating the cells with streptavidin beads (Dynabeads M-280 Invitrogen), following the manufacturer’s instructions. A Dynal Invitrogen Beads Separator was used to purify the cells. B1-8hi B cells were purified using biotinylated anti-CD43 (clone S7), anti-CD11b (clone M1/70) and anti-kappa (clone RMK-12) antibodies. OT-2 T cells from lymph nodes and spleen were purified using a mix of biotinylated antibodies: anti-B220 (clone RA3-6B2), anti-CD8 (clone 53-6.7), anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136), anti-CD11b, anti-GR1 (clone RB6-8C5), and anti-F4/80 (clone BM8). Splenic and lymph node B and T cells were maintained in RPMI 10% FBS supplemented with 2 mM l-glutamine, 100U/ml penicillin, 100 U/ml streptomycin, 20 µM β-mercaptoethanol, and 10 mM sodium pyruvate. Alternatively, plenic B cells and OT-2 T cells from lymph nodes were purified by negative selection using the CD43 (Ly-48) Microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) and naive CD4 + T cell Isolation Kits (Miltenyi Biotec), respectively. The cell suspension was then loaded onto a MACS column and a MACS Separator was used to purify the cells. All antibodies used are listed in Supplementary Table 1.

Naïve splenic B cells were magnetically enriched by negative selection using CD43 (Ly-48) MicroBeads (130–097-148, Miltenyi Biotec) with >95% purity following the manufacturer’s instructions. These cells were either cultured directly or further enriched or purified by magnetic bead separation or FACS, respectively. For magnetic enrichment of MZB, CD43 B cells were stained with a CD23-PE antibody (B3B4; BioLegend), followed by magnetic separation using anti-PE MicroBeads (130–105-639; Miltenyi Biotec) leaving MZB in the flow-through and FoB in the enriched bound fractions. In some experiments, MZB (B220+CD93- CD21+CD23-) and FoB (B220+CD93- CD21-/loCD23+) were isolated by FACS. Purified B cells were cultured at 0.5 × 106 cells/ml of B cell media (RPMI 1640, 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 0.05 mM 2-Mercaptoethanol, 1X nonessential amino acids, 1X penicillin/streptomycin, 10 mM HEPES, and 1 mM sodium pyruvate) with 20 µg/ml LPS (L2630; Sigma), 20 ng/ml IL-2 (575406; Biolegend), and 5 ng/ml IL-5 (581504; Biolegend). LPS and cytokines were supplemented at a half dose at 24h and 48h of ex vivo culture as described before (61 (link)).

Lymphocytes were isolated from spleens as previously described [11 (link)]. Mature resting B cells were isolated by depletion of CD43+ cells using CD43 (Ly-48) MicroBeads according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Miltenyi Biotec). B cells (106/well) were cultured in 1 ml of complete RPMI (RPMI 1640, 5 % FBS, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin) in a 24-well plate with 5 ng/ml of recombinant mouse IL-4 (Gibson) and 5 μg/ml of anti-mouse IgM (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories) for 24 h. B cells cultured in 1-ml complete RPMI were used as the unstimulated control. Both stimulated and unstimulated B cells were harvested and washed with FACS buffer and were incubated with 5 μg/ml Fc receptor block (anti-mouse CD16/32, Biolegend) for 5 min on ice. Cells were then stained with antibodies including APC-efluor780-anti-B220 (eBiosciences, clone HIS24, 1:200), PE-anti-CD86 (Biolegend, clone GL-1, 1:200), APC-anti-MHC class II (eBiosciences, clone M5/114.15.2, 1:1000), and PE/Cy7-anti-CD40 (Biolegend, clone 3/23, 1:50). Cells were detected using LSRII and analyzed by FACS-Diva Version 6.1.3 software (BD Biosciences).

For T cell–dependent immunization, 8- to 12-wk-old mice were injected i.v. with 109 defibrinated SRBCs (TCS Bioscience) in PBS. EdU (Invitrogen) was dissolved in sterile PBS (5 mg/ml); for proliferation studies, 1 mg in a volume of 200 µl was injected i.p. 3 h before analysis; for the assessment of the kinetics of the formation of MBCs, 1.5 mg in a volume of 300 µl was injected i.p. every 12 h for 3 d (protocol adapted from Weisel et al., 2016 (link)). Adoptive transfers were performed into CD45.1+ or CD45.1+/CD45.2+ congenic mice. Briefly, 3 × 104 HEL-binding B cells were injected i.v. into congenic recipients, followed by i.v. immunization the next day with 2 × 108 SRBCs conjugated to a specific recombinant HEL protein. SRBCs in Alsever’s (TCS Bioscience) were conjugated to recombinant HEL (Sigma) or HEL3X (R. Brink) with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (Sigma) as previously described (Goodnow et al., 1988 (link)). CD45.2+ splenic B cells from SWHEL donor mice were purified by CD43 (Ly-48) MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec) depletion. For analyses and cell FACS sorting, CD45.2+ donor splenocytes were enriched by CD45.1-negative selection using anti-mouse biotinylated CD45.1 antibody (clone A20; eBioscience) and Anti-Biotin MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec).

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.
