Human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293T) and HeLa cells were cultured in DMEM (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 100 U/l penicillin G sodium, and 100 µg/ml streptomycin sulfate. Cells were kept under 95% humidified air and 5% CO2 at 37°C. For immunofluorescence, cells were seeded on glass coverslips before transient transfection with Lipofectamin 3000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Protein expression for protein biochemistry was performed by treating 80% confluent T75 tissue culture flasks (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) with a mixture of 635 µl ddH2O, 815 µl 300 mM NaCl, 180 µl polyethylenimine solution (0.323 g/l; Polysciences, Warrington, PA), and 22 µg of plasmid DNA. The O-glycosylation blocker benzyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-α-d-galactopyranoside (BenGal) and the N-glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) were dissolved in DMSO to stock solutions of 1 mg/ml and 300 mM, respectively, and stored at –20°C. Indicated cell culture media were supplemented with 1 µg/ml tunicamycin, 300 µM BenGal, or equal amounts of DMSO.

At 90% confluence, cells were passaged by detachment with trypsin-EDTA, followed by centrifugation at 500 x g for 5 and then resuspension in fresh DMEM. Freshly isolated BMDMs were cultured at 37°C at 5% CO2 in RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% FCS (v/v), 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 5 mM HEPES (ph 7.4), hereafter referred to as “RPMI-1640” unless otherwise indicated. Prior to experimental use, BMDMs were detached with EDTA (10 mM in PBS), centrifuged at 500 x g for 5 min, and resuspended in fresh RPMI-1640 before cell seeding.

The iGB culture system was described previously by Nojima et al.38 (link). Briefly, the 3T3 fibroblast cell line of BALB/c origin stably expressing CD40 ligand and B cell activating factor (BAFF) (40LB cell line), was cultured and maintained in high-glucose DMEM with GlutaMAX (catalog no. 31966021, Thermo Fisher Scientific) medium supplemented with 10% FCS and 50 U ml−1 penicillin/streptomycin (catalog no. 15070063, Thermo Fisher Scientific) in T75 tissue culture flasks (catalog no. 658175, Sarstedt). Once cells were confluent, they were detached using trypsin/EDTA (catalog no. 25200056, Gibco) treatment, washed and collected in 15-ml tubes in 5 ml medium and irradiated (80 Gy). After irradiation, cells were washed, counted and seeded at 3 × 106 per dish (100 mm, catalog no. G664160, Greiner) or 0.5 × 106 per well (6-well plate, catalog no. 353046, Falcon). Fibroblast attachment and stretching were allowed overnight at 37 °C and 5% CO2. The next day, naive B cells were isolated using anti-CD43 microbeads and treated with TAT-Cre (approximately 1.5 μM or 66.7 U ml1, catalog no. SCR508, Merck) for 45 min as described in Supplementary Methods. After three washes, cells were counted and cultured on an irradiated 40LB layer at 5 × 105 (100-mm dish) and 5 × 104 (per well, 6-well plate) for 4–6 days.

Fresh blood collected from female New Zealand white rabbits (Covance Research Products, Denver, PA, USA) was used in this study. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) including monocytes were isolated using OptiPrep (Axis‐Shield, Oslo, Norway) according to a modified manufacturer's protocol for rabbit blood. Twofold diluted rabbit's blood was layered on OptiPrep density solution. After density gradient centrifugation at 700 g for 20 min with nonaccelerator and nonbrake modes, isolated PBMCs were washed two times with phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS; GE Healthcare Life Sciences Hyclone Laboratories, Logan, UT, USA) by centrifugation at 250 g for 10 min. Cells were resuspended in RPMI‐1640 medium (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; GE Healthcare Life Sciences Hyclone Laboratories) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Life Technologies) at a concentration of 2 × 106 cells·mL−1. Subsequently, cell suspensions were transferred to T75 tissue culture flasks (Sarstedt, Newton, NC, USA), four‐well chamber slides (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rochester, NY, USA), or 24‐well flat bottom tissue culture plates (Becton Dickinson, Flanklin Lakes, NJ, USA).

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.
