Tissue was embedded in optimal cutting temperature medium (TissueTec) and directly snap frozen in isopentane cooled by dry ice. The tissue was then cut into 8- or 14-µm sections by a cryostat and mounted on superfrost glass slides, which were dried for at least 1 h before storage at −70°C. Tissue sections were fixed and permeabilized with ice-cold acetone. The following antibodies were used: B220 (RA3-6B2; BioLegend), CD3 (pc; Abcam), CD68 (FA-11; AbD Serotec), CD103 (2E7; BioLegend), CD138 (281-2; BioLegend), F4/80 (BM8; AbD Serotec), IgG (STAR120F; AbD Serotec), Ly-6G (1A8; BioLegend), MARCO (ED31; AbD Serotec), MOMA1 (Abcam), and PNA (Vector). Tissue was mounted with Prolong Gold mountant (Invitrogen), and images were captured using a confocal scanning microscope (DMI6000; Leica Biosystems) connected to a True Confocal scanner (SP5; Leica Biosystems).

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were blocked for 30 minutes using FBS. Cell surface staining was achieved by incubating cells at 4°C for 30 minutes with the following anti-mouse antibodies: CD3 (145-2C11; Biolegend), IgM (e-Bioscience), B220 (RA3-6B2; BD Pharmingen), CD5 (53-7.3; eBioscience), CD138 (281-2; Biolegend), CD19 (1D3; BD Pharmingen), CD4 (RM4-5; Biolegend) and CD8α (53-6.7; Biolegend). Viability staining was accomplished using DAPI exclusion during acquisition. Apoptotic cells were detected by Annexin V-PE/DAPI staining (BD Pharmingen). Acquisition of B, T and CLL cell populations was performed on a LSRII cytometer (BD Biosciences) harboring a custom configuration for the Wistar Institute. Cytometry data was analyzed using FlowJo software version 7.6.1 (Tree Star Inc.).

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE), periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and acid fuchsin orange G (AFOG) according to standard procedures. Specific immunohistochemistry was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded consecutive sections using the following antibodies: CD79a (24C2.5; eBioscience, San Diego, CA), CD3 (SP7; NeoMarkers, Freemont, CA), CD138 (281-2; BioLegend, San Diego, CA). Biotinylated peanut agglutinin [PNA] (Ref. B-1075; Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA) was used as a marker for germinal center cells. Characterization of infiltrates was performed using polyclonal antibodies against Kappa light chain (Ref. NB7549), Lambda light chain (Ref. NB7552), IgM (Ref. NB7497) and IgA (Ref. NB7504), all Novus Biologicals (Littleton, CO) as well as an anti-polyvalent biotinylated antibody against IgG (Ref. KIT-IDST1007; Empire Genomics, Buffalo, NY). To detect renal IgG deposits, an F(ab’)2 anti-mouse IgG-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) antibody (eBioscience) was used as previously described [65 (link)].

The flow cytometry analysis was performed using the BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 analyzer (BD Biosciences). Mouse splenic cells were stained with anti-B220 (RA3-6B2, BioLegend), CD38 (90, eBioscience), CD95 (Jo2, BD), CD45.1 (A20, BioLegend), and CD45.2 (104, BioLegend) for the in vivo study of B1-8hi cell differentiation or with anti-B220, CD95, GL7 (GL7, BioLegend), CD138 (281-2, BioLegend), biotin anti-mouse IgG1 (RMG1-1, BioLegend), and BV785 streptavidin (BioLegend) for the in vitro analysis of GC B cell and plasma cell differentiation in the co-culture system or with anti-B220, annexin V (BD), and 7AAD (BD) for the analysis of cell apoptosis. The transduced A20 cell lines (kindly provided by Dr. Jeffrey Ravetch, Rockefeller University) were stained with anti-mouse BCL6 (K112-91, BD) for the knockdown efficiency of Bcl6-specific shRNA.

Splenocytes were isolated, passed through a 70-µm filter, lysed red blood cells by lysis buffer (ACK buffer: NH4Cl, KHCO3, and EDTA), and placed in staining buffer (PBS + 0.5% BSA). The splenocytes (1 × 106 cells) were stained with following antibody; anti-CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53–6.7), CD62l (MEL-14), CD44 (IM7), CD3ε (145–2C11), ICOS (C398.4A), CD11c (N418), B220 (RA3–6B2), CD11b (M1/70), I-Ab (AF6–120.1), PDCA-1 (129c1), CD80 (16–10A1), GL7 (GL7), and CD138 (281–2) (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA). The flow cytometry analysis was performed using BDTM LSR-II (BD Biosciences, USA) and FlowJo software (version 10, USA). The serum sample was measured using the LEGENDplex™ Mouse Inflammation Panel kit (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A, IL-23, IL-27, MCP-1, IFN-β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and GM-CSF) (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) and followed the manufacture protocol. The beads were analyzed using BDTM LSR-II (BD Biosciences, USA) and LEGENDplex™ Analysis Software version 8.

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.
