In Vivo Tumor Modeling in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal studies were reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the Suzhou Institute of Systems Medicine. Female C57BL/6 and athymic nude BALB/c mice (nu/nu) (6–8 weeks) were purchased from Beijing Vital River Company. Mice were randomly divided into the indicated groups (5 mice/group) before inoculation. Cancer cells (2 × 106 cells in 100 μl PBS per mouse) were subcutaneously implanted. Tumor size was monitored using calipers 2–3 times per week and calculated by multiplying the length by the width. In some experiments, CD8+ T cells were depleted by injecting 200 µg/mouse anti-CD8 antibodies (BE0004-1, BioXCell) intravenously at the indicated time points. Tumors were harvested on day 7–12 postimplantation for RNA sequencing, flow cytometric analysis, immunofluorescence staining, and ELISpot analysis. Tumor growth curves are depicted with the error bars indicating the mean ± SD at each time point. Cancer cells were injected via the tail vein, and mortality was recorded every 24 h. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were also plotted. Animals were euthanized with CO2 when the tumor volume reached 300 mm2.

MTL-CEBPA, a liposomal nanoparticle encapsulating a small activating RNA (saRNA) for C/EBPa (CEBPA-51), and its control liposomal nanoparticle with a non-specific oligonucleotide (NOV-FLUC) encapsulating siFLUC were supplied by MiNA Therapeutics Ltd, London, United Kingdom. MTL-CEBPA or NOV-FLUC was intravenously injected to the tumor-bearing mice twice per week at 3 mg/kg. For the T cell depletion study, intraperitoneal injection with 100 μg of anti-mouse CD8a antibody (BioXcell, BE0004-1) or rat IgG2a isotype control antibody (BioXcell) was started 2 days before tumor injection and repeated twice a week for 2 weeks. Anti-mouse CTLA-4 antibody (BioXcell, BE0164) or mouse IgG2b isotype control antibody was intraperitoneally injected to the tumor-bearing mice 100 μg per mouse on Days 10, 17 and 24. Celecoxib, selective cox2 inhibitor (Selleck Chemicals) was suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose and orally treated at 50 mg/kg to the tumor-bearing mice every day. Lipofermata was dissolved in DMSO and diluted in 30% (v/v) Kolliphor, and then subcutaneously injected to the tumor-bearing mice at 2 mg/kg twice a day.

CD8+ T-cell Depletion in Glioma Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Animals were treated with either anti-mouse CD8α (BE0004-1, BioXCell) or anti-rat IgG2a isotype control, anti-trinitrophenol (BE0089, BioXCell). The antibody concentration given to each mouse was 2 mg/mL diluted in PBS at a final volume of 100 μL administered via intraperitoneal injection one week prior to glioma induction and continued twice per week in order to achieve consistent CD8+ T-cell depletion. Depletion was monitored at three time points starting from intracranial virus injection, 3 weeks apart.

Anti‐mouse PD‐1 antibody (BE0273; Bioxcell) was administered via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 200 µg per mouse. Rat immunoglobulin G 2a (BE0089, Bioxcell) was used as a control twice per week for four weeks (Figure 3A). To deplete CD8 T and CD4 T cells, 200 µg of anti‐mouse CD8α (BE0004‐1; Bioxcell), 200 µg of anti‐mouse CD4 (BE0003‐3; Bioxcell), or 200 µg of rat IgG2a (BE0089; Bioxcell) as an isotype control were administered via intraperitoneal injection shown in Figure 6E. Depletion efficiency was determined by IHC using anti‐CD8 antibody (14.0808.82; eBioscience) and anti‐CD4 antibody (D7D2Z; Cell Signaling Technology).
To neutralize IFN‐γ, mice were intraperitoneally injected with antibodies against IFN‐γ (1.25 mg kg−1, BE0312; BioXcell). Polyclonal Armenian hamster IgG (BE0091; BioXcell) was used as a control (Figure 6E).

A total of 1×105 LLC tumor cells were inoculated into ear pinnae of C57BL/6 mice. Once tumors were visible, CD8 T cells were depleted by intraperitoneal injection of 250 μg anti-mouse CD8 clone 53–6.7 (Bio X Cell, catalog no.

Twenty-four hours later, 20 × 106S. aureus bioparticles or vehicle control, were injected into tumors. Subsequent anti-CD8 antibodies were administered every 3 days and S. aureus bioparticles (or vehicle control) every 2 days. A total of five anti-CD8 or isotype injections were administered and S. aureus bioparticles (or vehicle) were given until mice reached ethical endpoints.

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.
