Human peripheral blood CD14+ monocytes were purchased from LONZA (Lonza Walkersville, MD). Upon arrival, aliquots were thawed at 37°C and transferred to 50 mL conical tubes. Cells were washed twice with 10 mL of supplemented RPMI (10% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin) and 20 U/mL of DNase I (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), followed by centrifugation at 200 × g for 15 min. Cells were then re-suspended in RPMI containing 10% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 1% sodium pyruvate, and 100 ng/mL of recombinant human M-CSF (eBioscience, San Diego, CA). M-CSF was used to differentiate monocytes into macrophages. Primary cells were cultured for 5–6 days in a 75-cm2 tissue culture flask at 37°C with 5% of CO2. Macrophages were harvested, and non-adherent cells and media were removed. The cells remaining in the culture flask were detached by adding 12 mL of trypsin for 30 min (37 °C, 5% CO2). Cells were plated at 250,000 cells/mL in 24-well plates, seeded for 1 hour, stimulated with LPS (5 μg/mL, Escherichia coli O111:B4, Sigma), and transfected with a plasmid containing the CD163 gene or an empty vector. Supernatants and cells were harvested at 48 and 96 hours after LPS stimulation and stored at −80°C until used.

Two types of human monocyte-derived macrophages (h-Mo-Mφs) were generated as described in Supplementary Figure S1A. CD14+ monocytes (AllCells, Alameda, CA, USA) were cultured (37°C, 5% CO2) in RPMI1640 (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 100 ng/ml human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF; Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) or 100 ng/ml human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF; R&D Systems) for 7 days. The M-CSF-treated cells were further cultured in RPMI1640 supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 ng/ml human M-CSF, and 20 ng/ml human interleukin (IL)-4 (R&D Systems) for 2 days. Human monocyte-derived DCs (h-Mo-DCs) were obtained as shown in Supplementary Figure S2B. For h-Mo-DC generation, CD14+ monocytes were cultured in X-VIVO 15 medium (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 100 ng/ml human GM-CSF and 100 ng/ml human IL-4. Cells were incubated at 37°C in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2 for 6 days, with medium changes on days 2 and 3. Generated cells were harvested on day 6 and reseeded in fresh medium supplemented with 100 ng/ml GM-CSF and 100 ng/ml IL-4. To generate mature DCs, cells were further supplemented with 10 μg/ml CD40 agonist antibody (patent, WO/2002/088186). The characteristics of monocyte-derived cells were verified by flow cytometry (FCM).

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.
