Splenocytes were treated with 2.4G2 anti-Fc γRIIB antibody (Cambier lab) to block FcR binding. In primary staining, cells were incubated with anti-B220 (BD, RA3-6B2) and anti-IgM antibodies (Cambier lab, b-7-6), and 0.1μg biotinylated human recombinant insulin (Sigma) for 30min on ice. In secondary staining, cells were stained with 2µg Alexa Fluor™ 647 conjugated streptavidin (Invitrogen) for 20min on ice. Cells were washed and resuspended in MACS buffer (PBS/0.5% BSA/2 mmol/L EDTA), and incubated with anti-Cy5/anti-Alexa 647 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) for 15min at 4°C. To enrich IBCs, cells were passed through LS column mounted on a magnet (Miltenyi Biotec). To distinguish kappa (Igκ) and lambda (Igλ) light chains, cell markers such as: anti-Igκ (SouthernBiotech) and anti-Igλ (SouthernBiotech) were used during primary staining. Flow cytometry and cell sorting were performed using an LSR Fortessa X-20 (BD) and FACS on MoFlo Astrios EQ (Beckman Coulter). Data were analyzed with FlowJo software version 9 (Ashland, OR, USA).

A20 cell line, derived from mouse B cell lymphoma on BALB/c background [13 (link)], was obtained from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA). Primary cells were isolated from bone marrow (BM), spleen (SPL) or peripheral blood (PB) of B6 by standard methods. The A20 transfectants or primary cells were stained with the following antibodies (Abs): anti-mouse CEACAM1 mAb, CC1 (kindly provided by Dr. Kathlyn Holmes, University of Colorado, CO), anti-IgG1, FITC-anti-B220, PE-anti-IgM, FITC-anti-CD4, PE-anti-CD3ε, PerCP-anti-B220, PE-anti-CD43, PE-anti-CD25, PE-anti-Igκ, PE-anti-CD138, PE-anti-CD5, PE-anti-H-2Kd, PE-anti-I-Ad, PE-anti-CD69, PE-anti-CD80 and PE-anti-CD86 Abs (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Data acquisition was performed using FACS Calibur and analysis software Cell Quest (BD Biosciences).
In some experiments, the A20 transfectants were treated with Fluo-4® (Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan), and applied for FACS to analyze intracellular Ca2+ influx. During the acquisition, cells were treated with anti-Igκ (Southern Biotech, Birmingham, AL) to stimulate BCR signaling, and kinetics for Ca2+ influx were measured at FL2.

Total splenic B cells, marginal zone B cells, transitional B cells, or
Igκ-depleted B cells were cultured at 106 cells/ml in complete
RPMI media with or without 5 mg/ml LPS (Sigma). Supernatants were harvested
after 5 days of culture.
Anti-dsDNA and/or anti-ssDNA ELISAs were performed on serial dilutions
of serum (1:100, 1:400, 1:1600) or culture supernatant (neat, 1:5, 1:25, 1:125)
as described in (25 (link)). Anti-IgM, IgG,
anti-Igκ, or anti-Igλ alkaline phosphatase-conjugated detection
antibodies (Southern Biotech) were used as indicated in the figure legends.

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.
