The cell surface markers and cytokines were analyzed by flow cytometry, as described previously [30 (link),31 (link),32 (link)]. Living cells were stained with the following antibodies in PBS containing 0.1% (weight/volume) bovine serum albumin and 0.1% NaN3 for 30 min on ice. The following antibodies were obtained from BD Biosciences (Lake Franklin, NJ, USA): anti-CD4 (GK1.5), anti-B220 (RA36B2), anti-CXCR5 (2G8), anti-T- and B-cell activation antigen (GL-7), anti-CD95 (Jo2), anti-CD138 (281-2), and anti-IgD (11-26c.2a). The following antibodies were obtained from eBioscience (Thermo Fisher): anti-PD-1 (J43), anti-CXCR5 (SPRCL5), and anti-IL-21 (FFA21). To detect cytokine secretion, cells were stimulated with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA; Sigma-Aldrich) and ionomycin (PeproTech-BioGems, NJ, USA) for 5 hours. The cells were fixed using a Fixation/Permeabilization Solution Kit (BD Biosciences). To detect the metabolism-related regulators, we used anti-Glut1 (EPR3915) and anti-SDHα (EPR9043B) antibodies. Cells were fixed with a Fixation/Permeabilization Solution Kit (BD Biosciences) and were intracellularly stained for both molecules. All flow cytometry data were obtained with ACEA NovoCyte (ACEA Biosciences, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA), and the data were analyzed with NovoExpress (TreeStar, San Carlos, CA).

Cells were harvested from the tissues and pre-incubated with the anti-FcγR mAb and normal mouse serum to block nonspecific antibody binding for 15 min at 4C. Surface staining was performed in FACS buffer (PBS with 1% heat-inactivated FBS) for 25 min at 4C using the indicated surface Abs. Dead cells were excluded by DAPI staining and doublet events were eliminated by comparing the FCS-W and FCS-H to the SSC-W and SSC-H. IL-4 intracellular staining was performed using the BD Fixation/Permeabilization Solution Kit (BD Biosciences). Intracellular staining of PLZF was performed by fixing cells in 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 30 min at 4C. Cells were then permeabilized for 15 min at 4C in commercially-available Permeabilization Buffer (Invitrogen), and incubated with anti-PLZF antibody in Permeabilization Buffer for 1 hour at 4C. Samples were washed 3X with Permeabilization Buffer and 1X with FACS buffer prior to analysis. Events were acquired on an LSRII cytometer (BD Biosciences) and the data were analyzed with the FlowJo software.

Mice (C57BL/6, n = 5 in each group from two pooled experiments) were injected
intravenously with different vaccine formulations, such as multi-LP/α-GalCer
+ TRP2-mRNA, multi-LP/TRP2-mRNA, multi-LP/TRP2-mRNA + free α-GalCer,
free α-GalCer + TRP2-mRNA, and PBS as a negative control. The
vaccine formulations were prepared using 10 μg of TRP2-mRNA
and 0.5 μg of α-GalCer. Blood was collected from vaccinated
mice by saphenous bleeding and erythrocytes were removed by addition
of ACK lysis buffer (Quality Biological). peripheral blood mononuclear
cells (PBMCs) were stimulated with 1 μg/mL of TRP2-peptide (SVYDFFVWL)
for 6 h in the presence of a protein transport inhibitor, Brefeldin
A (BD GolgiPlug). After incubation, cells were washed and stained
with Abs for surface markers-TCRβ, CD8, and V450/viability dye.
Cells were then washed, fixed, and permeabilized with a BD Fixation/Permeabilization
Solution Kit and stained with anti-IFN-γ. The cells were washed,
resuspended in FACS buffer (1× PBS and 0.5% BSA), and analyzed
by flow cytometry (BD Fortessa X-20).
SVYDFFVWL-specific tetramer
(MBL International) staining was carried out by incubation at room
temperature for 10 min in FACS buffer. After washing, PBMCs were stained
with anti-TCRβ, anti-CD8 clone KT15, and V450/viability for
30 min at 4 °C in FACS buffer. Then, the samples were analyzed
by flow cytometry (BD Fortessa X-20).

For flow cytometric analyses and FACS sorts, lineage-depleted, CD4+ T cell enriched or unfractionated cells were stained in PBS 2% FCS for 20 min with corresponding antibodies and washed. For Y-Ae antibody conjugated with biotin, cells were washed and incubated for another 20 minutes with Streptavidin-PE (ThermoFisher). For intracellular cytokine staining, cells were stimulated for 4h at 37°C with the Cell Stimulation Cocktail (plus protein transport inhibitors) (eBioscience). After surface staining, cells were fixed, permeabilized and stained using the BD Fixation/Permeabilization Solution Kit (BD Biosciences) according to manufacturer’s instructions. Finally, cells were filtered through a 35-40μM filter and acquired by a flow cytometer (LSR II or LSRFortessa, Becton Dickinson) or cell sorter (FACSAria II or FACSAria Fusion, Becton Dickinson) for analysis or sort, respectively. Common gating strategies used in this study to define populations are depicted in Figure S6 and S7.

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.
