Single cell suspensions were incubated with an antibody cocktail containing APC-anti-CD11b, FITC-anti-CD47 and PE-Cy7-anti-Ly6G for 30 min at room temperature. For blockade of Fc receptors on monocyte/macrophages and neutrophils during flow cytometric analysis, the cells were pre-incubated with 0.5 µg purified rat anti-CD16/CD32 for 5 min on ice prior to staining with antibody cocktail. Apoptotic cells were detected by PE-Annexin V apoptosis detection kit (BioLegend; cat. no. 640934), according to the manufacturer's recommendations. All stained cells were analyzed on a BD FACSAria III instrument (BD Biosciences) and FlowJo software, v. 8.8.4 (FlowJo LLC).

Astrocyte Purification from Optic Nerve Head

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Astrocytes were purified from the optic nerve head of Gfap-tdTomato and Spp1GFPfl/flGfapCre mice. Briefly, the optic nerve heads were treated with papain (0.6 mg/ml; LS003126; Worthington) and L-cysteine (0.012 mg/ml; C7352; Sigma-Aldrich) for 15 min at 37°C in Ca2+- and Ma2+-free HBSS solution (14185-052; Gibco). After the incubation, tissues were centrifuged at 953g for 5 min and the papain/HBSS solution was removed. Tissues were resuspended in horse serum (10%, 26050-088; Gibco) and DNase I (60 U/ml; D-5025; Sigma-Aldrich) in HBSS and were triturated with a heat-polished Pasteur pipet (TW150-4; World Precision Instruments), and the tissue was completely dissociated. Dissociated cells were centrifuged, resuspended in HBSS, and passed through a 35-μm cell strainer. Astrocytes were identified by tdTomato fluorescence and sorted directly into a collection medium using a BD FACSAria III instrument (BD Biosciences). Astrocytes sorted by FACS were centrifuged at 1,000g for 10 min and were used for RNA extraction.

CRISPR-Cas9 Knockout of B7-H3 in LM7 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B7-H3−/− LM7 cells (LM7KO) were generated using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. Briefly, 400,000 LM7 cells were transiently transfected with precomplexed ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) consisting of 150 pmol of chemically modified single guide RNA (sgRNA) (5′-GAUCAAACAGAGCUGUGAGG-3′, Synthego) and 35pmol of Cas9 protein (St. Jude Protein Production Core) via nucleofection (4D-Nucleofector X unit; Lonza, Switzerland) using solution P3 and program DS-150 in a small (20-μL) cuvette according to the manufacturer’s recommended protocol. A portion of the pool of cells was harvested 3 days after nucleofection and verified to contain the desired modification via targeted deep sequencing and analysis with CRIS.py.45 (link) Post-nucleofection LM7KO cells were stained with B7-H3 antibody (clone 7-517; Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and sorted on the B7-H3-negative population using a BD FACSAria III instrument. This sorting step was repeated one additional time to produce a final LM7KO product. After KO and flow sorting, LM7KO cells were authenticated by short tandem repeat (STR) profiling using the service of the American Type Culture Collection (FTA sample collection kit; ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA).

PRRSV Antigen Presentation Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sorted cDCs, CD14+ cells and PBMCs were stimulated with PRRSV at an moi of 0.1 in 96-well plates seeded with 1 × 104 cells per well. They were then incubated for 24 h at 37 °C and washed with RPMI-1640 medium to eliminate the remaining virus. Sorted T cells were labeled with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE). Briefly, the cells were stained with CFSE for 15 min (mixing every 5 min), and 1 mL of FBS was then added to eliminate the CFSE excesses. The T cells were centrifuged at 1600 rpm for 10 min at 25 °C, cocultured with the cDCs or monocytes at a ratio of 1:10 for 96 h and analyzed with the BD FACS ARIA III instrument.

0.3 × 106 cell suspension from lung digests or BAL were incubated with antibody cocktail containing FITC-anti-CD206, PE-anti-CD45, PerC-Cy5-anti-F4/80, PE-Cy7-anti-Ly6G, APC-Cy7-anti-CD11b, BV421-anti-Siglec F (also known as CD170). All antibodies were purchased from BD Biosciences (Franklin Lakes, NJ), BioLegend and eBiosciences (San Diego, CA). The cells were stained with fluorescence-minus-one (FMO) antibody cocktail for negative staining control. After incubation with antibodies in PBS supplied with 3% FBS for 40 min at room temperature, the cells were then washed with PBS for 2 times and analyzed on BD FACSAria™ III instrument and BD FACSDiva™ software (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) within 48 h. All data was analyzed using FlowJo software, version 8.8.4 (Tree Star Inc.).

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.
