Ccng2−/− C57BL/6 mice were described previously. The TALEN-targeted Ccng2 knockout mice (Ccng2−/−) of the C57BL/6 N genetic background were generated by Cyagen (Cyagen Biosciences, Guangzhou, China) [16 (link), 19 (link)]. LLC or MC38 cells (1.5 × 106) were mixed with 3 × 105 BMDMs from wild-type (WT) or Ccng2−/− C57BL/6 mice and subcutaneously inoculated into the right flank of eight-week-old C57BL/6 mice. Each mouse was intraperitoneally injected with 2.5 μg IFN-γ (C746, Novoprotein) on Days 6, 9, and 12 after tumor cell inoculation. Tumors were periodically measured with calipers. The mice were euthanized on Day 15, and tumor weights and volumes were measured. All animal experiments were performed in accordance with relevant regulatory standards and approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of China Medical University.

Euthanize C57BL/6 wild-type or Jmjd6+/− mice, and retract their abdominal skin to expose the intact peritoneal wall. For the isolation of PM, 10 mL normal saline was injected intraperitoneally, and then fluid from peritoneum was aspirated with the same syringe. After centrifuging, the peritoneal cells were collected and cultured in complete RPMI-1640 medium for 2 h to allow the adhesion of macrophages. For the isolation of BMDM, the bone marrow was harvested from their femurs and tibia, and was filtered through a 70 μm cell strainer. Cells were cultured in complete RPMI-1640 medium with 20 ng/mL M-CSF for 5 days. For tumor-supernatant treatment, PMs and BMDMs were incubated in complete RPMI-1640 medium containing 20 ng/mL M-CSF and 10% B16 conditioned media for 2 days. For classical and alternative activation of macrophages, 100 ng/mL LPS (Sigma) + 20 ng/mL IFN-γ (Novoprotein) or 20 ng/mL IL-4 (Novoprotein) were added to the culture medium for 2 days, respectively.

Cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco, United States) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, United States) maintained at 37°C and 5% CO2. To knockdown GBP5 in Jurkat cells, a pool of two different siRNAs (1, 5′-GCCATAATCTCTTCATTCA-3′; and 2, 5′-GCTCGGCTTTACTTAAGGA-3′) were used. Scrambled sequence of the siRNA was used as control. RNA was synthesized at Ribo-Bio (China) and provided lyophilized.

Primary mMφ were treated with LPS (40 ng/mL, Novoprotein) and IFN-γ (20 ng/mL, Novoprotein) for 4 h at 37 °C with 5% CO2 to induce cytokine release. For EV functional evaluation, M2-EVs or MSC-EVs (10, 20 μg/mL) were added at the same time as LPS/γ-IFN treatment. After incubation, the treated cells were collected for qPCR assay. To determine whether the results were reproducible, LPS/γ-IFN-primed macrophages were treated with different EV preparations of M2-PMφ or MSCs, and the expression of cytokines was analyzed.

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.
