Goat anti-hamster IgG (cat#127-005-160, Jackson ImmunoReserach) was pre-coated overnight at 4 °C in 96-well plates (5 µg/ml), and after blocking, anti-CD3 mAb (145-2C11; cat# MO3PU(V100), Immunostep) (1 µg/ml) was added and incubated at 37 °C for 1 h. Mouse CD8a+ T cells were purified from the spleens of C57BL/6 mice using the EasySep™ Mouse CD8a+T Cell Isolation Kit (Stem Cell Technologies). Then purified mouse CD8a+ T cells (2.5 × 105/well) in complete RPMI+50 µM 2-mercaptoethanol, and purified antibodies at 6.67 nM were added. As a control, purified mouse CD8a+ T cells were cultured alone with the immobilized anti-CD3 mAb (1 µg/ml). After 48 h, cell proliferation was assessed with the CellTiter-Glo luminescent assay (Promega) using a Tecan Infinite F200 plate-reading luminometer, and supernatants were collected and assayed for IFN-γ secretion by ELISA (Diaclone). For viability assays, cells were collected after 72 h, incubated with FITC-Annexin V (Immunostep) and 7-AAD (BD Biosciences), and analyzed with a MACSQuant Analyzer 10. Results are expressed as a mean ± SD from one of at least three separate experiments.

Spleens and bone marrow were harvested from mice and mashed first through a 70-μm and then a 40-μm nylon strainer (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) into RPMI medium to generate single-cell suspensions, which were then treated with ACK (Ammonium-Chloride-Potassium) lysis buffer (Lonza, Anaheim, CA) to remove red blood cells (RBCs). Cells (10 × 106) were suspended in 0.2 mL PBS and incubated with PE anti-mouse CD138 (syndecan-1) (BioLegend, San Diego, CA) and APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD45R/B220 (clone RA3–6B2) (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA) on ice in the dark room for 15 min. Cells were then washed twice with PBS and resuspended in 0.5 mL PBS; flow cytometric analysis was performed on a MACSQuant Analyzer 10 (BD Biosciences). A total of 1 × 105 events were collected. FlowJo software (BD Biosciences) was used for data analysis.

T24, T24/DOX, and T24/CIS (2 × 105 /well) were seeded in 6-well plates. After 24 h incubation with NTX (0, 10, 20, or 40 µM), cells were rinsed twice with PBS and fixed in precooling 70% ethanol for over 18 h at 4℃. Subsequently, they were rinsed twice with PBS and stain buffer (BD Biosciences, #554656). Following by 15 min staining in PI/RNase buffer (BD Biosciences, #550825), the analysis was performed by MACSQuant Analyzer 10 and MACSQuantifyTM Software 2.6.

Organs were incubated in RPMI medium containing liberase TL (50 mg/mL, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and DNase I (50 mg/mL, Sigma-AldrichSt. Louis, MO, USA) for 90 min at 37 °C, passed through a 100 µm cell strainer, and centrifuged for 5 min, 4 °C, 500× g. Erythrocytes were lysed by ammonium chloride buffer (5 min, RT). Cells were incubated for 10 min at RT in 50 µL Fc-blocking buffer, containing anti-CD16/32 (0.5 µg/100 µL) (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), 1% rat serum, and 1% Syrian hamster serum, followed by indicated antibody (CD3, CD4, CD8e, CD11c, CD49b, CD69 all 1:200; CD11b, Ly6G both 1:400; IFN-g, MHC-II, MPO, TNF-a all 1:400) (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) incubation together with DHR123 (50 µM) (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for ROS and/or 7-AAD (1 µg/mL) (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for necrosis assessment for 15 min on ice. For intracellular cytokine stainings, cells were treated with 5 µg/mL Brefeldin A in RPMI buffer in an anti-CD3/CD28-coated (5 µg/mL each) (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) plate for 4,5 h at 37 °C with 5% CO2 followed by antibody incubation. Cells were analyzed with a MACS Quant Analyzer 10 (BD, Heidelberg, Germany).

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.
