To investigate the expression of TLT-6 in primary cells, cells were harvested from the bone marrow and bone marrow-derived and peritoneal macrophages were collected, and washed twice in staining buffer (PBS, 0.01% NaN3, and 2% FBS). Cells were stained with fluorescence (FITC, PE, or APC)-, biotin-conjugated hematopoietic-specific monoclonal antibodies (CD4, CD3, CD8, B220, Gr-1, Mac-1, c-Kit, Sca-1, CD11b, Ter-119, and CD11c), or matched isotype controls purchased from eBiosciences (Sand Diego, CA, USA). Macrophages derived from the peritoneum or bone marrow were activated by LPS. Red cells were lysed, and nonspecific binding was blocked by preincubation with nonconjugated antibody to CD16/32. Dead cells were excluded by propidium iodide staining. Whole cells stained were analyzed using FACSVantage SE (BD Biosciences).

Mouse competitive homing experiments were performed as described32 (link). In brief, BM cells from Fancb−/y or their male WT littermates (CD45.2+) were labeled with DiO dye at a density of 2 × 106 cells per ml at 37 °C for 30 min. In parallel, BM cells from BoyJ mice (CD45.1+) were labelled with DiD dye (1:200) at 37 °C for 30 min. DiO and DiD were purchased from Vybrant Multicolor Cell-Labelling Kit (Molecular Probes, V-22889). After labelling, dyes were washed off. The DiO-labelled CD45.2 and DiD-labelled CD45.1 cells were mixed at a 1:1 ratio and transplanted into lethally irradiated (11 Gy one day before transplantation) CD45.1 recipients (2.5 × 106 from each donor). Sixteen hours after transplant, the recipients were euthanized and the BM was analyzed by flow cytometry for both DiO/DiD and surface lineage markers (Gr1, Mac1, B220, CD3, Ter119, from Ebioscience) and c-Kit (2B8, BD Biosciences). The ratio between the percentages of DiO+ (donor) and DiD+ (competitor) cells within different cell populations was quantified.

Bone marrow cells were harvested by crushing two tibias, two femurs, two pelvises, and one spine from each mouse. Bone marrow cells were enriched for immature cells using anti–mouse CD117 MicroBeads and an autoMACS machine (both Miltenyi Biotec) per manufacturer’s instructions. c-Kit–enriched populations were stained with antibodies against lineage markers (B220, CD3, Gr-1, Mac-1, and Ter119), c-Kit, Sca-1, CD150, CD16/32, and CD34 (eBioscience) as previously described (McGowan et al., 2011 (link)). Stained samples were either analyzed or sorted using a FACSAria II (BD). For all experiments in which c-Kithi or c-Kitlo HSCs were purified, they were double-sorted to ensure >95% purity. To calculate the frequency of hematopoietic precursors, two femurs and two tibias were flushed into 1x PBS containing 2.5% fetal calf serum (Hyclone). Bone marrow aspirations were performed on mice under isoflurane anesthesia per IACUC-approved protocol. Aspirates were treated with ACK lysis buffer and stained in PBS/2.5% fetal calf serum with antibodies against lineage markers, c-Kit, Sca-1, CD150, CD16/32, Flk2, CD34, CD48, and CD41 for analysis on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. For myeloid progenitors, bone marrow cells were stained with antibodies against lineage markers, c-Kit, Sca-1, CD150, CD16/32, CD41, CD105, and CD71, as described by Pronk et al. (2007) (link).

Mouse CD34KSL HSCs were purified from BM cells of 8-10-week-old mice. The cells were stained with an antibody cocktail consisting of biotinylated anti-Gr-1, −Mac-1, −CD4, −IL-7R, and -Ter-119 (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), and -B220 and -CD8 monoclonal antibodies (BioLegend, San Diego, CA) (lineage-marker cocktail). Lineage-positive cells were depleted with anti-Biotin MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA) and LS columns (Miltenyi Biotec). The remaining cells were further stained with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated anti-CD34 (BD Bioscience, California, CA), phycoerythrin (PE)-conjugated anti-Sca-1 (eBioscience), and allophycocyanin (APC)-conjugated anti-c-Kit antibodies (BioLegend). Biotinylated antibodies were detected with streptavidin-APC-Cy7 (BioLegend). Analysis and cell sorting were performed on a MoFlo using Summit software (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) and results were analyzed with FlowJo software (Tree Star, Ashland, OR).

Progenitor cells were enriched by depleting lineage-positive cells using magnetic cell sorting. Whole FL cells were incubated with biotin-labeled monoclonal antibodies: B220, CD3, Gr-1, and Ter119, all these antibodies are from mouse hematopoietic lineage biotin panel (88-7774-75, ebioscience).

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.
