The spleen tissue was aseptically removed and prepared into a single-cell suspension. For Th17 (CD3+CD4+IL17A+) cells and Treg cells (CD3+CD4+ CD25 + FOXP3+) detection, the cells were stimulated by cocktail A for 4 h (BD, Cat# 550583). Samples were then washed and re-suspended in 1 × PBS stained with FVS 780 (BD, Cat#565388) to discriminate viable cells and then incubated with various surface markers. Consequently, samples were fixed by eBioscience Fix/Perm (Cat#00-5523-00) or BD Fix/Perm buffer kit (Cat#554714) to destroy the cell membrane and then were stained with FOXP3 (eBioscience, Cat#17-5773-82), IL-17A (BD, Cat# 564169). In the study, CD3 (BD, Cat# 557,666), CD4 (BD, Cat# 552,775) and CD25 (BD, Cat# 558642) were used. Finally, samples were analyzed with the LSR Fortessa cell analyzer (BD) and BD FACSDiva 8.0.3 software.

Flow cytometry was conducted on a BD LSRFortessa (BD Biosciences) and the data were further analyzed using FlowJo software (Treestar Inc.). Cells were stimulated in RPMI 1640 with 10% FBS (Lonza) and 2 μL of leukocyte activation cocktail With GolgiPlug (BD Bioscience) for 6 h at 37°C. The live cells were discriminated by Fixable Viability Stain 780 (Biolegend). Cell surfaces were stained at 4°C for 30 min with appropriate fluorescence-labeled antibodies against CD3, CD4, and TCRβ (BD Biosciences). After the fixation and permeabilization using cytofix-cytoperm (BD Biosciences), intracellular cytokines were stained using appropriate fluorescence-labeled antibodies to interferon γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-17A (IL-17A) (BD Biosciences) for 30 min at 4°C.

After single cell preparation from the tumor cells as well as control kidneys as described above, CD4 + T cells isolated and were differentiated into Th1, Th2, and Th17 lineages. For intracellular cytokine analysis, cells were restimulated with 500 ng/ml of ionomycin and 50 ng/ml of PMA in the presence of Golgi Stop (BD Pharmingen) for 5 hr. Cells were then permeabilized with Cytofix/Cytoperm Kit (BD PharMingen) and analyzed for the expression of IL-4,IL-5,IL-9,IL-13, IL-17A or IFN-g (BD Pharming) by FACSCalibur analysis.

Collagenase digestion of mouse lung tissue was previously described in 30 (link). In short, mice were euthanized by CO2 asphyxiation after which perfusion was carried out by injecting 3–5 mL of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) through the right ventricle of the heart. Lungs were resected, minced with scissors, and digested in complete DMEM containing 15 mg/mL collagenase A (Roche, Indianapolis, IN), and 2500 units of DNase I (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) for 30 m at 37°C. Digested tissue was disrupted through a 10 mL syringe, filtered through a 100 μM pore size nytex screen and centrifuged through a 20 % Percoll solution in serum free media. 10x106 cells were then stained with appropriately diluted fluorophore-conjugated antibodies for 30 m. For intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) cells were diluted to 1x106/mL and stimulated for 4 h with PMA (10 ng / mL), ionomycin (10 μM), and Golgi-stop reagent (BD Bioscience, San Jose, CA). Antibodies used in this study are as follows: anti-CD45, CD11b, CD4, IL-17A, MHCII (I-Ab), CD103, SiglecF (BD Bioscience, San Jose, CA), CD11c, IFNγ (eBioscience San Diego, CA), DLL1, DLL4, Jagged1, Jagged2, and CD64 (Biolegend, San Diego, CA).

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.
