The 8-μm frozen sections of cerebral cortex and cells were fixed, permeated with 0.3% Triton X-100, and blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin. Then, sections/cells were incubated with primary antibodies to CD16 (1:200, A13980, ABclonal), CD206 (1:100, ab195191, Abcam), and Iba 1 (1:100, A12391, ABclonal) overnight at 4°C, and incubated with corresponding fluorescent secondary antibodies (AS011 and AS007, ABclonal). Finally, images were captured under a confocal laser scanning microscope (FluoView FV10i, Olympus; 40 ×) in 3 randomly selected fields from each section (5 sections were randomly selected from each mouse). ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA) was adopted for cell counting and fluorescence intensity analysis.

Raw264.7 macrophages and BMDMs (1 × 106 cells/mL) were treated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ) at 20 ng/mL for 2 h. Da-g-Xan at 1, 5, or 20 μg/mL was added, and cells without Da-g-Xan were considered as controls. Twenty-four hours later, cells were collected and incubated with CD11b (0.25 μg/test, Invitrogen, 56-0112-82), CD86 (0.125 μg/test, Invitrogen, 12-0862-82) and CD206 (1 μg/mL, abcam, ab195191). Then, cells were measured using a BD FACSCalibur CellSorting System (BD Bioscience, USA) and analyzed with FlowJo software (Tree Star Inc, USA). This experiment was performed in triplicate. Dissected tissues from rat colonic anastomosis were washed with Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) for three times and minced into 1-2 mm pieces. The tissue pieces were digested with 2 mL GEXSCOPETM Tissue Dissociation Solution (Singleron, China), and the red blood cells were removed with 2 mL GEXSCOPETM red blood cell lysis buffer (Singleron, China). The resulting cells were stained with CD 206 (1 μg/mL, abcam, ab125028) with secondary donkey anti-rabbit antibodies (1 μg/mL, abcam, ab150075), CD11b (2 μg/mL, BD Biosciences, cat. 554862), CD86 (2.5 μg/mL, BD Biosciences, cat. 561961) and then measured using the CellSorting System.

The sections were treated with rat anti‐F4/80 (Ab6640; 1:50; Abcam, Shanghai, China), mouse anti‐CD86 (NBP2‐44515, 1:50; Novus, Shanghai, China), and rabbit anti‐CD206 (Ab195191, 1:50; Abcam) primary antibodies (15 hours, 4℃) followed by staining with Cy3‐labeled goat anti‐rat IgG (Bs‐0293G‐CY3; 1:100, Bioss, Beijing, China), FITC‐labeled goat anti‐mouse IgG (BA1101, 1:100; Boster Biological Technology Co, Ltd, Wuhan, China), and FITC‐labeled goat anti‐rabbit IgG (BA1105, 1:10; Boster Biological Technology Co, Ltd) secondary antibodies (1 hour, 20℃), respectively. The sections were then treated with 4,6‐diamino‐2‐phenylindole (DAPI, C1002; Beyotime Biotechnology Co Ltd, Wuhan, China) to stain the nuclei (5 minutes, 20℃). The proportion of M1 and M2 macrophages was evaluated using the mean optical density (MOD) as determined by the ImageJ analysis software.

Cells and skin tissue samples were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde overnight. Skin tissue samples underwent dehydration with 30% saccharose and were embedded in optimal cutting temperature compound (OCT) (Leica, Germany) and cut into 10-μm-thick sections. The cells and sections underwent permeabilization with 0.05% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 10 min at room temperature, blockage with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) at 37 °C for 30 min, and incubation with the primary antibody overnight at 4 °C. Next, the sections were incubated with fluorescence secondary antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) at room temperature for 1 h. Lastly, the nuclei were counterstained by Hoechst 33342 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 10 min at room temperature. Photographs were taken by a confocal microscope and evaluated by ImageJ software. The primary antibodies involved in this study include F4/80 (1:200, ab6640, monoclonal), Cytokeratin 14 (1:400, ab181595, monoclonal), CD206 (1:200, ab195191, monoclonal), and Ki67 (1:150, ab16667, monoclonal) (all from Abcam, UK).

To determine the cell quantity of different phenotypes after indicated treatment, harvested cell suspensions were incubated Alexa Fluor® 488 mouse monoclonal antibody to CD86 (Abcam, ab256270) and Alexa Fluor® 488 rabbit monoclonal antibody to CD206 (Abcam, ab195191). Cells were washed, re‐suspended in FACS buffer, and detected by flow cytometer (CytoFLEX S, Beckman Coulter, USA). Non‐specific binding was assessed using isotype‐matched antibodies.

Cells were cultured with medium added recombinant mouse IL-4 (100 ng/mL, R&D System, USA) or recombinant TNF-α (10 ng/mL, R&D System, USA) for six hours and incubated with TPNs, RTPNs or manRTPNs for 3 hours. Afterward, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 10 minutes, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 10 minutes, blocked with 1% BSA for 1 hour and labeled with 2 µg/mL anti-mannose receptor/AF488 conjugated antibody (ab195191, Abcam) and rabbit anti-CD2/AF488 conjugated antibody (bs-2899R, Bioss) for 3 hours at room temperature. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. All manipulation must be away from light. The images were captured under confocal microscopy (Leica, TCS SP5).

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.
