BMDCs were obtained by washing the tibiae and femurs of mice with cold PBS and separating cells using a 70-μm cell strainer. The cells were seeded in a 24-well plate (106 cells/well) with conditioned medium (RPMI with 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 10% FBS, glutamine, 1% HEPES, 1% sodium pyruvate, 1% non-essential amino acids, and 50μM β-mercaptoethanol) supplemented with GM-CSF (20 ng/mL, R&D Systems), or GM-CSF VLPs (LD + GM-CSF + 4-1BBL or LD + GM-CSF + OX40L, 5 × 109 particle/mL), and IL-4 (20 ng/mL, R&D Systems). The cells were characterized by flow cytometry labeling surface markers CD11c (FITC anti-mouse CD11c, BioLegend), MHC class II (PE anti-mouse MHC II, BioLegend) and CD86 (APC anti-mouse CD86, BioLegend). The data were analyzed using the ACEA NovoCyte 2000 flow cytometer.

Dendritic Cell Analysis in Murine Spleen and Tumor

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Dendritic cells number was determined in the spleens and tumor tissues by flow cytometry (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). The sacrificed mice were soaked in 75% alcohol for 10 minutes and spleens and tumor mass of approximately 5 × 5 mm were collected. Spleens were mechanically dissociated in culture dish and dissociated cells were filtered through a 200-mesh sieve (Solarbio science & technology Co. Ltd. Beijing, China). Splenocytes single-cell suspensions were prepared from each mouse after red blood cells lysis. Tumor tissues were incubated in 1 mL trypsinization buffer at 37°C for 40 minutes after mechanical dissociation. Medium containing serum was added to terminate the tumor tissues digestion and dissociated cells were filtered through a 0.3-μm filter. Subsequently, cells were counted and stained using PE anti-mouse CD11c (1:100, Biolegend, San Diego, CA) to select dendritic cells, FITC anti-mouse CD80 (1:50, Biolegend) or APC anti-mouse CD86 (1:100, Biolegend) to distinguish mature dendritic cells from the immature ones. PE Armenian Hamster IgG (1:100, Biolegend), FITC Armenian Hamster IgG (1:50, Biolegend) and APC Rat IgG2a (1:100, Biolegend) were used as isotype controls.

DC maturation was evaluated by analyzing the expression level of CD86 on the cell surface [19 (link)]. BMDC were seeded in 24-well plates (1 × 105 cells/well), incubated for 24 h, and treated with various nanoparticle formulations at a PIC dose of 5 μg for 24 h. The cells were harvested and stained with FITC-anti-mouse CD11c and APC-anti-mouse CD86 (BioLegend) antibodies for 1 h. For CD11c analysis, the excitation and emission wavelengths used for flow cytometry of FITC were 495 and 519 nm, respectively. For CD86 analysis, the excitation and emission wavelengths used for flow cytometry of APC were 650 and 660 nm, respectively. The expression of CD86 was analyzed using a BD FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Bioscience). The expression of surface markers on DC was determined by gating the CD11c+ population.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples were collected, minced, and digested with α-MEM containing 10% FBS in the presence of collagenase I and collagenase II at 37 ​°C for 1 ​h. Digested material was filtered with the 70-um strainer and the filtrate was centrifuged at 300 ​g for 5 ​min. Next, the collected cells were fixed, permeabilized, and blocked with CD16/32 antibody (Biolegend, CA, USA) on ice for 10 ​min. To determine JAK/STAT activation in macrophages, the cells were incubated with FITC anti-mouseF4/80 (Biolegend) and primary antibody anti-Phospho-Jak1 (Bioss, Beijing, China), anti-Phospho-JAK3 (Affinity, Jiangsu, China) or anti-Phospho-STAT6 (Abcam, Cambridge, Uk) on ice for 30 ​min, subsequently incubated with Alexa-Fluor 647 (Abcam) conjugated secondary antibody on ice for additional 30 ​min. To evaluate macrophages’ phenotype, these cells were stained with FITC anti-mouse F4/80, APC anti-mouse CD86, and PE anti-mouse CD206 antibody (all from Biolegend) on ice for 30 ​min. Cells that were not treated with any antibody were used as negative controls. The cells were then washed twice to remove excess antibodies, resuspended in 100ul PBS containing 5% FBS, and analyzed by a BD FACSCanto II (New Jersey, USA)

Macrophage Polarization Markers Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The polarization-related surface markers of RAW264.7, MH-S, and THP-1 macrophages were detected by flow cytometry. In our previous study (5 (link)), we found that 10 μg/ml CSE-EVs could significantly promote M1 polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages, thus we treated macrophages (5×104 cells/cm2) with 10 μg/mL EVs in EVs-free RPMI 1640 mediums for 24 h in this study. For positive control, 2 μM SF1670 and 1 μM AG14361 were used to inhibit PTEN and PAPR1 expression of THP-1 cells, respectively. Then, the cells were collected and stained with the following antibodies on ice for 20 min in the dark. APC anti-mouse CD86, APC anti-mouse CD80, APC anti-human CD11b, PE anti-human CD86, and PE anti-human CD80 (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) were used in this procedure. After being washed twice with PBS, cells were fixed with fixation buffer and then analyzed by flow cytometry (CytoFLEX, Beckman).

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.
