Dietary Fiber Modulation in C57BL/6 Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Six- to eight-week-old C57BL/6 (B6) female mice were purchased from Charles River Laboratories (OrientBio). All mice were maintained under specific pathogen-free (SPF) conditions and each cage contained 3–5 mice. Mice were fed a normal chow diet (NCD) (6.0% crude fiber [Purina 5057], Purina), LCD (0.3% cellulose in AIN-93G, DooYeol Biotech), or HCD (30.0% cellulose in AIN-93G, DooYeol Biotech) (Figure S1).

Conditional Knockout Mice for Bcl6 and IL-21R

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female C57BL/6 (B6) mice were purchased from Charles River Laboratories (Bethesda, MD). Bcl6+/+;Cd4-Cre+ mice, Bcl6fl/fl;Cd4-Cre0 mice, and IL-21R−/− mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). Bcl6+/+;Cd4-Cre+ mice and Bcl6fl/fl; Cd4-Cre0 mice were bred for two generations to obtain Bcl6fl/fl; Cd4-Cre+ mice that lacked Bcl-6 expression in CD4+ cells and are referred to in the article as “ablated mice.” Littermates (Bcl6+/+; Cd4-Cre)+ that lacked floxed Bcl-6 but expressed Cre recombinase and those that expressed the floxed allele but lacked Cre expression (Bcl6fl/fl;Cd4-Cre0) were used as controls. Genotyping was carried out according to the protocol provided by The Jackson Laboratory for mouse stock numbers 023727 (Bcl6fl/fl) and 022071 (Cd4-Cre+). Validation of genotype and phenotype was as reported by us previously (13 (link)).

Murine B6 YUMM1.7 Tumor Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female C57BL/6 (B6) mice (6 to 8 weeks old) were purchased from Charles River. Mice were housed in specific pathogen–free conditions. All procedures were conducted in accordance with the UK Home Office Animals (Scientific Procedure) Act of 1986 and were approved by the UCL Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Body (PP4506002). Murine B6 YUMM1.7 tumor cells [American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) CRL-3362] were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)–F12, Hepes (Thermo Fisher Scientific, no. 11330032) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (iFBS, Merck, F7524-500ML), β-mercaptoethanol, 1% penicillin, streptomycin, l-glutamine, and nonessential minimal essential medium (MEM) amino acids (all Thermo Fisher Scientific or Sigma-Aldrich) according to ATCC recommendations. Cells were harvested with 0.05% EDTA (Thermo Fisher Scientific, no. 25300062) and counted before injection. Mice received 5 × 105 tumor cells injected intradermally into the shaved flank. Recipients were cohoused where possible.

Mouse Handling and Anesthesia Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female C57BL/6 (B6) mice aged 8–12 weeks were purchased from Charles River Laboratories. CD11c-eGFP/DTR mice also 8–12 weeks were gifted from the labs of Soman Abraham (Department of Pathology, Duke University) and Mari Shinohara (Department of Immunology, Duke University), which were originally purchased from Jackson Laboratory (stock no. 004509). Mice were housed in a specific pathogen-free environment at the Duke Eye Center animal facility. Anesthesia was used for all surgical procedures with i.p.-administered ketamine/xylazine suspensions (120 and 20 mg/kg, respectively).

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.
